The coming week will ask more of everyone in the way of understanding, tolerance and empathy than they are used to. This will benefit not only those who are more fairly treated as a result, but also those who begin treating others better, for they will gain in ways they had not previously imagined. There is a kind of calm that comes with acceptance and tolerance, and that will be the most common reward for those who choose to treat their fellow human as they themselves wish to be treated: The golden rule yields tremendous rewards for all. Those who insist that manners, courtesy, patience and the like must take a back seat to commodity, profit and other forms of material gain will certainly be missing out; they may well make some financial gains, but they're not likely to be happy this week -- nor will they understand why.

There is much to be learned from youngsters. Watching the young embrace whatever comes with enthusiasm and wonder may seem, to some, to be the overly simplistic behavior of a Pollyanna, but those who sincerely embrace such an attitude will discover that a childlike outlook can circumvent a world of bad feelings.

ARIES (March 21-April 4) -- The guidance you should give others is the kind that you will want to get when you are in over your head, but that won't happen anytime soon. (April 5-April 19) -- Your needs, and the needs of a loved one, may put the two of you in contact in a way that surprises you both. Think about quality, not quantity.

TAURUS (April 20-May 5) -- You can do the right thing without giving it a thought. Indeed, thinking too much can keep you from correct action. (May 6-May 20) -- You have much to accomplish, but most such tasks are of your own choosing. Tend to critical duties first, then you may spend more time having fun!

GEMINI (May 21-June 6) -- You may be criticized for something that you chose not to do recently, but there will be time for you to go back and give it a try. (June 7-June 20) -- You may find yourself in an awkward position when the demands you make on a friend warrant a reaction that you are not at all prepared for.

CANCER (June 21-July 7) -- Issues of power must not lead to questions of conquest. You can get along with everyone and still retain control over your destiny. (July 8-July 22) -- Too many things require your attention as the week opens, and you may struggle to keep your head above water. Later on, a friend can throw you a lifeline.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 7) -- You may have questions that must be answered before you can do anything of real substance. Be ready for action at any moment. (Aug. 8-Aug. 22) -- You are a fan of someone who is bringing you many new ideas. Perhaps you can begin working more closely together before the week is over.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 7) -- Your understanding is bound to change somewhat, making it impossible for you to know as much as you thought. This can make things fun, however! (Sept. 8-Sept. 22) -- You and a partner must be sure that you are both working toward the same result as the week opens; too much can go awry if you are not.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 7) -- You must remember the difference between what you can and cannot control. You'll jump at an opportunity when it arises. (Oct. 8-Oct. 22) -- Someone you admire is likely to give you a boost, sending you off on a new and exciting trajectory. What happens next is entirely up to you.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 7) -- You'll be able to wrap things up and move on very soon, but in the meantime you must cater to another's whim as you look to the future. (Nov. 8-Nov. 21) -- Your imagination will be on fire throughout the week. You can come up with many ideas that others will want to run with -- if only you let them!

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 7) -- You can double or triple your rewards by simply doing the right thing at the right time. It's really no mystery. (Dec. 8-Dec. 21) -- You may have to come up with new calculations in order to be sure that a plan can succeed. Certain technical issues may have to be rethought.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 6) -- You may have to rub someone's back a little harder to get what you want out of him or her -- but it should be worth it. (Jan. 7-Jan. 19) -- Breaking the rules is not an option, but perhaps you can work some of your particular magic by bending them ever so slightly. You may be watched.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 3) -- You may discover that you're not likely to fit in, no matter what you do. This only means that you can go your own way with confidence. (Feb. 4-Feb. 18) -- You may have to approach a certain problem from the "wrong" end. Try to envision a solution, and work your way back toward possible actions.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 5) -- You mustn't let yourself get embroiled in a conflict that is the result of someone else's obsession. You needn't carry that burden. (March 6-March 20) -- You may have to figure out ways for home to come to you if you are unable to get yourself home. Much will depend on a decision made by a superior.

Your Stars This Week for September 17, 2017

Your Stars This Week | September 17th, 2017

The coming week will require of most individuals a higher level of circumspection, sensitivity and overall awareness of surroundings and dynamics than usual, as situations arise that may possibly put relationships to the test and bring out both the best and worst in those involved. It's essential that no one act prematurely upon receiving only partial information; one must have the whole story before devising a plan in response! Acting on incomplete intelligence is sure to cause difficulties -- especially when someone tries to step in and solve a problem that really never existed in the first place! The week ahead is likely to prove difficult enough for many without having others make things worse through reckless and irresponsible behavior -- even if it is well-meaning and well-intentioned!

Some may be asked to do the impossible, and some will display a level of responsibility that is extraordinary, but necessary to the overall success of some venture or other. Wherever something new is being tried, extreme patience and tolerance will be required of almost everyone, and any natural tendency to overreact in such situations must be controlled at all times.

ARIES (March 21-April 4) -- You may think that everything will fall into place as planned, but what really happens will prove far more challenging. (April 5-April 19) -- You don't want to be one of those who is left in the dust because you didn't follow your own advice. Be sure to do what you know to be right -- every time!

TAURUS (April 20-May 5) -- You'll want to pick up the pace, but you mustn't sacrifice accuracy or safety. It may not be time to collect rewards just yet. (May 6-May 20) -- You have more at stake than you had originally counted on, but that doesn't mean you can't rise to the occasion and make everything turn out well.

GEMINI (May 21-June 6) -- You may have to step in and help someone who has been left behind. He or she may need more than the usual pat on the back. (June 7-June 20) -- You will be in a position to protect someone who doesn't recognize the dangers that are all around. Let experience show the way.

CANCER (June 21-July 7) -- You can experiment with novel ways of acting or talking, but you can't expect everyone to approve of all your new choices. (July 8-July 22) -- You may have to face a certain fear head-on, recognizing that this is the only way you can have what you most want. You can do it!

LEO (July 23-Aug. 7) -- Not everything is fun and games; some situations will require you to adopt a far more serious tone. Be sensitive to another's needs! (Aug. 8-Aug. 22) -- Someone will come to you with a problem that makes you realize that you are not as fully prepared to face the future as you had thought. It's time to learn a new lesson.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 7) -- You'll be able to look at certain situations quite imaginatively, trying different approaches that are usually not considered. (Sept. 8-Sept. 22) -- You may find yourself entirely on your own for a time, and that suits you just fine! You can get a lot done -- and come up with a new plan, too.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 7) -- It may seem too early to some, but you know that what's coming requires you to begin preparing now. Start with small things. (Oct. 8-Oct. 22) -- If you're planning a trip, you'll want to know how best to economize before and during so that you will still have what you need afterward.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 7) -- Unforeseen circumstances may require you to join forces with a surprising new set of allies, and you'll have little time to get up to speed. (Nov. 8-Nov. 21) -- You can combine courage with sensitivity and avoid hurting anyone's feelings even as you do and say things that are by no means conventional.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 7) -- Challenges that arise will have you eager for more -- provided that you have stocked up on all necessary resources. (Dec. 8-Dec. 21) -- Someone is expecting you to be there as promised, but how are you going to explain that you've had a change of heart? Approach this delicately!

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 6) -- A project you've laid out with great care may have trouble getting off the ground if you've overlooked even one tiny detail. (Jan. 7-Jan. 19) -- You'll want to learn all you can about something new so that you are in the best possible place to respond correctly to what is coming up in the near future.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 3) -- You mustn't allow yourself to overindulge. You have to maintain discipline in order to avoid certain potentially dangerous setbacks. (Feb. 4-Feb. 18) -- You may feel as though you are repeating yourself, but there are subtle differences that make this week quite different from the last in many ways.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 5) -- Surprises will come to you from all around, and you'll have to choose which ones to focus on. Surely you can't face them all at once! (March 6-March 20) -- You may be visited by an old friend who comes to you in disguise. What is he or she trying to hide from you? That's the question you'll have to answer!

Your Stars This Week for September 10, 2017

Your Stars This Week | September 10th, 2017

The coming week will require from most individuals a healthy mix of forethought and hindsight, as many are putting together puzzles that demand a far clearer understanding than usual of all that affects the present. Indeed, that present will itself be, in ways much more significant than usual, a combination of what has gone before and what is yet to come. Regardless of the time frame, all must be willing and able to see themselves in the proper light -- and that light is one that is shone most brightly by those who have led the way in the past and who will most likely do so again.

Yes, the relationship between leaders and followers will be keenly important throughout this busy, complex week, and those who are bent on seeing equality reign are almost certain to be disappointed. Progress depends on each and every individual playing his or her proper role, and understanding how everyone fits into the scheme of things -- past, future and present. There is no room for self-deception!

ARIES (March 21-April 4) -- You're eager to be back on the scene after taking some time off. You'll know whether you're ready or not after only a few preliminary moves. (April 5-April 19) -- You can expect to have more luck than usual, especially when it comes to required activities that you are not willing to shirk.

TAURUS (April 20-May 5) -- You're likely to have things just as you want them later in the week, but this all depends on how you use the first two or three days. (May 6-May 20) -- A chance encounter can put you in the spotlight earlier than expected. If this is what you want, you can surely make the most of it. If not -- then what?

GEMINI (May 21-June 6) -- You'll want to collaborate with only the best -- but whom, exactly, does that include? You may have to broaden the scope of your search. (June 7-June 20) -- You can have much that you desire, but only if you are willing to give up the one thing that you value above almost all else. What will you do?

CANCER (June 21-July 7) -- You can return to a place of great meaning and import to you. What you do there can make a big difference in the lives of others. (July 8-July 22) -- You're in the mood to explore new territory, but you don't yet want to make a commitment, even if you find something that really seems to suit you.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 7) -- One thing leads to another, putting you in a position that you could have anticipated if you had paid attention to all the clues. (Aug. 8-Aug. 22) -- You will want to heed a warning offered to you by a friend who has "been there, done that." An unusual trait may come to the fore before the week is out.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 7) -- You mustn't shy away from an analysis that points to something more complicated than you first expected. Immerse yourself in the facts. (Sept. 8-Sept. 22) -- You may not understand just how someone is trying to steer you in a different direction, but your resistance can help keep you from breaking stride.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 7) -- You will have to gather more information in order to formulate answers to the questions you are sure to be asked. Be diligent! (Oct. 8-Oct. 22) -- You will want to put two and two together so that you are not fooled when you are faced with an otherwise implausible situation.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 7) -- The explanation you'll receive from an ally early in the week will leave you wondering if you ever really knew much about him or her. Investigate! (Nov. 8-Nov. 21) -- You can share much with someone who is actually very different from you in several significant ways. Celebrate what you have in common!

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 7) -- You will have to get started on a new project as early as possible if you expect to match the progress made by a rival. (Dec. 8-Dec. 21) -- You don't really have all the facts, but you certainly can make an accurate guess about why certain things are happening the way they are -- and when.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 6) -- Your week may not start quickly, but once you take a step in a new direction, you'll be expected to pick up the pace. Others are keeping track. (Jan. 7-Jan. 19) -- Records kept in the past may not be enough. The interpretation of those facts and figures is likely to make all the difference.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 3) -- A nostalgic reverie will make you realize that things are not quite as you had hoped they would be -- but you can make a key change. (Feb. 4-Feb. 18) -- You'll sense that there are double meanings all around. You must interpret them, and the speed with which you do so may matter a great deal.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 5) -- Routine endeavors may fill you with much-needed comfort throughout the first part of the week, giving you what you need to excel later on. (March 6-March 20) -- Now is the time for you to gather your forces and prepare for a final push toward a major goal. Surround yourself with just the right supporters.
