The coming week is likely to see a great number of individuals arranging matters so that their efforts to make a dream come true are optimized and the chances of reaching that unique and special goal at least doubled and perhaps tripled. If this makes it sound like something that is whimsical and fanciful is taking on a businesslike or even scientific character, so be it -- for that is what it will take to make things happen that are special and memorable and certainly out of the ordinary.
Time spent with friends and loved ones may seem, at first, to be time wasted when there is so much to be done, but this is a mistaken and perhaps dangerous notion! Connection with those who are closest will prove instrumental as goals are neared, and interpersonal dynamics will surely take on renewed importance this week in direct proportion to the risks one takes.
ARIES (March 21-April 4) -- Putting yourself first makes all the sense in the world at this time, but doing it is more difficult than you may think as others require your assistance. (April 5-April 19) -- A pattern of behavior that doesn't seem to be working for you anymore is easily cast off this week -- provided you have something to fill the void almost immediately!
TAURUS (April 20-May 5) -- The familiar may play funny tricks on you this week, and your perception may be skewed as a result. It may be time simply to do what others tell you! (May 6-May 20) -- You're likely to stumble on an unusual opportunity this week that you will want to explore fully without restrictions. You'll have to talk this over with a loved one.
GEMINI (May 21-June 6) -- You're going to want to pay close attention to the reactions you get from others this week, as that may be the only indicator of success you can rely on. (June 7-June 20) -- Give others what they ask for as quickly as possible throughout the week, even if it means putting one of your own projects on a back burner. You'll be glad you did!
CANCER (June 21-July 7) -- You may require much more information this week in order to wrap your head around a situation that you must control -- or it will control you. (July 8-July 22) -- Your interaction with someone who doesn't understand all the ins and outs of a certain situation you're in may prove frustrating; try a new tack each day this week.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 7) -- You don't have to dig quite as deeply as usual this week to come up with the important bits of information that will enrich your week. Storm clouds loom. (Aug. 8-Aug. 22) -- You're eager to get to the bottom of a situation that has been affecting you indirectly for some time, as it may become more immediately problematic this week.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 7) -- You have more work to do on a pet project before you can let it slide into another's hands for a while. This week your priorities -- and strategies -- are clear. (Sept. 8-Sept. 22) -- You may discover, quite by surprise, that a problem you thought had been solved is resurfacing. This week others may be pulled into it because of a simple misstep.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 7) -- Now is the time for you to make clear your intentions to another and to lay down the law as far as your interaction goes. The week mustn't get away from you! (Oct. 8-Oct. 22) -- Someone is trying to make their own problems yours -- but the reason is unclear. You may have to do some digging this week before you understand the whole situation.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 7) -- Your dreams are sure to intermingle liberally this week with the realities you're having to face head-on. This is certainly not a lose-lose situation! (Nov. 8-Nov. 21) -- It may be time to make someone aware of a situation you are facing this week, as it's likely not something you can deal with on your own from this time forth.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 7) -- Timing is of the essence this week, and you must be sure that you arrange all business so that you are front and center when you feel you should be. (Dec. 8-Dec. 21) -- The week progresses in a zigzag sort of manner and requires you to navigate a tortuous course in the style of one who does it every day. You'll surely be challenged.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 6) -- You are weighing the expectations of others with your own needs and desires, and you may find it difficult to balance them successfully. (Jan. 7-Jan. 19) -- The answer to your most pressing questions lies in interpretation: Are you judging things accurately? You may want to bounce things off of a friend who will answer you truthfully.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 3) -- There is an element of showing off in what you want to do this week, so you mustn't shy away from it. Your performance is on point, despite what critics say. (Feb. 4-Feb. 18) -- You're likely to be caught off guard early in the week, and what you do in response is almost certain to reap surprising rewards as the week comes to an unusual close.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 5) -- You'll want to take regular breaks throughout the week to ensure that you do not run perilously short of resources, of whatever kind they may be. (March 6-March 20) -- You seem to have an answer for everything, but you'll find that is not the case when you encounter a situation that doesn't fit any of your preconceived notions.
