LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — You may not show it but you’re sensitive enough to know that something’s going on. Don’t press people for more than they’re willing to give. You’ll get nowhere if you try to force yourself on this situation.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — If you assume that you’re doing the best you can, it’s safe to say that others might be trying just as hard. The one who appears to be freeloading is there to teach you more about what it means to give and receive.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) — So much of who you are is what you see reflected in the eyes of other people. It’s high time you got away. Too much has changed. More than ever, a retreat or some time alone would do a lot to help you get your bearings.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) — Everyone knows how you feel. Belaboring the point won’t make it clearer and not making a choice won’t make the need to choose disappear any time soon. If you want to do something about this, you better do it now.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) — The tendency to overlook the obvious when it comes to giving other people the upper hand will continue to screw things up, until you decide that isn’t your job to patch up anything that was broken to begin with.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — You aren’t as sure about why this had to happen as you are about the fact that it came to save the day. Cross your fingers. With any luck recent miracles could turn your life into the better part of a dream come true.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) — You can say whatever you want. You’re not over this, no matter how good you are at pretending you’ve moved on. The real test will come at a gathering or a blast from the past where key players decide to have it out.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 19) — If you’re waiting for someone to come along and give you permission to go for it, you can only do that for yourself. Don’t worry so much about who you have to answer to or let anyone be your excuse for missing the boat.

ARIES (March 20-April 18) — You went over the top with this, but who cares? It’s taught you a lot about trusting your gut. Others are shocked. If they don’t know what to make of it, don’t worry. They’ll see the light sooner or later.

TAURUS (April 19-May 20) — You’ve got to take a few risks if you want things to change. The tried and true methods that kept everything running up until now won’t work to remedy a situation that could use a complete overhaul.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) — Your life just opened up in ways that seem close to miraculous. Stop pinching yourself and look around; there’s a whole new script and a whole new cast waiting for you to start directing this movie.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) — You’ll need the wisdom of Solomon to figure this one out. The truth has been too well hidden. Don’t expect to come up with the answer until everyone involved comes forward with their version of the story.
