Aries (March 21-April 19): There is no benefit to giving too much, especially if you’re giving it to the wrong people. Give to those who need the offering. Give the amount they need. That’s how your energy becomes a gift, not a drain, and the exchange leaves everyone stronger.

Taurus (April 20-May 20): What you had to do to manage people in your life who are not so easy to manage has given you a set of emotional skills and a special level of intelligence that helps you in other areas of life. It’s a part of your competitive edge today.

Gemini (May 21-June 21): You’ve always known what people aren’t saying, but you don’t always listen to it because it’s so much work and it really doesn’t matter all the time. It certainly doesn’t matter today. You’re clear. You’re purposeful. They’ll work out their own thoughts; you stay on track with yours.

Cancer (June 22-July 22): What makes love real? It is, after all, just a feeling. But it’s a feeling that can alter your chemical design in the moment. It’s detectable in its effect. What about how it lifts you, feeds you, brings light in a place that hasn’t had enough of it? Revel in moments of real joy.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Life isn’t a new jigsaw puzzle you have to put together. It’s an old jigsaw puzzle in a recycled coffee can because the box is lost, and you’re not even sure all the pieces are all there, but you go at it anyway, and the picture is coming together.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Your job isn’t to keep everyone around you in a constant state of approval — it’s to model strength, discernment and the truth that you are not an on-demand service. You’re a human. A spectacular, devoted, busy and wildly creative human.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): No matter how a thing seems on paper, life doesn’t happen there, books do. Put all theories aside and pay attention to how things feel for you in real time. A task that’s meaningful, whether work or play, will bring you joy.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): In a sense everyone is some kind of “middleman,” and there’s no shame in it. You are connected to people who have and also to people who need. To bridge the two while also getting what you need out of the situation is the holy work of the day.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Empathy sharpens your vision. You read the room before the words start flying. You catch the glance, the shift, the tension. It’s not time to react yet. You may not even need to react at all. Your steadiness will set a tone. Just wait.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You’ve been someone’s example — for better or worse. It’s fun to be the hero. It’s not so fun to be an example of what not to do, but at least you know you’re in the game, brave, influential, part of how we all move forward.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You’ll be free of dangerous tunnel vision because you ask for feedback. A friend who plays devil’s advocate will be crucial to the success of a plan, allowing you to see what your audience will, and especially the doubters. You’ll find the full range, the right scale and more.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): The way you think about yourself is far more critical than how others see you. They’re not picking you apart. In fact, most are far more accepting than you imagine. Every little bit of perfectionism you let go of makes room for more joy.

Today’s birthday (July 14): It’s a year of contributing to something bigger than yourself and feeling your significance and belonging inside it. You’ll lead with a style so natural, people won’t realize they’re following — they’ll just want to be near you. More highlights: What you design gets used, shared and remembered. You’ll master a financial rhythm akin to freedom. You’ll take an unforgettable trip to meet inspiring people. Pisces and Libra adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 4, 40, 7, 13 and 21.
