Cancer (June 21-July 22): Those you’re dealing with may be set in their ways or act unpredictably, patience will be key. Notice if a few of your own choices don’t align with sound judgment, either.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Trust your instincts and stay alert. Consider when to follow the rules and when to forge your own path. Avoid risky moves, even if ideas seem exciting or you’re eager to please someone.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You may hesitate to support a cause due to a packed schedule. Hold off on launching new projects or fundraising efforts until the timing feels right. A family member or colleague could disrupt your plans with unexpected actions or words.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Ideas may begin to dawn after a night, or a few nights, of mental fog. If you feel ready to act on your thoughts, start moving toward your goals. Take full advantage of today’s mental clarity to assess and firm up plans.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Be mindful of your limits, especially when it comes to money. Without discipline, you could overspend or agree to something you might regret. Dream big but focus on goals that are within reach. Don’t let small frustrations lead to overreactions.
