Aries

 

If you're accused of selfishness at some point in the first half of the week -- or if it suddenly dawns on you that you're being selfish -- the easiest fix is to turn the glow of your attention onto someone else. Think about them. Do them a favor they didn't ask for. Be charming. By Thursday, you register your own growth as a person. It's a slow process, a lifelong process, but a sense of renewal is definitely within you on Friday. The laziness you feel at the end of the week contrasts sharply with the million-miles-an-hour mode you're in on the weekend.

The laziness you feel at the end of the week contrasts sharply with the million-miles-an-hour mode you're in on the weekend.

 

Gemini

 

You're busy this week -- especially the first half. Action, romance, partnerships and new projects all come into play. Those new projects may not all pan out the way you'd like them to, but your talent right now is simply getting things started, so don't worry. Thursday and Friday find you more calculating -- you're taking measure of your life and work, asking tough question of good friends and reading heavy books. But the weekend is filled with plans and pals. On Sunday, watch your dogmatic streak. No one (not even you) wants to be preached to.

 

Cancer

 

You may be in the mood to buy a new stove, or repaint the kitchen, or go in a new direction with the layout of the garden. But have you considered that what's really getting under your skin has nothing to do with the kitchen or the garden? If something's bothering you at home, deal with it directly. That's easier said than done, of course. Thursday is defined by emotional upheaval, and Friday you're basically useless at work, what with all that's on your mind. Saturday and Sunday, get out of the house. Why not take yourself to the movies?

 

Leo

 

'You plus friends' is a winning combination on Monday. Tuesday and Wednesday as well -- whether it's you or them or something in the air that none of you has anything to do with, you seem almost psychically connected this week. Your romantic life is active, too. Your needs are being met in just about every realm. It's only natural that on Thursday you begin to think deeply about this state of happiness, such as where it comes from and how to maintain it. On Friday, your thinking is concentrated on thwarting the efforts of plotters, but your attitude is unchanging. The weekend is out of a storybook.

 

 

Virgo

 

If you're going to the store at the start of the week, bring a friend. Your shopping is best done with a partner right now. You may need some advice, or you may go in on a big purchase together. The benefits of the shopping excursion also may have nothing to do with the shopping itself. A conversation with a pal on Wednesday about the difference between the things you want and the things you need sets you up to be in deep-thinking mode on Thursday and Friday. This weekend, if you're feeling stuck, take a risk.

 

Libra

 

You'll blush so many times between Monday morning and Wednesday afternoon that someone may ask you (jokingly) if you're having an allergic reaction to something. What is it that makes everyone want to flirt with you right now? Is it your sly smile? Your shoes? Your social life is in tip-top shape until around Thursday, when work woes weigh you down. Business matters figure strongly on Friday as well. Maybe you're making up for all that time you spent in coffee shops earlier in the week. On Saturday and Sunday, you finally achieve a nice balance between what you have to do and what you want to do.

 

Scorpio

 

You could go either way. You can see both sides. You'd love a lot of toppings on your ice cream, but ordering it without toppings has an appealing simplicity as well. You're in love with so-and-so; you're not in love. Sheesh! How do people make decisions in this world? Have patience. Toward the second half of the week, an amazing thing happens: Many answers become apparent. They reveal themselves. You barely have to decide anything. The people you're drawn to are suddenly drawn to you. Chalk it up to chemistry. This weekend, caught up in the magic, you may go on an unlikely adventure.

 

Sagittarius

 

You need some time to think things through. You need to prepare for what you're getting into. The major message broadcasted during the first half of the week is that you're loved by your friends. But that doesn't solve your career-related quandaries. On Wednesday, the law (or a lawyer, or justice itself) comes into play in some way. Thursday and Friday, you're contemplating the big picture in a nonspecific, hard-to-articulate way. Your subconscious is going crazy. But by Saturday and Sunday, the atmosphere of the weekend takes over, and joviality and lightness dominate.

 

Capricorn

 

You're well aware of what everyone else thinks. The pressing question at the start of the week is: What do you think? There couldn't be a better period of time to initiate new projects than Tuesday and Wednesday. But if you're unclear on what you want, how will you get it? What should the shape of your next project be? Friends might help you with this. Pay someone a visit on Thursday -- go for a walk or possibly bowling -- and talk it through. On Friday, your deepest hopes suddenly seem clear, and you have the resources you need to make them come to fruition. Take this weekend to plan.

 

Aquarius

 

Your new ally may come in a funny disguise at the start of the week. It may be a zombie outfit or a pumpkin costume. It may not be the season for masquerade parties, but everyone's wearing some kind of mask right now. Go outside of your comfort zone and try to connect with someone you almost assuredly have nothing in common with; you may be surprised how wrong you are. The energy you get from this burgeoning friendship will have you buzzing on Wednesday. Thursday or Friday, you're required to say something in front of a group, which has you completely nervous. Saturday and Sunday are a blast.

 

Pisces

 

People are crazy. Just when you feel like you and you-know-who are going to take over the world together -- in a peaceful, wonderful way -- they flake out on you. They become distracted. Their reasons may be valid, but the truth remains: If you want something, it's on your own shoulders to make it happen. You can handle that. You have great shoulders. Toward the second half of the week, your resolve strengthens even more, and you take someone who's treating you like a doormat to the curb. You do it smiling. You're a pro. This weekend, things finally start going your way.
