The Venus change reminds us that happiness isn’t a one-size-fits-all experience — it shifts depending on context and needs. Among the different ways happiness can manifest today: a room full of people you love (because connections are a source of joy), a room full of people you don’t know yet (because potential encounters are exciting) or a room full of just you (because there’s nothing like the glorious solitude of commanding your own space and time).

ARIES (March 21-April 19). With all you’re balancing, intentional breaks could be the key to sustaining your momentum. Even short ones, like a quiet walk, a day to recharge or a moment of solitude, could make a huge difference.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Even the hard-boiled pragmatist you know will soften and bend to your whimsical charms — because, bottom line, you’re fun. Life’s just more interesting when you let that carefree part of yourself take the lead.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). No matter how well you think you know someone, there’s always more to discover. New people entering the scene will act as catalysts, revealing different sides of those you thought you knew well.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). You’re not ready to tackle the problem just yet — at least, not in action. But in thought, you’re making major strides. This is a crucial stage! Your strategic brainstorming and inspired notions will be nothing short of brilliant.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’ll find yourself in a position to give intuitive service — a spontaneous, unplanned act of attention that makes a difference. Caring about a person’s preferences and how they need things done suggests deep presence, empathy and a rare kind of generosity.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You’re not avoiding on purpose — your mind’s just trying to keep you safe. Distraction is fear in disguise, a clever excuse fear uses to stop you from committing to what you really want. Breathe. You can begin from here.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Problems don’t have to drain you. It’s the approach that makes all the difference. Curiosity gives you energy, but the trick is to be just interested enough to keep things light so you don’t get overwhelmed. Drama is optional — who needs it?

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You look at the same view as everyone, but what it means to you is entirely different. And that difference? Gold. If you stay silent, an essential voice goes missing. Speak up. Let them shift to meet the truth only you can offer.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You find life exciting without needing any adrenaline-fueled add-ons. Your curious mind naturally gravitates toward subjects of deep fascination — and what you discover might just leave you awe-struck.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Your knowledge of cause and effect includes the understanding that not every result is immediate, visible, typical or even logical. By articulating a need, you will also come to know its cost a bit better. This may lead to you changing what you ask for.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). It’s a day to avoid micromanagement. Many assessments aren’t necessary for things to proceed well. Relax and observe, resisting the need to judge every detail, which would be an unnecessary energy expenditure.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). All creations have their own lives outside of their creators. You’ll never know the whole of what happens as a direct or indirect effect of your contribution because the ripple goes so wide, it will still be resonating years from now.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (April 30). Whether internal or external, any existing blocks to the flow of love and goodness will lift this year. You will freely accept all bounty, compliments, tenderness and support from the world in full knowledge that you either deserve it or will. More highlights: One you admire takes notice and offers you something priceless. A creative endeavor blooms in unexpected ways, and a lucrative career shift will have rewards beyond financial. Romantic sparks fly. Taurus and Virgo adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 3, 10, 22, 1 and 30.

CELEBRITY PROFILES: Whether she’s playing Wonder Woman, a defender of all that’s good or the Evil Queen in Disney’s live-action remake of “Snow White,” Gal Gadot brings all the grace and integrity her Venus-ruled sign is known for to the role. The recent Hollywood Walk of Fame star recipient was born when the sun was in Taurus and Venus and Mercury were in the high-energy warrior sign of Aries, lending athleticism and fiery action.
