Eleanor Roosevelt said, “To handle yourself, use your head; to handle others, use your heart.” This was an era when grit and perseverance were greatly necessary to get through difficult times. While those qualities are still in demand, so is self-compassion. The lunar conjunction to Saturn in Pisces suggests you afford yourself the same kindnesses you extend to others.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You can still get your way on the big things, but some of the details will be moved around. You’ll compromise on many points, but not on your values. Those remain unchanged for now.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). The best way to find out about a person will be to know what they want. Not the surface wants that can be bought with money, but the deeper wants that people usually take pains to hide.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). People often assume others think as they do, but every skull-sized kingdom is run differently and has its own unique weather, aims and purposes. You’ll form stellar alliances because you take the time to learn about the inner world of others.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Feelings are spices. Some are so strong, the tiniest dose is all that’s necessary or they’ll take over the whole dish and ruin it. Resentment and bitterness are two you can do without, but if you must, just a pinch.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Mistakes will happen. The less ego involved, the quicker you’ll be able to shake it off. If no one else cares, you probably shouldn’t either. Keep creating into the future and all will continue moving along.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). All connection happens in the here and now. This is where charisma occurs, too — and love, and anything that progresses the timeline. Living vividly and fully is all about being connected to the moment.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). There’s something you’ve been wanting to do for a long time. You don’t feel ready, but that doesn’t mean this isn’t the time. No one ever grew by doing what they already were fully knowledgeable and experienced in.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You have been known to “accidentally” spill key information at the perfect time. Whether strategizing consciously or unconsciously, the results will bring benefit to many because of two things: your intent and your tone.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You’ll be copied, an acknowledgment you’re doing something effective. Though imitation is flattery to some degree, there’s a point in which the copy is just infringement of your rights. You’ll have a strong sense of when and where to draw the line.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). If it’s not going right, you have everything you need to recognize the problem and reverse the trend. Tonight, the social sector of your chart lights up with activity.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Being extremely resourceful, you’ll find what you need before you ask for help. More than enough just slows down the process. Greed isn’t just a vice; it’s an inefficiency.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You know where you want to go and you are open-minded about how you might get there. You are rocking a winning combination of structure and flexibility.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Jan. 14). This year will be a riveting chapter in the book of your remarkable life. Projects showcase your talent. Your imagination will run wild and you’ll have the perfect team to turn whims into practical builds, tactical solutions and results-driven systems. More highlights: love letters, gifts, a raise and a winning contest entry. Gemini and Taurus adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 10, 5, 33, 29 and 17.
