Everyone recognizes your ambition this week, Aries. Channel your energy constructively and don’t be ashamed to pursue your goals so strongly.

TAURUS Apr. 21 – May 21

Taurus, tackle some slow and steady work this week rather than trying to be innovative or unique. There will be a time to innovate later on. Right now you need to prove yourself.

GEMINI May 22 – Jun. 21

Gemini, you are in the mood to get started on something new over the next few days. Think about some tasks you have been putting off and develop a plan to address them.

CANCER Jun. 22 – Jul. 22

Cancer, take an intellectual approach to solving a problem that has been bothering you for quite some time. Ask a friend for advice if you find you need some help.

LEO Jul 23 – Aug 23

Leo, approaching someone who has not done his or her share of the work can be difficult. Tread gently because this person may have been distracted by something more pressing.

VIRGO Aug 24 – Sept 22

Your big ideas are highly valued, Virgo. Let others know what you are thinking and you may find that even more people are receptive to your ideas than you initially thought.

LIBRA Sept. 23 – Oct. 23

Libra, things have been going your way for some time now. It’s exciting waiting for whatever is just around the corner. This unanticipated good fortune is just what you need.

SCORPIO Oct. 24 – Nov. 22

Open yourself up to a new way of thinking, Scorpio. While your way of doing things may be right most of the time, adopting a fresh perspective may help you see things more clearly.

SAGITTARIUS Nov. 23 – Dec. 21

CAPRICORN Dec. 22 – Jan. 20

Try to meet some new people, Capricorn. Add to your collection of networking contacts, which will help further both your professional and personal lives.

AQUARIUS Jan. 21 – Feb. 18
