When the archer pulls back the bow, the world is full of potential. Change hangs in the air. The outcome may be uncertain, but that there will be one? That's a guarantee. The new moon in Sagittarius whispers to us the archer's secret: You must aim higher than the target to account for the arc created by gravity.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Don't bother weighing the positives and negatives. Not only do they lack actual weight, but it's impossible to know which are "negatives" or "positives" because what seems inconvenient today may prove, in the long view, to be your best luck yet.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Your dream can work! The gatekeepers just don't see it yet. It's not for them. So don't shrink the vision; shift the setting. A different venue, format or audience will be a better fit. This project just needs the proper container.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Some people love with words, others with total silence and careful listening. Some love with support, others with competition. Assume what's offered is a form of love. If it's not the kind you most need, keep moving and you'll find it.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Information spreads fast through the gossips, broadcasters and other natural amplifiers. Today, use that to your advantage. Give the talkers something worth talking about, and let their distribution network work in your favor.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You genuinely want what's best for others, but you also need care. Can you make more time for yourself? Carve out a few hours for the special things that matter to you — things that have nothing to do with serving others.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Out of kindness, you've sometimes dimmed your light around people who feel competitive or fragile. But today, don't worry. Your brightness will not destabilize others. If anything, when you shine, you expand the field for everyone connected to you.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Those who are unaware of what others expect of them are liable to disappoint people by breaking "agreements" they didn't even know they made. You avoid this dynamic by staying aware of social contracts, spoken and unspoken.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). To say you're a dancer seems to imply a certain skill level, but what if being a dancer is just about dancing? Do the action today and don't worry about the identity. Identity follows action, not the other way around.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Talk about what you do and what you need. Opportunities aren't as rare as some would have you believe. There is always room for new ideas, especially ones that improve people's lives, and those come so easily to you!

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Your steadiness doesn't come from rigidity, but from being rooted, like a tree that can bend with the wind. You'll attract people who need a bit of grounding, and you'll kindly let them lean on you for the support that is so easy for you to give.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Take measures to make sure everyone is on the same page. What could possibly be misunderstood? Check and double-check. Miscommunication leads to mistakes, but good communication and a little diligence now will prevent problems down the line.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). There is no clear winner today, which is how you know you're not in a game, but in something with deeper dimensions, like a purpose or an epic story — a grand landscape or a love affair.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (Dec. 19). It's your Year of the Electric Surprise. Your network expands wildly — coincidences, encounters, coffee meetings and phone calls all lead somewhere thrilling... if not right away then after a bit of follow-through. At certain points, numerous opportunities chase you at once, so you have your pick. More highlights: romance that's plentiful and genuine, exceptional creative output people pay for, share and celebrate. Taurus and Scorpio adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 5, 19, 8, 14 and 40.
