Two Is a Pattern

One is an event. Two starts a pattern. The social Gemini moon illuminates patterns of human behavior. Automatic reactions are signs of character. Motivations, moves and manipulations also come to light. Understanding people's reasons and patterns makes us better predictors of behavior, which increases personal power and effectiveness.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Even in your most work-a-day mode you still feel astonishment at life's essentials, like breath, warmth and the privilege of another trip around the sun. You'll celebrate the mere sense of being in the flow of life.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). For optimum processing speed, your brain requires rest, play and exercise among other things. Sometimes you keep sharp by letting yourself be the opposite. Diffused, random, relaxed silliness can be restorative.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). It's said that lessons get repeated until they are learned. But no one can learn everything, nor should you try. If you can go a different way and avoid the issue altogether, do it. If that lesson is important, it will pop up again.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Self-compassion improves interpersonal dynamics because it's easier to have compassion for others when your soul and psyche experience the peace of self-acceptance.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Today your luck will run on momentum. It will be carried on the breeze of your movement. It will dance with you when you pivot, keep pace with you when you run, loft you when you leap.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You never know who's falling in love with your smile. Being unaware of the effect you have on others only makes your magnet stronger. All your attention goes into getting to know people better and there's none left for self-doubt.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Charles R. Swindoll said, "Life is 10% what happens to us and 90% how we react to it." Though it should be noted he was neither mathematician nor neurologist. "What happens" affects the plot to widely varying degrees.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You'll sort out your mind. The best way is to record all your thoughts: the good, the bad, the ridiculous and logical alike. Look at them in the light of tomorrow and then distill into a few sentences of clarity.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). The project that's worthy of you will sharpen your mind. You will execute each step with purpose. You'll study the larger context and you'll get feedback. Careful thought leads to stellar results.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Your connection to others dials you into deeper parts of yourself. You'll add to your social network, either by finding people who belong in it or honing your rules and standards on interactions with people who don't.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Spin your thinking to your own benefit. When you focus on what you have in the spirit of love, celebration and enjoyment, you are rich. When you give a holistic look at what you lack, you are free. Every gift comes with responsibility.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). For you, it's easy to find beauty because you go by what you like. You can't use the same method for truth. Truth doesn't require you to like it, it remains the same regardless of public opinion. Today you'll seek and know it.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (April 12). You'll find the lucrative side of your talents. You'll leave holes in your schedule for your creativity to pool inside, then make things worthy of celebration. Those celebrations will lead to more findings, creations and celebrations. More highlights: You advance your work through fearless authenticity. You'll experience a love that blossoms in unexpected ways. Libra and Gemini adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 15, 20, 1, 18 and 42.
