Pink Moon Blooming

Juliet suggests "a rose by any other name would still smell as sweet," though, scent aside, the entire plot was driven by Romeo's last name. The Pink Moon by any other name would still not be pink, but the rosy hue in our imagination sparks wonder, aligning with the energetic shifts of spring. Plant your passionate intentions and watch them bloom under its gentle guidance.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Words roll from you, not because you need to be smooth but because you really do know what you need to express. Keep using that gift, and watch it swell like a river after a storm. Speak for another, pen your musings, and let it flow.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). People will work harder for what they believe in than they will for a paycheck or a prize. But sometimes, what they believe in is the paycheck or the prize. Either way, you'll be right in there with the others, giving yourself over to the work of the day.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). It's easier to be disciplined in new places and in front of people you don't know very well. It's just human nature to want to bring your best self to fresh scenarios, which is why you'll like how it turns out when you go somewhere new.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). The world has enough criticism, enough scrutiny, enough ways to improve and sculpt and demand. It benefits you to take a full day off of needing to change, help or grow things. Enjoy who you are in this moment.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). There are days when it's easy to stay on course; you just set the autopilot and you're good to go. Today will need more navigation. Many factors affect the journey, like weather and power dynamics. Keep checking your position and adjust accordingly.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Knowing when to take liberties is an art. If you never take them, life is thrill-less for you and your audience. So you watch and wait, ever-better at reading the room and knowing when everyone could use some excitement.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You'll hear the best that others have to say because they try harder when you're the one listening. They seek your acknowledgment. You give a quality of attention that inspires people to show up with their A-game.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Often you lead with curiosity. It takes very little courage to walk through the door because you just want to know what's behind it! Even so, you'll benefit from the insider's tour. Can you request an introduction? It will warm up the adventure.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Out of respect for your own experience and process, you won't waste time. It will take assertiveness to keep things on track. But a cordial, confident attitude is no rare elixir for you; it's as common as coffee. You just have to stir it up.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You're a movie -- no spoilers. Nothing drives people away like full disclosure from the get-go. The unfolding is the fun part. Seduction isn't just for romance; pacing shapes all experiences. Give people the thrill of figuring things out for themselves.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Your mannerisms and style are a patchwork from various sources. It's really a talent in and of itself how you bring your many interests together into an effect that is truly all your own.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Your patience in guiding others through a learning process will leave a lasting impact. It's the small things -- the way you make everyone feel special and seen -- that makes the lesson stick.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (April 23). As a creative force, you will oft be enchanted by your own conceptions, a gift that motivates you through the challenges of building and on to winning moments of making a remarkable difference in the lives of many. More highlights: a shift in consciousness akin to landing in Oz, and a surge of resources, especially financial. Sagittarius and Libra adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 11, 4, 48, 2 and 19.
