HOROSCOPES

You may be confused about a love interest’s seeming lack of communication this week, Aries. What may seem like silence to you could be patience to him or her.

It may be challenging to see the progress you are making when it comes in small quantities, Taurus. Rest assured you are getting things done and moving along.

Gemini, others have a lot of interest in you, and that can lift your spirits - especially if you are looking for a new job. Being in demand also can lead to new friendships. Cancer, the praise you deserve finally arrives. After all of this waiting, the recognition can be a bit overwhelming. However, do your best to accept it with grace.

Leo, someone you haven’t seen in a while reaches out to reconnect. It may come as a surprise to hear from this person, but welcome him or her with open arms.

It seems as if your financial investments and working relationships are moving along smoothly, Virgo. If you have plans to pursue new ventures, now is the time to act. Libra, you may start to feel at ease in situations that may have put you on edge in the past. This may mean that you’re learning the ropes or that you’ve gotten experience.

Scorpio, with so much high energy, you can accomplish anything that you set your mind to this week. You might even polish off your entire to-do list.

Positive new influences may come in your life through a new relationship or a career change, Sagittarius. Embrace the changes and enjoy the results. Capricorn, you have all the support in the world but you may not be ready to embrace it. Accepting help is not a sign of weakness. Rather, it shows you are self-confident.

You can fix problems for others or yourself with ease, Aquarius. In fact, others may start coming to you for help more often. It can be emotionally fulfilling to help others.

Pisces, with a steadier financial situation and improved self-esteem, you have less to worry about what the future will bring you.
