The swollen Virgo moon represents the verdure of youth. A vibrant purity is in the air, and it is easier to make the choices that will lead to greater health and vitality. Savor the last moments of the season. There will be something personal to say goodbye to — think about what this is for you. On Sunday, the sun will enter Aries, beginning a new cycle.

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

. You’ll pursue your ambitious dreams and make sacrifices to get ahead. You won’t mind working long, though this becomes un

pleasant if you know that others are waiting at home for you.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

. You’re a little like a homing pigeon who will enjoy flight and exploration as long as you can return to roost. You need your freedom, but at the end of this day, you won’t mind being contained in a safe and cozy environment.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21)

. Part of you really wants to be included in a situation you don’t easily fit into. You don’t know why — that is a mystery and probably not worth getting into. You will eventually make your way in, though.

CANCER (June 22-July 22)

. People study to learn what you already know instinctively. You will influence others without thinking, persuade them without talking, comfort them without putting yourself out in the least.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Whatever you want to do, it will be accomplished today through your network. You’ll see where you could add a few people, as well — people who have different skills and extensive reach in a world of which you know little.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You value family to such an extent that you feel the impetus to raise and teach relatives who aren’t your children. Perhaps this has to do with taking care of your parents or another extension of your clan.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You like people who explore and experiment, especially if they come back to you with the highlights of their discoveries. You would do the same if you had the time, but lately your schedule won’t allow for it.SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Your mode of transportation could use some attention. Whether it’s better shoes or a better car, there’s something that is within your power to upgrade, and this is the luckiest day in months to do so.

 SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You expect much of yourself, and you will often deliver on these expectations, but not always. When you don’t quite make it, the key is to be patient and try again. There’s no need for anger; nor is there time for it.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You are motivated only slightly by money. Your true desire is to know more about this existence. You thirst for knowledge, and you think a lot about what is true. That is precisely how you will spend many of your hours.AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). The need to feel powerful is basic and exists in animals, as well as people. All indicators suggest that you can’t help it that you are highly ambitious and thrilled to be in charge. So embrace your need to lead, and go for it.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You will free-associate yourself into a poetic state of mind. Your creativity is a delight to all around you. There is no greater thrill for you today than to put something in the world that wasn’t there before.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (March 18). Though you are classy and appropriate, this year you will speak your mind and behave as you please to a greater extent. April brings a windfall. Over the next 10 weeks, many will find the glamour and mystery around you most entrancing. Be judicious with your schedule, giving loved ones the most of yourself. Capricorn and Virgo people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 2, 31, 24, 39 and 41.

GEMINI: You’ll earn the affectionate respect of one who is difficult to win over. CANCER: You’ll have to be strong for someone else. In doing so, you realize how love brings out the best in you. LEO: Friends who love each other are the best friends to hang out with — the good feelings are contagious. VIRGO: You’ll be the star of the show, and everyone will want to be close to you. LIBRA: Give what is needed, but do not over-give, or you’ll be taken for granted. SCORPIO: You’ll be attracted to people and situations that include an element of mystery and danger. SAGITTARIUS: You’ll work hard for someone’s love, which makes that person all the more attractive to you. CAPRICORN: Accommodate your love, but do not do all the work for him or her. AQUARIUS: You will be happiest with a love that offers you challenge. PISCES: You will have energy to burn, and you’ll enjoy sharing with a partner activities that keep you in shape.
