The moon disappears into Scorpio's beautiful shadow and uncertainty settles like fog. Enjoy the mystery of these conditions. They are rare, after all. That's why fog machines were invented -- because there's something cool in the illusion created by this shadowy mist moving through. What we know is finite. What we don't know is infinite.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Even if you're capable of doing something on your own, accepting help is still valuable, just not for the obvious reason. The "help" isn't really the point; what matters is what you learn through the exchange.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Sometimes the fastest way forward is to pause, check your bearings, and confirm your orientation, because you don't want to go fast in the wrong direction. A brief moment of awareness now will save hours later.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). People ask of you what they will. But you can't oblige every ask. People who respect you will stay in dialogue even when they don't get what they want. People who only want the "yes" will fade away when they hear "no."

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Love can witness without fixing. Kindness can be warm and steady without falling into the gravity of another person's need. Take care of yourself first. It's not selfish; it's the correct order.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You may have wonky tools or a clumsy setup today, and that's actually perfect. When things are tricky, it wakes up your inventiveness, forcing you to move differently, think sharper and invent. And you're so brilliant when you improvise!

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Kindness isn't a contract. Your generosity doesn't obligate you to the comfort of others. Protect your energy. Give because it delights you, not because it's expected. And if you're just not sure, hold off until you have a stronger feeling about what to do next.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You sense the ache of the world even on bright days. Still, it's not betrayal to feel good. When joy visits, take it in. And someone must remember what hope feels like. Why shouldn't that someone be you?

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). It's not too much to ask life to impress you, especially if you ask it to yourself, or send it to the heavens, or write it in your journal. After all, you regularly give more than what's expected of you. And others might, too, if they sense the challenge.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You're awakening to how uneven emotional labor can be. Don't confuse serving with loving. True partnership is mutual tending. Step back from one-way giving; step toward those who offer warmth back. Balance restores dignity and real joy.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You've been accused of stubbornness, but there's an upside to it -- and in your case it's an up and up and up side. Tenacity got you here and tenacity will get you to the next place, too. Keep it pushing, eyes ahead, never stop.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). To want more from someone is to overlook who they already are. Love's rare grace is to stop improving, fixing or expecting, and simply witness. Let them be, and they'll rise naturally into the truest version of themselves.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). When you chase a floating ball in water, your own motion pushes it away. The same goes for goals and people. Consider approaching indirectly, from the side or under the surface. Don't make waves. Let it drift closer to you.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (Nov. 19). Welcome to your Year of Wonder Work. You'll create something that makes you proud to wake up early. The mix of joy and diligence turns ordinary efforts into legacy-making magic. More highlights: Romance finds you in motion -- on a journey, in a workshop, mid-song. You'll refine your tastes, elevate your surroundings, and collect experiences that feel cinematic. Cancer and Leo adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 10, 39, 26, 14 and 13.
