These first days of the sun's Scorpio journey are times of intensified intuition. If it made total sense, it wouldn't be called intuition. Logic lines up like a ladder, but intuition is a blossom finding the sun, petal by petal, slowly unfolding, keeping the secrets safe until just the right moment when the warmth is worth the trade of vulnerability.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). When you're unsure of the next move, think about what attracts you. Which direction feels most magnetic? You're after a certain response. How can you get it? Look at the situation from multiple angles and follow your curiosity.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Feelings are stubborn travelers. Just when you think you can chart their course, they wander as they please. Though today feels like you're giving directions to the wind, don't let that stop you from whispering your wishes into it.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Expansion and contraction are the themes as you spread your wings. Feel out the balance between exploration and retreat. How high can you go before the air feels thin? How close do you need to be to the earth to feel grounded?

CANCER (June 22-July 22). The mind craves certainty, clinging to the familiar -- even if that familiar path is paved with misery. It's the unknown that feels daunting, uncharted. But remember, just because a road is well worn doesn't mean it's the right one.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Maybe you wouldn't believe how others experience you. It's the quiet knowledge, the details, the way you show you've been listening, watching, caring. That's the magic money can't buy.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You can be on the right team playing the wrong game. Having good people around you is something to celebrate. The rest can be changed more easily. Look at the rules. What needs adjusting?

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). The critics may show up, but the good news is that it won't matter whether they praise or criticize your work. Their very presence legitimizes it, stirs conversation and creates the buzz you need.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). No matter how good you are at compartmentalizing, life is still a holistic experience. Every aspect of living affects the whole. You'll use this to your advantage, raising the bar and watching the entire picture level up.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Bright conversations, brilliant ideas and exciting plans come together today. Your mind is sharp and your path is clear, so it's only natural you should be rewarded for the actions you follow up with.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Take winning and losing out of the equation now because the outcome will not matter in the least. You'll show up and do you. That will make more of a difference than you'll ever know.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You've had moments of extraordinary strength where you've gone beyond what anyone expected. You'll now show that it's a pattern with you. Lead with grit. Lean into resilience.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). What you need is momentum, and you'll get it by diving in without hesitation. Make quick decisions and stick by them. Sure, life might get a little messy, but the thrill of action will be worth any cleanup efforts.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (Oct. 27). A surge of beautiful boldness runs through your year, especially in relationships. Habits and fears that held you back will dissolve. Fortune will smile on you so often, you'll need to be somewhat discreet so that you can invest your resources wisely without attracting the pressures that come with too much attention. More highlights: a major creative win, new work and family expansion. Virgo and Libra adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 1, 12, 18, 39 and 26.
