The lunar activity in the sign of nurturing bodes well for improvements that stick. We really do learn something from each and every interaction. Some of the lessons are obvious in the moment, and others won't be revealed to us for years, if they ever are. But all teachings are absorbed in some way. Experience is our constant coach and won't disappoint today or ever.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You don't realize how profound your emotional effect is on others. It's not that you're doing anything over-the-top, but your natural way of connecting, expressing or simply being reaches people in a way that stands out to them.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). There's a delayed cause and effect happening today. Something you did or chose a long time ago is finally bearing fruit. The seeds you planted -- intentionally or not -- are now coming up, possibly in unexpected ways.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Forget about discernment for a minute. Be open to friendly contribution in whatever size or package it comes in. You don't have to affirm a lifelong allegiance to like something. Liking things has momentum. One thing leads to the next.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Just when you think you know yourself, you will be faced with the realization that you don't even know the half of it. No one does! "You" haven't been fully invented yet. Understanding comes through living. Take a risk -- you're lucky today.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You want to be appreciated for who you are, not just for what you offer. That's why you hold back a little on the offerings. This way, you can see who leans in, who's generous, who drops interest. You'll see people's true colors.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). The "rush" is an illusion imposed by forces of ego and fear. You can change everything with a simple resolve to slow down. Breathe. What's truly meant for you won't disappear if you take a moment to think.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). There's an opportunity to make an impression, a connection or a stellar trade today. Just keep talking, listening and enjoying the exchange. Ideas build in the sharing going from fine to fortuitous.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Maybe you didn't want to get specific about what you bring to the table because you thought it would be bragging. But this is exactly what "the table" needs right now -- your truth. Your talent. Know and name your value so others will, too.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You're checking out a situation, and this is just the beginning. You can tell who the allies are without much investigation or testing. You have a gut-level feeling about this, and you can trust it.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Strong relationships aren't built on commonality. True openness means respecting people who don't mirror you. It takes maturity to value different styles, voices and approaches, but that's what real inclusion is -- an opportunity to expand.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). This is not a time for extremes. You'll find balance somewhere close to the middle. The far edges are unstable, unsustainable or even harmful. Whether it's temperature, diet, effort, speed or behavior, the ideal point will feel graceful and controlled.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Commit. The process will get frustrating today. Be patient. Changing tactics midway will likely only set you back. Stick to the plan a little longer. You're closer than it feels. Let consistency carry you through the dip.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (June 24). You let go of expectation and fully live what's happening. Through the unknown and in moments of certainty, you will love who you were, who you are and who you are becoming. Stellar relationships galvanize you to do your best work in the world. More highlights: exciting professional promotions, plot twists and hobbies that keep you in glorious shape. Pisces and Sagittarius adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 5, 14, 28, 33 and 19.
