Horoscopes: Monday, January 22, 2018

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You're exceptionally creative today, but chances are you're being asked to take part in conventional environments. Take the format and give it a creative twist.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). A kind act can take many forms, but no matter how it shows up, it will not be mistaken. People know what compassion feels like. Today's kind intention will have an unmistakable warmth to it.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Good is coming from the situation - though it's too early to detect, and if you try, you'll only get in the way of the process. Instead, take it one thing at a time, striving for the kindest and most patient response to each moment.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). They think they know you, but do they really? You change like your guiding luminary, the moon - showing a different kind of radiance by the hour. To love you is to be constantly learning.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Although your reasoning powers are stronger than ever, there are some situations you won't be able to reason your way into or out of. Use your intuition. You can trust your extrasensory perceptions.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Listen to the small concerns. Handle the nuances. Maybe this isn't pettiness but an opportunity to tend to something that oughtn't fall through the cracks.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You said it before, but you'll have to say it again - this time differently. Keep trying new approaches until you find the one they can best hear and understand.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Past events have made you hesitant to go forward, but don't let that stop you altogether. Take it as a sign that there's something more to find out about the situation.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You'll hear the echo of a call initiated weeks ago. You may not be sure whether you made the right choice back there, but don't worry too much about it, because what matters is what you do next.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Moving your body will be important and will lead to greater movement and flexibility of emotion and thought.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Should you elevate the physical above the mental, the aesthetic over the practical, the spiritual above the sensual? No, no and no! It's all working beautifully together as you honor your whole self.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). There's a beautiful rhythm and variation in your daily life - with all the little sections of life in nice slices, shuffled and fanned out so that you can play them to their best effect.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (Jan. 22). Love is your constant companion. A commitment to a long-term project will finally pay off in 12 months, so do not let up, no matter what else comes into your world. A vote of confidence in March may come in the form of an award or a bonus. Physical vitality increases with a new approach to health and fitness. Scorpio and Sagittarius adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 4, 44, 48, 18 and 20.
