Venus connects with Uranus before changing into her Gemini gown. Uranus is a surprising stylist who won't allow anyone to go "safe" or "dated" on his watch. This is an invigoration of taste, a daring push to personal style and a drive to do more than just show up on time. Showing up with a dazzling energy is the new aim.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). There's something you're planning. Pulling off events, meetings, trips, even a simple date — it's all project management on some level, and it's more than a logistical talent. It's an art form. These are the moments of your life, and you'll produce them beautifully.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You're craving quiet, a little island of peace, and suddenly in come the texts, questions, requests, etc. It's just because you're so needed. And because you're the go-to person, today brings a kind of bittersweet magnetism.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). There's something you're planning. Pulling off events, meetings, trips, even a simple date — it's all project management on some level, and it's more than a logistical talent. It's an art form. These are the moments of your life, and you'll produce them beautifully.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You're craving quiet, a little island of peace, and suddenly in come the texts, questions, requests, etc. It's just because you're so needed. And because you're the go-to person, today brings a kind of bittersweet magnetism.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You matter deeply to people... and you may need to guard your peace a little more deliberately. The very qualities that make you valuable and loved also make you a magnet for other people's needs, sometimes crowding out your own desire for rest.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). You're brave about your work, as you should be. The best way to learn is by putting yourself out there. Knowing full well that the world is filled with critics and trolls, you risk it and learn from the courage that propels you toward your dreams.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Your attention itself changes the scene. Around you, people feel like they are being received, not just heard. Something in them straightens up a little, like a musician realizing the room has perfect acoustics.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Even when you're not performing at your sharpest, you still create connections. So accept whatever energy you have to give as being enough. The unpolished version of you builds stronger bonds than impressing someone ever could.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Financial management can look confusing on paper, yet you take it on. Being willing to face the spreadsheet is half the battle. Keep tracking, adjusting and making decisions under pressure. You'll be an excellent steward of resources.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You're not stuck. You're operating within constraints. You're building options. Each decision you make now, especially around the parts of your life you experience as more challenging, contributes to the ideal future you imagine. It's already underway.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). One definition of sadness is holding on to something that hurts to hold. It does seem as though there's something to let go of — a thought, a story, an idea of who you are. When you drop it, you feel immediately lighter.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You wear many faces today — reflective, lighthearted, instructive, curious, authoritative. None of them feel like costumes; they're all fluent expressions of who you are. You'll meet each moment with the right presence.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You're in a growth surge. Use it deliberately. Notice what actually works and adopt it. Notice what feels off and adjust it. Don't get stuck narrating your dissatisfaction. Channel it into movement.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You're in a moment where clarity plus action will equal real forward movement. And though you're worried about making the right move, you needn't be. The only mistake would be staying still while everything in you is trying to evolve.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (April 23). Welcome to Your Writerly Year in which you're no longer playing a part but writing the story. Every day feels like a blank page, your ideas flow easily, and your pen never runs out of ink. More highlights: A promotion, profitable partnership or smart negotiation boosts your finances. A love connection thrives on mutual admiration and lively plans for the future. You'll also enjoy a memorable celebration involving family and friends. Capricorn and Scorpio adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 17, 32, 8, 21 and 45.

CELEBRITY PROFILES: Taurus is ruled by Venus, planet of charm — a quality that little Taurus Shirley Temple built an entire empire out of before she'd even lost her baby teeth. During the Great Depression, people went to the movies to escape a difficult reality, and Temple gave them magic. She also had that classic Taurus work ethic, putting in hours of rehearsals to bring the sunshine to life. The curly-topped Taurus ambassador had four natal luminaries in Aries and Neptune in entertaining Leo.
