You’re an overachiever in every area of your life, and it’s time to cut yourself a break. There’s a time to be No. 1 and a time to back off. In many battles, victory is fleeting. There’s great peace to be experienced this week when you figure out the appropriate moments to take yourself out of the race and just be. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Stress is a downer. It’s made worse by your inner critic. But the good news is, if there are any nonproductive thoughts running through that tickertape in your head, you have the ability to replace them immediately with productive thoughts. The friendship you make with Pisces will help you in this endeavor. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Resolve not to waffle in your decision-making process. There is absolutely no reason to act until you’re compelled to. And when you do make a move, whichever way you go, do it without a doubt. Hesitation equals losing out. You’re particularly instinctual and strong on Friday. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Your skills are sharp, you’re energy is strong, and you know you can deliver. At first it may seem that no one needs what you’re offering. This is your chance to be versatile. You’ll profit from saying “yes” to something you know little about and then learning it on the fly. You’re bright and capable. Believe it. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You think that at this stage in the game you’ve learned the ropes, you’re doing your thing, and you shouldn’t need a lot of guidance or cheerleading. So why do you want it? Everyone needs encouragement, including and especially you. Thursday you’ll be acknowledged and accepted. Soak it in. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). It’s easy to find fault. You’re working harder to see the not-so-obvious beauty around you. Be generous in your assessment of others. The difficulty of a situation may cause people to act less than dignified. We’re all just learning. The more compassion you can bring to others, the better you’ll feel about yourself. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). It’s only natural for humans to silently keep track of who got in line first, who was last to return the call, who owes money, etc. At a certain point it becomes draining to even think about it. And it’s probably a lot more fun to be generous, big-hearted and willing to let it all go. You gain much more for giving.
