The Gemini new moon is a reset to quick, bright instincts. Remember the time you made a correct move as though instructions had been somehow encoded in the very fiber of your being. Split-second reactions driven by something other than the conscious processes (which lags pathetically behind) can cause us to wonder if all the hours of introspection and rumination we commit to the decision-making process are even necessary.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Beautiful things seem to call to you this week with various invitations and requests: enjoy me, protect me, buy me, envy me, make me. While it's not possible to heed every one of these demands, you'll cover a lot of ground in your journey through the increasingly lovely landscape of your life.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You're an astute observer of people, and this week, they will often open up and be their true selves around you. As a result, you will know them better than others do. It's as though you can hear the harmonies of each soul's music, and you'll enjoy providing the fitting accompaniment.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). This week's action takes on a great and graceful momentum. Unplanned and without premeditation, it seems futile to take any other approach but to surrender to the surprise of it. All you have to do is show up, shift your weight forward and fall into the swirling support of all that is around you.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). The world is changing, and you'll make updates accordingly. You'll notice that the habits, behaviors and consumptions of the people around you are typical, but not optimal. Maybe people just need better models for good living. This week, the question becomes, are you willing to go first?

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). While it is often very helpful to simplify processes and communication, it is not, strictly speaking, always the best route. Keep in mind that your complexities are also what make you unique. What feels reductive probably is. Do you really need to be understood by all? This is a time to advocate for your own beautiful complications.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Your good fortune will come from excellent teamwork, and it's a real talent of yours to oversee this. Often, when you assemble a team, the scope of the work is not yet known. So it's best to assemble teams based on the character of people instead of any momentary resources they may have to contribute.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). If you wonder whether it is worthwhile to share your small joys and follies, it is. Sure, disinterested parties exist, and you certainly wouldn't want to reveal tender truths to those who can't relate. But the benefit of sharing your journey will far outweigh the discomfort of doing so.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). One way of detecting personal growth is that you're attracted to different situations and people than you were before. When you notice your feelings have changed or that you no longer wish to participate in the same scenes you once gravitated toward, your development is apparent. Congratulations will be in order.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). One would think that people would choose joy all the time, and yet they don't for a good reason. To experience joy, you must have something of value at stake. The risk is an integral part of the equation. Instances in which your own happiness is worth seeking wholeheartedly will mingle with moments that call for different priorities.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You are constantly interacting with people who see the world very differently from the way you do, and therefore it is often impossible to know how an experience is perceived by the others involved. Because of this, surprising things happen this week. For instance, you will be pursued by someone you didn't know would be interested.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You've never had to try and be interested in people because it comes so naturally to you. Your curiosity is persistent. Until you understand another person, your mind will not let go of its questions. To indulge your curiosity is the start of a fantastically creative journey. Indeed, your curiosity is the very essence of creative joy.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Inside a beloved project or activity, it feels as though you can withdraw from the world and in doing so make it disappear, rules and realities, too. Even the flow of time bends to your collective power, slowing to a crawl to let you completely live inside a moment known only to the insiders. If this isn't love, it's something quite akin.

THIS WEEK'S BIRTHDAYS: As ideal as your childhood dreams may have been, this solar return, you will nonetheless land on milestones that echo those sweetly unreasonable imaginings. A partner helps you figure out your route to professional and financial success. You will have more varied and emotionally intimate friendships and meet many new people as you follow a special interest. Your dear ones need exactly what you give the best, which makes your heart soar and your family thrive.
