The fates favor tenacity and endurance this week under the full moon of the sturgeon. To cultivate these qualities can take extra intrapersonal work. Most people don't get asked or credited enough about their personal achievements, which is why it's important to remind yourself of your successes and what you've overcome. Building your relationship to yourself in this loving way helps every other relationship.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You'll cultivate creativity by connecting with what inspires you. Whether you do this in a conversation, a drawing, a journaling session, dance or other, ideas flow in a generous stream. Share with a mentor who can guide you, a peer who can collaborate with you, and a novice who can benefit from your insight.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). As you focus on enhancing your skills, you'll get ideas and inspiration from a wide array of sources. What you learn from a mentor or expert is no more valuable than the feedback of a novice or comments from one who is completely unfamiliar with your field. You've a talent for bringing information together and using it to better yourself.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You, like most people, have a type. Because this type keeps appearing in your life in various forms, new friends often resemble those you've befriended before. Sometimes, you wonder whether you should change it up, if such a thing is even possible. Social experimentation is favored, and you'll be delighted by surprisingly beneficial outcomes.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). You don't feel like you need the approval of others, but the truth is that it's more fun to have it than not. You feel comfortable, confident and free to move forward. Now someone comes along to shake up your confidence and put your true grit to the test. Watch your self-talk and you'll stay strong.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). People will pay attention to you and your work. You may not know exactly what to make of the feedback, but the fact that people see something worth commenting on is, in and of itself, a form of validation. Constructive criticism is a disguised compliment. Even so, stay confident in your own judgment — you're onto something big.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). This week, only a select few are privy to the knowledge and opportunity you're let in on, which invites a heightened sense of belonging and significance. There's a thrill in knowing you're part of something special, something not everyone has access to. Exclusivity will make an experience more appealing and valuable.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Complex projects need more planning and thinking time. Simple projects are better to jump into and execute as you go. You'll have both types of projects this week, and you'll enjoy switching approaches to suit the needs of the moment. You'll be seen as a leader, which will pay off for you further down the line.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). An aim to build your network is the single most life-altering purpose you could adopt this week. Each person you meet is a world. Freshen up old associations and ask for introductions. More associations mean more influence, and more influence means more opportunities to contribute to the thriving of all.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). A lull is just what you need, especially one long enough for you to get a bit bored. The discomfort will trigger you to action. You'll initiate an exciting venture. Tell three people what you want and what you intend to do about it. The ideal lineup is someone you admire, someone who looks up to you, and a competitor.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Reach out to people you haven't connected with in a while. A friendly message to a former colleague, a distant friend or an acquaintance from a past event will let a bit of magic into the scene. Because you're curious, you ask good questions and you listen well, every connection is a chance to expand your world.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). This week's efforts to enforce your personal boundaries aren't about keeping people out so much as prioritizing your inner world, which is best achieved in solitude or among trusted, supportive people. Knowing that you can't always control your social life, you take charge of it in those moments when you're able to.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). While approving smiles and congratulatory pats on the back tend to make people feel comfortable and accepted, it's also OK not to get the support. Without apparent signs of approval, you dig deeper for your own true grit, which is a much more abiding and robust resource once you figure out how to tap into it.

THIS WEEK'S BIRTHDAYS: Your way is right, your heart is true, and your vision is inspired. Best of all, you know this on a deep level, and others can feel it. It will be easier than ever to get others on board with your plan. More highlights: You'll develop new levels of charm. You'll give your heart to someone who will take very good care of it. You'll be given a responsibility, and the challenges help you develop in the ways you most want to and thrive accordingly.
