The reveal of Capricorn season is a velvet curtain opening on the shimmering wonderland of a "Nutcracker" ballet. Lean into the wonderful weirdness of the next few days as Jupiter, the planet of luck, is involved in a number of precarious aspects. What seemed like a magic trick becomes more like a magic spell, with unpredictable transformations dancing to winter's music. Familiar people take unfamiliar forms; the small themes become oversized.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). The natural world provides all the setting you need. You will dive headfirst into movement and connection. You'll find your rhythm out in the world, where energy flows freely. The sunlight will work its magic, the breeze will carry fresh ideas, and the right conversations will spark something extraordinary in you.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Success isn't about doing everything; it's about doing one thing exceptionally well. When you channel your energy into a single pursuit, you gain clarity, skill and momentum that can open doors you never imagined. Resist the urge to scatter your focus. Trust that by narrowing your path now, you're paving the way for something remarkable later.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Keep checking in with people. One or two connections won't be enough. Rapport will continue to build with each new interaction. Even when it doesn't go smoothly, your efforts still culminate into a favorable outcome. Together you either produce what you set out to do or you produce a memory.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Are you falling into the pattern of always mastering one thing or always chasing the next thing? Patterns can feel comforting, but they often keep us from seeing the bigger picture. Whether you're stuck in a cycle of hyperfocus or perpetual novelty-seeking, it's worth pausing to evaluate your approach.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Relationships are a collaborative, creative effort, and how they turn out is never a reflection of just one person. The absolute best thing you can do for your life is to choose your company well. You deserve sweethearts. Note what a person has to say about their friends and exes. Pay attention to how they regard the people around them.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). The adventure you want is yours for the taking, and there are super simple, low and no-cost options out there. Keep an open mind. There are many ways to solve this week's problems, and if you stick with the first or second idea you have, you'll be limiting yourself unnecessarily.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Fear is your only enemy this week. If someone else seems to be playing the role of "antagonist," one way to diffuse the tension is to think about the scene differently. How does this person embody your fear? Is there a way to take on the fear and not the person?

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Step back and ask, "What is the right thing to give?" It's something easy! And it's what's really needed. Asking this question along the way will keep you from putting yourself out unnecessarily. Your generosity doesn't have to come at such a high cost to you, and you shouldn't have to struggle or be inconvenienced.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You don't realize how wonderful it is for life to surprise you until you have long stretches where it doesn't. Unexpected turns are a lift, even if at first they don't seem like favorable twists. It's time to put yourself on the path that is more likely to catch you off guard and delight you. It starts with following your curiosities and attractions.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You'll be inspired to make something for the one you adore. Follow creative impulses to an expression that's uniquely yours. The effort you put into crafting a heartfelt gesture will ripple far beyond the recipient. It's not just about the thing itself; it's about the thought, the energy and the love that goes into it.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Where fantastic people are involved, the world opens up. Their energy amplifies yours, creating a feedback loop of creativity and possibility. Seek environments with the potential for collaborative magic: an impromptu jam session, a brainstorming lunch or a casual chat with like-minded souls. The spark of genius will be in the air.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). There's no need to narrow your focus too soon. Experimentation is where the fun begins and where unexpected opportunities come alive. Dive into all that intrigues you, and let curiosity guide your choices. By embracing variety now, you'll stumble upon insights and passions that set the stage for something extraordinary in the future.

THIS WEEK'S BIRTHDAYS: You are physically and mentally mighty in this year of vitality and vigor. You accept challenges that make you stronger. Be sure to also accept the gifts, too. As you follow your exceptional taste in people and experiences, you'll be put on the path of adventure. More highlights: The work that relationships require will bring you much contentment and an education. The learning you do while helping others to thrive will give you skills that are both lucrative and in demand. Your social and financial life will lift as you apply them in new directions.
