Welcome to Gemini season, when the sun sends vibes to the lighter side. Trends, fun, witty banter and a bit of mischief will set in. There's a sense of becoming your next version, and you can as long as you protect your attention. The world will offer endless distractions dressed as opportunities. Choose inputs that feed the goal and starve the rest.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Silence invites guesswork. Instead, you speak up and set the terms. Today, you'll share your progress, decisions and outcomes. When others talk, they'll echo what you've made clear.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Relationships are unpredictable. Sorting out who is right, wrong, truthful, delusional or other would eat time and is probably irrelevant. It's better to trust that togetherness serves a purpose, though perhaps one that's not immediately clear.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You know what it's like to play to the wrong crowd, and those experiences have led you to position your work advantageously. You'll show up where what you do will be understood and valued. Tremendous benefits follow.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). There's a quiet longing riding under the surface today. You'll benefit from engaging with it. Consider yourself in conversation with the feeling, even if the questions are the sort that can't be put into words.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). To control your own narrative is a power move that only works for you because you're honest and tuned in to what people find entertaining and interesting. You'll guide the story and be seen how you want to be seen.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). A plan won't move forward unless it works for everyone involved. Talk it through to see where it fits and where it doesn't. The more you smooth things out ahead of time, the better your chances of success.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). The day's events either stir memories or leave lots of room for them to appear. Try not to use those days as comparisons but rather as evidence that you've made so much rich life already happen and you'll continue to do so.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Something that held a lot of intrigue for you at one time is no longer interesting. Maybe it's not over for good, but it's over for now, freeing your beautiful mind to seek new adventures.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Notice that you're reaping the benefits of countless days of work. This started long ago when you accepted substantial responsibilities (that didn't seem big at the time). Be proud of what you provide and how you maintain beautiful relationships.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You don't need perfect self-love to feel good about who you are. A working respect goes a long way. Relatedly, today you may notice that you're no longer chasing approval from someone, and this makes the interaction lighter and more interesting.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Something about this doesn't sit right, and yet you agreed to the deal. It doesn't mean you're stuck with it. Deals can be renegotiated, changed and even broken. Open the conversation to reshape the terms in a way that feels better.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Just because you are good at something doesn't mean you enjoy it. And just because you are bad at something doesn't mean you're not having the time of your life with it. If you like it, do it — end of story.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (May 20). In your Year of the Kind Eye, you're a strong, effortless influencer. You see the best and most beautiful in people. They glimpse themselves through your eyes and are inspired to greater heights. You'll turn the visionary gift on yourself, fully appreciating your talents, qualities and quirks and realizing your fondest wish. More highlights: A study you'll learn to monetize, closeness and memory making with loved ones and a domestic refresh. Aquarius and Sagittarius adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 32, 20, 4, 15 and 10.
