Spheres of Syncopation

Pluto enters Aquarius, highlighting the profound quirkiness of human connection. Bonding demands presence. The trouble is that people move at seemingly mismatched paces. Those with the maturity and compassion to make the timing work will meet with a gift of syncopation. The more present you are, the more connected you will be to others.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Strength and vulnerability are intertwined, like roots beneath the soil. The more open you are, the deeper your strength grows. Brave blooms rise from tender roots.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Relationships follow the same rule as radios. To get the music, you have to tune in to the frequency. Today you’ll adjust your dials and notice who’s broadcasting on your same wavelength.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Public approval matters less today. You’ll get the space to work without judgment and figure out the details without the pressure of eyeballs on your scene. You’ll show your work on your own time, when it’s ready.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Your life is like a race car today, with sleek lines that aren’t just aesthetic — they’re a practical necessity to eliminate drag. Anything sticking out creates unnecessary friction. You’ll file it down to go fast.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You have a soft spot for those keeping their pain at bay. You see it — the struggle behind their restraint. A gentle touch or kind word will set the tone for an environment conducive to healing.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). How others see you may be different from how you see yourself. Don’t chase trends or approval. What you offer will connect with the right people when the timing aligns. Focus on your own truth and the world will catch up.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You’re not avoiding conflict out of fear; you’re sidestepping it because you see no need to engage in futility. Let others spin in circles. You simply walk away, toward your own quiet peace. Retreating from the noise is how you advance your calm.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You are more than one idea, one genre or one style. A signature style is only powerful if it continues to evolve. Let yourself explore beyond your own identity. It’s a way to keep your art alive and always in motion.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). You’re nervous because you care. Getting comfortable with being nervous is the skill to attain now because it’s the same as getting comfortable with being a caring person.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’ll step up, not for praise but for purpose. You’re fully aware that your part in the group doesn’t define the whole, and it’s good to know the weight isn’t all on you. Still, your influence will steer the course, and it’s a duty you take seriously.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). The strength you need isn’t muscular and dominant. There is far more strength in vulnerability. It invites life to join it. What we are when joined in life is always going to be stronger than what we are when we try to stand alone.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You’ll invite good fortune by streamlining possessions and tasks, ordering them differently and giving up a few, too. Don’t focus on owning more. Focus on wanting less. Your mood lightens; you meet the day in peace.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Nov. 19). You prioritize like a pro this year, so you’ll have time to nurture your talents, pursue passions and savor the simple joys. The beautiful part is that you never lose sight of what truly matters. More highlights: A mentor who helps you unlock your potential, a dream job offer, and a celebration that leaves you feeling cherished. Gemini and Pisces adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 9, 16, 25, 36 and 2.
