The difference between knowledge and understanding will come into play these first days of Mercury in Sagittarius. Knowledge can be memorized. It can be borrowed. Understanding must come from one’s mind, as it wraps around knowledge, tests it, inhabits and animates it. Many will have the drive and go the extra mile to understand.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). New relationships have their own special magic, a spark that can largely be created by our fantasies of who we want people to be and who we want ourselves to be.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Of all the notable sounds you’ll hear during the day, the two you’ll enjoy most will be your name on the lips of a delightful someone and the low din of life in the distance, uninterrupted by anything that requires your attention.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Wanting a particular outcome too badly makes you less aware of the nuances of timing. Help yourself play it cool by doing what it takes to return to a state of relaxed neutrality.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). It seems like with sufficient evidence to make your point, the others would concede without drama. It is not so, as everyone has their own opinion about the evidence. The only way to reduce drama is to drop out of the fight.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Items in your everyday life get out of control, seeming to have lives of their own or decaying in some way before your eyes. When the back of the closet and the refrigerator are decluttered, so will be your mind.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). The easiest people to be around today will be neither related to you nor reminiscent of anyone from your original family. You’ll see another side of yourself because they do.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). The anchors of life are very useful and can keep you from drifting, emotionally or otherwise, to parts unknown. But you’re supposed to lower them when the ship is at rest, not en route.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). With the internet alive and eager with information, you have to be a little judicious about what you ask. There are things you really don’t want to know. Once you learn, you cannot unlearn, so go carefully.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You like the look of the situation and now it’s time to do a deeper dive. Is there substance here to match? If there is, then you’ll know within 10 questions.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You cannot develop yourself and ignore yourself at the same time. You are a reliable entity who must be listened to, first by you. Put self-approval before validation from others, and then act on what you approve of.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Certain individuals seem crystalized against the truths you hold so dear. On the bright side, if it were not the case, you wouldn’t have nearly the drive to explore, practice and celebrate this important part of who you are.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You would rather do the listening than the talking, but what’s out there to listen to today will either be too quiet to hear or, quite frankly, not worth listening to. Take this as an invitation. The world needs your contribution.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Dec. 2). Your social grace is admirable to many and a talent you can rely on. You’ll intuit when to step forward and when to step back, and in doing so, you’ll create a beautiful dance of relationships. A much-needed break from work will come with once-in-a-lifetime experiences. A decision in February increases family closeness. Leo and Aquarius adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 32, 16, 3, 39 and 4.

COSMIC QUESTION: “Does he love me? He is a Gemini, and I am a Leo. Early on, I manipulated him into saying he loved me because I felt that I didn’t want to be with someone who didn’t love me. Now, how can I trust he really loves me and doesn’t just say it because I made it a deal breaker?”

If he gave you something you wanted because he wanted to keep you, then was that not a token of love? Maybe he has baggage around the words “I love you,” and yet, he spoke them anyway for you. Now that you’ve decided that the means didn’t justify the end, you require other proof. So, how it is that you would prefer to receive your love? A gesture? A gift? Different words? A physical manifestation of some kind? It might be interesting to explore this in a journal or a conversation with a trusted person, although don’t be surprised if you decide on a piece of love’s proof, request it, get it and then still don’t feel completely loved. In the end, seeking proof of love is just another form of approval seeking, and thus trying to get internal fortification from external means. It never works. The wholeness you seek is accomplished by determining your own set of estimable acts and approving of your process of executing them.

CELEBRITY PROFILES: Sagittarian superstar Britney Spears has held several spots in Guinness World Records. At one time, she was the most-searched person on the internet, the youngest female artist to have five albums reach No. 1 on the music charts and the fourth-bestselling artist in music history. An Aquarius moon speaks to her charitable heart and the good her philanthropy does in the world.
