Horoscopes: March 31, 2016

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You've so much experience to share, though you don't always have receptive people around you to make it worth your while. Today is different. You'll teach, and they'll eagerly absorb the lesson.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You can see that someone needs help even before that person realizes it. A dance will ensue - you take pains not to step on the other person's toes or pride.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Someone is trying to fit you into a role, but you have other plans. You may have to stop being so nice about this. It's better to declare your stance now, while it's still early in the process.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Sometimes, the best preparation is the awareness that whatever you bring, it won't be all that is needed; you'll still have to improvise. Good thing you are a first-class, brilliant improviser.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Work could tie up your mental energy in politics and power struggles, but love will be a reprieve from all of that, due to your uncomplicated, lighthearted approach to relationships.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You'll create beauty. It won't be the kind you can hold and keep. This beauty is situational and born of your keen awareness of others and complete immersion in the moment.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). The new situation will seem daunting. It's natural to fear it for a moment, but you're a pro. You'll live with the fear and move forward anyway. Start with what you know, and take a step.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). The glitch isn't a reason to quit, but a prompt to reboot. As for those who back out at the first sign of trouble, let them go. You need a strong team who will face the obstacles just like you do.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). No one is going to give you the time, freedom, and resources to do what you want to do. If you're passionate enough, you'll devise a way to reorganize your life around your own priorities.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). To the untrained eye, the mirage looks like a very real answer to thirst. You're more skeptical, as you've been tricked by the elements before. The only way to find out is to move forward.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). False gossip is harmful, and true gossip is even worse. Don't spread it or even listen to it today. Keep your own cards close to the vest, as there are those who can turn anything into a scandal.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). There's a formality to today's proceedings, and everyone will be more comfortable adhering to the tradition. A sticky situation may have you brushing up on your etiquette.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (March 31). This solar return, you shine with such an attractive attitude that you'll find you have more social offers than you know what to do with in the weeks to come. May features exotic scenery. Your comfort and skill with difficult people will lead to big money in June and October. Your eye for collecting will pay off in November. Leo and Scorpio adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 9, 16, 43, 2, and 12.
