Consider that action doesn’t always manifest in ways we can see. Movement is action of the body; prayer is action of the soul. On the first full day of Scorpio Season, the Scorpio moon and sun offer a different level of participation to those so inclined. Regardless of your beliefs, today invites soulful participation -- a leaning inward that stirs unseen forces into motion. ARIES (March 21-April 19). You can’t solve every problem in the group, nor should you. What you can and will do is bring levity, ideas and perspective. Your originality is a cue to others who will feel freer to be themselves, too. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Not every adventure involves transportation tickets. Trains, planes and automobiles are mind-expanders for sure, but so are walks, conversations and new chapters of a book. Follow your curiosity somewhere new. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Love shows up steadily, not just when it’s convenient. If their attention, kindness or presence is spotty, you feel the gap. You’re putting energy into relationships of reciprocity today -- not just with people but with other interests and endeavors, too. CANCER (June 22-July 22). People speak in code, rarely saying what they mean, and yet their meaning often reads loud and clear to those who pick up on things like body language, tone, gestures and patterns of behavior. Today you’re a masterful decoder. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Sensitivity doesn’t have to be fragility. Use it as radar. You pick up signals of all kinds today. The key is filtering: not every vibration deserves your full attention. Tune in to the frequencies that give you something positive to work with. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). The way you fold a towel, brew your tea or arrange your desk can become a meditation. These repeated motions, seemingly trivial, remind you that order is possible even when life feels chaotic. Small rituals bring grounding. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Comparison to others is tempting, but it rarely works in your favor. Today, focus on contrasts that have to do with you and you. Your life is different today from yesterday. How? People have grown from knowing you. How? These examinations build self-respect. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You’re unstoppable. Where others might see a dead end or give up, you spot the hidden path if there is one. And if no such path exists, you have the courage to forge ahead and blaze one. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). If the environment itself is toxic, matching your tone to the room makes you complicit in the problem. In that case, authenticity and boundaries are more important than diplomacy. When in doubt, use your feet. Sometimes the best thing to do is leave. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). The most responsible thing you can do is to pause. Rest can be a kind of labor, too, the invisible work of renewal that makes your other efforts sustainable and strong. Trust that much is going on beneath your consciousness. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). People aren’t tasks to be managed. They are complex and best understood with a flexible kind of attention that spans the shallows and the depths. Listen and notice. Your attentiveness is more valuable than any quick fix. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). A small change in environment alters your whole outlook. Take the work on the road. Move the furniture. Call in help from someone you’ve never talked to before. What’s needed is to shake loose those stuck ideas. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Oct. 23). Welcome to your Year of Generous Mischief. Your playful side will get you into situations that end up being extraordinarily beneficial to you and yours. You’ll stumble into the ideal business or mentor and work on projects that bring excellent income. More highlights: a big family celebration, the rediscovery of an old passion you thought was lost and a change in scenery that feels like a whole new life. Cancer and Leo adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 4, 15, 23, 30 and 49. CELEBRITY PROFILES: In the action comedy “Mayday,” Ryan Reynolds plays a recon pilot whose mission goes awry in Siberian airspace. It’s type-casting for the Scorpio star who has, in real life, survived skydiving with a broken parachute, being hit by a car and failing high school drama due to the non-attendance typical of a working child. Reynolds started his career at 14 with a job in war-torn Sri Lanka for three months without his parents. Courage and self-reliance rule for this intuitive Scorpio with Venus and Neptune in Sagittarius.
