Aries (March 21-April 19)
You'll get a little cosmic wink today—an inside moment of humor that only a small circle would understand. It's as if the universe and you are in perfect sync, sharing a secret laugh that makes the day feel just a bit more magical. maggyona/Pixabay
Taurus (April 20-May 20)
Children and pets will make a mess. Friends will be less than helpful. Clients will be tardy. You will be sweet about it all because, ultimately, these are just the sort of circumstances that the best people use to hone character qualities like patience, gentleness, and generosity. maggyona/Pixabay
Gemini (May 21-June 21)
It's OK if you don't have instant rapport with someone, and in fact, it's more intriguing this way. You'll appreciate the richness that comes from a slow burn. The best connections don't come preassembled—they get better the more you put into them. maggyona/Pixabay
Cancer (June 22-July 22)
Different days call for different perspectives on reality. Here's a simple rule: If you ignore something and it doesn't go away, it's real—and that's good news. Real problems are easier to handle than the ones we create in our minds. maggyona/Pixabay
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)
A form of love is coming into your life, and it's a hybrid of at least two kinds—friendship and compassion, or romance and professional admiration. Your openness leaves you receptive to the quirks of the heart, embracing this novel connection. maggyona/Pixabay
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
Today, you'll observe, ask questions, and investigate—not to judge but to understand. To see things from multiple sides is divine, a practice of wisdom and grace. And you'll love the quirky twist brought about by one of your questions. maggyona/Pixabay
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23)
Some people at work and home might be doubting you right now. It's OK—they just don't know any better yet. But they will. Soon enough, they'll see what you're made of. And the first thing they'll learn? You're a force—deal with it. maggyona/Pixabay
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21)
The busy work might seem pointless while you're doing it, and it's easy to question why something so repetitive and mindless matters. But it does—it actually matters a lot. The outcomes depend on foundations that smooth the way, and the effort you put in now will pay off later. maggyona/Pixabay
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
All feelings—whether they're of hurt, anger, frustration, or joy—are valid and don't carry inherent shame. But some feelings, if held indefinitely, can prevent growth or peace. Release isn't invalidating—it's just what needs to happen to move forward. maggyona/Pixabay
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
Each person is an uncharted discovery. This isn't something you read once or heard from a wise person. It's something you know because of the thrill that comes from experiencing fascinating social interactions. maggyona/Pixabay
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
At some point, everyone wrestles with feeling good enough for the moment they're in. While self-assessment has its place in growth, you'd do well to skip the self-evaluation today. You're more than enough—so dive in and handle it. maggyona/Pixabay
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
Since happiness depends more on an inward disposition of the mind than on most anything else, to cultivate a way of thinking that constantly seeks joy and beauty is the worthiest pursuit that will pay off in ways you can't even imagine. maggyona/Pixabay
Today's Birthday (April 15)
The only reason you can't categorize this year as "dreamy" is because you're making things happen in reality, quickly, courageously, and specifically fitting your wishes. More highlights: Health and fitness victories bring new options and a beautiful clarity of mind. You'll apply strategic thinking to making something happen for an entire group. Gemini and Aries adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 4, 17, 21, 11, and 39. WOKANDAPIX/Pixabay

In "The Studio," Seth Rogen plays the head of a struggling film studio aiming to revitalize its fortunes. The series boasts an impressive ensemble cast, including Martin Scorsese, Paul Dano, Anthony Mackie, Olivia Wilde, Ron Howard, Dave Franco, Zoe Kravitz, Bryan Cranston, Kathryn Hahn and Catherine O'Hara. Rogen was born when the sun, Mercury, and Jupiter were all in daring Aries, so it's no surprise the risk-taking director, writer, and movie star was once a teen stand-up comedian who dropped out of high school to make his Hollywood dreams come true.
