Horoscope: March 9

Aries (March 21-April 19): There’s something you’d like to confess. The admission is actually quite harmless, and yet it’s the perfect thing to tell a friend.

Taurus (April 20-May 20): Try not to rely too heavily on one idea of who you are. Strive to be well-rounded.

Gemini (May 21-June 21): You’ll encounter individuals who are not as verbally inclined. It will be a challenge to get these types to open up, but it will help you to know what they have to say.

Cancer (June 22-July 22): You’ll be the leader. You’re not out to control anyone — you rule by getting the input of everyone. But it’s you who makes the decision.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): You love people, in theory. You’ll come across individuals who challenge that theory. You will benefit from making an extra effort to kindle a feeling of warmth for every person you meet.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You know what you know, and it shouldn’t be a reason for pride or shame right now.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): You’ve been so mentally taxed lately, and you need to blow off some steam. Get into activities that make you breathe and sweat.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): You can delve deeper into your subject of interest without much expenditure. You don’t have to go to school to learn about it.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You recognize that other people are going to feel differently than you do and wisely withhold some of your opinions.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You have that “wow” factor today. It’s not so much about what you look like or what you say. It’s your internal strength and confidence.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You have a right to be satisfied with your current level of education and stature. And yet you’ll still be driven to better yourself.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): There’s a reason you gravitate toward those who are even-keeled and predictable: You’re busy. You don’t have time for drama.

Today’s birthday (March 9): You’ll be cherished in your circle, and your influence will grow. In April, you’ll approach your love life as though you can’t lose, and you’ll win a million times over. Your ideas about how to improve your work environment will be implemented in July. Virgo and Cancer people celebrate you. Your lucky numbers are: 2, 13, 39, 11 and 28.
