Love has many ways to make an entrance. Sometimes it opens the door like a friend, with a predictable and comforting rhythm. Sometimes love washes over like a giant wave, powerfully sweeping us into its currents. "Saw it written and I saw it say / Pink moon is on its way / And none of you stand so tall / Pink moon gonna get you all." -- Nick Drake, "Pink Moon"

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Because you're extraordinary, you like to under-promise and over-deliver. Just showing up has its own magic. You don't have to put anything extra or special into it, just bring yourself to the task and you'll be energized.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You're well aware that trials are like flint to a blade, sharpening character into a keen edge. The stronger your resilience, the easier it becomes to cut through challenges, reducing obstacles to a more manageable size.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). If it's at all possible, convenient and acceptable to you, giving people what they want is often the easiest and smartest way to interact. Knowing what people want? That's another story. You'll figure it out in clever, indirect ways today.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). There is an internal force, something deep within you, that will drive your actions and decisions. In this time of instinct over intellect, follow your inner knowing and act on information coming to you on a primal level rather than overthinking or analyzing.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). The good thing about getting what you don't want is that it helps you clarify what you do want. With this newfound clarity, keep painting the picture in your mind, adding new details along the way. Vision is the start of creation.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You have much to share today, including the simple but profoundly impactful gift of your mere presence. You're not always sure who your gifts are for, but you go forward in good faith and the right people will show up to appreciate and reciprocate.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). In every interaction you will deal with a person, not a uniform. Treating people as individuals is a mindset that is just as important when it comes to how you treat yourself. You're not defined by one role. You're complex, and so are your needs.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). What seems perfect on paper could fall short in reality. Furthermore, what seems appealing at first glance might not bring the satisfaction you expect. You'll never know until you try it on -- so try it on!

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Unlike water, which consistently boils at about 100 degrees Celsius, the boiling point of human emotion varies widely. Your awareness of others' triggers and limits will help you ease tension, fostering a warm but comfortably mild atmosphere.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Each challenge you embrace shapes a part of your character. You're drawn to tough work because it reveals your intelligence and strength. What emerges in the process was always there, but it takes a challenge to uncover it.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Intense attractions or strong emotions can cloud your judgment. You're captivated by something or someone. To avoid losing perspective, take a step back and wait until you're feeling more grounded before making any decisions.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You'll play a game and play it well. And though you take it seriously, you put the well-being of people before any desire to win. As you practice sportsmanship, you'll also be teaching the others and elevating the experience for all.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (April 12). While you don't mind being your own biggest fan, you don't have to be this year because the world gladly fills that spot, cheering on and on. Things that were once far off suddenly feel within reach. More highlights: You'll make your mark with a project that defies expectations. Projects show you taking no prisoners and leaving no doubt about who runs the show. A romantic connection will challenge you in all the right ways. Capricorn and Gemini adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 4, 9, 26, 18 and 35.

CELEBRITY PROFILES: When he's not crashing Jimmy Fallon's monologue on the Tonight Show, David Letterman's long list of projects include a Netflix talk show and a TV channel on Samsung TV Plus. The Aries comedian and late-night king was born under a Capricorn Moon that squares his Sun. From his innovative approach to late-night television to his candid reflections in later years, Letterman's unique blend of humor, wit and authenticity has left an indelible mark on the entertainment industry.
