We're in a golden moment of the Leo solar journey when kitten energy is new and the closing moves of Venus in Gemini play up the lightness of flirtatious swipes, breezy detachment and adorable casualness. When Venus enters Cancer, everything will soften and deepen. Love the levity while it lasts. Use it to get to know someone in the spirit of fun.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Pretending eats energy. Sometimes you don't even realize how you're changing yourself to fit the situation. Today, you'll see it and stop. No over-curating yourself today. Let go of roles that no longer serve so you can be stronger, freer and more available for what matters.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You've done the hard part -- faced the feelings, made the decisions, brought yourself right to the edge of something new. Now the door is open. All that's left is the step. You're ready. One breath, one step, and it's on.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). This load you carry? It's real. But the power is in your framing. You choose how to see things, what to call them and what they mean to you, and this makes all the difference between lifting a "burden" or lifting a "gift."

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Your heart is on the line, and that's exactly where it belongs. You're made of strong stuff. Not fragile -- forged. Go ahead and feel it all. Risk doesn't scare you when the potential prize is love, sweet love.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). It is a mystic tradition to see joy, awe and unstructured time as key elements of divine connection. Whether you think you have the time or not, you really can afford to lose track of yourself while making art, being in nature, dancing or daydreaming.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Your reputation as a hard worker is undisputed, but hard work isn't always required. Knowing the right thing to do -- the thing that will flip the script, raise the scenery, transcend the limits -- is not about work, but about awareness.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). A thought takes you deep. It's interesting to visit those depths, but you don't want to live there. Feel it, name it, and learn from it. Then make a move. Your mind is built for both analysis and action.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). There are those who like you but don't know you. Being appreciated for your image is still being appreciated. It's not exactly what you're looking for, but there's power here you can leverage to get closer to what you really want.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You've got options. You've got angles. You could spin this 10 ways and make all of them interesting. But one version feels best in your body, and that's the one to follow. Trust the story that feels easy to live inside.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You're feeling your way through the day like a musician learning a song. Keep moving toward what resonates. Tune in to what people mean, what they hide, what they're aching for. This is your native language -- the one you sing without words.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You care big. You always have. But now you're realizing how much your own rest, fuel and space matter in the mix. Fill your own cup without guilt. That's what allows you to stay strong and show up for others.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). It's mix-and-match energy today. The loud will be asked to listen. The soft will speak up. Everyone's stretching. You're right in the middle of it, finding new dimensions of yourself through brave moves.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (July 28). This year brings exciting invitations and secret passages into worlds you only speculated about before. It will turn out that the places and states of being you dreamed of are viable, real places to live, love and work. More highlights: You'll stumble upon thrilling knowledge, collect friendships like rare coins, and use your creativity to build something totally unique. Virgo and Aquarius adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 7, 15, 3, 26 and 11.

CELEBRITY PROFILES: Cultural historians and civic advocates still point to the work of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis as having shaped the White House and New York's cityscape by preserving Grand Central Station, Lafayette Square, the Rose Garden and much more. The initiatives of the Leo first lady laid the foundations for modern historic preservation movements. The enduring legacy of "Jackie O" lives in fashion runways, civic campaigns, streaming dramas, meme threads and symphonic stages.
