The astrological aspect called the sextile links planets in elements that play well together -- fire with air, earth with water. On this day of multiple sextiles, we're drawn to complementary talents, to those whose gaps fit our gifts and whose strengths steady our own soft spots. Remember, diverse groups are always the strongest, especially when acceptance and a common goal are at the heart of it.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You may feel like you're speaking a language only a few understand. But keep talking anyway. You won't know who those "few" are until you've run through a few that aren't a match.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Are you afraid to ask for more? It may strike some as greedy, but any talent can be used for good. When you ask for more because your group needs it, has earned it or is sure to use it well, the ask becomes a no-brainer.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You'll wear mystery like a crown today. People will read between your words, hungry for the rest. The smallest curve of your mouth carries the weight of a hundred untold stories.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Usually, the line between enjoyment and over-indulgence is easy to see, but circumstances are different today, so the boundaries may seem invisible, or perhaps extremely visible and yet somehow not important.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Even when you're trying to play it low-key, the spotlight finds you. All you have to do to make a difference today is stand where you are, rooted and certain. Watch how people orient themselves. Your influence shifts the room.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Your work is becoming indispensable to someone. What you do for them makes their world brighter and their experience smoother. And though it's a behind-the-scenes position, you'll still be acknowledged by those whose opinion matters.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Being prepared and capable improves your odds for success. You feel driven to practice, sharpen your skills and strategize. You can't undo yesterday's loss, but tomorrow is still yours to win.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You don't need to try to fix anyone's problem to give them the experience of being cared for and recognized. Just lean into your natural tendency to nurture and celebrate people.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). There's a temptation to spread your attention across too many projects or areas. This won't leave you with the time and energy to dig in. And if you can't dig in, you'll lose traction, and nothing will move forward with real power. Choose one focus.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You have more power than you'll use. You could push harder, take more or dominate, but instead you choose restraint. It's compassionate, but it's also strategic, because in the long run, overplaying your hand has consequences.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Yes, you know what you can do. But if you do only that, you'll be masterfully bored. Work in a 2:1 blend -- two parts seasoned expertise and one part novel twist. It's a recipe for adventurous and even thrilling work.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Your natural impulse today might be to rush through and sacrifice detail for speed. You may have to consciously tell your attention span to slow down and respect the more intricate vision your other sensibilities are going for.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (Sept. 12). Welcome to your Year of Triumphant Action, animated by courage and punctuated by victory. You'll initiate what others only talk about. You'll build things and be repaid in treasures more valuable than money, but also in money. More highlights: The pursuit of an ideal sparks new relationships. You'll surpass your own record. You'll improve a property. Sagittarius and Scorpio adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 30, 20, 14, 16 and 2.
