SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Weigh the pros and cons before you proceed. Consider who is advantageous and who will hold you back. Balance and integrity will be your best ways forward. Refuse to let emotions, power or money lead you in the wrong direction. An offer will lack substance. 3 stars
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Refuse to let anyone’s rhetoric fluster you or entice you with fake facts. Don’t invest in someone or something when you should support your efforts. When in doubt, take a pass and watch from the sideline. Focus on becoming the best version of yourself. 3 stars

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Listen, evaluate and fact-check before you participate or commit to something that has appeal but lacks substance. Make your voice heard, network, do whatever you can to gather evidence and pin down what’s true. Say no to a lofty sales pitch. 4 stars
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Go to the source if you want the truth. Prepare to fight for what you want, and align yourself with people who share your sentiments. You’ll attract money, power and culprits eager to take advantage of you. Put reason first. 4 stars
