Horoscope: March 7

Aries (March 21-April 19): Today brings a bouquet of pleasurable moments, though they will all come disguised as everyday events.

Taurus (April 20-May 20): You don’t need a beauty overhaul. And yet, spending more time and money on your physical self will bring you the wonderful sense of luxury that you’ve been missing lately.

Gemini (May 21-June 21): Focus on your own achievements and you’ll begin to see yourself differently.

Cancer (June 22-July 22): There is no such thing as an attention thief in your realm, since you give your love freely to anyone who needs it and otherwise mind your own business.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): A sense of meaning is not something you strive for to get bonus points in life. It’s actually a necessity, as important to your survival as food and water.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): As you peruse reading material you wouldn’t normally look into, you’ll find gems of knowledge that are both personally significant and enjoyable.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Decide and make something happen. The sense of control that comes with this act will empower you.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Look on your past with compassion and optimism. Even if you weren’t thinking very positively back then, you can retroactively change your experience by looking at the best parts now.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Spending money on others usually makes you much happier than does spending money on yourself. Today is an exception.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Listening to someone is a gift you can give that doesn’t cost you any money. You’ll have an hour to spare, and a loved one could really use your ear.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Charity doesn’t feel like an effort for you. Altruism and giving are a part of your everyday life -- it’s just who you are.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Why is it you’re able to find the gems in a situation that has others griping endlessly? Happy people like you see opportunities that the disgruntled miss.

Today’s birthday (March 7): Helping others is the key to helping yourself. You make the world a better place this year, dedicating yourself to improving the experience of your loved ones, as well as your community members. Your lucky numbers are 8, 31, 20, 44 and 18.
