In all human history, there's no record of a truly "fair" society where resources and power were evenly shared. The so-called egalitarian tribes still had gender roles, internal pecking orders and exclusions. At best, we've occasionally made improvements, or at least strived for them, though never quite arrived. The transformational energy of Scorpio season reminds us that even in unfair systems, change is not only possible — it's inevitable.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Two people will do the same job — one will leave an impression beyond the job itself. That's you. It has to do with the manner of approach. People will notice not just the finished product but also your style, heart and approach. You'll exhibit grace under pressure and keep the playful spirit alive this week. Your attitude lifts all.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Your emotions aren't wrong or right, they just are. They can help steer you to your values, or they can just go off for no reason, like a faulty smoke alarm. Take a warm, accepting attitude toward yourself and your feelings. You can have a fundamental respect for your humanity even as you realize you've made mistakes. You're doing your best.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Mastery isn't only about outcome; it's about process. This week, you dedicate yourself to making your processes artful and unique. You may still be far from the finish line, but because you put thought and care into a better workflow, efficiency will prevail. Ultimately, the end result will sing.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Notice when a person is the type to protect their ego at all costs. Defensiveness, no capacity for self-reflection, low emotional intelligence — these are traits in some people that make relationships challenging. Search for work-arounds and you will find them. And in the future, try not to seek close relationships where a vibe like this is the norm.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You've built years of life around commitments and loyalties, not all of which are fair to you. This week, you may see certain relationships differently, recognizing that you've been conditioned to tolerate too much. The bar of "normal" was set too low. With awareness comes the power to raise your standards.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). If worth is recognized as inherent, then people give from overflow instead of obligation. Rest and recharge as needed this week. You'll still have plenty of star moments, feeling good about working and helping, but you're not doing those things to earn permission to exist. These are expressions of who you already are.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Your belief in your own luck is what makes you lucky. Focused on finding your next opportunity, you'll scan the scene, primed to notice possibilities. Expectation shapes perception. You'll be open, receptive and creative, and this is what turns ordinary chances into good fortune.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Your imagination is a double gift. It will soothe you when you need it, creating scenarios of peace, support and ideal outcomes. Also, you'll imagine things that don't exist in reality but should, and might, because you dared to dream them. The generative power of your inner life will help more than just you.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). This week, you'll be drawn to unusual matches. A person or situation that's perfect according to your checklist may not create the chemistry you find so necessary, and a person or situation matching almost none of your preferences could fascinate you. Polite compatibility isn't enough to create a lasting connection.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You've carried enough. How do you know? You simply declare it, and then you'll feel it in your bones — how you deserve delight, respect and ease. Release those who drain you. Let them solve their own problems. Let distance work for you. Suddenly, you'll realize just how free and creative you can be.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Some people can't be wrong, because being wrong threatens the fragile scaffolding holding up their self-concept. So they flip the script: You're the one who is wrong, or "sensitive" or "negative" — not them. Steer clear of unwinnable arguments and you will have the freedom you so deserve.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Work that doesn't come with compensation isn't work — it's either charity, leisure, penance or oppression. Label it correctly to avoid feeling resentment and to avoid overextending yourself or misunderstanding where your time and energy are really going. Honesty and clarity keep your life in balance.

THIS WEEK'S BIRTHDAYS: It's a Year of Shining Consistency of Effort. You're driven to mastery of a subject and will go out of your way to educate yourself and practice to the point of greatness. Invention is also part of your year, and you'll make something original. A relationship inspires you to take bold steps toward independence and self-expression. More highlights: savvy financial moves — some are things you try out and get lucky with; others are careful applications of lessons you pick up on inside a system or from a mentor. You'll soon be living with more freedom than you thought possible.
