In these final days of a solar cycle, Neptune brings the themes of Pisces season to a finer point. Time isn't as linear as it seems. Every moment holds echoes of what's to come. The future isn't some distant mystery; it's already taking shape in the choices, patterns and moments unfolding around you. "When you cut into the present, the future leaks out." -- William Burroughs

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Love and loss go together, intertwined from the start. The deeper the connection, the greater the risk -- of change, separation and grief. But that's part of what makes it profound -- choosing to love despite the certainty of impermanence.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Who is the first person who pops to mind when you hear a song, see something funny or experience something new? This person's absence strikes you like a missing piece. Life marches on but feels slightly off-kilter without them. Put a visit on the books.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). There's a dynamic at work. The themes: responsibility, awareness and fairness in teamwork, with an obvious contrast between those who pull their weight and those who don't. A rebalancing of effort and accountability is needed.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). The problems get solved by focusing on the right things. But how do we know what "the right things" are? They're the ones that make everything else easier or irrelevant. The ones that, once handled, clear the path forward.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Youthful energy will be invigorating to be around. You'll lend guidance to the next generation, and the benefit will be mutual and far-reaching. You'll find your own wisdom reflected back in surprising ways.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). We are so often children in a grocery store cart -- steering, but not really. And though it's not moving according to your hand, grip the wheel like it matters. Truly, if you pretend hard enough, the unseen forces of momentum will favor you.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Is this a time of want or a time of plenty? Of course, you have plenty. But the real question is, do you have plenty of what you want? To get there, you may need to shed what no longer serves you and free yourself from unnecessary dependencies.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Attraction is the most powerful force in the universe. Crucial on massive and minuscule levels, attraction transcends scale, holds the planets in orbit, governs the behavior of atoms and has a lot to do with your chosen destiny today.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). When brute strength falls short, patience rises to take its place. It's the quiet power of persistence that wears down the hardest barriers, one soft touch at a time, turning mountains into sand.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Nothing slows progress like attachments. If you're holding on to old things, relationships or ways of thinking, you'll be too tethered or encumbered to pursue the new possibilities. Release yourself. Change won't be a loss so much as a trade.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). The company you keep will shape how you see yourself, how you approach challenges and what you believe you're capable of achieving. That's why it's so important to regularly assess who you're surrounding yourself with, like you do intuitively today.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Struggles have turned into strengths. You've become the person you once needed. Your deepest desire for support, kindness and understanding didn't go unmet -- rather, you fulfilled the order, both for yourself and someone else.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (March 18). Your birthday brings a surge of personal power and fun things to take charge of. People let you know what they like about you and your work, helping you identify the overlap between what you enjoy doing and what people want from you. More highlights: A venture into nature, many intriguing and invigorating rhythms in the dance of love, and a lucrative change for your business. Taurus and Virgo adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 5, 6, 26, 41 and 2.

CELEBRITY PROFILES: Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine recently rejoined "The Voice" as a coach for its 27th season. Levine was born when the sun and Mars were in Pisces and the moon was in sensual Scorpio, a position that indicates magnetic appeal, soulful expression and an existential worldview. As he sings in the song "Middle Ground," "I need peace, I need hope, I need guidance, I need more than myself, I need light, I need life, I need what I never felt."
