Aries (March 21st to April 19th)

It may be hard to know a “want” from a “need,” especially toward the end of the week.  And so you might get more caught up in your feelings, especially if you think you’re being denied what you believe is necessary…and it may not be.  This could lead to locking horns with folks (rather than locking lips with one…or more) when you could be dealing with what’s really happening. Needs are often primal, as if you would die without those things, like air, water, food, freedom or your autonomy.  They are the things that must happen. Wants, on the other hand, make life “mo betta.” Wants can be negotiated; needs usually can’t. Don’t neglect your needs this week while getting all snatched up about what you want. You may end up doing more harm than good to yourself and an important relationship.
