Life isn't always fair, but at least the division of labor can be -- maybe not in the world, but in a household, friend group or department? It seems like it should be doable. The Labor Day Saturn transit into empathetic Pisces reminds: If one person keeps picking up the slack, frustration builds. Take a moment to check in: Is everyone doing their part? A quick fix today avoids resentment later.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You will be at the exact same location as someone else at the same time with the same people and have a completely different takeaway. Because experience is made by what you notice. And you're noticing what no one else is today.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Oddly enough, the relationship you're building becomes stronger because of what you subtract. Taking away something like a formality, a distraction or an expectation will fortify what you have with another person.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Love is invisible, but you see it anyway because it animates everything it touches. You don't even have to have your eyes open to sense the love in the air today, as it so obviously moves around and through you.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). You know the weight of secrets. When someone confides in you today, you won't take it lightly. Trust is a responsibility you honor. Your response will be measured, respectful and surprisingly healing for all.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You'll click with someone who shares your sense of humor. The connection isn't just about laughs; it's about recognition. You'll feel seen in a way that's rare and energizing. This moment might seem light, but everyone involved is going to remember it.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You'll find yourself in a situation where groupthink is strong. Everyone is agreeing, maybe playing it safe or staying on script. It would be easy to just blend in. But you feel something different, and when you speak up, however briefly, you will shift the entire dynamic.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). The line between sharing and oversharing will get blurred. Most won't mind knowing a little more than they need to. A simple act of politeness and discretion will go a long way. It all stems from the real respect you have for others.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). A little imagination or unexpected fun keeps life vibrant. When everything gets too serious, rigid or practical, it can start to feel lifeless. Whimsy brings in creativity and an invigorating sense of magic.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You naturally bring out the best in people today, not by pushing them but by believing in them. There's something about you that makes others want to meet your standards. Good behavior rises naturally because people are inspired around you.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). If you want to know, you'll find out. If you ask for the truth, you'll get it. But what's your rush? It will be very creative to linger in the unknown, where fantasy forms. Later you'll compare your hopes with the reality.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You'll be attuned to your moods, not just living mindlessly through them but wondering how to help yourself feel better. As the sky watches clouds drift through, so you watch your thoughts -- some puffy, some dark, all moving along.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Too many options equals being stuck. Trust yourself. Narrow your choices down quickly to the top three, then investigate a bit, and pick one. Quick decisions are better than getting mired in the minutiae. In the end, none of these options are really all that different.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (Sept. 1). Ever the generous soul, this is the year you must train yourself to focus on your own wishes; that's when things really come together quickly for the greater good. As you streamline intent, effort and energy, it will be as though you have a genie who materializes your desire. More highlights: You'll be deeply known and loved. Romance or reinvigorated connection adds zing. You get help augmenting the financial end. Gemini and Taurus adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 20, 9, 30, 31 and 15.

CELEBRITY PROFILES: The work never lets up for Zendaya, who has upcoming projects that span worlds and franchises, from "Spider-Man" to "Shrek" to "Euphoria" and even making an odyssey through the Odyssey. Virgos do tend to thrive in a steady workflow and even find health inside the demands, grace in the challenge and fortification in the sharing of effort. Zendaya was born under a high-energy Aries moon and a natal Venus and Mars in domestic Cancer.
