This week is a vibrant bouquet of movement, creativity, and community—there’s a garage sale around every corner, a paintbrush in every hand, and a candlelit glass of wine ready to help you wind down. Whether you’re diving into Earth Day cleanup or dominating Open Mic Night, the stars say: bloom boldly, sparkle brightly, and always stop for snacks.

Aries (March 21 - April 19)
Aries, your energy this week is as unstoppable as a garage sale shopper at 6 a.m. Channel that fire into the Team 5k Running Group or go beast mode with the 4x4x48 Challenge at Watkins Mill—because why jog when you can dominate a challenge? Refuel your soul at Open Mic Night at The Atlas Saloon, where your confidence will bring the crowd to their feet (or at least raise a beer).
Lucky Local: The slightly-used treadmill you score at the City-Wide Garage Sale—still counts.

Taurus, your senses are having a field day. From the Four Course Wine Dinner with Adam Puchta to the Donnici’s Italian Deli Grand Opening, your taste buds are on a tour of pure joy.

Wrap it all up with a tarot reading that hits just a little too close at Tea and Tarot—you love that.
Lucky Local: The antique book you “accidentally” find at the garage sale. Fate, clearly.
