Libra will haggle down to half price at the Bit Pazar, Virgo will fall for a yellow tractor in the hallway

Aries

Today Aries won't send the five-minute voice message recorded while driving. They'll delete it and write three sentences instead. The friend will reply within a minute - the five-minute voice messages didn't get an answer last month either.

Taurus

Today Taurus will help their father stack the winter firewood in the basement. Dad has had a system for thirty years - bark up, thinner logs against the wall - and won't let a single log lie the wrong way. Taurus won't argue. By lunch the basement will smell of oak, and Dad will say "that'll do", which from him is the highest praise.

Gemini

Today Gemini will walk into the supermarket with a list written on paper and buy only what's on it - even the chocolate by the till will stay on the shelf. The bill will be a third smaller than usual. In the evening they'll crave chocolate. They'll hold out until tomorrow.

Cancer

Today Cancer will bring the winter jackets up from the basement and, in one pocket, find twenty denars and a cinema ticket from last December. They'll remember who they saw that film with. They won't send a message. They'll just put the ticket in a drawer instead of the bin.

Leo

Today Leo should switch off the camera in the online meeting and listen. Not one comment, not one joke to liven things up. The meeting will end twelve minutes early, and colleagues will assume something's wrong with Leo's internet.

Virgo

Today Virgo will let their partner pick the picture for the hallway wall. The partner will choose something Virgo would never hang - a yellow tractor in a green meadow. They'll hang it two centimetres crooked. Virgo will look at it every morning and, to their own surprise, the tractor will become a favourite.

Libra

Today at Skopje's Bit Pazar, Libra will haggle over an old brass lamp as if they'd been doing it all their life. The seller will start at two thousand denars, Libra will stop at a thousand and won't budge. The seller will complain he's been robbed. Libra will buy him a coffee, and they'll both walk away happy.

Scorpio

Today Scorpio will lose the argument about who told the joke first. They'll laugh and pay for another round.

Sagittarius

Today Sagittarius will volunteer for the job everyone at the company avoids - sorting out the archive in the basement. They'll start with the folders from 2011 and by noon will be covered in dust. In one folder they'll find a plan by the company's founder, written in fountain pen and never carried out. It'll be the first thing they bring up at the next meeting.

Capricorn

Today Capricorn will agree to go to Ohrid with friends for the weekend, even though the weekend already had a plan in a spreadsheet. They won't ask how much the accommodation costs or who's driving. They'll pack the backpack in ten minutes. When was the last time they set off somewhere without a spreadsheet?

Aquarius

Today Aquarius will hear the upstairs neighbour practising the trumpet again and, instead of banging on the ceiling with a broom, will go up to ask what he's playing. They'll find out he's preparing for an audition on Monday. By evening they'll know the tune by heart, and on Monday they'll be the first to ask how it went.

Pisces

Today Pisces will work out how much the office vending machine coffee costs them - per month, then per year. The number will ruin their break. From tomorrow they'll bring a thermos from home. Colleagues will laugh for one day, and from Monday two of them will be bringing their own.
