Saturn, the planet associated with discipline, karma, and maturity, governs Capricorn. As an Earth sign, Capricorn individuals are pragmatic, responsible, and determined to achieve their goals. It is no surprise that Capricorns are often seen as the most likely to succeed in their lifetimes. Whether they savor their successesover time or achieve victories early on, this sign is renowned for its strong work ethic.
Taurus understands that being slow and steady leads to success, which is what distinguishes them from others.

As a result, they manifest victories through perseverance, strong willpower, and focused efforts.

When faced with obstacles, they don't hesitate to problem-solve, strategize, and put in the necessary effort to overcome them.

Cancer often gets a reputation for being overly emotional, but their sensitivity is often underestimated as a problem, not a strength. Their relatable personality, nurturing nature, and likable demeanor make them truly unforgettable. As a cardinal sign, Cancer is not one to passively wait for what they want to come to them. Instead, this Water sign uses their intuitive insight to devise strategies that lead to their inevitable success.
Virgos are known for their ability to get the job done accurately and efficiently. As an Earth sign, they possess an exceptional attention to detail and strive for perfection in everything they do. Their fear of failure drives them to pursue their goals vigorously, resulting in a strong desire for success, achievements, and recognition for their hard work. It is basically impossible to ask a Virgo to take a back seat; they have a strong need for control and often take the lead in directing themselves and others toward a structured and orderly environment.
Libra is an unexpected success story. Although they appear gentle, diplomatic, and charming, prioritizing interpersonal connections, they possess an uplifting aura that contributes to their achievements. Regardless of their popularity (which they usually have), they know how to present themselves as interesting, likable, and trustworthy when necessary. As an Air sign, Libra is personable and adept at finding ways to relate to their clients, networks, and others.

Scorpios are passionate and determined individuals. When they set high goals for themselves, they often achieve not only what they desire but even more. At times, they may become fixated on love, relationships, or other creative and romantic pursuits. They crave deep intimacy. However, when they commit fully to their career, vocational goals, or broader ambitions, they become unstoppable. All or nothing, they won't accept defeat.
Leo is a bold and passionate leader. As a fixed sign, they pursue their fiery ambitions with determination and won't back down easily. Although their pride can occasionally hold them back from stepping outside their comfort zone—especially when they are unsure of their success on the first attempt—Leo is well-known for their sunny disposition and strong leadership abilities. They are great at delegating tasks, assuming boss-level roles, and being a cheerleader.

Aquarius seeks to redefine what it means to be established. They challenge societal norms regarding success and advocate for an individual-oriented mindset for everyone. Although they may not pursue traditional paths to victory, they ultimately achieve their goals in the long run. They simply prefer not to engage in society's conventional games.
Gemini individuals tend to follow their intellect, which is a testament to their intelligence. However, they can often struggle with indecisiveness, leading them to be somewhat flaky when it comes to fulfilling their roles or responsibilities. They are easily distracted by new ideas and options. Nevertheless, their jack-of-all-trades personality allows them to explore various avenues of success. While they may not adhere to a single, tried-and-true path throughout their careers, they can certainly find fulfillment in their diverse experiences.

Sagittarius is known for its free-spirited nature and often shies away from conventional paths that feel limiting. Their fear of being trapped leads them to prioritize their freedom when making decisions. As a result, those born under this sign may take longer to determine their personal definition of success. However, once they find their path, they excel, bringing passion, excitement, and adventure to their chosen field.
While Pisces can certainly achieve success in their lifetime, they often become lost in a world of dreams and fantasies. They may get distracted by romantic relationships, personal commitments, or idealistic visions, which can cause them to drift without taking meaningful action at times. However, when they focus on grounding their visions and turning them into reality, they have the ability to inspire creatively, change lives, and heal others.

Family Drama Unfolds as Bride and Groom Invite Nephew but Exclude Twin Nieces from Wedding
The bride and groom argue that because their twin nieces are only about a year old, they'll "summon a considerable amount of attention"NEED TO KNOW Family tension has risen four months before a couple's wedding because they invited their nephew to their ceremony but want to exclude their nieces The bride-to-be explained that her sister-in-law's 1-year-old twin daughters would "summon a considerable amount of attention," taking away guests' focus, but that the 6-year-old son would be a great "flower boy" Now, the bride and groom have been given an "ultimatum": "either all her kids come or none will"A soon-to-be bride and groom are refusing to invite their nieces to their wedding, sparking family tension before their big day. In a post on Reddit's "Wedding Drama" forum, the bride-to-be, 32, shared that she and her fiancé, 34, are dealing with family drama just four months before their wedding because her sister-in-law is insistent that all of her children be invited despite the couple previously telling her that only one of her three kids was welcome. The bride's sister-in-law has a 6-year-old son and almost 1-year-old twin daughters. While the bride and groom would "love" to have the boy as their "flower boy," the groom does not want the baby girls there because they "summon a considerable amount of attention" and guests would be "focused" on them. Before the twins were born, the bride's sister-in-law told her that she "didn't want her kids" at the wedding because she was "looking forward to knowing at the 12-month mark there would be a child-free evening where she could let loose." So, she "agreed" to her son being a part of the ceremony, then being driven the "short distance" home afterward to join his sisters and baby sitter during the reception. The mother-of-three seems to have "forgotten" her conversation with the bride because she's been "shopping for dresses for the twins for the wedding day." "I've been gentle but I have said that it was only the 6-year-old that was planned to be there and I wasn't too keen on the younger kids being there," the bride wrote. Now, both the bride's sister-in-law and mother-in-law are "upset" with the couple over their baby-free wedding ceremony decision. The mother-in-law is pushing for the "whole family" to be invited so that everyone can be included in the "nice" group family wedding photos. Similarly, the sister-in-law believes her twin daughters "deserve" to be at the wedding. "[Sister-in-law] has also said she doesn't want the six-year-old to be attending events without the twins because he has had trouble adjusting to them and is always asking to leave them behind," the bride said. "SIL (sister-in-law) doesn't want to encourage that behavior by having him attend anything without them." The bride's sister-in-law has given her an "ultimatum": "either all her kids come or none will." The Redditor feels like she was "dismissed" by her in-laws, and says the "tense" conversation was left "unresolved." Although she and her fiancé have offered compromises, such as taking group photos the night before or morning after the wedding to include the twins, their suggestions have been "completely dismissed." "They've tried to change plans without letting me know and then tried to guilt trip me when I called it out," the bride said. "Now it kind of feels like an ultimatum is being set and the whole attitude around it has me wanting to put my foot down and push back."

The majority of Reddit users in the comments section said that the bride was not overreacting by excluding the twins from her wedding, and argued that the best solution would be to keep the wedding entirely child-free. A few people also said it was important for the bride to set boundaries with her in-laws before getting married. "I almost feel like a 6yo little boy would be just as much of a loud distraction as two 1yos and your entire wedding is child-free anyways so it would be odd that one single small child is the exception to that," the top comment reads. "Just avoid the whole thing and leave all the kids out of it." Another individual wrote, "Just know if you give in this time, SIL (sister-in-law) and MIL (mother-in-law) will not stop here. Every single decision you make will have to go thru them. Have a kid-free wedding period. When they try to back peddle, tell them this was THEIR DECISION."

Maybe It's Time to Make Peace With Your Smartphone
This much we know: Smartphones are making us dumber. Compelling essays suggest we memorize handscratched poetry in the morning before opening Pandora's inbox, and warn that the declining literacy of the digitally oversaturated threatens democracy. Phones are expensive. So are digital detox retreats where devices get squirreled in safe deposit boxes as if they were the house deed or Grandpa's gold watch. This summer, as an experiment, I decided to go the other way and submit utterly to the pleasures and terrors of the phone when alone, without self-recrimination or judgment. Jerry Lewis had his telethon. This would be a cyberbender. Benefiting nothing. I followed dozens of cats on TikTok, among my middle-aged cohort the most socially scorned of apps. I soothed myself to sleep scrolling Reddit posts or listening to podcasts — in full blast of that hot, bad, blue melatonin-sucking light. I clicked on every awful news alert. I clocked more screen time than my 17-year-old son, who — while not quite as restrained as the corduroy-clad Luddite youth chronicled in The New York Times — at least has the decency to silence his notifications. And I read, partly on the phone, two books (gadzooks) published last month by internet personalities. Both offer glimmers of hope that this little gizmo is not completely destroying society.
