ARIES (March 21-April 19). Speak up, and tell others what bothers you–disgruntled silence ruins love and business. Confidence sells an idea more than the idea itself. Don’t pass up a chance to step into the spotlight tonight. You’re more than ready.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Sign up for an art class, or bring your dancing shoes to a new night club. Don’t be surprised if people invite themselves over – everybody knows you’re quite an entertainer. Put your brilliant ideas into action in a concrete and realistic way.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You’re a risk taker in business, and you’ll make money soon enough. Be patient, and don’t overwork yourself. Tonight, your love life call for absolute maturity. Paying vigorous attention to the small details of a project will bring you luck.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). All it takes is one good idea to get you out of a bind. Do well in seemingly minute tasks, and you’ll save yourself time later. It’s very exciting to share secret desires with your mate, but its detrimental to share secret histories.
LEO (July 23- Aug. 22). You’ll earn plenty of money through increased sales or a new client. You’ll realize that a problem at work is really a godsend. A Leo invites you to a party. You must spoil yourself first in order to be in the mood to share anything with others.
TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (July 12). It’s a year of increased drive and ambition. Job conditions will improve greatly in October. Monetary success comes through the arts, counseling or real estate sales during November. Career responsibilities abound through January and set the groundwork for a major move upward.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22- Dec. 21). Money and big assets are accumulated over time, so be patient. Don’t bother with get-rich-quick schemes or quick relationship fixes. Friendships worth keeping may require you to make amends tonight.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). A partygoing friend knows how to persuade you to stray from your work – be strong, and hold your ground. For excellent luck in the career realm., a Cancer is most supportive. Your political beliefs lead you to support a local philanthropist.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Your confidence is high, which begins a new achievement cycle. Your sweetheart will help you get ahead if you’re willing to work hard, too. Give up an approval-seeking mentally. Ask for opinions, not for permission.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Don’t sit back and watch opportunities pass you by. Take matters into your own hands. Fighting for the rights of others is featured. If you are persistent, an entanglement of the heart unravels in your favor. Don’t be too critical of others.
ASTROLOGICAL QUESTIONS: "Can you tell more about my daughter, a Pisces born in 1990? She has so much energy, it sometimes gets her into trouble because she doesn’t know how to channel it. I want her to choose a direction, but how?
A Pisces with Aries fiery influence in her chart tells me she’s a powerful child. Your question is a natural one, as she needs a strong basis of preparation for her life, which, like most children born in 1990, is a purposeful one. A highly disciplined and ambitious Mars/Saturn conjunction indicates that she’s a born teacher (an "old soul," some would say), so let her show you what she needs. Guide her in the manner of the Eastern teachers, who believe that we each have a master within ourselves. Ask for her advice. When you honor her wisdom, she’ll learn to honor her own. Make it safe for her to review her own performance in a learning activity, and come to a decision about what to work on next and in what area she needs to improve. She’ll show maturity where her own development is concerned, and you’ll be proud. As far as activities go, she has a natural gift for dancing and gymnastics.
CELEBRITY PROFILES: Actor/comedian Robin Williams has both a Cancer sun and moon, bringing double the sensitivity and intuition, too! Home and children are what make Cancer natives feel most comfortable, but with Mercury and Venus in showstopping Leo, you can bet that Williams is just as entertaining at home as he is in the movies! This low-key year will be followed by a blockbuster phenomenon in 2002. Keep an eye out!
