The Scorpio moon and sun combination is powerful. Attractions will be strong and of a physical nature. This will be an intense day, so don’t be surprised if you find yourself pushing your relationships to the extreme. Affections will continue to run deep, or even get deeper, as a result of the truths that will come up light over the next two days.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You’re feeling good to go. If you know something won’t work, don’t pursue it. Trick yourself into becoming productive by giving yourself special treats. What you put on paper will impress the boss, so scribble your ideas down.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Your listening skills will become your source of power. Better communication between family members will save you hours of trouble, so make sure you are hearing others correctly and that they understand you, too.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Details that may go awry will actually be lucky breaks in disguise. Of course, your attitude makes a big difference. People you meet through your friends will become your most important contacts, so be impressionable.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Your dream last night could be assign of approaching good fortune. Your patience will somehow be rewarded. Close friends may ask inconvenient or unusual favors – find the most diplomatic way to say "no."

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Romantic encounters will be inevitable. You’ll get the answers you want if you phrase questions in an appealing way. A visit to a relative’s home will bring money and help for you and your children. Remember to say "thank you."

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (November 13). You’ll branch out this year, showing talent in arenas you hardly knew existed before. Collaborate on a creative project with an intelligent peer, and you’ll open doors that were formerly closed. Next month is one of the luckiest money months ever, especially for hooking up with people who can promote you. Your lucky love sign is Cancer. Your lucky numbers are: 5, 22, 31, 10 and 3.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Your sense of humor and ability to put things in perspective will help more everything along. An important investment or real estate tip will come your way. Save or plan now so that you may take advantage of opportunities later.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You’re in the spotlight, and you’ll feel like sharing it by the afternoon. Self-discipline may fly out the window, but you have the best intentions. Indulge yourself. Windfalls this evening may be connected to travel or a new business.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). It’s not too late to give your share to the organization or charity of your choice. Although you doubt your personal magnetism, people believe you are a star. Loving words will make you feel secure this evening.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Your authority on the job is obvious, and you don’t have to remind anyone. You may even be promoted for getting the job done quickly and cheaply. A warm greeting is all it takes to win new friends and partners.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). One phone call will solve a financial dilemma. Exciting people will light up the social arena tonight. Your co-workers could be jealous and need your generous attention in order to get over their disappointments.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Once you make up your mind, you cannot be manipulated – but watch others try anyway. You’ll be asked to explain a past action. Your partner will be in a listening, giving mood, so tell a little more than you might usually!

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Your frustration this morning is evidence of your changing necessities. A small idea will grow and take on a life of its own. Invite lucky into your home by getting rid of what you don’t use. Organize your life.

ASTROLOGICAL QUESTIONS: "I’m a Virgo. I met a Sagittarius guy recently. Are we compatible? Also, I’m planning to create a local paper. Should I go for it?"

Virgo and Sagittarius are two distinctly different creatures. Sagittarius sees beauty in the details and can make something great out of something small. Sagittarius sees the beauty in broad strokes and feels most alive when moving, striving and traveling. Still, you admire each other for your differences and can have a long relationship if you practice being tolerant. It’s because of your differences that you make a great team, each helping out with what the other needs. Because of this, you complement each other well.

As far as the newspaper goes, you’re the perfect one to relay local news to the public. Your detail-oriented mind will find the actual mechanics of running a paper easy. You also have a powerful way of sharing your vision and executing your plans. The hardest part for you is finding advertisers, and for this task, it would be wise for you to hire someone who loves sales and journalism. A Gemini could be a huge help in starting your paper.

CELEBRITY PROFILES: Singer K. D. Lang embodies Scorpio’s qualities when she socks it to unethical company by making a public address of the truth. This could happen in March of 2002. Scorpio is devoted to the truth and will always be the one to speak out against anyone who is lying to the public. Lang has her moon in showstopping Leo, which translates into charisma that won’t ever quit. She’ll gain even more respect next year.
