ARIES (March 21-April 19). A career boost will be the result of your high-profile project. Your kind actions and words may bring love and special gratitude to you. A struggling Libra needs your guidance – don’t hold back. Embrace your priorities.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You may have to spend money to make it. You have ideas that will appeal to a number of impressionable people. Enjoy golden romance and lasting love when you are ready to accept it. Pursue an old interest with new passion.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Problems in the working environment may quickly become yours. Everyone gets his or her just desserts, so you might as well accept them. A relaxed evening is all you need to unwind. White bread is the enemy of your fitness goal.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Too much of your time is concentrated on efforts that are not likely to pay off. Talk things over with a loved one or colleague – it’s too stressful to continue hiding. Express yourself. Note: Don’t pass up the things that make life fun.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). The rewards of an investment may include something that perks up your romantic life. A good friendship requires thoughtfulness and shared activities. People who merely want to dump their problems on you are not doing you any favors.
TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (April 16). Passion will return to your life in a new form. This month, build your self-esteem. A relocation, even if you end up moving a mile away, will have positive benefits on your lifestyle and social status. Have the confidence to make a windfall with June’s opportunities. Take a chance on love in July – you’ll win. Your best love signs are Aquarius and Cancer. Your lucky numbers are: 34, 23, 21, 25 and 10.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). An interesting conversation might lead to a sale. Short-term sacrifices are well worth the trouble. Your love relationship will either become deeper and more satisfying or insanely chaotic. People will respect you for making firm decisions.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). It’s time to adopt a new framework through which to examine money matters. Going out on the town may be tempting, but play it cool for now. If you want incredibly interesting answers, ask incredibly interesting (but simple) questions.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). The lines of communication may be garbed, so double-check a friend’s request before knocking yourself out. Too much emphasis on the distant future will endanger your enjoyment of the present. Start a long-overdue project.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Your entrepreneurial attitude will attract success – go for it. Take a stand against what’s been bothering you, and don’t back down. The best things that could happen to you are the things you least expect to be good for you.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Attend a class or lecture. Those who are in the spotlight can voice your needs. Return favors. A good sale will be enough to put dollars in your pocket down the road. Do things for yourself that you were afraid to do yesterday.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Opposites attract. You’re super sexy, so be careful whose heart you steal. Being adored by the wrong person could be more trouble than it’s worth. If you can’t do a job, pass it on to a friend who doesn’t work with you. Network tonight.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Outwit your competitors by planning everything out carefully. Someone who envies your accomplishments is still trying to adopt your style. Your living situation may get better if you become proactive. A co-worker will pick up the slack.
ASTROLOGICAL QUESTIONS: "I’m an Aries born on April 17, 1979. I broke up with my boyfriend two-and-a-half years ago. His birthday is June 8, 1979. I was starting to fall out of love with him and was interested in pursuing other goals, guys and jobs. I am trying to get into police work, and some of his smoking habits didn’t really help my decision in staying with him. However, after spending about two years apart, I still love him very much. I don’t have any problem meeting new guys, but when I try to get into a relationship, I stop myself because my heart is with "David." He has a serious girlfriend now, but he says he still loves me. He says his life is fine until he sees me again, and then things get difficult. Do you think he will ever face the fact that he still loves me rather than avoiding the subject? Will we get back together again? I still think of him several times a day and dream of him at night."
Forget him. Concentrate on getting a new job or a promotion. These increased responsibilities will 1) focus your mind on something positive and 2) allow you to maximize a money aspect in your chart that will happen in August. Don’t worry; you haven’t met the love of your life, yet, but you will when these other areas are better attended. Start moving!
