Neptune takes a direct journey, and for the first time in a long time, you may remember what you set out to do in the first place. Reawaken your dormant dreams, and reevaluate the path you’re taking based on where you’ve been and where you want to go. Friends will give you the best clues about yourself. A Libra encourages you to ask for help.

ARIES (March 21-April 19)
. Make strong choices – the buzz boosts your reputation. Tonight, be more cautious about whom you let into your world, especially when it comes to sharing your ideas. Rest and recreation are important this evening.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
. You may be competing with more experienced co-workers, but whether you win or lose, what you learn helps your earning potential. It’s lucky to let your clients see you walk around in style. They’ll admire your beauty.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21)
. Being inventive is great, but do some research, too, or you’ll waste time reinventing the wheel. Build enthusiasm among co-workers, so you won’t have to do everything yourself. You’ll have a dynamite phone conversation this afternoon.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).
Vulnerability is lucky. It’s the perfect day to reveal more of yourself to your romantic partner. Your witty ways will pull in extra support. Tonight, build your vocabulary by listening to teens converse. Manage your time wisely.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)
. Extra charisma is yours – friends vie for your time. You must turn down invitations in a quest for major productivity. Take inventory of personal aims and achievements tonight. Be an understanding mentor to a young child.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (April 24)
. Passion can be applied across the board. It’s clear to see that both work and family possess equal enthusiasm for you, making you a balanced individual. Discover new love potentials through sports and hobbies in July, couples may decide to add a new member to the family in August. Loved ones provide business connections in May. Your lucky numbers are: 5, 32, 24, 11 and 37.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
. Sincere enthusiasm is impressive and can win you a job. You are most productive in the absence of a loved one, and your family members reward you for it. Extra preparation ensures the success of a project.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23)
. Be careful that jealousy or repressed desires don’t cause you to make hasty and foolish decisions. Being moody or pouty is unattractive. You’ll get a chance to further your cause tonight, and you may fall in love in the process.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21)
. It’s one of those days when you are overly concerned with the feelings of others. Be calm and firm when dealing with troubled relationships, especially if it’s a romantic one. For big luck, analyze your expenses and make cutbacks.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
Today calls for making some adjustments and reaffirming your original goals, so don’t take any detours. Your practical and creative solutions will overcome any obstacles! Give back what was once lavished upon you.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
. Stay carefree. Edgy feelings get in the way of work. Bargains and free legal advice are available, so find out the latest information. Helping children do their homework can actually relieve the stress you are feeling.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
. A sense of wonder colors your perspective now. A blooming idea finally becomes a big moneymaker. Consult a Scorpio or Pisces to get the inside track on unusual circumstances. Their wisdom exceeds that of the average person.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)
. Although you are impatient, taking steps in the right order is what speeds things along. Before you launch your new plan, take time to think through all the details, especially if it’s a money-saving strategy.

ASTROLOGICAL QUESTIONS:
"It’s been hard for me to open up to someone in the past, but now I’ve met someone very special. I’m doing my best to trust him and not be ‘closed off.’ Do you think I could live happily ever after with an Aquarius? My birthday is Sept. 16, 1978. I could really let go if I knew we would be together for a long time."

You have Mars in Libra, which means that you find his Aquarian qualities very attractive. You have Jupiter in Leo (opposite Aquarius), so you may learn a great deal from your relationship with an Aquarius. Most of your planetary emphasis is in water – Scorpio and Pisces – and if you are to be romantically happy with an Aquarius, he will have to be one whose individual chart is infused with energies other than the pure air of Aquarius. If not, he will have a very difficult time supplying the kind of "belonging" love that you require on a long-term basis. The real lesson now might be to learn to take things one day at a time and let your love for this man heal the pain from your past. Putting too much expectation on the relationship will stop your chance to truly enjoy what you have together.

CELEBRITY PROFILES:
Lorraine Bracco plays the tough psychologist to Tony Soprano on the hit series "The Sopranos." In real life, her Libran nature would prevent her from having the all-work-no-play lifestyle her television character portrays. A Libra simply doesn’t function well unless several areas of its life are being fulfilled simultaneously, like love, family, domestic environment, fun and adventure – oh, yes, and work! Bracco will interest the media with her fashion choices this year – perhaps a wacky makeover in March!
