ARIES (March 21-April 19). If you’re still not getting what you want, try changing your appearance – how revitalizing! Avoid stringing a love interest along; you’ll have to make a choice. A child benefit from more structure.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Overbearing people will try to run you – trust your inner self before any so-called leaders. An unpredictable friend hits you up for a loan. A blind date surpasses your wildest expectations, especially if it’s someone older than you.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Write down random thoughts and ideas without judging them. Hours spent daydreaming are as important as working hours. Contacts you make in the afternoon further business ideas. Sketch out ideas for redoing your office or home.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Concentration on personal growth makes you magnetic to new people. You are more attracted to a character type than you are to a body type. Friends are jealous of your luck, so disregard their comments.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Improving your immediate environment and building new job skills are top priorities. Opportunities arise through friends and close kin – that is, if they know what you want. Pace yourself tonight. Overdoing drains your energy.
TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (September 12). Your lack of fear brings tremendous luck this year. Branch out. You are wild and irresistible through this month and attract romantic offers. Creative success comes in December from a project you are working on now. Travel in February leads to passion with a Pisces or Gemini. Money worries end in June with a windfall or bonus. Your lucky numbers are: 5, 39, 21, 52 and 8.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Holding on too tight won’t benefit you. Your secret strength is your willingness to walk away at any time with no worries or regrets. When others sense your fearlessness, they don’t want to lose you or the deal.
LIBRA (Sept.23-Oct.23). Money slips through your fingers – be careful not to spend out of a sense of competition. NO need to be judgmental. Instead, come from a true generosity of heart, and you’ll make more friends than you know what to do with.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Try to negotiate more power on the job; others want to help. Friends have friends you don’t know about – ask for introductions. Singles fine out that someone dear is really as wonderful as he or she seems.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You’re really on a roll in terms of career success; let past accomplishments go to your head! Giving away the credit and taking the fall are behaviors of the past. Entertaining children this afternoon bonds you.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Impulsive action leads to later disappointment. Fight the current, and be thoughtful and thorough instead. Children act like they don’t need you, but no worries, you are still No. 1. Make up for a mistake tonight.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You are the designer of your life, so assume responsibility. Loved ones are more understanding, but relationship progress is still slow going now. Respond to a friend’s call as soon as possible. People need you.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Show your support of a partner, instead of talking about it. Pay attention to the signs loved ones give you. If all you do is notice the world around you today, you’ll be way ahead. Make sure to enjoy your family.
ASTRO-ENERGY TRANSFORMATION (PART FOUR OF THE FIVE): A transformation of astrological energy can allow you to look at yourself anew and provoke a new look from friends and family members, too. Even those who seem to have it all together can stand an energetic shakeup in their lives. Here are suggestions for each sign: SCORPIO: The way your financial life is set up is not giving you the abundance of research. The next three weeks are an opportunity to transfer balances to a new credit card, open a savings account with a better interest rate or change banks to one with lower fees. These money makeovers infuse you with a feeling of wealth. SAGITTARIUS: You need to se the mountains, the ocean, the stars at night and the landing strip of an airport in a new city. Travel stimulates you, and different environments shake up your self-concept. Star scheduling a trip this week! CAPRICORN: Centering your life around work makes for more problems than you realize. Use the next few weeks to open your world up. This might mean taking your vacation days to do something completely unrelated to your professional self – like nothing at all!
CELEBRITY PROFILES: Late-night newcomer Craig Kilborn has proven that he has the staying power to go for the long haul (many new talk shows don’t make it through one year even!). Virgo is the sign of steady improvement, and you’ll see his ratings (as well as the quality of his show) climb higher the longer Kilborn stays on the air.
