ARIES (March 21-April 19). A competitor’s tactics fail. Your self-confident move lands the client or contract you’ve had your heart set on. Evening plans are changed, but take it in stride. Take time out to do something totally silly and fun with a new love.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Watching how things work is the fastest way to overcome the obstacle between you and the goal. Don’t try to deceive one you love – the price will be more than you want to pay.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). The vibes are good for being inventive; allow yourself to daydream. A perplexing issue is resolved. There is terrific luck in twos and surprise fringe benefits in love. Let yourself relax and enjoy a night of soothing rest tonight.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Roam widely, and make new friends. It’s not how much you spend but how much you read that gives you head-turning style. Keep current – enjoy learning about what’s hip. The pursuit of romance is your main focus tonight.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). There could be important decisions for you to make in the morning – or papers to sign. Take credit for your own gains, even when others make you feel like it’s not OK to shine. Aquarius and Cancer friends are lucky.
TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (December 14). Motivation is not a problem. You know what you want and are on fire with ambition. Public speaking and conflict resolution are two areas in which you’ll shine. Short trips in February lead to new love for singles, who must work into a new social circle by the beginning of 2003 to see dreams realized. Best signs for passion are Aquarius and Pisces. Your lucky numbers are: 5, 22, 15, 33 and 7.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You can build on former successes through new business contacts. This is a good day for agreements and purchases. Following the right teacher makes a big difference in your performance. Unknown forces are still operating.
LIBRA (Sept.23-Oct.23). Your instincts are right on. Talent and timing are equally important to your success today. Allow no one to order you around. A friend deserves a chance to apologize. Remind people of promises they haven’t kept.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Recreation and a change of pace are the order of the day. Social contacts improve business knowledge, so get out and meet new people. Reconnecting with loved ones tonight will lighten your emotional load.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Be kind to family members, and they will be the source of sterling opportunities for you. Love is not something to search for now. Sit back and wait. Your patience brings you a loyal love. Aquarius and Leo are favored.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Stop waiting to be rescued – you can get out of a financial jam on your own. Love gains momentum when you are choosier about how you spend your time. Friendship with a Leo continues to grow.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Try to avoid anyone who slows you down – stick to your schedule, and you will complete a great deal of work. The public will love your confident and courageous personality on the town tonight.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Being honest doesn’t mean you should say everything that pops into your mind. If you think something is standing in your way, it may just be your vantage point. Try raising yourself and looking at the larger picture.
RUSH TO CHECK OFF LAST YEAR’S RESOLUTIONS (PARAT FIVE OF FIVE): Have you taken care of all those resolutions you made at the beginning of this year? In just a couple of weeks, we’ll be making new resolutions as we stare down the barrel of the new year. There’s no need to feel regretful about your 2002 resolutions. Here’s an astrological prescription for motivating yourself to accomplish your goals in the next month or let them go. AQUARIUS: You’ve actually achieved much of what you set out to do this year, but you’ve hardly rewarded yourself for any of it. If you don’t reward yourself, you won’t stay motivated. Rewards don’t have to be expensive, but they do have to be specific and all for you – like taking time to read a fabulous book or getting a massage. PISCES: By nurturing relationships, you’re also ensuring that when the time comes, you’ll have help getting where you need to go. It’s OK to stray from your plan in order to give a little. The charitable urge continues to be strong through December. You’ll go into the new year knowing that you gave all you could and your karma is clean – which is even better than your original resolution.
CELEBRITY PROFILES: Rock-and-roll bad boy Keith Richards is a fine example of the compelling nature of Sagittarius. His fearless attitude makes one believe he’s been everywhere and done everything there is to do. Such is the legacy of Sagittarius, to be a "Rolling Stone" that just keeps taking in what life has to offer. Richards could purchase an island residence this year but then grow quickly tired of it and sell the real estate.
