ARIES (March 21-April 19). There’s a chance to bury the hatchet, so don’t be too proud to take it. More involvement and responsibility for taking care of our physical world leads to big romantic luck. Money tip: buy a trade magazine, and try to learn from it.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Frustration only besets the inflexible, so relax, and don’t keep others from doing the work. Best friends become romantic or business partners by Sunday. You begin to get the dynamics between relatives and co-workers.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Travel is idyllic; if you do go, be patient and flexible under unpredictable conditions. An unorthodox approach leads to a financial bonus. Sometimes, you must risk security to gain it. Bravery wins points with a new love interest.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Your childlike spirit of curiosity comes out to play, endearing you to friends and family. But by evening, you get the cranky part, too. Try and figure out what it is that bothers you so much, and find a way to build up immunity to it.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Courage in overdrive is the theme. If it isn’t a challenge, you won’t want to pursue it. Danger is appealing – don’t be foolish drawn into adventurous but risky situations. You don’t have to play it safe; just play it smart.
TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (March 30). Honors are bestowed upon you this ear because of your deep commitment to your own vision. You inspire plenty of others to help get your project off the ground. Couples reach a deeper level of understanding in the next seven weeks. For singles, a formal rival becomes a romantic contender in April. Lucky love matches are Leo and Pisces. Your lucky numbers are: 4, 35, 29, 5 and 26.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You know that truth is stranger tan fiction, but less imaginative people might think you’re making up a story as you go along. Have fun playing with people’s perceptions, doing what they don’t expect of you.
LIBRA (Sept.23-Oct.23). Friends influence your style by introducing you to what’s hip and novel. Hide the sugary foods – you need energy to last through the evening because family demands full attention tonight. A new person brings out your feisty nature.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You feel driven to pr on your affection! It’s the idiosyncrasies that snag your heart. A break from the pressure is what everyone needs this evening. Be playful! Love with a Virgo is favored.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Express yourself, and lay what’s important on the line. To capture the attention of what wonderful someone, take your turn when the spotlight comes your way. It’s a lucky day to do it yourself.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Money and how to handle it are the theme. Your level of personal responsibility is the real issue. Don’t blame yourself for financial problems. Instead, get educated. Popularity in your circle of friends reaches a new peak.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Priorities must shift again in order for you to be comfortable. What others think is most important may not be for you. Temporary pleasure is postponed for future success – the mark of true maturity.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Your way is cleared for action; get a lot done. Organization pays when you find lost papers. Being available for the unexpected gets you a lucrative opportunity. Use your best manners with family or in-laws.
FORECAST FOR THE WEEK AHEAD: The moon cycle takes us through a winter and sprig in the course of a few days in the sense that emotional cooling off will kill the weaknesses in a relationship and clear the ground for something new to blossom after the thaw. That thaw comes in the form of the new moon in Aries, which will rule over April Fools’ Day with a little too much enthusiasm. Aries new moon energy is like an impetuous, impulsive, impossible-to-please child who wants it fast, cheap and perfect. Unfortunately, only one or two of those adjectives might be in the realm of possibility at any given time this week, except maybe after Thursday. Jupiter, in all his jolly abundance, takes a moment to pause from the revelry and consider what might still be missing. Use all your senses to gather information about your life, the world and the state of your heart. Valuable information is just hanging in the air, waiting to be discovered by those who know how to tune in. Sensory exploration will be even more pleasurable as the moon and Mercury move into Taurus, but don’t be bamboozled into thinking that the more you pay for things, the better they will be.
CELEBRITY PROFILES: Elton John could forge a new contract with an eyeglass company that gives him more creative leeway in the products he’ll represent through them. Aries folks have a liberal fashion sense, drawn in by anything that seems outrageous and new – their fearlessness in this regard attracts criticism from the conservative element, but Aries gets the last laugh when these folks become imitators.
