ARIES (March 21-April 19). It may feel good to let yourself go anywhere your heart desires, but right now, your heart is leading you into old, familiar and possibly destructive patterns. Awareness is half the battle, and finding your way out is winning the war.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Your mind is going a thousand miles a minute, but nothing else seems to be keeping up. Ease into a more natural pace. The exotic holds appeal. Kids need to giggle, and so do you –make ’em laugh.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Love relationships that are in the air make you feel unsettled and anxious. Look for signals – they’re so subtle, you practically need a microscope to find them. Be a sleuth. Tiny gestures add up to one big truth.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). You use your sparkling energy to light a fire under those around you without overdoing it. Directness and truth are your allies. Cooking it on the extra spending makes others see you as a frugal and mature – not stingy and boring.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Thinking and doing are better than feeling and waiting. Life today is an action film, not a slow-moving drama. Co-workers respond to your decisive way of working by giving you more responsibility. Ultimately, this boosts your profile.
TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (April 21). Rewards are better than anticipated when you stick to the goal. May brings a renewal of energy and funds. Your romantic life flourishes with a few minor changes. June brings fantastic luck for interviews and raids. Children or other kinds of additions to the family happen in October. Sexy Scorpio and adventurous Sagittarius are luck love patterns. Your lucky numbers are: 4, 7, 18, 21 and 32.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You awaken to a new sense of clarity, and you feel ready to share your outlook with others. Even if they may not be as excited about it as you are, it makes you feel good to spread your joy.
LIBRA (Sept.23-Oct.23). Around certain people, it’s harder to be yourself. The day seems to be a series of role-playing opportunities as you appease your boss, significant other, children and parents. Showing the authentic you won’t hurt anything.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Focus on your surroundings and the lovely people that fill your life. You find that there are many more things to deal with around you. By tonight, you’ll be able to spread your wings and talk to anyone about anything.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Your responsibility in any adult relationship should be only 50 percent, so why does it feel like you’ve got 100 percent of the burden and not enough of the fun stuff? Don’t make all the decisions for friends and loved ones.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Muster up the courage to chat with interesting characters who cross your path. Only keep alive the conversations that you feel you’re getting something out of. Tonight, someone gives you the key to their heart.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). A series of coincidences is featured. You play matchmaker to an odd couple – opposites who have common ground that could be the springboard for a remarkable relationship. Connecting people can help change the world!
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). The "present you" and the "future you" need to have a little talk about where your life is going. The day-to-day stuff has to change for the big picture to follow suit. Start small: A new haircut or different reading material.
ASTROLOGICAL QUESTIONS: "I hope you can enlighten me about what is going on in my life. Every time it seems that things can’t possibly get any worse, they do. My love life has hit rock bottom. A Virgo (born August 1953) who I thought was a perfect match just left me for someone else. I can’t find a job, and my self-confidence is at an all-time low. Is there a way out of this? My birthday is April 2, 1956."
Your feelings are true for many right now,, as heavy alignments encourage us to examine our souls for our real purpose. This can have an immobilizing effect and is especially difficult for forward-thinking Aries. Your energy makes you want to look for opportunities for growth, but everything is falling away around you. When you, Aries, and your Virgo were together, your vastly different natures may have seemed to complement each other, but with time, the differences were too much to surmount. You would be better suited to a Leo. The movement of luminaries into Aries on the summer solstice (June 21) will give you a fiery rebirth and the energy to seek out new prospects.
CELEBRITY PROFILES: Hank Azaria is a down-to-earth Taurus who still has the Bull’s classic love of luxury. This proclivity will show up in the way of a stand-out car Azaria will purchase, perhaps by auction, beating other celebrity clients out of the bidding (Jay Leno, watch out!). Such hobbies bring a big self-esteem boost to Taurus guys now, and because of the terrific lift, seemingly non-related career issues fall into place.
