ARIES (March 21-April 19). New thoughts make a new you. Reward children for good behavior. Those in a legal battle will now consider settling out of court. If your honey has different objectives for your relationship, discuss it tonight to avoid a mess.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Keep finding better ways to express yourself – one could bring in money today. Abandon romantic caution, and you will finally connect dynamically with that new interest. Get on the bandwagon tonight.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Remain patient with relationships (especially work-related ones) that are not going as anticipated. Don’t assign powers to people that they do not possess. If you’re realistic, you won’t be disappointed. Tonight, follow your heart.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Every move you make matters, so be methodical, and keep the bottom line in mind. Tonight, take compliments gracefully, and accept gifts and favors readily. Love is not calculating, so you shouldn’t be, either.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Second-rate relationships won’t even tempt you – you’re ready for the real thing. Leo or Sagittarius loves bring out the best in you. Be observant in the presence of major players.
TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (September 21). Change is incredibly lucky this year. Go shopping, change your hair, or simply adopt a new mind-set this month. November is the month of promotion, but it could happen in January. Your best months for adventurous love are January and March. Weddings take place in August or September. Your luckiest love signs are Cancer and Pisces. Your lucky numbers are: 8, 20, 34, 9 and 23.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Events unexpectedly turn your way; a chance that you have longed for is now yours. A new romance takes off at top speed. Some of you work late, but you’re in good company. Spontaneous parties or meetings are very productive.
LIBRA (Sept.23-Oct.23). Restlessness should be channeled into something positive. Don’t make relationship decisions based on inconclusive evidence – tackle problems when you know exactly what they are.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Your dramatic flair could win a heart. Children and family are the focus when you make improvements this afternoon. Family harmony brings good fortune to virtually every other area of your life. Singles find love with a sexy Leo.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Your ability to tell the difference between sincerity and a false smile protects you from those who would take advantage. The extra effort you give to making a good first impression will be more than worth it.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Finish whatever’s been procrastinated at home, and fulfill social promises cheerfully. An indirect approach works best in correcting children. Be an example for them to follow.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Be sure of your ground before criticizing, or be prepared to apologize if you make an error in judgment. You may feel alone in a crowd. Forgive the sweetie who did you wrong. P.S. What you want is affordable.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Your creativity is a source of great pride, so do not allow work to be appraised by those not on your wavelength now. Children crave attention from you and want to please, too. You are best to handle logistical challenges.
FORECAST FOR THE WEEK AHEAD: Your main focus might be splintered into several directions as the details of life come into full view. Virgo is picky, to say the least, and with planetary influences filtered through her well-honed eye, almost nothing in life is up to the standard of perfection we’d like. There’s beauty in this, though, as people will be using the energy to get their health in order, to establish new personal routines, and to get organized with money and time. Mars and Jupiter oppose one another at the top of the week, and the tension creates a few extremes. Those who get infatuated with someone have it bad. The money scene is feast or famine. When you’re mad, you’re really mad. The problem that seems most dire is just a momentary snag – you get the drift. Try to stay balanced by taking frequent walks this week, especially out in nature. On the 10th, the moon is full in Pisces, and there will be beautiful psychic vibes available to everyone who cares to understand his or her situation on a deeper level. This can be a romantic time, too. The weekend brings an opportunity to cement a soulful connection.
CELEBRITY PROFILES: Beautiful Michelle Williams has Virgo’s hard-driving energy to thank for much of her incredible success. She never stops practicing, as Virgo enjoys the process of getting better. She’s got five important Virgo influences in her chart, and financially, she could make a very wise investment this month. Virgo women are smart to put their money in land, especially land they can develop in some way this year.
