February 25, (Wednesday)

The stars align to focus on life’s more luxurious side – what you’ve got and what you’re missing. You’re probably thinking big about what you’ll be able to do, but that’s just the kind of thinking that will lead you to do more than is practically possible.

ARIES (March 21-April 19).
Your place is a hub of activity, though you didn’t plan it this way. It’s like everyone thinks you can help their situation, and maybe you can, but there’s just not time to be there for everyone at once. You’ll have to practice saying "no."

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
The end of a drama is featured at work. Now that this situation is resolved, everyone can get busy and make some real progress. Phone calls are returned quickly, so call everyone on your list. Old-fashioned advice still holds true.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
The fun part of a project is the beginning, but you’re in the long stretch of middle, and perhaps the wind has gone out of your sails. If you’ve got the money, hiring someone to help you will get some new energy going.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).
Your good taste is reflected not only in how you live, what you do with your time and what you purchase, but it’s reflected in your relationships, too. New people are impressed when they meet your kindhearted friends.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22).
Get out of negative patterns by forcing yourself into new challenging situations. You work best in a fast-paced atmosphere. The boss really likes you – ask for more responsibility. Partnerships renew your trust in mankind.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (February 25).
You make me feel special, which is turn gives you security. Inner confidence attracts better pay next month – money continues to flow in if you keep impressing your clients or boss. Capricorn and Aquarius are sweet at first, but passions run deep, so prepare for an eventful ride! This summer, a wealthy acquaintance supports your venture. Your lucky numbers are: 7, 13, 26, 45 and 10.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
Remind others of obligations they may conveniently forget. And while you’re at it, there’s something you’ve forgotten about, too! What’s left undone will nag at your conscience, so you may as well buckle down and finish.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).
For incredible luck, call or write to those with whom you share artistic goals or deep ties. Putting yourself in the minds and hearts of those you love brings opportunity that could not have happened otherwise.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).
You may have an amazing capacity for kindness but don’t often use it on yourself. Be your own best friend. A loved one may be acting in an irrational way. It’s just a phase, nothing permanent.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
Liberal attitudes prevail on the job, and you can gather supporters for ideas off the beaten path. If you don’t have any wild ideas, you need to do a brainstorming session by yourself and get the juices flowing again.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
Sum up what you’ve learned in the last few weeks. Why take the long road just because it’s the way things have always been done? Your financial standing improves when you think of new ways to organize your money.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
When you say "yes" to more projects, more gets done. Your friendliness makes people want to bend the rules to help you. Changes in wardrobe renew your energy. Don’t assume you know everything about a loved one.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
People around you are confused, but don’t let them cloud your vision. Your sharp deductive reasoning could have save the day. Regarding the family feud, listen to both sides of the story, and stall your decision until next week.

ASTROLOGICAL QUESTIONS:
"My sign is Sagittarius, and I’m in love with a Virgo. We have been together off and on for 10 years now, and we’ve had our share of ups and downs. The last ‘down,’ I left him two times due to the fact that he didn’t have a job. Then, he met a Gemini and started treating her the way I should have been treated. I decided that I wanted him back. He told me I had guarantee that I wouldn’t leave him if things got down. Now, he’s bouncing between us both, and I don’t know what to do. I know she’s not good for him, and she doesn’t love him like I could. Is he more compatible with the Gemini or with me?"

Virgo needs stability. You, Sagittarius, need excitement. Gemini needs things to be interesting, which they are, now that he’s bouncing between the two of you. So in a strange way, everyone is getting what he needs or she needs out of this triangle except your poor Virgo guy. Have mercy. Let him go. There’s someone else out there for you. You’re likely to fall head over heels at the end of May for this new person.

CELEBRITY PROFILES:
Kelsey Grammer will be re-discovering himself this year after playing the same character for decades. It will be difficult for him to find a country to travel to where no one has heard of Dr. Frasier Crane, but he’ll manage to do so and will experience an awakening of sorts. Pisces folks require lots of downtime between projects and must spiritually rejuvenate before it’s possible to move on.
