ARIES (March 21-April 19). Setting higher goals lifts your spirits as well as your production. Getting your body and mind connected seems like it should be automatic, but there are times, like now, when you fall out of sync. Manual work will be rewarding.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Following the same routine at work every day won’t get you enough attention to be considered for a bonus or promotion. It’s time to shake things up. Outrageous energy helps both your earning and your love life.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Relationships are redefined. This proves you are in something that is actually growing. Insist on quality time with loved ones. People test you, but you won’t bend under pressure. People you barely know extend invitations.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Love rocks your world. Get to work in spite of flirty feelings, or later, you’ll be too far behind. You’ve got artistic flair, and you’ll want to do it your own way tonight. Try not to step on any toes in the process!
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You don’t have to fall into the trap of feeling enslaved by your lifestyle. There is freedom in responsibility – something you didn’t realize when you took the job. Sunny people in your corner include Sagittarius and Libra.
TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (May 24). Is it luck or courage that makes danger disappear? Both, but mostly, you realize that the monster in your life is no more than a mouse. You’re the life of the party in June. No wonder you’ve got so many dates. By August, many of you have decided whom to marry. Couples go on a romantic getaway. Pisces and Aquarius love is true. Your lucky numbers are: 7, 39, 19, 3 and 25.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). There is some resistance to getting a job done. However, things improve quickly after everyone has sufficiently tested the boundaries. Reduce your expenses – an important strategic move toward success.
LIBRA (Sept.23-Oct.23). Consider a new course of study to expand and update skills. Added income allows you to consider choices you didn’t have before. Tonight, lead the way with big laughs – some people need to loosen up!
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You’ll be bravely forming new attachments; everyone needs to love and be loved. A mentor has great help to offer, but it comes with frank criticism. Don’t let it shake your confidence. It’s only one person’s opinion.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Accolades from colleagues will be much appreciated; you deserve it! The consequences of a past action catch up with you tonight. This can be either positive or negative – it depends on what you did!
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You’ll be busy earning some style points. Gathering influences from different countries and/or street culture can be an adventure in and of itself. A meaningful connection with a Pisces could lead to marriage.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). The best thing you can do for your finances is mend relationships and nourish friendships. When your personal life is in order, you won’t be spending to impress anyone or because you feel guilty.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). It feels like you and a loved one are pulling on either side of a wishbone. Change your approach. There’s got to be a way to turn your current dilemma into a win/win opportunity. Intellectual pursuits bring singles together.
ASTROLOGICAL QUESTIONS: "I was born March 4, 1947. I have worked very hard earning my bachelor’s degree, even though I have two kids and have gone through a messy divorce. For the second time since 1999, I have found out my office is closing. I have refinanced the house and will be living on a very limited income. Is there any light at the end of the tunnel? My life has been good because of my faith in God, but I need a break. I don’t know if I’ll be able to get another job with unemployment so high. Help!"
Don’t panic, Pisces! Your intuition is especially keen in times of stress like this. You prize security and would love to do the same job forever and ever, but you’ll grow as a person and have much more to give your children and the world when you rise to the challenge and flow with change. This layoff could be the best thing that ever happened to you! Get some in-depth career counseling immediately! Don’t take this on alone. One possibility I see is you setting up a home office and working on an independent-contractor basis. You’ll have to double your rate and spend money on advertising, but it’s worth it.
CELEBRITY PROFILES: Bianca Jagger is an extraordinary humanitarian. Her high-profile status would have made it easy for her to kiss and tell about her marriage to rocker Mick Jagger. Instead, she has chosen to use her notoriety to speak out against the war in Iraq and for human-rights causes. Leave it to a Taurus to have so much devotion to her life’s work. Once Taurus folks find their bliss, they stick with it their whole lives.
