Calling all geniuses! Today’s new-moon solar eclipse in Aquarius heralds a new era of innovation and progress, especially in areas related to technology. It also begins the first of an 18-month series of eclipses for Aquarians. Right now, your quirky ingenuity and unique vision are needed by your human tribe, so get your geek flag out and let it fly.
ARIES (March 21-April 19). You are still attached to a special person, but your attachment has shifted. There is greater freedom in this new relationship, and you feel you can just be yourself.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). A past prophesy is coming true. This is a good time to realize that you’re in a co-creation with destiny, controlling these seemingly lucky happenings that bring your desire to hand.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Loved ones check up on you. Try not to mistake their questions and comments for criticism. In their nosey, overbearing way, they are attempting to love you.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). You are susceptible to picking up other people’s emotions. Life improves immensely when you know and enforce personal boundaries. Get involved in planning his weekend – there are romantic perks for you.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Causing excitement is like a hobby to you now. Get into a stale, boring situation, and stir things up. You’ll be entertained by the strange responses you get. But the best part is, you cause meaningful change.
TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Feb 20). You make it happen this year, showing initiative instead of waiting for someone to bestow money and position to you. A career stride is a direct result of extra work. Next month brings acclaim in a small level that can be parlayed into fame if that’s what you wish. Relationships get tight in September. Gemini and Scorpio adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 11, 14, 29, 20 and 18.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Just because you accept someone doesn’t mean you’re going to become like him or her. Your sophistication of thought lets an array of people color your day. It’s liberating to know that you do not have to judge a soul.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You’ll be making returns of one kind or another. Whether it’s merchandise to a store or trading one belief for another, you’ll come out on the winning side of the exchange.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). If your feelings are not reciprocated, take heart. Love is never lost. It will always return to you from somewhere – maybe not from the direction you’d like it to come, it will return to you from somewhere.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You’re fun to be around. Loved ones want to be involved in more of your life’s activities than you thought would interest them. You may enjoy the company for a while, but you need your alone time too.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Your colleagues may claim that you’re being difficult. Agree with them. You’re not afraid to speak up when things aren’t to your liking, and that’s one of the reasons they love you so.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You’re being asked to conform, an indication that you should go the other way entirely. Spend some time writing, praying or meditating toward the aim of figuring out your own unique point of view.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Community concerns wind up being your concerns sooner of later, and you have an opportunity to get involved now. Taking on more responsibility brings big luck.
ASTROLOGICAL QUESTIONS: “Despite harboring a secret desire to become an author, what career path is right for me? This question has been haunting me for years, and I need to get some sleep! My birthday is June 12, 1971.”
Gemini, I get the feeling you’re talking to yourself, and your self is talking to yet another self. Indeed, you have so many dialogues running that it’s hard to know which one to listen to – who is in charge here, anyhow? With Mercury, Venus and the sun in Gemini, there’s much to talk and think about, so the challenge is actually doing anything at all – unless you count thinking as a physical activity. You have the usual Gemini restlessness, yet when you focus and settle your mind on something that fascinates you, your mind becomes as pristinely clear as a mountain lake. You could either use your strengths – a curious mind, the gift for gab and an aesthetic for self-expression – to a teaching/learning environment or the information technology field, or use these same traits in the communication arts – by, say, writing a mystery/suspense novel during those sleepless nights. A good obsession should kick start your book. You talent for word craft is obvious. And now your secret is out.
