ARIES (March 21-April 19). Your long-range goals and short-term goals are at odds. People in power contact you when they want help. Home quarrels erupt over silly issues. Extravagant friends cost you a great deal of money, not to mention your time.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Emotional approaches work where logic fails. Delays bring your luck. Joint enterprises bring quick profits. Be firm with teens. Schedule meetings and interviews for next week – give yourself time to relax.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Give away the answers if it means building a better team at work. Job security is not a worry. Separate business and pleasure. Overanalysis of a love matter dooms it to failure. Cancel any immediate appointments.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Work on primary goals, and try not to get sidetracked. Adversaries back down. Your business intuition is correct. An overly-generous gift embarrasses a current love. Finances improve when you receive a surprise check.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You are intensely focused on the task at hand, but others have a different path in mind for you. Risk deciding differently than you usually would this morning. Saying "yes" in love, or agreeing to work it out will enrich you.
TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (October 19). Make sure your arms are open because honors are bestowed on you this year. Singles meet new prospects in the next six weeks. In March, break free from a love commitment that isn’t good for the long haul; it’s time to get serious about what you want in a relationship. It’s time to be decisive and firm. Virgo or Aquarius loves are favored. Your lucky numbers are: 50, 6, 7, 28 and 3.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You are learning to place your priorities differently. Deeper relationships happen when you enthusiastically reward affection. Conservative financial moves win you money to spare. Star-crossed lovers come down to earth.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Listening skills are the key to your success in romance. Take nothing for granted. Eclectic tastes are satiated by exotic travel, cultural diversity or educational trips with children. Start planning to satisfy your life’s curiosities.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You meet and surpass a financial goal, bringing you closer to year-end expectations. Don’t wait for a golden opportunity in the way of finance and employment, move on today’s leads and they just might turn out right.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Money will be needed later – don’t be frivolous now! You’ll be successful if you lead mostly through example. You get along famously with Cancer and Leo. Better discipline for just a few hours and could make it happen for you.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Work is overwhelming until you get Taurus involved. Avoid entirely those who take full credit for the ideas of others. Time with impressionable minds pouts you in touch with the youth inside you.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You finally get your due respect from co-workers. Stop treading lightly around an overly-sensitive person. A tough, demanding approach gets the job done. Problems at home require long-term fixes, not stopgap measures.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Cultivate trust and be nurturing – ask inquisitive questions instead of stating blatant orders. You are learning how valuable help can be. If you can’t get team support, work on something else until others come back around.
ASTROLOGICAL QUESTIONS: "A few years ago I didn’t even think that I was the marrying kind. But now, my own mother (who’s been single for 15 years) is getting married before I am. Have I just been childish about the "M" word. Do you think a person born Sept. 20 will propose marriage to me (Dec. 23), and if so, should I marry him?"
I’m guessing from your chart that you are practically married now, and all that’s left are the party and the papers. If you want to get married, you’ll have to remind him how painful it would be to lose you. If I’m correct, and you’ve already moved into this mean’s house (several years ago), you may have to move out temporarily if you want a marriage commitment. Please consider this question: Are you sure you need to make it legal? I’d bet from his chart that he has a few minor financial problems that you’d be sharing once you sign those papers. However, it’s important to note that you have excellent love aspects. Sagittarius and Libra are wonderful partners throughout life.
CELEBRITY PROFILES: Jason Alexander makes an excellent representation of the brilliant partnering skills of Libra natives. Libra is such a supportive player, actors born under this sign shine the brightest when they reflect the light of an equally talented partner. We predict a series for the former George Costanza of "Seinfeld" in the year 2001. However, Alexander’s role of husband and father will continue as the most important one in his life.
