Mercury and Uranus are in opposition. Don’t be afraid of a little harmless tension. Partners who don’t always agree can still achieve wonderful accomplishments together. The afternoon sun and Mars form an aspect to help you and friends form closer bonds. You could possibly make an auspicious deal at the end of a heated negotiation.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Zany antics attract intriguing new friends. Tell the truth, and you’ll win coveted invitations. Your intuition is hot tonight, but tomorrow, you’ll be blinded by love. Steer clear of people who are jealous of your assets. Value your physical health.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Work circles are competitive and highly charged with ambitious energy. Skip shopping; there’s nothing you need, and inflated prices are everywhere. Focus on home projects and hosting parties. Libra partners are best.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Memories of a passionate past relationship resurface if you’re open to it. If not, don’t even give it a thought today. Complete tasks others shirk. If you support partners now, your own personal and financial gains will come later.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Romance is sensual and full of fun. It may even hold a prank or two. Tonight’s dream will inspire you to enroll into classes that are uncharacteristic of your interests over the weekend. Your social reputation is enhanced by your unpredictability.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). The night can’t be planned – you’re too whimsical for preconceived structures now. Give in to chaos and win! Find bargains for your home tomorrow, and let creative imagination carry you. Another Leo is your best creative partner.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (September 28). It’s a year when your goals are loftier than ever, but you can reach them! Don’t hesitate to do the right thing this month to start the good fortune rolling. Cut unhealthy ties in October. By pursuing your interests, you’ll receive career advantages in November you make the most money doing what you love. Your best signs for passion are Aries and Libra. Your lucky numbers are: 8, 16, 21, 7 and 24.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). A short-lived romantic relationship leads to new horizons. Making too many changes in the way you operate with family members could undermine hard work. Be consistent, and do exactly what you said you would do.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Wish on a star! Your dreams get consideration from those with the power to fulfill them. Those who show gratitude for what they have (however much or little it may be) get more. Mysterious Scorpio singles are featured this evening.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Face the emotions that seemed too overwhelming in the past. Motivation returns this afternoon. Personal affairs flourish with just a bit more attention and enthusiasm. Being vulnerable is attractive. Just be careful not to be naive.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You’ll make money through various talents. A secret crush comes to the fore – but the idea of just being friends is far more appealing than usual. This evening, you gain popularity by letting others win, so concede a point.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You make progress this morning, and emotional barriers come tumbling down by this afternoon. Money is easy to collect. Long-awaited checks, contracts and letters finally arrive. You’ll meet very interesting people tonight.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Give work your best shot, and don’t worry about it. You have a sudden urge to break the routine tonight, and you’ll go on an adventurous date. Let others have center stage, because you are loved, no matter what you do or say.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Making long-distance transactions is risky, so set up a meeting place instead. You’re the one to make a different in the life of an unfortunate individual. Teens may share their dreams and fears with parents if the time is right.

WEEKEND LOVE FORECAST: The Taurus moon encourages a laid-back weekend. Though the fun we experience seems low-key, it may also be quite expensive, as Taurus loves luxuries. Aries: Get your beauty sleep. You’re pleasure to be around. If not, a crabby attitude makes it a good time to avoid social outings all together. Taurus: Your hunch is correct. Be tenderhearted with those who desire you, even if you decide not to reciprocate the same feelings. Be gentle! Gemini: You have a blast, as usual, but be sure to slow down enough on Sunday to tell dear ones how much they mean to you. Cancer: A solid commitment is not too much to ask for. Leo: Though you exchange phone numbers with many love potentials, the weekend still leaves you longing for lovin’. Virgo: Inspire yourself to feel romantic by hanging out with a Scorpio. Libra: Talent is what turns you on. You’ll meet sexy singles at a dance or live music club. Scorpio: If you admit you were wrong, you’ll get another chance. Sagittarius: Sentimental moves win hearts. Capricorn: Pessimism hurts a healthy romance, so think positively. Aquarius: A dynamite conversation on Saturday starts the ball rolling in romance. Pisces: You’ll feel confident as ever, but take it slow anyhow. You don’t want to rush into anything now.

COUPLE OF THE WEEKEND: Taurus gets a special dose of star power with the emotional moon sparking charisma in the sign of the bull. Gemini is a sexy match this weekend for Taurus, and the early stages of this romance may bring a particularly heady sort of infatuation for both of these signs. But the setting-down stage is a test. Gemini needs constant action and is addicted to flirting, and Taurus often quietly drops back to watch the action and take notes, calculating how serious Gemini could possibly be about love.
