October 30, 2001

You will get a chance to let it all out tomorrow, so if life gets a bit irritating, try to take it in stride. Inconsiderate folks may repeatedly say the wrong thing, nothing you want to buy is in your price range, and work keeps piling up. Nonetheless, don’t give in to pressure. Rewards for your patience will come during the full moon, which is just around the corner.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Important people will wait for you to bless their parties with your presence, so accept invitations. If someone shows up uninvited to your party, think twice before sending them away. A new idea maybe a moneymaker or money saver.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Take a deep breath, and be prepared to give good answers when your work is reviewed. Even if your formal interview won’t be held today, your boss may already be making decisions about your future. Relax over dinner tonight.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You may be late, or some tasks may take longer to complete than you expected, but keep to your agenda as best you can. Familiar faces will highlight your afternoon; you get a lot of attention! Forget about your troubles tonight.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Stick to the home fires where there’s a lot to be done. If you’re planning to be the host of a soiree, expect to laugh your way though a mishap or two, which should only add to the fun. No one will arrive on time, so relax and slow down.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). True love will strike without warning. You’ll get a chance to grow closer to someone older, who may have been a little aloof until now. Be sure of your confidence before giving advice to a friend. Practice being nonjudgmental.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (October 30). A familiar dream will become reality in November, when you finally reach your goal. Use your newfound wealth to ensure the comfort of a loved one or change the world. Brainstorming sessions will pay off in March. A spring romance will be delightful. Your new partner will most likely be a Leo or Virgo. Couples will hear wedding bells in June. Your lucky numbers are: 6, 11, 4, 10 and 2.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). It may not be your idea of a good time, but it’s important to be the mediator for contentious factions at home or at work. You have an eye for fairness, so exercise creative thinking and design a compromise. You’ll be the start this evening!

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Do everything you promised yourself and others. Keeping your word is crucial to gaining respect from others. An imaginative friend will inspire you to aim for higher goals. Eat a delicious meals this evening – treat yourself right.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Complete your errands early so that you may settle down to a good book this afternoon. Whatever the outcome of a family argument may be, your input will influence others greatly. Your mind for business is sharp.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Money will be your focus in the morning. A Cancer associate will help you understand your competition. Change gears and catch up with correspondence in the afternoon. Partners will do public relations work for you tonight.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). An exciting trend of social fun will continue into the evening. Your leadership talent will emerge, and you’ll inspire the team and bring out the best in themselves. Gain an excellent reputation by doing some volunteer work.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Stash groceries away, bake a cake, garden and nest, if allowed to stay home. If you end up working, you’ll be all about the business, dispatching responsibilities efficiently. Set creative goals for yourself – they will help you succeed.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Take a special someone someplace new. Explore a new computer program, buy a book or visit the local library. Physical fitness will be your main interest this afternoon. Surprises regarding home and family are featured tonight.

ASTROLOGICAL QUESTIONS: "I’m a buyer for a major department store. I worked very hard to get to my current position, but lately, I find that I’m not motivated like I’d like to be. I’m easily distracted and don’t feel as committed as I once was. My birthday is Oct. 20, 1967. Do you have any advice for me? I need some of your guidance."

Libras of all ages must recognize that when they are working creatively, all the rules must be thrown aside. First, Libras will work in spurts of activity and then slack off. What your may call drifting could just be your way of dealing with these cycles. Libras in retail or media will succeed splendidly this year. A boss who did not appreciate you will be replaced with someone who’ll recognize your potential. This will begin an energized cycle for you when you cannot only prove yourself to higher-ups, but discover a new area of specialty or talent your possess, giving you a more specific target for your time at this position. You’ll also meet a new love potential who just happens to posses the same interests as you.

CELEBRITY PROFILES: David Schwimmer could become a writer this year, but the world is not likely to see the fruits of his efforts for several years. This is a time when Scorpios, who were born in 1966 and are already an extremely private breed, are keeping their interests a secret. Schwimmer and fellow Scorpios like him will show the world what they’ve been hiding at a much later date in one spectacular and impressive display.
