ARIES (March 21-April 19). Giving more of yourself has magical effects on your love life, which spill into all areas of your life. Teach others with the example of your persistence. Allow time for entertainment, especially cultural activities.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You’re capable of more than you realize. Humor puts you back in good graces with a lover. Friends are happy to lend a hand if you need help. For money luck, seek advice from an older Aries.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Be flexible and patient with a loved one who’s facing a difficult choice. Doing business over the phone is excellent. Trust your own abilities more. You belong exactly where you are, at least for now.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Make exceptions to the rules. At work, you can sit back and learn by observing. Tonight, you feel like working harder to earn the attention of someone powerful, but you are equally deserving of respect for your unique talents.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’ll enjoy someone who challenges you. The complexities of being a couple can’t possibly be understood by anyone on the outside – you may as well keep grips to yourself. Love at first sight is a real possibility.
TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (August 30). Your bright ideas really help out those around you this year. Impress your employer this month, and you’ll be taking home more pay next month. Married couples are offered business propositions in December. Colleagues honor you for an achievement in January. Marriage is a blessed new year’s event! Libras and Sagittarians are likely prospects. Your lucky numbers are: 14. 16, 22, 31 and 45.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Hopes run high; you strengthen the morale of those around you. Couples make more money together this weekend than they make love together, but that changes soon. Attend gatherings with one who brings out your best.
LIBRA (Sept.23-Oct.23). Do a reality check periodically, and remember to have fun. Romantic ties to the past make it difficult for a new love to develop smoothly. Plans to expand (especially in the financial realm) help bring communication barriers down.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Fantasies can be real – start saving for that trip to Paris by putting 10 percent of your paycheck in a separate account. Your love live percolates tonight, and you also have the chance to enjoy the benefits of being well liked!
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You’re in tune with the cycles of nature. Make a list of all you have and all you want to accomplish. Results appear immediately. You are more appealing and romantically lucky when you wait for others to make the first move.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Let a loved one’s success be an inspiration to you. Mix and meet tonight. Introductions are awkward at first, but your warmth melts the ice. Don’t wait for the perfect time to extend the olive branch to an estranged friend.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Leave those commitment worries behind, and enjoy easy conversation and light-hearted affection. Living within your means is what’s needed for future financial prosperity. Family influences are strong.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Love ones do whatever it takes to be close to you. Clashing ideas about raising children or spending money need a series look before a relationship can progress. Singles meet someone warm and nurturing.
THE WEEKEND LOVE REPORT: As the sun moves from Leo to Virgo, lovers change their approach. Being low-key seems like the tactic to take – a wink says more than "hello," and a lingering look says much more than a hug. ARIES: What worked in the past won’t this week, so try something new. TAURUS: Traveling brings you face to face with someone fabulous. GEMINI: Flirting around leads to no good. CANCER: Couples get more and more clear about what needs to be different about the relationship. LEO: You can be more intimate and truthful over the phone than in person. VIRGO: Look down the road, and see what’s in store for a loved one who is so much like a younger version of you. Offer guidance. LIBRA: Busy schedules nonetheless allow time for romance if it’s important enough. SCORPIO: Physical attraction is not everything – but is sure feels like it now. SAGITTARIUS: The direct approach is not always the best one. CAPRICORN: You’ll be glad you offered to foot the bill. AQUARIUS: This is a time to love being single and leave it at that. PISCES: Talking over coffee is better than dinner and dancing if you really want to get to know someone.
COUPLE OF THE WEEKEND: Virgo gets a blast of attraction power as the sun moves into this realm, activating Virgo’s natural charm and nurturing abilities. Capricorn notices right away that something is different about the up-and-coming Virgo and will hitch a wagon to Virgo’s star. Don’t be fooled, though. Capricorn will end up leading the way before September is over, and Virgo will be relegated to back-seat driver.
