The moon in Gemini gets the party started now. Finding people who know things about the places you’d like to go or the people you’d like to meet will be easy and exciting. The more you learn, the better you feel about your ability to learn more. Socializing can be done absolutely anywhere, so don’t wait for an official gathering!

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Today, whatever you schedule comes off better than you’d planned. Enjoy people who are friendly and freewheeling. Groups stimulate your imagination. The more creative you are, the more it seems you cannot fail.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Big luck involves a small change. Keep enforcing new attitudes and behaviors to create permanent healthy habits. A Sagittarius and a Libra find you irresistible. Tonight, talk out your differences, and even agree to disagree.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Your nose is firmly held to grindstone, even if it’s your day off. Breakthroughs are subtle but powerful. Tonight, you are vulnerable to attracting the wrong kind of person and should be careful what you reveal about yourself.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). You can get much done on your own. It’s important to go with your instinct rather than spend too much time analyzing. Your free moments are precious. Tonight, you are a performer who needs an audience.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’ll find yourself in a position to live up to a compliment. Practice makes perfect. Gossip entertains if you listen for a short time and spoils if you listen longer. You are lucky in games this afternoon. Spend leisure time with friends.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (September 20). Celebrate the distance you’ve come _ it’s good luck for the journey ahead. Financial success comes through the arts, counseling or the sale of real estate during October. Career responsibilities abound through January and set the groundwork for a major move upward. Love affairs rocket in the coming months with a Taurus or Libra. Your lucky numbers are: 40, 8, 29, 10 and 36.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). The person you’re dating appears cool but is falling in love with you. Involvement in a charity gives you a greater sense of purpose and perspective. It’s time to get that new business off the ground, at least in a part-time way.

LIBRA (Sept.23-Oct.23). Stand and be counted if you want to make a difference. Postponing difficult assignments only makes them worse. Use your witty appeal to land yourself a better job or attract a challenging romance.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Getting enough rest and fun is only a small part of feeling good. What about love, adventure and challenge! There is so much to learn. Falling into the same patterns day in and day out stunts growth. Shake it up!

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Follow all leads, especially romantic ones. Singles who respond to the urge to jump into love will not be sorry, no matter how absurd the scene may look now. A little decadence is good for your soul.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Your personal charisma rates at the top of the chart today. Make sure to use it. The same thing that drives you mad is what attracted you to a lover in the first place. Ask yourself what you get out of a frustrating situation.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). It’s easy to get confused about what to do next. A mate has needs and would appreciate more support. All your giving will be returned in kind. Family members may argue with one another, but you should stay out of it.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Work toward a meeting of the minds instead of trying to convince someone you’re right – which by the way, you are. Trips to the ocean or the lake revive your energy. Encourage a child to study; you can make the difference.

THE WEEKEND LOVE REPORT: Social hookups are many this weekend with the moon cruising through intelligent, witty, fun loving Gemini. Many overlook relationships that don’t obviously benefit them, so avoid just seeing the surface when meeting new people. ARIES: Stop looking, and just be available. TAURUS: No one has more fun than you this weekend. GEMINI: It’s easy to hurt someone’s feelings and hard to repair the damage. CANCER: If you can feel terrific around someone who used to intimidate you, you’ve won. LEO: Activities with younger people are the ticket to newfound joy for living. VIRGO: You’re in your element and can’t do anything wrong as far as a lover is concerned. LIBRA: Prospects get better as the weekend progresses, so keep the faith. SCORPIO: A tenderhearted stranger is your next big love. SAGITTARIUS: You’ll change your mind a few times, but that’s your right. CAPRICORN: Look past the shoes, the car and the clothes, and you’ll find someone really worth spending time with. AQUARIUS: A devilish smile gets you to do what you never would do otherwise. PISCES: You’ve got to do what’s right for you, no matter what the children or your parents think.

COUPLE OF THE WEEKEND: It’s a sexy time for Gemini and Virgo. With the sun in one sign and the moon in the other, these two have a tingling feeling when they hook up. It takes few words (but a lot of smiles and banter), and they’re on their way to a sweet, romance-filled relationship. Virgo may never trust Gemini all the way but will be enough in love to suspect disbelief.
