ARIES (March 21-April 19). There’s no sense waiting for a partner to help you participate in life – jump in alone, and your princess or prince may just jump in and join the fun. An expensive purchase is not going to help like you think. Reconsider.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Catching up with old friends is lucky, and you’ll get new business leads, too. Artistry and seeing the potential in things are your gifts, and you transform everything you touch. Your partner appreciates this – for the most part.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Doing what teaches you your own strength. Support a relative or partner in an important emotional step. Avoid procrastinating on a creative endeavor. Your ability to think critically makes you a leader.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Put that wild imagination to work for you. If you can dream it up, you can do it. Setting short-term goals carries you ever closer to the long-term ones. Organize documents, records and schedules.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You do have what it takes. Work on convincing yourself first, and once you do, the rest of the world will follow suit. An old friendship is tested but remains solid. Singles find endless romantic potential with a Cancer or Virgo.
TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (October 31). Big responsibilities and great influence are in store this year, with amazing good fortune through personal vision and hard work. Fix up your home in December. Devote yourself to a cause in the new year, and rewards begin pouring in almost immediately. Power is featured in February. Signs that make your heart happy are Capricorn and Cancer. Your lucky numbers are: 4, 11, 23, 45 and 18.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Your contribution to the world is the theme. Donations are good, but you change the most when you take an active part. Small children deserve more attention. Love is possible with a colleague but not recommended.
LIBRA (Sept.23-Oct.23). Unfinished business is getting wrapped up because you make it happen. Your quest for the truth is unpleasant at times but necessary. The role of confidant gets tiring, but you are so good at it, everyone is still entrusting secrets to you.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You may be forgetting what is valuable to you and thereby leaving it vulnerable; protect your assets! Strategize before making a move. Children required boundaries and need to know that they will be enforced.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). A change of scenery is just what’s needed to keep you interested at work. If you can’t take your show on the road, at least get out for a walk or eat some place new for lunch. Students fall in love with teachers.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). If you expect to outflow a little more cash than usual, you won’t let it spoil your mood. Expenses involve upkeep, home improvement and possible transportation fixes. A course of study leads to fulfilling love.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). More daring than usual, you make choices friends will be talking about for weeks to come. Whom you trust seems critical this afternoon, but it’s really more important to act in a trustworthy fashion yourself. Like attracts like.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Someone surprising will swing by, and if your desk, house or car is a mess, you’ll be miffed. Spend the morning getting your things and your head organized. After that, it’s much easier to take what comes.
ASTROLOGICAL QUESTIONS: "What are the prospects for a long-term commitment with an Aquarius born in 1950? I am a Gemini with Capricorn rising."
Capricorn rising tells me you are tremendously understanding of loved ones, yet this sometimes makes you far too accepting in relationships, especially with men whom you respect and admire. Aquarian/Gemini love relationships are fabulous this year, and your personally are headed for marriage. Who the lucky Mr. Right is remains to be in question. You may find through the next three months that your Aquarian is not as sincere as he may say he is with his intentions. Is he newly divorced? His chart indicates that he might be. Gemini women also have luck with newly met Cancers and Leos this year. The best thing for your love life in the next three months is to let others pursue you and be hard to catch. Get busy with your many interests, especially social ones that also help a needy cause. Intellectual and political interest paint you in an exciting light, and your suitors will be varied and many. By January, you’ll have a better idea of who is really qualified to join his life with yours.
