Under the intensity of a Scorpio moon, it is clear that a journey into the depths of one’s own subconcious can mend many ills and change one’s direction. It’s not all fun and games, though we may wish it were. The sun’s final week in Libra is marked by a dynamic energy flux. If you approach projects playfully, you can handle several at once.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Get together with a partner, and re-evaluate your goals now. A slight adjustment in family expenses or other business matters could make a huge difference in your future financial security. You’ll discover luck over the telephone.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Give it another try before you say goodbye. Be content to bask in the limelight of a lover – if you try to upstage this person, you’ll be out in the cold. Keep track of your possessions; people have difficulty returning money or favors.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You will bite off more than you can chew, but go ahead, anyway. If you don’t, others will remember this slight mistake for years. Share good fortune or financial news with a lover; this person is beginning to feel left out of your life.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). A joint investment could start earning more income than you expected. Unreasonable demands by family members, especially children, will only escalate if you give in. You’ll discover luck in renting, not buying. Gear up for love.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). If a co-worker strikes your fancy; act now. Consider doing volunteer work for your community or a charity; these are great places to find new relationships. Creating harmony at work depends on how you pull off a power play.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (November 04.) You have the ability to tackle your most lofty dreams. In the last week of the month, a loved one professes his or her adoration for you. Your best signs for love are Sagittarius and Virgo. Because you resolve to see your financial plan through to the end, profits fill your pockets in December. Consider taking an overseas job offer in June, which is your best month for travel and relocation.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Use less popular, more creative methods to meet new people. Give a neighbor one more chance to amicably fix a problem. The urge to add excitement to your life may hurt a current love. You may be asked to speak for a group.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Perseverance makes you the most popular at work early in the week. Yield to the advice offered to you by a concerned Virgo. He or she holds your interests in high regard. What once seemed risky becomes familiar and soothing.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Artists get instant discipline from a mentor. Business people decide to expand their interests. Luck is found with neighbors, in games, on short trips, and by contacting distant relatives. Your new job brings community prestige.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Pulling back from a relationship further alienates someone you care deeply about. Friends come to support you in unusual ways. Co-workers are jealous of your achievement. Consider moving or traveling.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Indulge yourself; creative ideas come to you when you break your routine. Stay alert to behind-the-scenes maneuvering in love or business. Check equipment twice, as you could be blamed for technical slip-ups.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Group activities are extremely lucky. You have subdued your personality for another person. Refresh relationships, even at work, by showing the real you. A financial choice cannot be postponed.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Try to overlook contradictory information from higher-ups, and see into the heart of the matter. Research is important to a current project. Cultivate new relationships as a gift to yourself.

ASTROLOGICAL QUESTIONS: "I’m really gone on this Aries man (I’m a Cancer), who just happens to be a major jerk about 20 percent of the time. But the other 80 percent, he’s really cool. I don’t know if it’s worth the frustration, but he always seems to win me over. What do I do?"

The 20 percent jerk ratio must show marked improvement for you to stay in this relationship. If it stays the same, you’ll quickly tire. You must be a forgiving person in order to keep an Aries in your life. Their manners, like everything else in their lives, lack a final coat of polish; their opinions are often formed too rapidly. They’re often wrong, and they’ll be offended when you point out their errors – they may even yell at you. (Mars, warrior planet, is their ruler, so they get passionate bursts of adrenaline from time to time.) But their anger is temporary, and they’re very sweet to make up with. Your Aries lover will always make up for having hurt your feelings with romantic gestures and lovemaking. Male Aries are genuinely chivalrous (it’s not just a line), and they enjoy the drama of love. But for a sensitive Cancer, the initial hurts cut too deep to let you really forgive and forget.

CELEBRITY PROFILES: Will talented Jason Alexander have his own series? His chart says, yes – eventually, most likely in the year 2001. This classy Libra is actually nothing like his cheapskate character George Costanza from the show, "Seinfeld," and he believes wholeheartedly in equal partnerships. Therefore, his role as a husband and father will continue to be the most important one of his life.
