2003 ASTROLOGICAL SPECIAL FOR TAURUS: This year, when you reach for something, it’s yours. You start the year off with the right attitude for winning. The trick is to keep your focus, even when the end of the month provides you with a delightful distraction. It’s not that you can’t have love in your life and still meet your goals. It’s more like you might have a tendency to choose someone who takes a lot of energy so you have an excuse why x, y or z didn’t happen when you thought it would. Just be aware of where the energy goes. February features a change in your spending patterns. March and August are terrific travel months. Family bonds can be cemented on foreign soil. The end of a project in June will make room for something (or someone) special to drop into your life. Many deals will be presented to you in April. Be wary of any situation where it’s more about the money than the work. June is like a fast car – take safety measures, and then, have a blast. Get your team together for July, when good things come to the group mentality. Your luckiest month, however, is November. Your big risk pays off. Fantastically lucky signs are Gemini, Capricorn and hotblooded Scorpio.
CELEBRITY PROFILES: There’s no question that feisty actress Lucy Liu is a fire sign! This passionate Sagittarius led the way to breaking down race barriers on the big screen and will continue to gravitate toward roles that expand the options for minorities on the silver screen. For Sagittarius, breaking down boundaries is merely par for the course. Seeking only their own approval, they can be bold in the face of adversity.
