The Gemini moon/Aquarius sun combination unleashes a wave of social energy that’s easy to get caught up in. Many are actually looking forward to getting back to work for the interaction and sense of purpose it provides. Creative people get the acknowledgement they need _ great for anyone who’s been working in a vacuum.

ARIES (March 21-April 19)
. Lessons have to do with recognizing your authentic self and those particular attributes that ar5e totally unique to you. It’s not hard to tell the difference between what’s yours and what you covet but shouldn’t have.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
Children (or childish people) do crazy things to get your attention. This can be curtailed if you focus on these guys before they need it. Isn’t it nice to know how important you are to others?

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
Reading, writing and arithmetic are features whether or not you’re in school. Be grateful for any situation that points out a hole in your education. It’s lucky to fill in those blanks now, especially for singles.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).
It’s dandy that you know the system, but now, you’ll have to just forget everything. Going by the rules isn’t going to work because so many changes are quickly thrown into the mix. Accessing your creativity is key.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22).
A love triangle takes over your personal life. Don’t let it get you too confused. Know what you want, and commit to getting it no matter what others are doing. If everyone minds his or her own business, things work out.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (February 10).
Others sense that you’re good with yourself and the universe at large this year. This figures in with the wild approval you get this month. Finally, you have the confidence to cut ties that held you back last year. By March, you’ll be in new, more liberating relationships. Your love life improves because you are more adventurous. Your lucky numbers this year are: 15, 22, 25, 52 and 7.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
What you hear over the proverbial grapevine is best ignored, no matter who it’s about. Someone who puts on a strong front and refuses to hide out no matter what people are saying is someone worthy of your friendship.

LIBRA (Sept.23-Oct.23).
Get that persistent self-doubt out of your mind. Just imagine what kind of a toll it is taking on you. You’ll be relieved when you let it go. Everyone needs a break tonight, so loved ones should get the laughs and humor going.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).
This is a day of reversals. Homemakers might do a stint in some kind of management training program. Big bosses may work in the day care. Have fun playing with people’s perceptions, doing what they don’t expect of you.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
Be the brave rebel, and everyone wants you on his or her team. On the job, you’ll see people starting to align with your ideas. This gives you the security and reinforcement you require in order to contribute fully.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
If you complained that nothing much happened over the weekend, now it really picks up. Tumultuous feelings brought on by a change in someone close to you will affect your decisions, perhaps more than you should let it.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
Any display of confidence you make today is lucky. Talk about your strengths to the ones who are in a position to use them to their fullest. In a job-finding mission, whoever is not right can lead you to the person who is.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
Freaky, unexpected events unfold at work. You may as well approach your job as a stud in human nature. The one who seeks your opinion really wants your approval. Don’t speak against a sweetie’s family.

STATE OF THE HEART (PART TWO OF SIX):
Most years, Valentine’s Day is seen as the time to figure out who it is you love and how to reveal your interest, or to take good care of the loved ones in your life. This week, however, the planets align in such a way to encourage people to look deep within to determine their heart’s desire on another level. While pursuing your dream seems to have nothing to do with a relationship right now, it will only make the relationships in your life much stronger. Gemini: before you took a turn toward being a "serious adult," you used to have a "no-fun, no-go" policy. If you needed permission to reinstate your policy, this is it. All that adult stuff wasn’t really working for you anyway, was it? V-Day sweeties who know how to help you be your best are Leo and Libra. CANCER: When you are busy living up to the expectations of someone you admire, it’s easy to lose your way. You are happiest when you dare to fall out of favor with this one. There’s really no glory in following other people’s dreams unless they are yours, too. Look for Virgo and Scorpio to be delightful V-Day sweeties.

CELEBRITY PROFILES:
"NBC Nightly News" anchor Tom Brokaw has been one of America’s leading broadcasters for nearly two decades. In an altruistic Aquarian move, he put off his retirement in order to serve the public by covering world events in the post-Sept. 11 era. His Capricorn moon shows the ability to keep an emotional distance, remain cool and deliver the goods even in the worst of circumstances.
