Mars gets down to business in Capricorn, reminding us that, though dreams are important, it’s the doing that makes a difference. Role up your sleeves – even the big bosses will be getting their hands dirty today. And Mercury starts to take hold in Pisces, the sign of souls. Communication happens in all kinds of other worldly ways.

ARIES (March 21-April 19)
. Everyone notices your new attitude. Love tip: Mr. or Mrs. Right is someone who is loyal, cheerful and a real help to you when you need t. Buying used helps the entire financial picture, and you get just what you need, too.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
Ups and downs are more easily weathered when you reach out to others. Share what you know, and others respond in kind. Sex appeal is high. There s a surge of interest in your ideas; guard against potential vampires.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
You provide plenty for others – turn that nurturing spirit toward yourself. You can accomplish this without shopping, believe it or not. Besides, luxuries that seem affordable really aren’t when you look at the whole financial picture.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).
Ask others what they think, and really listen. You’ll get to the point you no longer have to ask – you can tell by the way they hold their body or shift their eyes. Sometimes, the "sixth sense" comes from focusing on the other five!

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22).
Increase the sum total of this world’s happiness. Give some kind, sincere words to someone who is having a hard time of it. You may never know how a loving act affects the rest of the world, but you can be certain that it does.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (March 05).
You attract more than your share of attention this year! A can-do attitude gets you promoted this month. Baby steps in the next four weeks add up to a very satisfying romance, possibly with a Cancer or Sagittarius. Big money comes from utilizing talents with a side business in May. Money problems are solved in August when you’re open to hard work. Your lucky numbers are: 34, 2, 19, 5 and 6.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
You’ll be juggling quite a lot today. Playing favorites won’t work to make anyone feel special, but someone will feel terrible if you forget him or her. That’s why it’s best to be as impartial as possible.

LIBRA (Sept.23-Oct.23).
You may find yourself saying what you didn’t think you had the courage to say. Once you’ve expressed your true feelings, you’ll be tempted to worry about what will happen. Instead, detach yourself form the outcome.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).
Daydreams and idle notions bring luck. So get the to-do list over with (and eat right, too) because you need a block of unstructured time to let your mind surf the collective unconscious. Reconstruct a tired concept.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
Special moments of solitude put you back in touch with your highest ideals – if you don’t have time, make time. Personal ambitions are highlighted; get in touch with them. Set at least one goal to satisfy your alone.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
Taking inventory clears the cobwebs. Make a list of what to keep and what to throw out – you don’t have to do it for real just yet if it’s too hard. There’s a prime chance this afternoon to turn that flirtation into romance.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
It’s a lovely day to enjoy your friends, and, if given the chance to expand your circle of acquaintances, go for it! Even superficial conversations can lead to important insights. Demonstrate what kind of person you are.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
Big challenges are ahead, so sharpen your thinking skills (special vitamins can help, too). All new efforts at work are favored, as are relationships with co-workers – especially new people whom you can show the ropes.

ASTROLOGICAL QUESTIONS:
"I read you every day and want to know why my love life is so miserable. March 8 is my birthday."

Pisces experience more than their share of genuine tragedy in love before finding a suitable companion. You have your moon in independent Gemini, which says you like to have plenty free time to be with your own friends and pursuits. Yet your Mars in Taurus attracts mates who are possessive and want you to fill their needs first. You are meant to be in a serving profession and would make an excellent nurse, child-care worker or counselor. Through such fields, you’ll gain plenty of love and feelings of worth, for your Venus in Pisces is capable of giving without expecting a reward and thrives on helping others. In marriage, however, you tend to act the same way – yet you resent not getting emotional satisfaction in return. You always get physical satisfaction, but somehow, emotional comfort is missing in your partners. More than one marriage is shown in your chart. A sudden but intense attraction develops this year, leading to a marriage unlike any of your others. Perhaps your husband is first your employer!

CELEBRITY PROFILES:
The original Man in Black, Johnny Cash, is an icon of cool. With Jupiter retrograde in Leo, he’s got a kind of backward luck for show biz. It seems he’s loved equally for what he’s done right and for what he’s done wrong. His honesty and ability to beautifully integrate the bright and dark sides of human nature make him a brilliant artist, expert storyteller and legendary entertainer.
