The new moon in Aries is impossible to please with any action that doesn’t happen right now. You may as well go forward with a healthy dose of entitlement, since anyone who feels undeserving is going to have troubled holding on to any kind of good luck. Venus in Pisces may cast a rosy glow on the past, but try to keep focused on the present.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You desire and passion will eventually make you very wealthy. Scope out new ways to turn your ambition in to profit. You find heady romance with someone you never thought of in that way before. Keep your affections secret now.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Family members dwindle away your dollars. Separate your work relationships from your relatives in order to keep financial trouble at bay. Your ability to deal with difficult people amazes a kindred spirit.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You solve a mystery at work, and colleagues commend you on your effort. Instead of spending more time resting at home, sign up for a class that will bring you new source of energy. A relationship with a Pisces evolves.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Your domestic situation begs for attention. You can change the whole vibe with music. Search the house for the piece of information you lost. Others are grateful when you share your insights with them.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You have an innate ability to win people over with your charm. You use stellar communication skills to work your way toward a promotion. Proposals concerning new kinds of relationships come just when you’re most ready.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (April 1). In this year of reaping rewards, the next three weeks are prime for launching new ways of putting your talent to work for you. Be certain of yourself, as confidence makes the difference. Many singles find themselves delightfully committed in June. Complete personal projects in July, and career falls right in line. You’ll climb the ladder at work all summer. Your lucky numbers are: 2, 41, 53, 26 and 18.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Open up to all kinds of people today. An uninvited guest leaves you amazed. A loved one asks for more than you have; give what you can. Your spiritual connections with others will be very strong tonight.

LIBRA (Sept.23-Oct.23). Friends vie for your attention. You receive many invitations, but personal calls at work bother your colleagues. Attend to your personal matters on breaks. A lucrative situation pops up tonight, possibly involving an Aquarius.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Sharing an assignment or job forges a lighthearted, social bond. A co-worker turns into a friend. Be ready for dates filled with zesty and flirtatious fun. The evolving partnership will be hugely productive.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). A third party (an ex or secret competitor) provides romantic entanglement, but have no worries since trouble only brings the two of you closer. Cash flow that is dependent on another person’s wealth isn’t dependable.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). A charitable venture brims with satisfaction and fun. Join a large professional group to create a hot chance for you to gain the skills required to move up the corporate ladder. Watch for a lucky Sagittarian contact.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Snap up extra work; the surplus income gives you a chance to splurge on yourself, paint your house, or escape to a cozy bed and breakfast out of town. You and a simpatico hobbyist teams up as a profitable pair.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Complexities gives your love affair intriguing twists. Anything involving the outdoors will boost your romantic appeal. Love blossoms on a trip with an environmental group. Job seekers: A last-minute chance lands you a prime post.

ASTROLOGICAL QUESTIONS: "I’m a Libra born in 1961 and met a Cancer man a year ago. He denied being in a relationship at the time. I was told otherwise, and when I confronted him, he said that things were on the rocks with the other person back then. We’ve decided to remain friends. Is there any future in this relationship?"

Your Leo moon gives you a tendency to go for the passion in relationships and conveniently forget about the less glamorous reality of things. My sense is that you knew a year ago that this man was in a relationship. I also think that your relationship was already going south when you confronted your man with the "other person" theory. And now that you’re just friends, it really doesn’t matter anymore, except that when you get in a certain mood, you like to call him and try to get him to admit the truth because when the two of you are in a fight, it feels like intimacy. What you need is real intimacy that comes from leaving the drama behind and giving your love to someone who is available to return the affection. Stop badgering this man about what’s done, and move on to finding the big love you deserve with someone else. A Capricorn or Pisces will appreciate your wholly.

CELEBRITY PROFILES: Steven Tyler couldn’t fulfill a requests to be the King of Orpheus for Mardi Gras this year due to other contractual obligations, but he could make it up to fans next year by not only doing the appearance but agreeing to be set up on a blind date with one lucky admirer. Tyler is a playful Aries whose fiery passion both on stage and off is legendary. He could follow his daughter’s lead and do a small film role.
