The journey of Venus into Gemini bodes well for self-expression and lots of sophisticated flair. I like to think of this transit in fashion terms – Venus takes off her dungarees and slips into a Christian Dior pants suit. It’s time to have flirty, glamorous discussions, decide to have and be a fabulous friend, and get involved in the game of life.

ARIES (March 21-April 19)
. Mental limitations are self-imposed. Believe you can, and you’ll make amazing progress. Send a letter to someone you’ve never met but to whom you have something to say. Loved ones need career advice or general motivation.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
Make bold decisions independently, though everyone is offering help, opinions and ways for you to spend your money. Forward movement cannot be denied now. Professionals move up the corporate ladder.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
You have been holding back important thoughts – communicate them. If you want to be wealthy, you must develop habits that wealthy people have. Ask, observe, and read about such things.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).
Intention is the most important element in making that big sale. When you believe that your service or product will really make the client’s life better, it’s a slam dunk. If you don’t believe that, it’s time to figure out why.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22).
Taking part in a group endeavor helps you cover a lot of bases at once. You have a way of turning the tables in your favor but must work on your courage and raise your energy level to do it.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (June 16).
Your health and the well-being of those close to you is ensured by your amazing healing capacity this year. Slow and easy in July gets the job done, but August moves up to a fever pitch. October brings many amazing ways to make money. Take your pick for major bucks. Cupid’s arrow hits you hard in February. March is your most pivotal month. Your lucky numbers are: 12, 33, 19, 56 and 8.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
A theatrical tinge to the day practically can’t be helped, so roll with it. Don’t be surprised if loved ones give you a show to remember – they can’t help letting the inner clown or tragedian out.

LIBRA (Sept.23-Oct.23).
Trivial matters lead to more substantial work, so don’t be afraid to amuse yourself with seemingly frivolous distractions. After all, if you don’t follow your interests, life can be very uninspiring. Back down from a family confrontation.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).
New happenings in your life far outweigh past losses. The rules of love are shifting into a set that you can really stick to. When loved one shares your ideals, the path is easier. Friendship, however, is another matter.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
Forget the past, and formulate new plans. Ignore information from those you really don’t know. Borrowing and lending make a friendship awkward, so don’t go there. Romance starts with an ordinary gesture.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
Deserving the best doesn’t automatically mean you’re going to get it. Your forceful personality could intimidate certain friends, but when you step back and think it over, you might decide you’ve outgrown these folks.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
Try to get some kind of commitment from a loved one. Unconfirmed plans keep your future up in the air when you want it pinned down. Your career path gets crystal clear as soon as you get back to work.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
You have the instinct for making money but don’t necessarily find this easy to do. For peace of mind, go over your monthly bank statement. Keeping money and friendship separate will help you hang on to both.

ASTROLOGICAL QUESTIONS:
"After being lost and confused for so many years, I feel that I have finally discovered what I really want to do for a career. I want to check with you and make sure that I am on the right track because this is such an important decision for me to make. I plan to pursue a career in the food industry. I’m going to take some cooking classes in Australia, gain some work experience there, and then open my own restaurant in the Philippines. Will I succeed in the food industry? I was born March 12, 1980."

Your Mars in Leo makes your career path strong – even though, as a Pisces, you have had a hard time making up your mind. Follow it with force now that you’ve decided. Mars in Leo also means you’re a natural leader. This turns out to be profitable when you open your own restaurant in 2007. The biggest problem you will have is being patient enough to know when you have gained enough experience. Wait at least a year longer than when you first feel like moving away. The extra time you spend in Australia garners you valuable insights about people and their ever-changing palates.

CELEBRITY PROFILES:
Johnny Depp may be an intelligent Gemini, but he’s also got quite a lot of sensual earth-sign energy in his chart to put him in touch with the rhythms and music of nature. Though his music career is secondary to his life as a movie star, Depp could do a composing project under a different name and wind up playing guitar on a movie soundtrack. His musical talents will be used more as time passes.
