A lucky aspect forms as Mars and Saturn do their flirty dance – your ambitions are your best teachers, and you needn’t look far to get the very lesson that, once learned, is your success secret. Utilize the Scorpio sun’s power to be shrewd, honest and lean in your approach to learning. Defensiveness has no part in a triumphant equation.

ARIES (March 21-April 19).
Sentimental moments get you more emotional than usual. Your heightened sensitivity becomes comfortable. Friends are there for you in laughter and in tears, a testament to what a terrific friend you are.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
Hold off on getting a definitive answer. Life’s mysteries are good for the soul. At work, the victories of the past don’t necessarily have bearing on present competitions. Hone your skills, and there’s no way you can be beat.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
You break from routine and don’t feel one ounce of guilt about it. In matters of love, you’re rebounding from a stint of over-commitment. It’s right and necessary to revamp your relationship if you feel constrained.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).
You have a knack for finding rare treasures. People line up to buy your one-of-a-kind items. The games you play don’t often involve brute strength but rather your agile mind. Libra and Scorpio put you to the test.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22).
Your brain is going a million miles a minute today. You’re hungry for information, endlessly reading and thinking. Your best answers come from people close to you, specifically Cancer and Pisces. Support groups boost you up.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (November 13).
Your elegance wins everyone over this year. People love your class. Make a play for a promotion in the next two weeks – your approach is what supervisors are looking for. Look for blessings that arrive in unusual ways. A lucky-in-love February sees you swinging on the arm of a Gemini or Taurus. Money follows if you’re on the move. Your lucky numbers are: 31, 4, 51, 9 and 24.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
You’re fed up with depriving yourself of simple pleasures. Buy, make or otherwise acquire exactly what you want. At work, telephone conversations could eat up your precious time. Screen calls.

LIBRA (Sept.23-Oct.23).
Peace, love and understanding? You’ve got all three. Love relationships are happily drama free, and you come to a peaceful understanding with those affiliated (in laws, sibling and exes).

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).
Self-discipline forces you to pass up smaller opportunities in lieu of grander goals. But are you letting too many minor joys fall by the wayside while you’re looking for lasting happiness? Let little delights guide you.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
It’s time to start over and be totally self-reliant. Eliminate connections to outdated traditions, and take yourself exactly where you want to be. Friends come off as harsh even though they are just trying to be helpful.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
Life is hectic – relax your tight grip on precise schedules. Spontaneity revitalizes you. You meet an associate who shares similar financial needs. It turns out there are more people around you looking for the same thing.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
You feel like righting some wrongs. Rather than trying to change the whole world, change your world instead. Send thank-you notes, clean your oven, or make cookies for a friend.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
This is a stay-at-home, play-at-home day. A break from social life builds up your inner reserves. Don’t feel guilty telling people you’re busy– you’re busy resting. This evening, you’re on the phone fast when important news breaks.

ASTROLOGICAL QUESTIONS:
"I’m an 18-year-old girl under the sign of Capricorn. I just want to know in which field I belong because suddenly I feel so unhappy with the course I’m taking up (computer programmer). I’m quite interested in aeronautics. What should I do? If I shift, would it be a good field for a Capricorn like me?"

Yes, make the shift. It’s important that you not only feel magnetically drawn to a line of study, but that you also enjoy the nuts and bolts work involved so much that you lose time while engaged in the required tasks. Truthfully, in your life you will be leading people more than doing the actual work you are studying now, but it’s important that you learn every element of your job well because you might have to teach it to others. Capricorn girls are terrific leaders and are exceptionally good at casting the right person for a job. Whatever you study, you will probably be very quickly moving up the chain of command in that line of work, and your job will be more of an overseer of projects. To be so serious at such a young age is very Capricorn of you!

CELEBRITY PROFILES:
The future of late-night television is being tested with hopeful candidates such as Scorpio Jimmy Kimmel. Does this "Man Show" host have what it takes to be among the next wave of talk-show greats? Indications in his chart point to a better-than-average intuition about people, making for a smooth interviewing style, and Venus in Libra shows easy rapport with audiences and guests alike.
