The moon in Libra emphasizes relationships, while several Virgo influences overhead make sure that we’ve carefully analyzed the most insignificant minutiae. Microscopic analysis isn’t the best thing for making love work, but since we really can’t help but go there, at least use the astral energy to extract some positive conclusions.

ARIES (March 21-April 19).
You’ve been wanting to change the world, and now, you get your call to action. Even those who used to defy you may come over to your side, as there’s the feeling today that those you thought were crazy may actually have a point.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
Learn as much as you can from the world around you. Your creative potential is impressive, but you need to focus it clearly to get results. Tip: Avoid scattering your resources through aimless dabbling. Set clear goals.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
You could find yourself in deep contemplation or heavy conversation focused on analyzing your life. Open your eyes to what’s meaningful. Dreaming up solutions is the easy part, once you recognize what needs to be fixed.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).
Don’t force yourself to get down to business – it’s pointless. The mind has many ways of working things out, sometimes through play and sometimes through serious contemplation. Messing around may lead you to a shortcut.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22).
You’re capable of amazing feats, so don’t stop what you’re doing just because you come to a point when most people would stop. It’s OK to stand out and be remarkable. Tonight, do everything in your power not to be late.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (September 16).
You get right to the point this year. You make fantastic money in October because you’re not fooling around! Relationships get more defined in November. Family ties inspire you to make important decisions before the year is up. January shows gains through investments or real estate. Your best love interests are Leo and Cancer. Your lucky numbers are: 22, 14, 39, 25 and 18.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
When you feel like running around to look for solutions at every port, stand still, and think about the one thing you don’t want to do. Chances are, that’s the very thing that will set you free. Reaching out heals a broken heart.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).
There will be many people requesting the pleasure of your company. Make time for this. At the end of the day, it’s the connection with others you’ll remember, not the pile of paper you handled on your desk.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).
You’re in serious motion! Nobody can match your pace, least of all you! Keep especially good track of your personal property. You’re vulnerable to boneheaded moves, like leaving your keys dangling in the lock.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
Your persistence has paid off. Baby steps bring you to just the place you were aiming for. Unfortunately, it’s hard for you to recognize that you’re there because your mind is already set on another distant milestone.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
If people around you are unhappy, it’s not necessarily bad news for you. It could be your chance to prove your loyalty and helpfulness. You may even save the day with a quick improvement strategy.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
You don’t have to travel a great distance to experience new worlds. They are just beyond your own front door. It’s the people and cultures, not the latitude and longitude, that open new worlds for your exploring.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
You’ll be thinking about how you fit in and what you might do to become a more essential part of a particular group. In fact, you don’t have to DO anything. Just have the attitude that you’re all on the same team.

ASTROLOGICAL QUESTIONS:
"I’m a 16-year-old Libra who finds it easy to fall in love. But when I do, it never works out. There are two guys I’m interested in currently. One is a 15-year-old Gemini, and the other is 18. I’m just not sure. Who do I choose?"

Libra people are naturally monogamous, preferring the security of one special friendship to the prospect of dating around, even when dating around is a more age-appropriate choice. Libra and Gemini are both air signs, and I think you’ll find much in common, even though this Gemini is a little younger than you. Also, as you may be aware, you’re at a tricky age when dating someone who is technically an adult holds with it all kinds of complications, especially legal ones. As a Libra, you’re working on your self-definition by partnering up with new friends. These friends help reflect back to you an image of who you are. I challenge you to also get in touch with your identity by exploring areas of interest outside of your interest in guys, especially activities that contribute to your educational goals, like going to college. The funny part is that it’s while doing these activities that you meet the dishiest guys!

CELEBRITY PROFILES:
Ipredict a surge of notice this year for "Gilmore Girls" star Alexis Bledel. This young starlet will be photographed at parties and red-carpet events and become a style icon for her generation. Her smart-girl image will make her a respected role model in an age when many popular performers of the time say they don’t want to be role models. Virgo peopole takesocial and civic responsibility quite seriously!
