ZODIACAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR TODAY
ARIES (March 21-April 19): You're ready to take charge in polarized situations. You don't take sides, but want to bring people together. Important work can suffer unless you find creative, negotiated settlements.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You take charge in situations where leadership is lacking. Your wide experience helps you bridge cultural or philosophic divides. By building coalitions, you create wider opportunities for others.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): While you want wide and sweeping changes, your focus should be on what you can actually accomplish with your own efforts. You need a clear understanding of how far your influence really extends.
CANCER (June 21-July 22): You pull others ahead with will-power and a positive attitude. You want to win and to let others share in the sense of accomplishment. Your positive attitude convinces others to let you take charge.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): You want to get to the top of you job now. You can negotiate terms for being hired, for a raise, or for a promotion. You succeed if you show you are a team player and can work with opposition groups.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You are seeing ways to get people to think about how to make changes. You sense vast discontent in associates, and you can catalyze a sense of action, breaking people free of a sense of helplessness.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Build success from local and familiar sources. You need not venture far afield to garner support. You can be convincing by appealing to past success and showing that you can follow through on promises.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): You break out from your usual group of friends to meet new people. You especially appreciate those who give you a new slant on life and bring a sense of excitement or novelty.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You do the unexpected today and force a lot of changes thereby. You don't want to let improvements come through slow committee meetings. You need to also trust the good will of negotiators.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You are so optimistic that you're in danger of trusting events to play out as you want, where in fact your active participation is required. People will enjoy your input and your cooperation.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You are trying to figure out how to take a commanding position, and perhaps you spend too much time planning and dreaming about it. You need to reach out to others and discover how you fit in.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): You take an activist role today. Situations need reform because of their direct impact on you. You take a hand in recruiting others, primarily through educating people on the real state of affairs.
These interpretations are based on the aspects and positions of the planets in relation to each Sun-sign. They indicate the general mood and issues of the day as you experience them. Be creative in applying your forecast to the actual circumstances of your life.
