ZODIACAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR TODAY

ARIES (March 21-April 19): You have a lot of information to convey so you must take extra time to make it coherent and comprehensible. Resist the urge to jumble facts, to lose a continuous train of thought.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You are highly upbeat and helpful today. Maintaining this attitude affects your health positively. You may be challenged to maintain this mood if you encounter rebuffs and failures.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): You are very active and events can change quickly. You need to tweak procedures and make minor revisions when proofreading. Be ready to adapt to sudden changes of plans but broadly keep to schedules.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): There is a strong focus on relationships with your spouse. You are both successful independently of each other but there may be some conflict or unease when you're together.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): You get involved with many projects but may have trouble keeping up with them all. You need to zero in on the things that are important or the things that can be started and then finished quickly.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You are very careful with your money today. You want to review how much you're making. You may get a job review, implicitly if not officially. You may feel the need for making a job search.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You have a clear formulation of certain ideas you've been developing. If in a learning situation, it is good to review and restate what you've been taught to ensure your comprehension is good.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): You are not in a position to make demands or decisions. Mostly, you are asking permission or begging for cooperation. You're challenged to build consensus without appearing weak.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You want to get things done today and are very busy running errands, communicating and making sure schedules are being met. You may be too impatient, too anxious, and not content enough to let things go.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You are very aware of the fact you seem to be "called" to do something better. Take opportunities to grow, to advance, to learn. Where you put others first, there you succeed.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You are very inquisitive and mentally active. You can excel at games requiring knowledge and memorization. This is a very good day to study or to communicate long-distance over the phone or the Internet.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): You must downplay spontaneity in favor of social learning. Pranks are out of place or simply immature. People are trying to teach you manners or social skills and there is much to learn about yourself.

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.
