Aries (Mar 21 - Apr. 19): Your magnetism and charm will make it mere child’s play to make new friends or get together with valuable business contacts.
Taurus (Apr. 20 - May 20): You may hold unique points of view but these will be a positive asset, so let your voice be heard. Work will seem like child’s play as you will have a little extra spring in your step.
Gemini (May 21 - June 20): The shortest distance between two points may not be a straight line. Employ a little strategy to solve a problem as tackling it head on could be frustrating. Meeting people with unusual perspectives could be enlightening.
Cancer (June 21 - July 22): March to your own drummer. Be self-reliant by making your own decisions and solving problems yourself, as others may not be very enthusiastic to lend a hand. What amazes the rest of the pack may not appeal to you at all.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Make your mark. Your success should be gauged on your accomplishments, not who you know, so give 100 percent effort to tasks. You exude a magnetism that will make you the center of attention whether you like it or not.
Virgo (Aug. 23 - Sept. 22): Hold your head up high. Resolve to succeed and your confidence will carry you over whatever obstacles lie in the path ahead. The lights should all be green for getting your latest plan of action up and running.
Libra (Sept. 23 - Oct. 22.): Learn to walk before you run. Trying to do too much too quickly could leave you with a mess. Take your time and do the job right. Let things happen naturally and don’t try to press a love interest into making a commitment.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): See things as they are not how you want them to be. Don’t mistake politeness for flirtation. Not every smile flashed in your direction is an invitation. Ask a trusted source for advice as your view may be overly optimistic. Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21):Don’t
knock it until you’ve tried it. Keep an open mind about new technology or methods and you may actually benefit. Break away from the routine by meeting new people and visiting new places.
Capricorn (Dec. 22 - Jan. 19): The winds of change are at your back. It may be time to retool your approach by fixing what hasn’t been working and augmenting what has. Important decisions need to be made, but there’s no rush to do it.
Aquarius (Jan. 20 - Feb. 18): Have an agenda when meeting new people who can help you make progress and achieve your goals. Mind your words carefully as innocent flirtation could be mistaken for a serious play.
Pisces (Feb. 19 - Mar. 20): Don’t give in to pressure. Someone may be difficult to negotiate with or want too much in return. Make a decision because you want to, not because someone leaves you no other options. Make no deal rather than a bad one.
If August 23 is your birthday: Lady Luck is cheering you on during the upcoming four to six weeks. This is an excellent time to relax, travel or to enjoy the fruits of your labors. However, since your foresight and judgment is at its best it is also a great time to make crucial decisions or to put important matters into motion. You can rest assured that anyone who grows closer has your best interests at heart. Farseeing wisdom is still at your disposal in October so you will have an extended time period in which to get your most important plans off the ground. You will need to put vacation plans on hold in December and remain organized to handle extra responsibilities. If you are looking for love you will be in the right places in April. That is a good time to make crucial commitments such as starting a new job or making a promise.
