Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Socially, you are often the lead player. Relate to a key person on a one-on-one level. He or she needs some special time with you. Go along with what this person asks. As a result, you might feel refreshed and more centered than you have in a while. Tonight: Dinner for two.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
