Taking responsibility for your actions is the uppermost concern at this time. Make sure that you can follow through on something before you volunteer for extra duty at work or you consider staying late to work. Give yourself time to think before you act.

Fast walking, dancing with a loved one or taking a dance class is a big plus this evening. You will find
this fun bit of exercise is a great way to strengthen and firm your body.

If you are shopping for those shoes this afternoon, add some music to your list. Exercise or romance is in order tonight.

Virgo (August 23-September 22)
Material things and the whole concept of value take on more importance for you at this time and you concentrate on your work and aim for the results: financial security and enjoying the finer things in life, appreciating and creating things others long to have. Big ideas and grand visions may play a leading role in your life. Mysterious or mystical information fires your imagination. Keep a cautious mind-do not believe everything you hear. You may hear about a large sum of money that you could receive if you participate in some easy-sounding task that would seem to cost you nothing. Run as fast as you can in another direction. Now . . . Keep your positive thinking toward your work and you will have your own reward. This is the time of year in which you and your family might be planning a big garage sale for the weekend. Working this day takes priority and you work to keep your mind on your work. The organizing of this garage sale will need to be happening after work. You could add in a few wrapped ideas for holiday gifts and make them surprise items. This could consist of colorful blank writing tablets, thank-you notes, piggybanks, etc. Price them fairly and wrap them with a little decoration. Later tonight you and a friend may get into the discussion of purchasing a new vehicle. Perhaps you will be able to buy a car in the spring . . . This winter is for family. You can demonstrate great sensitivity to the needs of others and you seem to know just how to help. Professional advice works in your best interest at this time. Some hint of a guide to help you with your business or your advancement in the workplace. This is a good time to make some changes and reach new levels of accomplishment. You can handle whatever is presented for your advice or attention. You may look back on this time as very transforming. There are new ideas that are forward thinking and motivating. You may learn things now that alter your viewpoint. If you take information flowing to you now, one at a time, you can eliminate a lot of stress. Tonight is a fun night and you have the camera ready for all the decorations and costumes. A party has been planned and you have a lot of fun preparing for the party and attending the event.
Aquarius (January 20- February 18)
You probably do not have to worry about your weight, but still-you might be interested in new trends and what people are doing to stay healthy. There is a lot of talk among co-workers and tips with suggestions are easy to find. You are interested in what people are doing during this winter festival time but you are also careful in how you cull through the label of ingredients. Stress is much easier to wade through if your body is up to the climb. Check out the large health food stores that have fresh food and watch what those healthy looking customers are ordering. Check out the hearthealthy diet. This is a nice day that should just flow along. In particular, you will do well in work and in projects around your home.
High-level differences of opinion or outlook represent an important area of change. Fresh insight comes to you through mass media, giving you a new perspective. You want to get things organized, and you have the initiative to do it. This is a time of ambition and responsibility, a time to keep your cool and pace yourself. This afternoon your presence is requested. Children are getting used to your helpful ways and your suggestions are needed to find the last minute costume or face paint art. An important relationship, perhaps with a young person or someone in your near environment, may come into focus as well. A bit of praise is most important. You have a lot of energy for practical
decisions, but take care that you do not come across too strong.
