STAR TRACK

Aries (March 21-April 19)

This Sunday you may be moved to take risks. When we become truly inspired by something that we consider to be extraordinary then truly extraordinary things begin to happen for us—particularly in our thought process. Today you are inspired. Science projects or artistic opportunities spark ideas in your head. This could also mean a shop has begun to teach some fun through small classes in some type of art or science class. You may even decide to have your own class in your garage; perhaps a guest could teach. What a great way to learn, earn money for the holidays or enjoy the company of a loved one while experimenting with art. A little exercise away from home is a good thing: a long walk, jogging or biking is good for body and mind.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Practical matters are uppermost in your mind—you sort out anything that needs doing. Taking care of personal business may be the major theme where your emotional orientation is concerned. You like organization and practicality and you want to get things accomplished. After the bills are written and the letters are answered you may decide today is the perfect time to pay a visit to a museum or library or to attend a lecture. There are some profound changes available for you now, on a personal level— psychologically and perhaps physically as well—as if you are transforming into an entirely new person. Friends want to socialize tonight and you may join them—keep an eye on your diet. Good feelings, laughter and hugs come easily this evening.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Your emotions are not in tune with the more sensitive and private areas of your life. Push on now without gaining some kind of focus and you risk some very turbulent emotional scenes. Take some time to enjoy a hobby or some form of self-expression. This is a very contemplative day as you delve back into your memories and reassess many of the pivotal events of your life. This would be a good time to go through the old photograph albums. You are looking for some level of meaning now and will examine your past looking for patterns. Look at the achievements that you have made recently. With a new focus on your goals, the time is positive for new beginnings. Refreshed and refurbished, consider a night of dancing this evening.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

You seem to be in a hurry this day—which may place yourself at odds with others. You could make mistakes you regret. Pace yourself—others want to help you. You have a lot of energy for making improvements in your surroundings or life situations. You are motivated to improve. This could also involve repair or decoration of your home. A short trip into the country, for nature’s artistic gifts—colored leaves, berries, herbal seeds—may involve the whole family. Your support system—family, home, those who give you nourishment—becomes more secure these days. You are able to dispense with some of the unessential and develop what is most true in your environment. You encourage better support and are able to lend a helping hand.

Leo (July 23-August 22)

There are many meaningful days this month. The energies present at this time seem to bring out your unique qualities. You and your friends have plans for the afternoon and you should have a blast with all the activity that they have planned. A game could be played and may be an incentive to use your imagination. You could be very inventive when ingenuity is needed. There is a desire to explore all kinds of new horizons. Travel, education and other ways to stretch your horizons open new doors of opportunity soon. This is a good day to think about your next vacation or drive to the country to collect colorful fall leaves for decorating your home. Time away from your regular responsibilities brings a renewed appreciation of your life.

Virgo (August 23-September 22)

Friends and distant family members have a need to stay in touch today. The phone is ringing and an accidental sighting of a friend may have many of your friends wanting to chat about the next reunion or holiday gathering. This is a great time to be with others. If you are visiting in-laws or family members today, make it a point to give thanks to your host or hostess. Forgetfulness may be the earmark of the day’s energies; keep notes. You find inspiration for a creative talent—art, poetry, etc.—and may find yourself encouraged to teach a creative class before the next holiday season: perhaps greeting cards, thank you notes or handmade gifts. You are positive and will encourage

others to either keep up their good work or to follow through with needed changes.

Libra (September 23-October 22)

Challenges provide you with many choices and this is one of those days when there should be thinking before acting. Stay as focused as possible on whatever projects you have set out for yourself; you will be quite satisfied at the results. You could be building the model of the next super airplane or spaceship. Conversations with friends this afternoon could get into things like time travel or a psychic premonition. There is the possibility of new visions or sudden insights into your self-image or into your ideals and dreams. You may find breakthroughs in understanding as you view a situation from a different angle. You put a lot of consideration into reshaping and renewing your philosophy or religion, during which your imagination is at full tilt.

Scorpio (October 23-November 21)

This is the best time this month to start a diet or a new exercise plan. You have an instinctive urge to get serious about taking care of yourself. Diet, exercise and work somehow mean more now: you want to feel good about yourself and the way you do things. You could have difficulty getting outer recognition for your efforts or accomplishments. This does not mean they are worthless but it does mean you should throw your efforts into work or a venture you really love doing. A friend wants your approval on an upcoming decision. This evening would be a good time to spend with a loved one. Emotions are up and you may even find yourself pondering a bit on the meaning of life.

Generally, this may prove to be a very satisfying day.

Sagittarius (November 22-December 21)

You may be able to enjoy your life situation this Sunday. A friend may occupy much of your day with activities that are enjoyable for the both of you. There is much communication between you and your friend. This is a good day to enjoy taking some time off from the everyday sort of routine and just having a good time. You appreciate your particular situation and enjoy support from those around you. Outer circumstances and the flow of events make it easy for you to make clear decisions, see the road ahead and gain a focus for future action. Things seem to fall into place and progress is easy. Be careful not to overextend yourself at this time. This weekend may bring about a greater than usual interest in relationships, social connections and the arts.

Capricorn (December 22-January 19)

Emotional security, a sense of belonging and nurturing are felt instinctively now. You want roots, and you want a sense of intimate connection. You make every effort to improve your living conditions as well as relationships. You value what is factual and straightforward and have a particular repugnance to anything secret. You know you must be willing to listen in order to have the best communication between hard-to-understand people. Making a good impression and putting your best foot forward takes on greater importance now as you receive many social invitations this fall. You may be reassessing your wardrobe as appearances and styles are important to you. Romance, the arts and life’s other pleasures take center stage now.

Aquarius (January 20- February 18)

There is a more outgoing quality to your lifestyle now. Besting others in the heat of competition and taking on a leadership role mean more to you now than in the past: second best is not good enough! This may mean some sort of competition involvement. It could also mean that it is time for the annual “tell the best scary story” competition. This could be in your own home, your neighborhood, in your neighborhood library, etc. Rules that keep stories age appropriate can be decided upon and the fun begins. A meeting may be formed to create a writing format if the group would rather not have a spur of the moment format. The fall is such a good opportunity for teaching that you enjoy regular times to collect information and to teach information.

Pisces (February 19-March 20)

You are in control today and it is up to you to keep the peace. This may mean you have more seniority than your peers or it could mean you have been appointed a particular responsibility. This is called power and it is not a bad word! Once you adapt to the concept of power, you may acknowledge that you are able to successfully make a positive difference in whatever you are trying to accomplish. You may spend much of today in tearing down what does not work and building it up again. Blending in with the group has not always been uppermost in your mind but is becoming workable now. With all of this energy you may find romance and social interactions become greatly important. Tell someone of your love in a romantic and unique way tonight.
