HOROSCOPE

Starcast

Mercury and the sun recently bid farewell to levelheaded Libra before blazing into Scorpio’s sensual domain. Scorps are leaping tall buildings at a single bound.

Aries (March 19-April 18) Mercury dallies with the sun in your eighth house — the most volatile and passionate of them all. Expect a positive impact to your money, personal life and intuitive ability.

Taurus (April l9-May 19) Mercury and the sun beam directly on your one-on-one house. Roughly translated, that means when you’re good, you’re very, very good and when you’re bad ... you’re hot! If your love life isn’t heating up, better check your DOB.

Gemini (May 20-June 19) Truth be told, your life is soap opera fodder. Expect a behind-the-scenes work issue to resurface. Scorpio alliances are tricky. Don’t dare to dis to an underling. Sabotage is not a pretty sight. Turn up your nose and you’re toast.

Cancer (June 20-July 21) A Scorpio presence in your fun house is feral and ferocious. You’re a walk on the wild side waiting to happen. Write a want ad. Do a love spell. Go out, see and be seen, share exciting confidences with fun friends.

Leo (July 22-Aug. 21) Choices, choices! What shall it be: Creative home financing? An interior decoration project? A pleasant, productive heart-to-heart with a family “authority figure”? Oh, quiet my heart! — all of them are possible.

Virgo (Aug. 22-Sept. 21) You Virgos have strong emotions but often have trouble communicating them. Now, with Mercury and the sun lighting up your chat room, you’re ready for the big world. It’s not as though you’re not already the el primo researcher of the cosmos.

Libra (Sept. 22-Oct. 21) The year of the Libra has barely begun and now here comes the sun and Mercury to bring sizzling insight to open a window of decision-making opportunity. You won’t want to deny yourself anything.

Scorpio (Oct. 22-Nov. 20) It’s all happening at your house, Scorp. The sun and Mercury whirl and twirl. If you feel that the whole world is watching, you’re right. It is. Time to set up a personal agenda for the remainder of the year.

Sagittarius (Nov. 21-Dec. 20) As Saturn twirls fatefully in your sign, the ghost of Saj Past rattles its bones. Your subconscious is haunted, so look for dream clues. Talk about transformation!

Capricorn (Dec. 21-Jan. 19) If wishes were horses, beggars would ride. Whoa! Who’s a beggar? Surely not you. Capricorns virtually invented the whole “big picture” thing. But wait a minute, Ms./Mr. Ambition, there’s a lot of scattered activity in your wish house. Time to think, “focus” as only you can.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 17) Earth to Aquari! Can you hear us down here? The sun is issuing a wake-up call in your fame house. You “in-your-head” Water Bearers are too altruistic for your own good. Try a little enlightened self-interest.

Pisces (Feb. 18-March 18) Lucky sunbeams highlight both travel and teaching. Look for a guru in an unexpected place, but don’t be surprised to find yourself fulfilling that role for someone else. You’re ready for something different, really different. Get with it.
