ARIES (March 21-April 19)

HHHH If you have ever wanted to head in a new direction or strive for a certain result, the time is now. Take the plunge, and you are likely to witness an immediate success. Tonight: Go where the crowds can be found.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

HHHH One-on-one relating could become a problem. Expect an opening to appear between you and a significant person in your life. Remember that others often look to you as a role model. Tonight: Burn the candle at both ends.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

HHHH You might have the best intentions to keep the peace while having an important talk with a partner; however, the issue has to do with the other party’s intentions, not yours. Tonight: How about a movie?

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)
