Aries (March 21-April 19): Although most people deem you to be honest, you might sense a challenge to your honor. Partner with the right people and avoid sensitive subjects by concentrating on constructive activities.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Finish whatever you start. Outside circumstances may draw your attention away from designated tasks. Focus on the positive, resist the temptation to complain, and do things in a timely manner for best results.
Gemini (May 21-June 20): Your ability to think on your feet and handle multiple tasks at once can put you in the driver's seat. Problems that may have baffled you in the past should seem to be no trouble at all now.
Cancer (June 21-July 22): Your closest companion or partner may be engaged in an intricate moneymaking proposition. Loved ones may need your support and input as much as you need them, although they may say little or nothing.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): You can be proud of your accomplishments and your latest efforts. However, it might be wise to hold off on important presentations or new projects until next week. Organize and add structure to your plans.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Taking charge of your finances could be a major priority, but don't get bogged down by unimportant details. Your companions or a partner may be interested in participating in a plan that seems unrealistic.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You may yearn to achieve something that requires rolled-up sleeves and attention to detail. Work hard and ignore a partner's lack of consistency. Get out and mingle when time allows.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Your persuasive powers are likely enhanced. However, a loved one is not at your beck and call. A smile can make the difference between creating a positive impression and receiving a lukewarm reception.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Your whimsical way with words can amuse others, so entertain them with imaginative tales. Don't be fooled by appearances or get carried away with something that might be a wild goose chase.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You may spend more time daydreaming than getting things accomplished unless you focus. If you don't pay attention, you could cause a misunderstanding with someone near and dear.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Rely on conventional wisdom. Accentuate the positive but look for loopholes in a new plan or proposal. Someone with more experience might be able to steer you in a better direction.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Use any extra energy to demonstrate that you're generous and sincere about your ideals. Share your beliefs with someone in your circle of friends. Don't spend hard-earned money on a whim.
if September 23 is your birthday: Sail ahead on smooth waters as the next four weeks unfold. Your cheerful outlook and optimism make you a magnet for pleasant experiences throughout October. You might dream of a better and more satisfying lifestyle in mid-november. You may also dream of a romantic encounter or visualize a better job, but whatever catches your fancy might not be worth pursuing. Wait until late December to put your plans into motion or make crucial decisions. Not only can your judgment be better than usual, but you may receive opportunities for advancement. Late January can bring a chance to live out a romantic fantasy or unleash your creativity. In February, your perceptiveness is at a peak, so that's a good time to make progress with your career or finances.
