Born today, you may seem rather soft-spoken and aloof, but this belies an internal fire that burns continuously and emits a heat that others cannot help but feel when they interact with you, even indirectly. You are quite passionate about everything you do, and you make no decisions that are not carefully considered and deeply felt. You are certain to follow your instincts when it comes to choosing a career. You're not the kind to follow in another's footsteps, at least not intentionally, nor are you one to heed the advice of those who are older and wiser. You want to do things on your own, so that your successes and failures are yours alone.
You're likely to enjoy one great love in your life, though events may transpire in such a way that you are unaware of this until you are well into adulthood. Indeed, you may actually "rediscover" each other after several other satisfactory relationships. But maturity will ultimately make of you a better companion and lover.

WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 22
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You'll benefit from playing a game with a loved one that allows you to explore a certain side of each other you haven't yet seen.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Don't make the mistake of thinking that you can cover your tracks completely. Someone will be able to follow you wherever you go!
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Be cautious when exploring unfamiliar territory. Until you understand the lay of the land, you'll want to move slowly and deliberately.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- What you thought was a sure thing may turn out to be something of a crapshoot, and you can't trust your system to see you through!
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You may find yourself in charge of others just at the point when you would have preferred to be on your own. Make the best of it!
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Appearances can be deceiving -- and what you see is probably nothing like what lies just beneath the surface.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You know very well why you are doing certain things in certain ways, even though you may try to deny it when asked. Face the music!
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You're pursuing a goal that isn't likely to offer you much when all is said and done. Why not consider an option introduced by a friend?
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You must be willing to take care of yourself now or accept the fact that you will not be in peak condition when you need to be.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- The powers that be may not allow you to progress in an organic fashion, which is causing problems with your natural instincts and rhythms.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You can surely hit the mark, but it may take more than one try. Fortunately, you don't have to get it right the first time!
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You know where you belong, but you also know why you're not currently there. Though unavoidable, this situation is not permanent.
