ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You can explore options with more freedom than usual, and the likelihood of danger is minimized considerably at this time.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You must not try to shirk any responsibilities. Do what you can to complete assignments on time -- and, if possible, under budget.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You've been asking for many favors lately, and today it's time for you to try to get something done without anyone lending any extra help.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Now is the time for you to promote your ideas more aggressively. You may not know quite where to start until a friend offers a suggestion.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- It's a good day to assess your own progress -- though you must remember that there are those who have been at it much longer than you.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You'll be able to lend another a hand in a way that is both unexpected and necessary. Teamwork pays off handsomely at this time.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You can prove to others that you have what it takes to go the distance. It may be awhile before you are given more responsibility.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You may have to work a little harder than expected today to make up for what someone else isn't doing.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You've been doing excellent work of late, and there are those who have been paying attention. Rewards begin to roll in very soon.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Put yourself in a new position or environment today and you should be able to be far more productive than you have been in recent days.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You can take advantage of social media to put yourself in a much more favorable position. Competition is likely to heat up.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- What you learn on television or online may be misleading. You'll want to get your news directly from the source if you can.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Information comes to you piecemeal today, but you can put it all together like a puzzle and come out with the answers you really need.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You may be feeling uninspired and unenthusiastic at this time, but once you get started you'll build momentum quickly.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Pick up the pace today and see if you can't do more than expected in less time than you are given. Peak efficiency can be reached.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Now is not the time to share your feelings in an unrestrained or uncontrolled manner. Make sure you mind your manners and use courtesy.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- It's a good day for spreading your wings and experimenting with a new brand of creative expression. Someone close to you offers support.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- The more prepared you are, the more likely you will be able to adjust to changing circumstances as they evolve. Don't get stuck in the mud!

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You may go through the beginnings of an emotional freak-out today -- but a friend lends you his or her ear and sets you straight.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- It is likely to take more time to prepare to do something than to actually do it. Make sure you have scheduled things efficiently.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You may wish you were in touch with one who figured prominently in your daily affairs only a short while ago. Why not reach out?

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- Someone is trying to involve you in a situation that cannot turn out all that well for you if you continue along the same course.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You may not know what another means when he or she gives you certain advice. You have a feeling something is amiss.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You may overhear something that has you wondering if things will ever be the same. You may simply be overreacting, of course.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Messages you receive today may not give you the comfort you seek. One or two pieces of information have you considering an unusual option.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Strain in a certain relationship can be lessened today -- but you'll have to be the first to suggest a solution to a growing problem.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- A subtle change yields tremendous gains before the day is out, and you may now feel as though you can do almost anything.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You may not understand why others are so keen on something that is quite clearly not for you, but such understanding may not be required.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You are after something that may actually be unavailable to you -- not just now, but always. It's time to reorder your priorities, perhaps.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- Your unique perspective has you making a few decisions that others could never make -- but the only person you have to answer to is yourself.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- Timing isn't everything today, but it is perhaps the single most important aspect of a current assignment. Keep your eye on the clock.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- It will be up to you to delve into the most sensitive issues today -- but you can do so with respect for those who are most involved.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Your attraction to someone outside of your normal circle of friends and loved ones is based on something you do not entirely understand.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You may be surprised to learn how far you will go today to secure your own safety. You are capable of more than you think!

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- A reunion of sorts is not to be avoided; you have much to share, and much to do once you realize that you're in this together.
