ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You know what's really going on, even though no one is really willing to talk about it openly. That is about to change, however.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Take a look back at the way something used to be done and you'll realize just how far you've come -- and in little time, too. Don't stop now!
