ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You're tired of doing the same old things for the same old rewards. You can increase your take by adding a little spice to your usual methods.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You may wonder if there's something wrong with you for doing things the way you do, but today your entire process is likely to be validated.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You're eager to make a dream come true today. Others can give you more room to maneuver, but only if you ask for it. Say what you want!

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Someone in charge may express a desire for you to do something in a different way from now on, but that won't work for you. Discuss!

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- It's time for you to be paid fairly for the work you've been doing for quite some time. You're not going to be overlooked any longer!

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- The more direct and straightforward you can be when asking for what you think you deserve, the more someone in charge will listen.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You can lead someone precisely where he or she wants or needs to go, but then you'll have to ask yourself where you belong, as well.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You're fitting in quite well to a process that was completely foreign to you not long ago. Those working with you acknowledge your efforts.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- Whatever you have learned from a certain someone -- and only you know who that is -- you must be willing to put into action today.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You may not know how to do things that others value, but you know how to do things that they don't know how to do, and that's valuable to you!

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You're attempting to synchronize your efforts with those of the group to which you belong, but now may not be the time. Try going solo.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- How you say and do things today could matter more than what you say and do. Style matters -- and you have that in spades!

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Someone knows just where to strike today to get the greatest possible reaction out of you. If you're prepared, however, you needn't buckle.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- This is a good day to start something over that hasn't been progressing the way you had hoped. You've learned a thing or two since it began.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- It's important for you to learn as much as you can about circumstances and situations you're going to face today. Don't try to progress blindly.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You may not feel as collaborative as you had hoped today, but what you do on your own can certainly be built upon with others later on.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Hard work is in store -- after some careful thinking. You can't do what you want to do without making a detailed plan -- and sticking to it.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You're eager for a day that seems normal from morning to night, but that's not in the stars for you during this particular phase. Be ready!

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You are likely to face more today than you had planned on, but that doesn't mean you won't be able to deal with it all in a productive manner.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- Someone else is likely to leave for parts unknown, and this may put you in something of a funk; he or she will be back in touch very soon!

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- The sooner you make a start today, the more you'll get done -- and the more you get done now, the more time you'll have to yourself later.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You may be wondering at the sheer scope of things right now, but a friend helps you regain a more healthy perspective. All makes sense soon!

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You must be ready when a new opportunity knocks, and that means tying up loose ends right now. They may be hard to spot, but they're there.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- A friend or loved one is concerned for your well-being; perhaps you've been doing or saying things that are confusing. Be reassuring.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You'll be asked a few questions today that will require some time to figure out. Don't be tempted to speak before you are truly ready.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You can explore more than your own potential today, but also the potential of one who is eager to be guided by you. You're in this together now.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You encounter an unusual problem toward midday that tends to reverse any trends established during morning hours. This isn't a bad thing.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Success and failure are both very real possibilities today, though by "hanging tough" you can increase your odds of success considerably.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- The impact of what you do today will be felt tomorrow, almost assuredly. You can do little to change course right now, but that's OK!

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- Positive attitudes and forward motion let others see you for what you really are, and they will acknowledge your considerable contributions.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You may receive congratulations for something that you don't fully understand. Later in the day, more information comes to you.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- What you have to say can affect others quite dramatically today, especially if you say it the way you think it. Be direct, by all means.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Are you feeling like an expert today? If not, you may want to let someone else take the wheel -- but if so, you can surely win the day!

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You may have something to tell a loved one that you fear will not be taken well. This is a necessary risk right now, so let it out!

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You are qualified to do what you have been asked to do; there is no doubt. Your current attitude, however, may stand in your way.
