ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Who you are and what you do are inextricably entwined today -- and in the days to come. This is not always the case; enjoy it while you can!

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You may realize that someone is calling the shots and that any attempts to change this will only increase your own vulnerability.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Events transpire today that force you to look at yourself in a mirror whose image is clear and unflattering. Still, you like what you see!

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You can be reactive or proactive, but not both. It's better at this time to be the cause of things, if you can manage it.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You mustn't quit today until everything is shipshape. You have what it takes to reverse a negative trend -- perhaps all on your own.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Look beneath the surface today to see quite clearly what must be done. Bad news can be used to effect some positive change.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You can protect yourself from most dangers that arise at the workplace, but you must accept that some risks you are going to have to take.
