LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You may be asked to pledge support for something that you do not wholly believe in -- and you must say so or risk being labeled a hypocrite!

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- Others are likely to judge you for something you did a long time ago. This is unfair, but you mustn't be tempted by thoughts of payback.

SCORPIO (Oct 23-Nov. 21) -- A surprising realization puts you in a healthier state of mind today. A friend seeks shelter, and you can offer it. Think about tomorrow.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You may be tempted to bend or even break the rules just a bit today in order to shake others out of the doldrums. This has far-reaching effects.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You may not have a great deal of time to prepare for what is coming your way very quickly today. Take a leaf out of someone's book.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Certainty may be in short supply today, but that doesn't mean you can't progress according to plan. Even guesswork can pay off today.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- The more cautious you are, the more likely you will be to be error-free today -- but there are occasions on which a little daring can pay off.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You've laid the groundwork very well, and now it's time to get a project moving. One thing still stands in your way, and you must address it.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- The more detailed you are in your preparations today, the more successful you will be at addressing complications if and when they arise.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- Someone may accuse you of being unrealistic, but the truth is that you are considering far more very real likelihoods than usual.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- It's essential that you promote an idea with confidence today -- before others lose interest. You must strike while the iron is hot.
