LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Your stamina allows you to do more than most others today -- but even you will have to reckon with fatigue if you try to do too much too fast.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- A combination of influences proves ineffective on you today, and you should be able to continue along your current course quite productively.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- Follow the rules today -- or don't -- but know that each course will yield different results. You don't want the decision to be made for you!
