ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You'll view the events of the day from your own perspective, surely, but someone's viewpoint will prove valid in a moment of stress.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You may not make headway today as quickly as you had hoped, but progress is progress -- no matter how fast you're moving. Don't become downcast!

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- The changes you detect in the wind needn't be feared -- but then, you don't have to agree with all of them either. Consider them one by one.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Follow your own previous model today and you'll surely produce something of value. Now may not be the time to start something from scratch.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You are trying to accomplish something that others will appreciate -- but you mustn't get lost in the big picture. Tend to the details right now.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You mustn't misinterpret someone's instructions as "orders." Today there is certainly room for you to do some things your way.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- Time is of the essence today; you don't want to find that you've wasted it by trying to organize it too closely. You must get started!

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- Something is likely to happen today that knocks you down a peg or two -- at least in your own mind. This reality check is important.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You'll want to share your work with someone who has been immersed in a similar project in the past. You can receive invaluable guidance.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You don't always have to do things exactly as you've been instructed today -- but it's a good place to start. Improvisation is helpful.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You may think that you have all the answers today -- but think again! One question in particular proves a very stubborn knot to untie.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You'll feel the gravitational pull today from someone whose charisma is virtually irresistible. This opens up a new door or two.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You don't have far to go today to reach a destination that is far more important to you than you had originally supposed. Keep up the pace.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Don't be tempted to stop today before you've completed what you set out to do. You can, however, slow down to get your bearings now and then.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You may find it hard to arrange a satisfactory collaboration with a new partner, but trial and error reveals what path you should take.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Give yourself a pat on the back today after you complete the tasks you had set yourself. They weren't easy, but your will prevailed.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Though you may be talking to the same familiar people today, something seems different. You may be testing out a new attitude.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You may be able to achieve a certain something by going at it entirely the "wrong" way -- at least according to some. Your ways are your own.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You shouldn't have to pander to anyone today to get what you want. Go about your business in a straightforward manner; respect the process.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- Seek and ye shall find -- if not today, then soon. You may seem to be further from where you want to be, but you needn't falter in any way.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- What you do today is likely to be more exploratory than final -- though you'll surely want to adopt certain techniques for future use.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You are likely to receive news of someone who was an important part of your past -- but things aren't likely to be the same again.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You may wish for a return to a "better time" -- but the truth is that the past cannot be repeated, and your immediate future looks bright.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You receive a shock to the system perhaps, but you won't find yourself down and out as a result. Indeed, energy and enthusiasm may well increase.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Your curiosity about what presents itself today will make you anxious -- especially when you try to balance possibilities with routine needs.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- It's a good day to pay more attention to others than to yourself or your own affairs. Help when and where you can, and, by all means, listen!

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You've been ready to break free of certain restraints for a while, but only today have you had the perfect set of circumstances. Do it -- now!

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You may be stomping on someone's toes today when you try to do something without asking. Back off if you can, and beg permission.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- This is the time you've been waiting for as far as that one key decision is concerned. A confluence of factors proves more than satisfactory.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- The sudden takes your breath away today, but that which has been around you for quite a while impresses you in a far more lasting manner.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- A social gathering provides you with fewer options than you had hoped. You may choose to go it alone after this for the foreseeable future.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You encounter a series of pitfalls today, but you're not likely to succumb to them unless your head isn't in the game. Concentrate.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- Many have told you that practice makes perfect, surely -- but today you may find that you get something right the very first time!

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You are in danger of clouding an important issue today by speaking out of turn. This is a good time to listen rather than speak.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You can go back in time today -- in a manner of speaking, anyway -- as something from the past proves more important than ever before.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- Giving someone a little of their own medicine may be satisfying to you in some respect, but it's not the way to make headway, is it?
