ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- How your work is received will depend a great deal today on the timing of your delivery, and the attitude you display in all interactions.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You mustn't be overly sentimental today; look at things the way they are, not the way you wish they would be. A certain mystery is solved.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You'll be dealing with a long shot today, but that doesn't mean you have to lose anything in the process. You can and will play it safe.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You've been given all you need to address a certain situation in the right way. Take the time to get the lay of the land before you begin.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You understand better than most what is going on today -- or what will be soon. It's time for you to take a more controlling stance, perhaps.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- What you see is not necessarily what you get today -- though you'll certainly be tempted by appearances. You'll soon embrace reality.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You should be able to do all that you have sworn to do today, despite any difficulties that arise. You must establish a steady pace.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- The impossible is not about to stop you today, though you know full well that you cannot magically make it possible. Show off a little.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You must deal with things in a straightforward manner today -- or not at all. Any attempt to avoid key issues will only backfire on you.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- The more you rely on the plan you've made the more you'll achieve today. Improvisation is not favored at this time, for good reason.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- Because of your native sensitivity, you may have trouble facing some situations, but you needn't be ruled by current events. Seek shelter.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You are not going to let yourself be defined by a single activity; you want to be considered well-rounded and capable -- and you will be!

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You are considering taking action today where no action is required, and poking around where you do not belong can invite unnecessary risks.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- A question of "official policy" will be answered today -- though not necessarily to your satisfaction. You'll want to explore further, surely.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Pace yourself today, and be sure to tend to your own basic needs as you check items off your to-do list. You are not a superhuman, after all!

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You must adopt a more accommodating stance today if you're going to get along with those in your immediate circle. Don't be so inflexible!

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- That which was uncertain only yesterday is far more likely to come to pass today -- now that you're truly ready for it. Memories can be made!

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- What you say today will figure prominently in someone's decision-making process. This is not something you can count on forever!

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You can learn a great deal today by watching others struggle with a certain difficult situation. By day's end, you'll be making a viable plan.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- Your own system of checks and balances may not be enough to ensure your success today -- but you still have time. Focus on tomorrow's activities.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You don't want to get yourself locked into a pattern of behavior without knowing what the benefits really are. Investigate thoroughly!

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You have what it takes to meet a certain challenge today, but this doesn't mean you have to do so alone. A friend betters the odds.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You may be tempted to go back to an old way of doing certain things, but this is not advised at this time. Continue along your path.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- Your ability to take seemingly disparate pieces of information and assemble them in a way that makes sense pays off for you and others.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You'll be tempted to cry "foul" more than once today -- but don't be rash. Give things time to settle and ripen before you pass judgment.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- It's a good day for showering the people around you with what they need -- and you can do it without sacrificing anything of value.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You'll be pulled into another's orbit today despite your intentions to the contrary. This is a different way to get what you want.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You may want to give yourself over to the external forces that are pressing in on you, as you have little fight in you at this time.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Thoughts return again and again today to something you did with an old friend that was forgotten long ago. You can reclaim some of that glory!

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Your care for others expands exponentially today, and you'll find yourself in a situation that gives you just as much as you grant them.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- It may be difficult for you to focus on key issues today -- but then, what's the hurry? The problems you must solve will wait until you're ready.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- Your desires come to the fore today, and you're going to have to deal with them without giving away too much personal information.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- A challenge is met in the usual way today -- but the results are anything but usual. Certain others are willing to support you at last.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Now is not the time to hide behind manners and courtesy; you must say what you have to say in the most direct manner possible.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You may claim not to understand the ins and outs of a certain key issue, but you're underestimating yourself. You know what's what!

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- Self-satisfaction isn't what you thought it would be today; you're more in need of some validation from someone else -- and you may have it.
