ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- It's a good time to practice what you preach, as others will certainly be watching you -- if not outright, then surreptitiously.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- When it comes to decision-making, you're the one others will go to today, as you're likely to be both confident and quick. A good combination!

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Your focus may shift from one thing to the next throughout the day, but you can still get things done by timing your efforts with great care.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You may be showing signs of fatigue, and you fear you're approaching burnout, but a chance encounter is likely to revive you and your spirits.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Others will be gravitating toward you all day long, and though you won't know precisely why, you'll have to deal with the sheer numbers.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You can't guarantee the efficiency of a certain task simply by throwing more money or manpower at it. You must think this problem through.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You may find yourself playing "mix and match" with people, places and things today. This "game" has some very serious overtones.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- It's important that you clean up after yourself as you work today, for you're not likely to have time to do it once all is said and done.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You may be forced to deal with something today that you've actively tried to avoid -- but your work ethic will surely hold you in good stead.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Things may not pan out exactly as you had expected today, but you can take a leaf out of a Cancer friend's book and remain flexible.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You may display an unusual behavioral trait today, but only those who are stuck in the past will be bothered by this. It's time to look forward.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Your focus must be on the things you have left to do, rather than any new tasks that are connected to a developing project. Tie up loose ends.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- How you complete a task today will say more about you, certainly, than how you begin it. Indeed, you may suffer from more than one slow start.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You're free to do and say what you want today, but you would be wise to consider your audience and the timing involved in letting loose now.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- It's a good idea to let your admiration for someone else show a little today -- and it's time to see where this relationship might lead you.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You've seen the signs pointing to a seemingly foregone conclusion, and that's what you should work toward. Now is no time to tempt fate.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- A certain situation reveals itself to be favorable or unfavorable solely based upon your reaction to it. This is a new and potent power.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You may want to shake things up a bit today and change the order of events without telling anyone ahead of time. See what happens.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- No one around you may see what's coming the same way you do, and you alone may realize that this is quite an urgent situation.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You may realize that you no longer want to teach others how to do what you should be doing yourself, but how do you go about making that change?

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- It's time to get a certain project finished so you can move on to the next -- but some others are not cooperating. Put your foot down.
