ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Now is not the time to abandon your efforts, even though a trend is against you. Stay focused; this will turn around soon.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You can turn a simple vision into reality before the day is out, but don't make the mistake of thinking you can do anything at all.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You cannot successfully be all things to all people today; you must choose where best to focus your energies. Doing nothing is not an option.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Contentment today will result from a concerted effort to bring people together under a common banner. You're good at conflict resolution.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- That which is impossible for some may simply be difficult for you -- but it's something that you can actually do before this long day is out.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- That which seems one way is actually very likely to be very different from the way it appears. Your productivity increases as a result of this.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- Now is the time for you to reach out to someone and express your concern about an issue that's been intentionally overlooked for too long.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- The harmony you're after can only be yours today if you're willing to abandon a certain way of thinking that promotes conflict.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- Success today may depend almost entirely on your ability to cooperate with another who, in the past, has been anything but an ally.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Communication may break down for a time today as a result of technical snafus, but you can circumvent them and keep information flowing.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You may receive news from someone under you today that affects your entire decision-making process. Implement an alternative plan.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- A brief encounter during the first part of the day stays with you long after it has ended, giving you a reason to rethink what is on your plate.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Time and money are likely to be spent in doses that are perhaps too large for the situation at hand. You make a key decision just in time.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You are almost certain to be caught in the middle of the action today without knowing what role you should play. You must follow another's lead.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- It may be time for you to reach out to another for guidance about a situation you've not kept abreast of -- but you're not too far behind.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- It's likely to be your job at some point today to let others know where they're doing things correctly, and where they need to improve.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Your manner may be somewhat disarming today, which can work to your advantage. Don't overdo it, however, or it's likely to backfire on you.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You receive several suggestions today that seem counterintuitive and even counterproductive. One above all, however, merits thought.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- A new idea waits to be put into motion, and you've got some catching up to do before its time comes. Someone else can call the shots today.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You may find yourself filling the blanks today, but is that really the best use of your time or talent? Honest reflection is needed.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- What you hear through the grapevine today is likely to catch your attention far more than most rumors. There's an element of truth to it.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Something you are called upon to do today may be above your pay grade, but that isn't likely to prevent you from having a go.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- Improvements to yourself, your surroundings and the work you are doing can be quite remarkable, memorable and effective today.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- Others may be waiting for you to cast the deciding vote about something that has split your team in two. Some discussion is surely in order.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Someone you know is ready to embark on a new adventure of sorts today, and you're also ready to provide the support you've promised.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You've been careful in the past to anticipate the kinds of things that might happen today -- but something will surely take you by surprise.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Things may seem somewhat out of alignment today, but if you keep yourself from overreacting, you can make necessary adjustments quickly.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Watching someone else do what they do so very well can inspire you today -- but where do you want to focus your energies when you're ready?

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- It may be time for a last-ditch effort today, and depending on how well it goes, you should be ready to make a decision others have waited for.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You may be complicating matters far too much at this time. Pay attention to how a friend or loved one manages when things seem rather busy.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- It's not just one thing but many things you have to fix today, but you're right in thinking that one in particular requires special attention.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- If you have a little more money than you thought you might, why not splurge a little? Only you know when you can take that kind of financial risk.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You feel the eyes of those around you hovering about you, waiting for you to err in some way -- but that's not likely to happen. Not today!

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You know what must be done to increase your productivity at this time, but is today really the best day to do it? It's risky.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You're eager to see what happens when you reunite with an old friend who, in many ways, was a good partner too -- but don't expect miracles.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- It may fall to you today to do what others cannot or will not do. Ask around and find out why before you jump into something all the way.
