ARIES (March 21-April 4) -- Trying to do everything at once ensures that nothing will get done this week. Try to break things down to their most basic components. (April 5-April 19) -- You don't want to conceal the information that everyone needs this week; rather, share it openly and you'll promote well-being along a broad front.

TAURUS (April 20-May 5) -- The plans you've made may actually make things more difficult for you this week -- but you don't see any other way to get certain things done. (May 6-May 20) -- You may find yourself dealing with those who are unusually shallow -- or they are simply trying to deceive you. Either way, you'll want to go elsewhere.

GEMINI (May 21-June 6) -- You may not be able to trust the person who has been charged with leading you and others throughout the week. A difficult decision must be made. (June 7-June 20) -- You may feel threatened by someone who doesn't agree with you about the basics. There's no need to allow conflict to arise; a compromise can be struck.

CANCER (June 21-July 7) -- A difference of opinion can actually be a good thing this week, as parties work to make room for both points of view. Set an example! (July 8-July 22) -- You may not understand what a rival is up to, but you know well enough to stay out of his or her way this week -- unless you are eager for a fight you cannot win.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 7) -- You may have trouble absorbing the information that comes to you throughout the week, but later you'll know what to use. (Aug. 8-Aug. 22) -- You find yourself on a path you never expected to travel. A friend offers a word of warning, but you may not appreciate his or her unique perspective -- yet.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 7) -- Something you've believed for some time proves to be nothing but a sham, but tell the truth: Have you really been hurt? (Sept. 8-Sept. 22) -- Good and bad combine in unusual ways throughout this complicated week. You end up in good standing, however, because of your ability to take the high road.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 7) -- You've got to make plans ahead of time if you're going to take advantage of your strengths. Don't trust in chance!

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 7) -- You must commit to a certain endeavor all the way this week, and not make the mistake of doing a little bit here and a little bit there. (Nov. 8-Nov. 21) -- You cannot keep yourself from feeling what you will feel, but you can surely control your subsequent behavior. Don't forget: You are the boss!

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 7) -- Now is no time to shirk your responsibilities. Many are counting on you, and you don't want to see yourself in anything but the best light. (Dec. 8-Dec. 21) -- Issues of quality control are prevalent in all you do; you may be the only person you know who is committed to doing the best possible job at all times.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 6) -- You stumble upon a new way of doing something this week, and it's likely to catch on quickly. Progress can be made across the board. (Jan. 7-Jan. 19) -- You cannot always keep your emotions in check, of course, but you can keep them from getting the better of you. Balance is the key.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 3) -- Your ability to work well with almost anyone is on full display -- until you recognize that someone is not likely to be cooperative. (Feb. 4-Feb. 18) -- Your week is likely built around a single objective; make sure that you have given yourself enough time to do all that needs to be done!

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 5) -- Someone may misinterpret your words or actions this week, raising tensions at home or at the workplace. Take the time to explain yourself. (March 6-March 20) -- You needn't resent someone else for simply doing what comes naturally. Perhaps you are not doing all that should be done in this situation.

ARIES (March 21-April 4) -- You may have misjudged the people you will be working with this week; the project is more difficult than intended -- but you can get it done. (April 5-April 19) -- You're going to have to dabble in politics this week in order to see one of your favorite issues come to the fore. You friends won't abandon you.

TAURUS (April 20-May 5) -- You'll receive some expert advice this week, but whether you can take it depends on circumstances well beyond your control. (May 6-May 20) -- You don't want to do anything this week that works against someone to whom you have pledged loyalty. Assess your plans before putting them in motion.

GEMINI (May 21-June 6) -- You can only do what you are capable of doing this week -- and realizing that simple truth will sustain you through a difficult situation. (June 7-June 20) -- Someone will try to get in touch with you early in the week, but you may want to keep that to yourself, as not everyone will interpret this correctly.

CANCER (June 21-July 7) -- You may be facing something you thought was unimaginable, but now it's real enough and urging you forward. You can do what needs to be done. (July 8-July 22) -- Take a moment to assess your situation -- not once, not twice, but at regular intervals during the week. You must be at the top of your game.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 7) -- You may be facing a problem this week that stems from bandwidth; you have the knowhow, but perhaps not the resources or the manpower. (Aug. 8-Aug. 22) -- The stars shine brightly on you this week as you attempt something you've long been planning. Your confidence and willingness to evolve serve you well.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 7) -- You are seeking support for a project that is just getting off the ground. What comes your way defies expectation, but you can work with it. (Sept. 8-Sept. 22) -- Putting yourself in another's shoes early in the week shapes your progress for days to come -- and allows you to fulfill the expectations of others.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 7) -- You mustn't charge into a new situation without knowing what to expect once you are fully immersed. This requires some visualization. (Oct. 8-Oct. 22) -- The potential for overdoing what should be simple and straightforward is rather great this week; follow the lead of one whose approach you admire.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 7) -- You have more on the line this week than you originally thought, but you can come through with flying colors. Don't hesitate to ask for help. (Nov. 8-Nov. 21) -- You are ready to deal with routine problems, but not with those that seem to arise out of the blue. Expect the unexpected, and you'll react to it effectively.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 7) -- You are working with some very good ideas, but you may be unaware of the challenges you face as you move forward. Heed warnings. (Dec. 8-Dec. 21) -- Danger that is brought into your inner circle unintentionally is more serious than anything you might expect to encounter. Be ready to adjust accordingly.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 6) -- Others are waiting on you to get things started this week, but you may be afraid of acting in a manner that could put everyone behind the eight-ball. (Jan. 7-Jan. 19) -- A situation arises that requires you to be at your tactful best. You cannot afford to rub anyone the wrong way just now -- especially those in charge.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 3) -- You have others rallying around a common banner at this time, and you can get the best out of the most. This can prove a winning week! (Feb. 4-Feb. 18) -- Your motives may come under fire this week from those who do not understand, as you do, that intentions are fluid and flexible. Don't get trapped!

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 5) -- What you don't understand can work against you this week; you must strive to see everything under a broad umbrella of comprehension. (March 6-March 20) -- You may think that the "how" is less important than the "what" this week -- but you are mistaken. Indeed, you must mind your manners like never before!

ARIES (March 21-April 4) -- You can do something quite important this week, but not many will notice unless you point it out -- but is that something you really want to do? (April 5-April 19) -- How you speak to others this week is far more important than what you have to say. You must mind your manners and try to empower those around you.

TAURUS (April 20-May 5) -- Both solo and group efforts pay off handsomely this week -- but it's the teamwork that means most to you in the end. You can enjoy more of it. (May 6-May 20) -- How others view you is less important this week than how you view yourself and what you are willing to do to promote your agenda. A friend comes calling.

GEMINI (May 21-June 6) -- You may not understand the importance of something that is only just beginning, but soon you'll realize that you must join the fun! (June 7-June 20) -- That which is hazy as the week opens is likely to become perfectly clear as the days progress -- especially as you journey into unknown territory. Remain alert!

CANCER (June 21-July 7) -- There may be some room to improvise this week. You can make something much better than it was before -- for you and all concerned. (July 8-July 22) -- You'll find yourself waiting longer than expected for the information you need to put the finishing touches on a new plan and set it in motion.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 7) -- You and a partner may have to remain far from each other this week as you focus on the details of a complex project. Trust in technology! (Aug. 8-Aug. 22) -- Style and substance combine this week into something that others find both admirable and practical. Keep it up and doors will be opening for you in no time.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 7) -- You're going to have to dig for details during the first few days of the week. Later on, with all the info at your fingertips, you can get results. (Sept. 8-Sept. 22) -- Now is the time for you to assert yourself, perhaps as never before. Say and do the right things, and your reputation will be secure.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 7) -- The trials you face this week will be both expected and unexpected -- but those that are expected will help you with all the others. (Oct. 8-Oct. 22) -- You may have to make unusual demands of a friend or loved one this week -- but you can promise to return the favor very soon.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 7) -- Someone who has been on the periphery of late is likely to gravitate toward the center of activity this week, and your affairs will be affected. (Nov. 8-Nov. 21) -- You may have a lot of information to analyze before you can begin to use it to your advantage. You will want to be sure you are thinking straight!

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 7) -- A combination of how and why allows you to see things the way they really are -- provided you are willing to look deeper than most. (Dec. 8-Dec. 21) -- You are capable of doing some remarkable things this week, but you may not want to attract that kind of attention. Play it cool.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 6) -- You can't take back anything you say or do early in the week, but you can surely ease tensions by reversing the overall effects. (Jan. 7-Jan. 19) -- Self-protection becomes an issue as the week progresses; you mustn't put yourself or anyone else in a vulnerable position by overlooking the obvious.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 3) -- You can join a strong, well-tuned team this week and enjoy almost immediate success. Your learning curve is very short right now! (Feb. 4-Feb. 18) -- You may require something additional from someone who has already given you quite a lot recently. You can negotiate more than a fair trade.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 5) -- You are perhaps thinking of yourself far more highly than others right now -- but that's only because they don't know what you have up your sleeve. (March 6-March 20) -- Someone very close to you is willing to give something up so that you can have more. Be generous in your gratitude!
