ARIES (March 21-April 4) -- The counsel you give to others can do you some good as well this week -- if you are able to listen to yourself. You mustn't think you have all the answers. (April 5-April 19) -- Someone has been in your sights for quite some time, and this is a very good week in which to explore a subject that has been only hinted at in previous discussion.

TAURUS (April 20-May 5) -- You are confident that you know best this week, and that may be so -- but you are advised to take a back seat for a while to let others explore their potential. (May 6-May 20) -- A loved one reaches out to you this week, and you're likely to be thanked for something you did quite some time ago. This is a good reminder: Better late than never!

GEMINI (May 21-June 6) -- Your efficiency at the workplace is directly related to how things are going on the home front. The more progress you make there, the more profit can result. (June 7-June 20) -- You mustn't think that you are unbeatable this week, for such complacency will surely work against you. Take the time to learn more about your No. 1 rival.

CANCER (June 21-July 7) -- You may be concerned about resources this week -- and rightly so. Do what you can to conserve, even as you collect more of what you currently need. (July 8-July 22) -- Doing things your way certainly sounds good, but is it really going to bring you the results you seek? The truth is that an equal collaboration can pay off best.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 7) -- You may have to revisit an old conflict this week in order to prepare yourself to ward off a new threat. Someone who has been there before offers guidance. (Aug. 8-Aug. 22) -- You have a certain habit that can pay off handsomely this week -- if you indulge in it at just the right times. One potential error scares you more than any other.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 7) -- You may be tempted to double down on that which was clearly stated last week -- but that doesn't mean it's right. Find and correct your errors! (Sept. 8-Sept. 22) -- Now is not the time for you to throw caution to the wind, especially where your finances are concerned. You'll need all the cash reserves available!

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct 7) -- You may feel as though someone is working hard to keep you from a goal you both share, but that may be only an illusion. The difficulty is likely self-made. (Oct. 8-Oct. 22) -- Even trivial matters will relate to a central issue that colors all your affairs this week. You can't escape that which you've done so much to bring to pass!

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 7) -- A look back into the recent past scares you into a renewed commitment. You must make sure you don't repeat the mistakes that got you where you are now. (Nov. 8-Nov. 21) -- You know you're being watched, but you may not know just how to react. The best course is to focus on your work and ignore, for now, the responses you get from others.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 7) -- You'll be facing quite an emotional time this week, and before you get started down the road, you know you must identify new allies. (Dec. 8-Dec. 21) -- You've not been giving someone the attention he or she truly deserves, but this week you can reverse that pattern and do all that you must -- and more. Prioritize.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 6) -- Your approach to the week's difficulties will attract a good deal of attention from those who seem to be in the dark. Your way can work well for many. (Jan. 7-Jan. 19) -- You'll find yourself playing a brand-new role this week, and it's not one in which you would normally cast yourself, surely. The surprises come quickly and are numerous.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 3) -- Focus on the central issue this week; peripheral concerns will likely take care of themselves. You mustn't be distracted by another's worries. (Feb. 4-Feb. 18) -- You may find it impossible to progress as planned this week until you rid yourself of a burden you didn't even know you were carrying. A friend gives timely assistance.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 5) -- You must keep your complaints to a minimum this week, and those you do share must be filed in just the right way if they are to have any effect at all. (March 6-March 20) -- A faster pace serves you and others well today and gives you the chance to move beyond a self-imposed, outdated limit. You can reach further than ever before!

ARIES (March 21-April 4) -- Do you really have your own best interests at heart this week, or are you trying to fulfill someone's expectations that are not true to you? (April 5-April 19) -- You may have to deal with more than one emergency this week, but, fortunately, they are not likely to be upon you at the same time. You should have time to regroup.

TAURUS (April 20-May 5) -- Patience this week can keep you from making the kind of mistake that you may never get over. Progress is made in easy stages; don't ask too much of yourself. (May 6-May 20) -- Issues of status are unavoidable this week. You can evade conflict by refusing to engage with anyone else in a contest of ego. You know what really matters, after all.

GEMINI (May 21-June 6) -- Choices come to you in unusual ways this week. When you begin to see just what is waiting for you around the next corner, decisions must be made more quickly. (June 7-June 20) -- You may be feeling too far removed from a certain situation to have any positive impact on what is done -- or why -- but this is not the case. Let your voice be heard!

CANCER (June 21-July 7) -- You can afford to do a little more for yourself this week than you have in the recent past -- but take care you don't come off as being overindulgent. (July 8-July 22) -- What others think of you and say about you will matter greatly to you this week, as you try to secure a meaningful place for yourself in a new work environment.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 7) -- You'll know who is following you this week and why. You can influence his or her decisions without endangering your own progress at all. Make a move. (Aug. 8-Aug. 22) -- You may have to put aside work you enjoy so you can complete a job that you don't -- but this is nothing new. You know how to prioritize in this way and get work done.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 7) -- You may be approaching a crossroads this week, and as things come into sharper focus, you'll certainly want to have a good friend by your side. (Sept. 8-Sept. 22) -- The view ahead promises much, but you're not going to get something for nothing. This week you'll want to begin preparing for a big push in a profitable direction.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 7) -- You are facing some change in either your personal life or your professional affairs, but nothing is likely to be concrete this week. Wait for signs. (Oct. 8-Oct. 22) -- You are almost certainly standing in your own way this week if you insist on looking at things through such a personal lens. A businesslike approach is most definitely advised.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 7) -- The smaller the details, the more important they will prove to be; anything that you can see and differentiate must be given full attention this week. (Nov. 8-Nov. 21) -- You're going to need more than moral support this week; money figures prominently, and what you don't have, you're going to have to acquire -- and quickly, too. Avoid hesitation.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 7) -- You cannot do all that is required of you this week if you continue to carry certain personal baggage with you wherever you go. Jettison it now! (Dec. 8-Dec. 21) -- Someone's instructions go over your head early in the week, making it imperative that you follow your instincts and do what you know in your heart to be correct.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 6) -- Your timetable may be more difficult to work this week than you had expected. On more than one occasion you'll have the opportunity to make adjustments. (Jan. 7-Jan. 19) -- You'll be moving from one task to the next, from one interaction to the next, with tremendous ease this week -- and others will surely want to know how you do it!

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 3) -- Avoid overspending, no matter what you do. Look closely at your finances, and make a plan you can live with without sacrificing too much of what you enjoy. (Feb. 4-Feb. 18) -- You may be juggling several emotional issues this week even while you tend to a major project that demands an objective, realistic and self-critical approach. Get it done!

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 5) -- Take care that you don't let yourself get carried away with the enthusiasm that comes from taking a few big steps forward. You're not there yet! (March 6-March 20) -- You can avoid interruptions this week simply by taking your work to a place where you are able to focus intently on the things that must be done. Discipline is key.

ARIES (March 21-April 4) -- You begin the week in no mood for certain challenges -- but soon you'll realize that you must face one or two before moving on to more profitable pursuits. (April 5-April 19) -- You'll find yourself moving slowly away from that which has brought you much pleasure in the past. This is surely a sign of change that you'll want to explore further.

TAURUS (April 20-May 5) -- What begins in fun early in the week becomes something you'd much rather avoid in the future if at all possible. You know the key to a problem. (May 6-May 20) -- Now is no time for you to make demands of others; this week, you'll want to focus solely upon your own needs and desires. Are you able to do what is necessary?

GEMINI (May 21-June 6) -- You're waiting for someone to "do right by you" this week -- but that's not the best use of your time, surely. Rethink your purpose, and adjust your approach. (June 7-June 20) -- Make an early start this week, and you'll have more time to yourself later on -- provided you haven't overlooked something that must be addressed right now or not at all.

CANCER (June 21-July 7) -- You and a longtime collaborator may be considering a parting of ways, but this week you may discover, just in time, that you still share a common goal. (July 8-July 22) -- The pull of another has you fighting to stay where you are this week. Is it that you want things to stay the same, or are you afraid of where something new will take you?

LEO (July 23-Aug. 7) -- A game of show and tell results in a surprise development that is, in your view, very much a double-edged sword. Advantages and risks are almost inseparable. (Aug. 8-Aug. 22) -- You may have a hard time shaking a feeling of distress this week. Do what you can to determine its cause; you may find that your feelings are, after all, well-founded.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 7) -- You may think you're looking at things the right way this week, when in fact you couldn't be more wrong. It's time to believe what someone is telling you regarding your perspective! (Sept. 8-Sept. 22) -- Your ability to pick up the pieces after someone has made a mess of things will serve you well this week -- but you must also know when to say enough is enough! You've set boundaries for a reason.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 7) -- Internal rhythms are shifting slightly, and the week's events reflect your resulting uncertainty. Following in another's footsteps would be wise. (Oct. 8-Oct. 22) -- You may feel as though what you are striving for is no longer as valuable as you had once thought -- at least in the eyes of others. Does this warrant a change, however?

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 7) -- You mustn't let sour grapes keep you from doing what you will enjoy this week. Don't allow emotions to creep in where they do not belong. (Sept. 8-Sept. 22) -- You may have to work harder than usual this week to maintain contact with someone who is proving essential to the success of a pet project. Not everyone will be helpful to you.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 7) -- You can afford to face certain situations from a more pragmatic point of view. Don't think that everyone will respond favorably to your unique approach. (Dec. 8-Dec. 21) -- Your reactions to the week's events will speak as loudly as any words, and you'll want to be sure that you are at all times sending out the right messages.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 6) -- You may find yourself grappling with expectations all week long -- but is it another's or your own that are really throwing a wrench in the works? (Jan. 7-Jan. 19) -- Comfort is the aim this week, but you're going to have to work hard to win it. Indeed, what you go through will surely earn you the right for some rest!

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 3) -- You may uncover a previously unforeseen opportunity this week. To take advantage of it, however, will require you to make certain dramatic life changes. (Feb. 4-Feb. 18) -- One or two questions that have lingered for quite some time can be answered this week, but only if you are willing to drift out of your comfort zone for a while.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 5) -- You may have to answer to an authority higher than any other to whom you are responsible. This week, you'll want to tell the truth at all times. (March 6-March 20) -- A search for something that's missing reveals more than you had bargained for this week. Someone by your side is able to fill in the gaps and provide up-to-date information.
