The coming week is likely to see the emphasis put on cooperation and communication in most people's affairs, as they will not only be essential to begin new and potentially rewarding collaborations, but also to bring to a close those that are nearing completion and others that are soon to come to fruition and reap desired rewards. In other words, it's not enough this week to have a good idea; it must be shared, talked about, worked and reworked, and perhaps even overhauled before an essential consensus is reached and that good idea is considered fully formed and ready for action.
This is a good week to get in touch with friends and loved ones who lead very different lives, follow very different principles or have very different beliefs -- not because of any disagreement or differences that may exist, but because it is important at this time for both sides to understand each other.
ARIES (March 21-April 4) -- You can expect something big to evolve from even simple, preliminary efforts this week. The key is to know what you're working toward and keeping that in mind. (April 5-April 19) -- Certain long-harbored fears are likely to rise to the surface this week, and your behavior as a result may defy comprehension -- at least to those who don't know you well.
TAURUS (April 20-May 5) -- You can do all that is necessary to get a certain job done, but once you've finished, all you can do is trust that others will carry out the next essential steps. (May 6-May 20) -- "Victory" is something worth thinking about this week, before you are disappointed by the fruits of your own labors. You may have to redefine the concept for yourself.
GEMINI (May 21-June 6) -- You are more in the mood for personal interactions than professional ones, but this week you must engage in the latter before pursuing the former. (June 7-June 20) -- Everything must be done with a mind toward "proportionality" this week; nothing can be ill-fitting right now, or unsuitable for the moment in which it is said or done.
CANCER (June 21-July 7) -- This week favors personal pursuits, but take care that you don't neglect a professional concern that is "held over" from a recent endeavor on the job. (July 8-July 22) -- Your creativity is on the rise at this time, and you'll be able to take full advantage of an unexpected opportunity because you are, indeed, ready for anything!
LEO (July 23-Aug. 7) -- You are in much more of a philosophical mood this week than usual, and much will give you food for thought. Feel free to share opinions with others. (Aug. 8-Aug. 22) -- You feel that it is time to mend fences, but those on the other side are likely still stubbornly clinging to their own point of view that is clearly unsuitable and outdated.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 7) -- What goes around comes around -- but not as you might expect. A whirlwind of activity has you guessing what might come your way. Seek helpful company. (Sept. 8-Sept. 22) -- You may have to wait longer than expected this week for the information that will allow you to move forward with a plan you've been developing for quite a while.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 7) -- Good news comes your way this week, and it will serve as a "green light" that opens the way for you to reach for something that could be a real benefit. (Oct. 8-Oct. 22) -- You are likely to experience something of a turnaround this week -- but whether it is good-to-bad or bad-to-good will be unclear until you've interpreted all data.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 7) -- You can prove that you are a force to be reckoned with this week without taking an aggressive stance. Others are eager to see what you have up your sleeve. (Nov. 8-Nov. 21) -- Signs point to an unusual confluence of emotional currents this week, and you will prove a central figure in keep things from getting completely out of hand.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 7) -- Something you thought would be the proverbial "walk in the park" proves much more complicated -- and perhaps even dangerous. Prepare yourself. (Dec. 8-Dec. 21) -- The support you seek will be available to you this week after you make very clear both your motives and methods. You don't want to have to start all over again!
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 6) -- You have good reason to worry about something you've been sensing in the distance for quite some time. Preventive measures are available to you this week. (Jan. 7-Jan. 19) -- You may be surprised by the opposition you receive from someone who is usually on your side. Don't be defensive; think instead about why this might be happening.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 3) -- You mustn't let minor irritants keep you from pursuing your goals this week. Others are dealing with problems you have avoided, so pick up the pace if you can. (Feb. 4-Feb. 18) -- You are likely to find yourself pursuing an unusual new interest this week, and what happens as a result is likely to tell you a great deal about your potential right now.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 5) -- Group efforts are surely favored this week, but you may have to score an individual victory before you can contribute fully to what others have going on. (March 6-March 20) -- You should be able to meet a challenge head-on this week, and as you rise to the occasion, you'll be showing others what is possible, even under adverse conditions.
