For the next few weeks you're focused on increasing your earning power. A money making scheme occurs to you, but it might cost too much to implement. You're willing to work harder and find ways to cut corners. You may dream of wealth. Who are your allies? You'll need to know in order to make progress. Intimacy and sharing deepens.

ARIES (March 21 - April 20)

Try something new or dream about the freedom to follow your most fascinating dreams. You have a head start on an important goal; some conflicts may emerge. Get in touch with people who matter in your life. It looks like it's time to figure out things on the domestic front. If someone wants to take charge, let them. Also, behind-the-scenes efforts are rewarding. Inventive and inspirational ideas bring change. Acknowledge your artistic side.

TAURUS (April 21 - May 21)

Something that you usually find difficult is annoying until you take some time to consider your best approach. Avoid a verbal power struggle. Soon you'll feel comfortable working behind the scenes for a few weeks. Household improvements and long-term career projects occupy your thoughts. Some opportunity to boost personal income you'll have to consider. Cooperative endeavors have every chance for success. Join in and lend a hand. Emphasis on your hopes and wishes.

GEMINI (May 22 - June 21)

Avoid being manipulated by a romantic partner. Catch up correspondence and on e-mails. Your technical expertise comes in handy when someone needs help with a computer. Work projects begun now can lend to positive changes and financial gains. Trust friends to steer you in the right direction. People look to you to get the "fun" ball rolling. Some folks are difficult and the need to compromise cannot be ignored. Save your money.

CANCER (June 22 - July 22)

Pay attention to details. Map out a financial game plan and possibly a plan to renovate your home. Maybe a cloudy vision leads to distrust, but you'll enjoy a brief escape from reality for a while. The news in general might not be too good. It appears to be a moody, anxious time and that makes everything seem more personal than it is. Chill out! Maybe it's time to take a trip and get away. Agreements are hard to reach, so compromise and cooperation is needed.

LEO (July 23 - Aug 22)

Someone close to you offers useful advise and encouragement, along with some heartfelt affection. A distant business contact is particularly dogmatic and bossy, so find a way to deal with this disruptive energy. Friends share ideas and you are key in getting plans off the ground. Business interest may keep you busy. You're willing to work hard now, so show off what you've got! Share ideas with a partner about how to improve the budget, refinance, save for the future, etc. Avoid allowing people to drain your energy.

VIRGO (Aug 23 - Sept 23)

Breakdowns suddenly cut you loose from people and patterns that have outlived their usefulness. Commitment is hard as you fall for someone new or change your feelings about a longtime partner. You need to make concrete decisions. If you doubt your own motivations and others surrender, Virgo, accept your partnership fate. Try to develop extrovert qualities. Let inspiration be your guide.

LIBRA (Sept 24 - Oct 23)

Pleasurable popularity buzzes your world with excitement, fun, and romance! Impulsive abandon turns into slammed-door restriction, power struggles, negative responses, and blocking allies. Talk through stress to restore a lost harmony to troubled relationships as well as your own sense of balance. Expect a conflict between home and work interests to materialize. Look to the future and embrace a new idea. Enjoy competition. Your feelings are growing stronger.

SCORPIO (Oct 24 - Nov 22)

If a colleague has an unwelcome crush on you, it's best to just speak up. Don't try to cut corners when a failure to pay attention to details can derail a project. A memory reminds you how to accomplish a goal. If trust is undermined or someone isn't fair, you might have to renegotiate peace or take a stand for what you want. New experiences come that are related to distant places. Don't waste time hoping you can change others.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov 23 - Dec 21)

Resistance is overcome by efficiency. You'll feel love is threatened or negatively intensified. Let the past go, and if it's about money, let love win. You might feel like taking a vacation or first goofing off for a while. There are good ideas floating around out there, many of them inspirational. Listen, learn, create and let young people benefit from your experience. One friend may be under a lot of stress. Watch self-indulgence.

CAPRICORN (Dec 22 - Jan 20)

Power struggles. You can strategize through this because in the professional sector, nothing stops you as brainstorming or a boss helps you apply your new visions successfully. But don't ignore the message! Take care of business and take time to enjoy yourself. New ideas also will help expedite work or improve health or well being. A cooperative arrangement could be profitable, and maybe even a few benefits to letting others dictate the terms. Contact with far off places or persons is under good aspects.

AQUARIUS (Jan 21 - Feb 19)

It takes work and a push through power struggles to create lasting achievement. It's okay to be up front about what you want, but some background information can help you out now. Don't promise more than you can deliver or expect more than others can give. It's best to put an emphasis on just getting along for now. If on a trip, an early departure will spare your traffic jams and travel delays later. Make a commitment to change a health situation. Put the brakes on spending.
