Feb. 19-25, 2007

   ARIES (March 21-April 20) Cancelled social plans and missed deadlines are now annoying. Someone close may need extra time to resolve conflicting obligations. Remain patient and expect reliable promises by early next week. To some degree, financial responsibilities may also be affected. If so, ask for revised contracts or detailed paperwork. Friday through Sunday highlights compelling dreams and sudden glimpses of the future. New friendships may play a significant role: stay open to new experiences.

   TAURUS (April 21-May 20) Quick romantic attractions are captivating this week but unpredictable. Stay dedicated to long-term relationships and established social ethics. Loved ones will consider all breaches of trust irreversible. The emotional consequences of flirtatious behavior are high. Carefully consider all options and outcomes. After mid-week, many Taureans will be offered a unique business opportunity or new job title. Ask for verified facts: added financial information may soon arrive.

   GEMINI (May 21-June 21) Loved ones will this week openly compete for your social loyalty. After Monday, expect recently silent friends or romantic partners to voice passionate opinions concerning your daily schedule or emotional priorities. Refuse to be drawn into an unnecessary triangle: moodiness and fast social reversals may soon be an ongoing theme. Later this week, financial breakthroughs, new income sources and property decisions are highlighted. Trust your instincts: yesterday's plans are valid.

   CANCER (June 22-July 22) Romantic partners are now privately motivated to move relationships forward or establish permanent home arrangements. Listen to your own inner voice and ask for more time. Serious emotional consequences will require careful thought. Single Cancerians can expect social invitations from several potential lovers. Stay balanced. After Wednesday, pay attention to the private observations of co-workers. Workplace priorities will soon change: remain neutral.

   LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) New employment routines may this week create workable partnerships. Unrealistic expectations or poor instructions will no longer strain team dynamics. Allow all recent disputes or social triangles to fade and expect colleagues or officials to respond positively to honest discussions. Tuesday through Friday, an older friend or trusted relative may press for revised home duties. Don't hesitate to state the obvious: improved agreements will require serious negotiations.

   VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Revised habits are this week needed to ensure continuing trust between loved ones. Pay special attention to daily commitments, time schedules or quickly changed group plans. Close friends and relatives will no longer accept unpredictable social arrangements. Offer cheerful and reliable promises. All is well. After mid-week, many Virgos may encounter a series of last minute work assignments or new duties. If so, remain cautious: private political agendas may soon emerge.

   LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) Private power struggles between family members or hidden social criticisms will now fade. Some Librans, especially those born between 1976 and 1988, will also experience a sudden increase in romantic passion. Harmony in the home and group acceptance are vital. Encourage genuine discussion. After Wednesday, workplace demands will intensify. An older colleague or manager may soon relinquish control of a vital project or assign leadership duties. Remain dedicated.

   SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) Financial restrictions, although unusually stressful, are temporary. Over the next few days, expect a close friend or relative to press for new investments, large purchases or extended credit. All are attainable but delayed. Loved ones may be moody and impatient. Provide encouragement but avoid lengthy business discussions: this is not the right time to challenge the goals or plans of others. After Friday, romantic invitations increase. Stay alert: social triangles may be unavoidable.

   SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) Early this week, a close friend may ask for delicate romantic advice. Sensuality, physical response or long-term attraction may be a central concern. Advocate patience and open communications. In the coming weeks, dedication and common emotional goals between new lovers will provide lasting rewards. Thursday through Sunday, remain open to powerful insights or sudden flashes of wisdom. Areas affected are financial opportunity, job expansion and private workplace politics.

   CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 20) Family budgets and long-term financial plans are this week easily derailed by new purchases. After Monday, property contracts or large investments are promising but may trigger ongoing tensions. Settle all outstanding debt and finalize legal requirements before expanding home responsibilities: you won't be disappointed. Later this week, a friend or close relative may rekindle a past or unproductive romance. Don't get involved: repeated patterns will soon prove draining.

   AQUARIUS (Jan. 21-Feb. 19) Older friends or colleagues may be unusually moody this week. Respond honestly to sudden criticisms or minor social comments. Loved ones and work mates need to understand your emotional limits. No serious consequences are likely, so not to worry. Do, however, firmly defend your opinions and accomplishments. After Thursday, social wisdom and complex insights into strained family dynamics are accented. Your actions will soon be proven accurate: stay open.

   PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) News from distant relatives, forgotten friends or old lovers may now arrive without warning. For many Pisceans, yesterday's unfinished relationships will soon demand completion. Areas affected may be lingering regrets or deep feelings of abandonment. Don't avoid strong emotion. Loved ones need to witness your clarity. Friday through Sunday accent key business and financial decisions. Check legal documents for revised times or dates: new promises may be necessary.

   If your birthday is this week: Private career ventures and home-operated businesses will provide reliable results over the next 11 weeks. Remain dedicated to quickly arriving options: this year is a strong time for revitalizing lost ambitions or rekindling forgotten dreams. After mid-May, older relatives or long-term friends will offer their approval. Stay focused on joint finances or unique sources of funding and expect concrete rewards before Aug. 22. After Sept. 8, group invitations will dramatically increase. A new circle of friends may be highly distracting. If so, enjoy fresh social outlets but refuse to be derailed from ongoing business or employment interests. Much of 2007 will demand bold or independent career decisions and a renewed dedication to long-term friends. Stay actively involved and all will be well.
