Sept. 25-Oct. 1

   ARIES (March 21-April 20) A family member or long-term friend may now wish to explore a controversial change of lifestyles. Travel plans, educational programs or cultural appreciation may all be accented. Provide facts and offer your own unique perspective: detailed home or social changes will require patient determination. After mid-week, romantic discussions intensify. Key issues involve broken promises or past commitments. Take time for reflection: private information may be revealed.

   TAURUS (April 21-May 20) Someone close may this week need to evaluate social and romantic commitments. Past disappointments or unexpected emotional triangles now have a powerful influence on key relationships. Avoid private discussions, if possible, and expect others to resolve their own misgivings. Confidence will soon be restored. Later this week, a recently cancelled business or educational project will demand new attention. Stay sharp: financial details will prove vital.

   GEMINI (May 21-June 21) Job discussions will this week inspire new business creativity and career interest. Some Geminis, especially those born early in June, will soon adopt revised financial goals and new workplace partnerships. Independent sources of income are highly favored over the next nine weeks: take time to thoroughly research all proposals and options. After Friday, pay special attention to the social needs of a relative or friend. Encouragement will help end a cycle of isolation: be expressive.

   CANCER (June 22-July 22) Past friends or colleagues may soon reveal detailed workplace information. Private business methods, hidden decisions or complex legal requirements may be at issue. Carefully verify all sources. After Wednesday, mistaken comments or inaccurate estimations may be quickly problematic: trust only proven facts or valid documents. Later this week, a close relative may reveal unexpected career changes or revised investments. Study all details: accuracy is key.

   LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Older relatives may this week rely heavily on your ability to inspire group agreement. Social harmony will not be easily achieved over the next few days but it is vital to the success of long-term commitments or family relations. Encourage shared activities, bold decisions and common goals: words alone will not influence public opinion. After Thursday, a powerful wave of intuition and romantic insight arrives. New love affairs may need to be postponed: remain cautious.

   VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Subtle disagreements between trusted friends will now fade. Miscommunications or wrongful social information may be an underlying theme. Some Virgos may now need to return to old documents and past records to affect meaningful change in key relationships. Don't neglect important dates, times or schedules. Thursday through Saturday, avoid large purchases or new expenses: loved ones may now expect a shared commitment to long-term home security.

   LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) Tender moments of affection may soon inspire greater levels of intimacy and trust. Over the next few days, expect subtle suggestions and rare romantic overtures from loved ones. Complex discussions will lead to rekindled sensuality: plan meaningful encounters, if possible, and express sincere opinions or needs. Later this week, a complex business project may be restructured to include new leadership roles. If so, respond with optimism: co-workers will follow your example.

   SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) New debts, long-term investments or proposed purchases should now be carefully scrutinized. Before mid-October, financial revisions or added payments are potentially draining. Set a slow pace and exercise caution: this is not the right time to take on increased money responsibilities, expenses or family duties. After Friday, a delicate romantic disagreement may quickly fade. Areas affected are living arrangements, home decisions or family traditions: expect meaningful change.

   SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) Over the next few days, group invitations will prove rewarding. Close friends may now initiate highly creative activities, controversial hobbies or new forms of entertainment. Explore all intriguing options. Many Sagittarians will soon benefit from expanded social awareness and intense emotional challenges. Later this week, workplace errors require careful diplomacy. Private agendas and hidden ambitions are accented: if possible, avoid disputes between co-workers.

   CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 20) Love affairs and private encounters may be briefly postponed over the next few days. At present, potential lovers and long-term friends may feel vulnerable or emotionally exposed. Remain patient and wait for obvious signals of advancement. In the coming weeks, new emotional commitments will work strongly in your favor. After Wednesday, pay special attention to the social needs of a younger friend or relative. Delicate advice concerning obvious loyalties may be necessary.

   AQUARIUS (Jan. 21-Feb. 19) Listen to the subtle observations of close friends or relatives this week. Recent business proposals or workplace revisions, although positive, may need to be steadily verified. Unreliable information, revised policies or strained funding may soon be a source of confusion. Avoid acting as workplace leader or mediator: progress will be slow. Later this week, a new romance may quickly escalate. If so, trust your initial instincts: fast promises will be genuine and deeply felt.

   PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) Romantic partners may this week ask for increased access to private family decisions. Social expectations and a need for group acceptance will be strongly felt over the next few days. Spend extra time with loved ones and plan unique encounters: your response will be closely scrutinized. After Thursday, dreams and sudden hunches will be vivid. Pay attention to changes affecting long-term relationships. Friends and lovers may soon demand serious commitments: stay focused.

   If your birthday is this week: Unique issues of social identity, group involvement or short-term romantic planning are accented over the next few weeks. An intensive phase of isolation or doubt now needs to fade. Before mid-October, key friendships will steadily expand. Remain open and expect new ideals, roles or emotional expectations to define intimate relationships for the coming eight to nine months. Throughout the winter months, workplace relations may also require diplomacy. Unexpected promotions or rare disagreements may be temporarily bothersome. If so, watch for a controversial proposal after mid-November to resolve a long-term dispute. Colleagues will remain distrustful before early mid-December. Stay focused on daily tasks and trusted business methods.
