Say what's on your mind in October, and open up communication. More secrets are revealed in December and January. In February, you've reached a breakthrough on the other side of the breakdown. In March, the work that needs to be done should be obvious. Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 5. Your work, your money and an authority figure are all playing together to your advantage, but you need to do a few little things. First, treat the authority figures in your life with respect. Second, do what they want before they ask. Third, offer your experience. This could be your lucky day Taurus (April 20-May 20):Today is a 6. Your life's about to get easier, but you could still be running into hassles, especially with a domestic project. You want it one way and a roommate wants it another. What you need is an objective third party to act as a moderator and maybe even a mediator. Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 6. Continue being practical, even if you don't feel like it. You'd rather be playing. You don't want to settle down and delve into difficult subjects, like financial matters. You'd rather get someone else to do it, and that's not such a bad idea. Hire a Virgo, if at all possible. Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 5. You're in a productive phase, but you don't have to do it yourself. Your partner would like to help, possibly by ordering you around. Listen to the advice, but keep your own counsel. You're the one who has to make the final choice. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 6. Keep your nose to the grindstone again today. That's not your favorite position, but one you have to assume every once in a while. In this case, it looks like the work you're doing is making you a better person. You're learning how to use your talents to the fullest. Virge (Aug. 23-Sep. 22): Today is a 6. You might be getting into a completely new romance. That's always a nice way to look at it, even if you've been in this relationship for years. If you see every day as brand new, with new possibilities and new surprises in store, it keeps your love affair from degenerating into dult routine. Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) Today is a 6. You can anticipate a bit of conflict, but it'll work out. You're practicing skills you need to get past difficult situations. You go to places where they're likely to occur. You're in luck. There will be plenty of opportunities to show how compassionate you can be. Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 6. There's a thicket of controversy going on again, but that's OK. You're the perfect moderator, because you're fair and honest. You could be called on to exercise those attributes. No problem. Help your friends see the big picture. Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 6. It looks like you're trying to push an older person in the direction you think he or she should go. If you want to win at this game, be respectful and treat this person like royalty. It's not impossible for you to do this. Scorpios have been steering royalty around for centuries. Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20); Today is a 7. Your friends will never get from here to there without you. You can't see the obstacles they're up against. You can. Besides providing insights, you can bring good luck. Yes, you're actually a good luck charm for some people you know and admire. Your being there will make a big difference in how things turn out. Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19); Today is a 10. Use a trick that worked before to line things up the way you want them. You might end up with an increase in pay through your own ingenuity. By tackling something another person finds dismaying, you could receive a bonus. Offer your services in an area where they're obviously needed. Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 6. You're working on something fascinating, and it's just about time to see if it really will fly. If you can hold off until tomorrow, your chances improve. Right now, check everything twice and run through all possible malfunctions. The more you can find now, the fewer of them will plague you tomorrow.
