ARIES (March 21-April 19) ★★

Tonight: Out and about.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) ***
Expenses might bother you, and with good reason. Knowing when to say "no" could have long-term implications. You work way too hard to have problems. Lighten up and relax with those around you.
Tonight: Get into a favorite sport or pastime.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) ******
You are the cat's meow no matter how you look at it. In fact, you could enjoy yourself even more if you relax and talk about what is on your mind. Express your imagination.

*Tonight. As you like.*
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) **
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) **★**
Your intuitive sense comes forward. You will like what you see and what is going on. You might want to evaluate a personal situation with a bit more optimism than you have in the recent past. Looosen up.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ★★★★
Take a gander at all the possibilities that surround your life. You don't need to agree with others; you simply want to further a pet project. Stop trying to convince everyone that you are right. You don't need to.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) *****

Tonight: Enjoy those around you.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.) **★**
