Aries (March 21-April 19)

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

••••• Friends come through for you. Unexpected news opens up conversations and presents yet a another point of view. Tonight: Forget that tomorrow is Monday.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

•••• Though you might have a surprise or two down the path, you could be quite pleased with what has occurred by you not insisting on having a dominant role. Tonight: Go with the exotic suggestion.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

••• If you have something you feel you must do, roll with it. You could be open to some unusual news that tosses your grounding off for a while. Remember, not everyone stays in the same mental framework all of the time. Tonight: Easy works.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

••••• Your playfulness emerges, full of fun and ideas. Try another style; do something differently. By letting go and being spontaneous, others get to see the inner you. Tonight: Act like it is Friday night.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

••••• People find you to be unpredictable and zany. Just be sure a very important person in your life can tolerate those ups and downs. You could find someone to be somewhat staid. Remember, you value that quality in him or her. Tonight: Return e-mail and calls.
