ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Once may well prove to be enough today, and you cannot afford more than that -- financially or emotionally. Play it safe in the evening.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You'll have the chance to do for a friend today the very thing you hope he or she will do for you in turn. You'll set a fine example.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You may require more support today than you had originally anticipated. This will not be a problem if you alert your helpers in a timely manner.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- The time has come for you to drop what you're doing and help someone in need. This can be a fun project for both of you if you let it be.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- A brief objection to someone's plans could throw a wrench into the works. All you have to do is explain clearly and move along at a good pace.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- What you do today will speak volumes about you -- and let a rival know that he or she has a lot of work to do in order to keep up with you.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- Your observation of natural phenomena today will allow you to reflect on something that has given you trouble for some time. You make a discovery.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You'll want to be sure that you're doing things in precisely the right ways today. Check the instructions -- and double-check them if need be!

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You are pleased with the prospects you are facing today, but that's not going to be enough. You must be willing to get to work -- now!

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- A neat and tidy approach is no problem for you, but you don't want this to become a compulsion. Do just what is required, no more and no less.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You may have to make more than one concession to please someone in charge. This is not something you'll have to make a habit of, however.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- The shock value of what you do quite by accident today inspires you to repeat yourself on another occasion -- but don't get carried away!

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Being color-coordinated is perhaps overrated, and yet you may naturally find yourself working with an integrated palette that suits you well!

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You mustn't let others know that you have grown tired of something that they have long called "yours," but you can make changes today, surely.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- What you do today must be in line with someone's expectations. You don't have to satisfy them in every detail, but you must do your best.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Someone is looking over your work and preparing to respond to your recent request. If necessary, you can repeat yourself and do even better.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- A wide variety will satisfy you today, so you mustn't limit yourself to just one or two of anything. You may have to guard against overindulgence.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You are in danger of getting lost in the details today before you even grasp the big picture. A friend gives advice -- but do you need it?

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You may want to assume a spectator's stance today rather than that of a participant. This is almost sure to suit a partner very well.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You may have to play it by ear today, as the experts upon whom you usually rely are nowhere to be found. This will be a confidence booster!

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You're far more interested in encouraging growth than in impeding progress -- and you know just how to do that in the time provided.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Now is no time to be thinking about how things look, but rather about how to get the job done in the time allotted. You must be efficient!

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- What you seek may be near at hand today but still hidden from view. Take a look around! You may have to get your hands dirty, too.

PISCES (Feb. 18-March 20) -- You're after quality, not quantity -- but if you happen to have too much of a good thing when all is said and done, who are you to complain?

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- From where you are today, you'll see things the way they are meant to be seen -- even if you don't know it at the time. There's much to remember.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- The day is likely to be much longer for you than for others today. That suits your mood and your willingness to work longer hours than usual.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You can shower others with all that they need without seeming to put in any extra effort. You know well what is really required, however.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- What you provide for a friend you'll want to provide for your family members -- and that's as it should be. You don't want to play favorites!

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- As the clock ticks and the sun courses across the sky, you may be left wondering what you're to do with your day. Time can be a true ally!

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You'll find yourself waiting for someone who doesn't understand that you're on a schedule. Be prepared -- you may have to move on alone.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You will know what someone is up to even before he or she is aware, but you must keep your opinions about the endeavor to yourself -- for now.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- Put yourself in another's shoes and walk around for a while. You may well realize that you've not seen things from quite the right perspective.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- There's no point in trying to shout over those who are, by nature, louder than you -- literally and figuratively. Take a quiet approach.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Focus may prove difficult today, if only because there is more than one thing to capture your attention. You must prioritize.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You're likely to move forward in a most unusual way today, but what difference does that make? Progress is progress, after all!

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You'll recognize in yourself something that you've criticized another for, but you may not know what to do about it just yet.
