Born today, you have the makings of a star, and yet you often prefer to take on the role of a supporting player -- even, at times, a bit part -- in order to ensure universal excellence rather than your own individual success and recognition. You are confident that by doing what is right you will also stand out, and your trust in this strategy has paid off again and again. Collaboration is far more important to you than anything you can do on your own -- or almost anything -- and you are never more excited than when you have identified someone new to work with in a manner that allows you both to grow, evolve and excel. You value a good idea no matter where it may come from, and you encourage those around you to speak up, step forward, take part and be counted.

You may at times embrace some unpopular attitudes or beliefs, but you are nothing if not true to yourself -- and you demand that others are true to themselves as well. You would rather argue with someone who is genuine than agree with someone who is only pretending -- and praise from someone who doesn't mean it is completely worthless to you.

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 1
ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Stress rises today as your expectations become more specific. It may be that you're trying to reach a goal that is not yet attainable.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Avoid anything that requires you to be in one place for any length of time. You're in the mood to go here and there willy-nilly.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You can get more mileage out of laughing today than out of any other approach -- including one that has worked well for you in the past.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You won't have to make any sort of sacrifice today in order to come to another's aid, and you must keep it that way if you choose to help others.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You may be in a rather dangerous mood today -- or so some others may claim. In truth, you're merely showing more of your true colors.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- What you need, someone else can surely use as well -- and vice versa. Don't try to make distant arrangements; get up close and personal.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- A fragmented notion of something once very important to you will allow you to get reacquainted with certain ideas you thought were outdated.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You may find yourself doing some otherwise routine things in very unusual ways today. This suggests that you're ready for a change.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- A reunion of sorts reminds you of what is more important to you than the things in which you've been recently immersed. Branch out!
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- The more you fear making certain mistakes, the more likely you will be to make them. Unburden yourself of any notions of being perfect.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- Being aware of all that goes on around you is absolutely necessary, and may also prove more difficult than anticipated. Don't get lazy!
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- Someone may ask for your opinions on certain topics today, but it may not be time for you to share just yet. Find a way to decline politely.
