Horoscopes
Aries
March 21 - April 19
This week brings intellectual disagreements or differences of opinion and viewpoints with those in your inner circle. You may have to speak your mind in a way that challenges or unnerves someone else. However, your mind is very active and sharp, and your reasoning power is good, so this is a good time to do mental work. Listen sensitively to not only what others are saying but also what they are feeling. This is an excellent time to discuss your feelings and clear the air of any grievances you may be holding on to from the past.
Taurus
April 20 - May 20
This week you may be getting what you really want and moving toward achieving the things which are important to you, but it involve surrendering something or eliminating something from your life. Perhaps an attitude, a situation, or an attachment that has been impeding you is now released. Feel free to concentrate on the things that are most important to you now. Major, long-term changes can be successfully begun now - a lifestyle change or a regimen of self-improvement, for instance.
Gemini
May 21 - June 20
This week you find it stressful to balance needs for freedom and independence with needs for love and intimate companionship. You really behave quite oddly or aloof right now, which will put others off considerably, thus affording you the space you need. You are also attracted to the exotic, offbeat, unusual, or bizarre at this time. People or things which might offend your senses at other times now arouse your appreciation and interest. This will not be a boring, if you can help it, but it is apt to be a tense time.
Cancer
June 21 - July 22
You are eager to discuss your thoughts and plans with others at this time, and you may have a very fruitful brainstorming session, a spirited debate, or a very active meeting with others in which things really get accomplished. You are verbally assertive and can present your own plan or idea quite convincingly. Good time to make new friends, meet new people. You may not understand all the workings of a new technology, but you can figure out how to use it for your own purpose. Make sure you cover all the bases.
Leo
July 23 - August 22
You will desire harmony, beauty, and comfortable surroundings this week, and avoid unpleasantness as much as possible. You're inclined to use charm, gentle coaxing, and persuasion rather than more direct, forceful methods to get what you want. At this time, pleasure and affection are more important to you than work, and you may be rather lazy, but cheerfully so. You've gotten behind and need to get a better grasp of things. You usually work hard but lately you've been very lax in matters of importance.
Virgo
August 23 - September 22
Your week is full of self-discipline, training, perseverance through a dry or slow period, and working quietly or in meager circumstances are themes in this time period. You have the ability and stamina to concentrate, to work carefully and thoroughly, and to accomplish something modest, yet of real practical value and substance now. This is an excellent time to eliminate whatever is unnecessary and outworn in your life, even a long-held attitude or belief which keeps you from going after what you really want in life.
Libra
September 23 - October 23
Your interactions with others can be confusing and discouraging. It seems that whatever you try to do goes nowhere or gets lost in a haze of misunderstanding. Taking time off, working quietly, or doing something primarily for the benefit of others is favored at this time. You're likely to feel that you cannot make your desires or influence felt, and that things go awry when you try to assert yourself or make an impact. Retreating from confrontation and allowing matters to take their own course may well be the best path now.
Scorpio
October 24 - November 21
Be aware that your words and your actions will affect others greatly. You can probably talk your way out it, but everybody is watching to see the outcome. Stay calm and your confidence level will rise. Everybody wants security, but their concepts may be different than yours. Your job is to find some common ground and then to start from there. Seek the help of those who want to be productive instead of destructive. Avoid miscommunications of any sort. You need to get focused on the realities that faces you.
Sagittarius
November 22 - December 21
This week, prepare for disappointments with friends, lovers, or people in general. You are hypersensitive and need much affection, tenderness, and love, but are not actively asking for it. Others' callousness, clumsiness, or heartlessness affect you more than usual, and you are rather unrealistic in your hopes and expectations of them. You may also be overly adaptable and accommodating in your relationships at this time, enabling others to continue in their bad habits or to take advantage of your unconditional support.
Capricorn
December 22 - January 19
Recent events have put you in a position of power. You'll feel moved into proclaiming an alliance between yourself and your peers. Your message will come across in a way that encourages others want to join in. You know just which emotions to draw out of others and when to do it. You could combine valid points of view to provide a dynamic effort. Supporters will rally for your cause. Look upward and forward. Doubts should not be considered an option. You'll come out ahead no matter where you start from.
Aquarius
January 20 - February 18
Unusual ventures, harebrained schemes, unexpected and serendipitous events which demand considerable adjustment on your part are headed your way. Whatever agenda you had planned is apt to be spontaneously disregarded for what may well be a better alternative. However, you are prone to be more than a little reckless now, so be certain you are not jeopardizing those areas of your life which are your support structure and which in fact enable you to experiment and do some of the wilder things you want to do.
Pisces
February 19 - March 20
This is a time to attend to details, take care of practical business, and make your life more stable and secure. It would be beneficial to consult advisers on investments and long-range plans. Eliminating waste and inefficiency is important to you now. There is much activity; you move rapidly from one thing to another and a hectic, somewhat stressful pace is likely. Many errands, phone calls, letters which require a response, and other "busywork" is on the agenda. A minor but rather tense confrontation is likely.

Those susceptible to psychic influence may, by a tug of supernatural inclination coming from somewhere in the room, become caught up in the excitement. Some will be healed completely. For others, their faith in its effectiveness may prove temporary, however, and symptoms may return anywhere from a few hours to a few days later For locals in this neighborhood, the ‘miracle’ healings will be a subject of awed conversation on every street corner.]
