ARIES (March 21-April 19). If today were a movie, it would be of the Alfred Hitchcock variety -- a little odd, a little creepy and very suspenseful. You'll be thoroughly entertained though.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Exceptions to the rule are bound to come up, so be flexible. Let yourself relax, and enjoy what others bring to your life. Family members get testy. With a little diplomacy and humor, you'll come out on top.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Have you really learned your lessons from the past? Are you fit to receive what you're asking for? These questions and more will be answered. The signs are there for you to read.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Crawling back into bed and hiding from the world can be a great way to spend a day. Unfortunately, that is not an option now. A couple of well-chosen songs will inspire you to get out and ease on down the road.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). As the sun moves and the light changes during the day, so will your mood. Your fans love you in every mood, even, and perhaps especially, in the salty moods. What you've got to accomplish is far more than you can do alone. Get help.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Your association with a particular person will lead you down a certain path. So it's important to recognize and give credibility to your intuition about someone before you wind up exactly where you didn't want to go.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Usually a modest person, you find it embarrassing to have to sell yourself. The trouble is, you may not be doing business with people who are as intelligent and sensitive as you are, so tooting your own horn may be necessary.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Someone dear made a mistake in the past, and you forgave him. But the real question is, will this person make the same mistake in the future? Get real about your opinion so you can plan ahead.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). It's so tempting to stick your nose into other people's affairs, especially because you're almost sure you can help. In fact, your influence will make a difference, so dive in!
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You tend to underestimate the power of feeling like you belong. The drive to be connected to and accepted by others could cause you to agree to something you normally wouldn't see yourself doing. It's an adventure!
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Many people will be competing for the same result, and only a small number will be able to attain it. Such odds don't scare you though. Gandhi said, "There would be nothing to frighten you if you refused to be afraid."
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You express yourself beautifully and are able to make things happen quickly and to your specifications. So carry your idea clear through to the finish line. Eliminate delays by trusting yourself.
TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (May 4). You live your passion this year. Career developments this month are the reason you needed to let go of fear and reach for knowledge. Make exciting travel plans in July -- the getaway magnetizes financial success. You'll be romanced in June. Ceremonies make December memorable. Love signs are Aquarius and Sagittarius. Your lucky numbers are: 9, 40, 38, 42 and 25.
