ARIES (March 21-April 19). Spontaneity brings back your zing. When you get stuck, the first thing that comes to mind is the right thing to say. If single, hit the town. Cheesy pick-up lines have been known to work, especially when you're delivering.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). An idea that seems impractical at first is presented. Upon further review, you find it to be merely unconventional. With a little flexibility on your part, you will find that creativity can be profitable.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You're so organized! Give yourself a nice pat on the back and keep it up! There is even time to stop and ponder the mysteries of life -- like where do all the missing socks go?
CANCER (June 22-July 22). You are the muse, even for those you might not expect needed one. Your guidance is by example and takes very little effort. Be yourself, and when others imitate you, try to be flattered rather than annoyed.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You're being considered for a promotion of some kind. Remember, people answer the question of what you'd be like on a specific level by assessing what you're like in your current level.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Not only do you have what it takes, you have more than it takes. What to do with the extra? Teach someone else. Tonight, creative vibes help you hone in on a vision of your future.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Give your opinion. You are genuinely respected. Friends and family consider you the "dependable one." The loyalties you have created are invaluable, as you will come to find out next week.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Sheryl Crow is singing to you ... "A change will do you good." Now take those words to heart. A friend offers you an opportunity to test the unknown. You will be surprised by what you enjoy when you give it a chance.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Put yourself in a position to get maximum exposure to the many varied things that go on in your company. This may require lowering yourself to assistant or mailroom status temporarily, but it's worth it!
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You're a lover, not a fighter. Alas, your possessive nature can make you seem a bit combative in social settings. Remember, your partner is with you for a reason. No need to be jealous.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). It's a crucial day in your personal development. A relationship is ripe to move forward, but you must be in the right frame of mind to take the opportunity and go for it. Give yourself several pep talks today.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). There are clowns to the left of you, jokers to the right. It's fascinating to study people who are unaffected by those around them. It may not work in the real world, but it's a blast for after hours.
TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (April 28). A new love cycle starts with your birthday this year! You'll feel better understood than ever, and because of this, you have the confidence to change a living situation that has been substandard for too long. Fantastic financial results come in the early fall, probably from applying what you learn this spring. Love signs are Sagittarius and Aquarius. Your lucky numbers are: 8, 30, 45, 2 and 20.
