Today's full moon eclipse in Aquarius brings radical vision to the planetary party. What's your unique talent? What do you see in your future? These visions are less about anticipating that we'll run out of paper cups at the party, or a doomsday prophecy, but that we each have some unique solution or idea to generously offer the world right now.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Keep in touch with the people who are important to you. Not because you should, but because they are a part of who you are. It's good for the soul to let others in on your adventure as it unfolds.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Ice cream for breakfast — why not? Rock 'n' roll dance party instead of a cigarette break? Yes! Routine ritual can get anyone into a rut. It's definitely time to change it up. When you do, you become the fun one again.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Yes, what occurs in the next 24 hours is mundane — but in the best possible way. Average moments are works of art. The best part is that you can appreciate them as such. It's a beautiful, normal day.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). It's remarkable how you are able to navigate today's fast and furious events without losing your equilibrium. Your success secret is no secret at all to anyone who knows you — you truly care to do your best.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). It feels like it's been a long time since you had a profound realization. Well, that all changes now with a series of rapid-fire breakthrough thoughts. Everything could change from this day forward.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (AUGUST 16). You are a blessing to your world. This year delivers new opportunities for you to express the beauty in your heart. Next month, you brilliantly relate to people of different generations and there are tangible gifts that come from doing so. There's a windfall in November. You're chosen for a mission in January. Sagittarius and Aquarius adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 14, 39, 35, 49 and 16.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You're interested in meeting new people, and yet you're so choosy that it's very rare for you to actually add someone to your even the outermost realms of your circle.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You're punctual, as a rule. Usually you consider it rude to make someone wait for you. But maybe this person should wait, just a little while, in order to draw excited attention to your fabulous arrival.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Funny questions will run across your mind, like, is anyone really listening to me? Rest assured, each person gives you the degree of attention that they are capable of giving.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Before you leave the house, arm yourself with some interesting topics of conversation. You'll be meeting people who resonate on the same upbeat level as you. Still, it's good if you can keep the conversation rolling.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). When you notice that someone might be lonely or in need, you reach out. The recipient of your intention may not respond in the manner of your preference, but at least you can feel good about your gesture.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You'll be assessing relationships and your needs regarding them. You're able to be yourself. That's the greatest prize of intimacy. If you feel that you are not able to be yourself, the relationship isn't intimate.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You're making inroads in arenas that have, until now, been closed to you. You're not different; it's the atmosphere that's changed. This is your time, so make the most of it.

ASTROLOGICAL QUESTIONS: "I am an Aquarius in a relationship with a Gemini. When we first began, it was great and I was really emotionally involved. He seems like the perfect guy for me. Now I feel like I should be in this relationship, but am emotionally detached. I keep telling myself I am in a funk and it will pass. I don't know if I should just ride it out and see what happens, or if I should just end it and move on."

For Aquarius, the intensity can get draining, dull, lackluster, boring ... and there are far more enlightened things to explore, like your projects, your people and your politics. You both thrive on variety and independence, and while other signs find the following blissful, I really hope you aren't emotionally and physically in each other's business 24/7. I think you just need time out from heavy breathing. Go away for the weekend with your girlfriends. Get immersed in a work project and let it consume all of your hours. Gently distance yourself and make no decisions about how to define your relationship for at least two weeks. Upon your return to him, you'll see things differently and know immediately what to do.

CELEBRITY PROFILES: Madonna leads an unparalleled celeb life. Yet she's also impacted modern culture in the academic sciences, inspiring a subfield of media studies (the Madonna Studies), and a species is named after her: the E. Madonnae. She's certainly the center of her own world, but is also an example of how the Leo personality brings the world to her — by virtue of shining her authentic self.
