Horoscopes by Holiday by Holiday Mathis

If you're looking, it's not difficult to find evidence that there's more at work in the world than meets the eye. Some will be curious about the nature of unseen forces, and others will simply accept that they are. Either way, the Pisces moon features soulful expressions, facilitates deep connections and highlights profoundly heartfelt experiences.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You have a point to make, and you'll be given the floor. You'll be in excellent form when the attention is on you. Your succinct presentation will let everyone in your audience know that you respect their time.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You've a tendency to agonize about the next step. If you get stuck, mention it to the people around you. They'll give you all sorts of ideas that you won't agree with and suddenly you'll realize the direction you do want to go.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You'll be exploring a different culture, though not the ways of those from another country. This is the culture of a different business or family. Let your natural wit and gift of gab lead the way.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). You'll make a sale when you realize what you cannot control, like the other person's response to what you're offering, and set some goals around what you do have control over — like how many people you will approach.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You try and try to fit in, but you always end up standing out in some manner — it's just who you are. Embrace it and don't worry about conforming right now. You bring an interesting diversity to the group, and they love you.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You're more than a little fascinated by the success of friends. Even strangers in the media will annoy you with their rags-to-riches stories. Don't waste one more second in feeling jealous. Get to work.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). So, you're not exactly feeling passion for the job at hand. There has to be one aspect of it that moves you, though. Tap into it now because this is your ticket to some extra funds. Money always follows emotion.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You'll be dealing with someone who may as well be from another planet. Don't assume you know anything about this person's past or present. Ask open-ended questions. Your humor and warmth will bridge the gap.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Today, you naturally have the kind of social subtleties that will endear people to you forever. Spend time getting to know a new friend better. The laughter and fun will help you create a long-lasting friendship.

CAPRICORN (Dec.

22-Jan. 19). You understand the power of style, especially when it comes to dressing appropriately for the occasion and bringing the right accoutrements. A trendy addition will freshen up your classic repertoire.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You'll have the thought that it's just not fair what you must go for to prove your love. And maybe you're right. Try to assess your relationships from a different angle. There's a way in which you can interact that is fair.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You'll forge a connection of spirit. You have an almost telepathic understanding of someone's thoughts and feelings. You know this person's needs without being verbally told. This tie is beautiful and rare.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (OCTOBER 1). That path you have chosen is the best one for your spiritual unfolding. You have overcome many difficulties and this year, you focus on the most difficult one of all: how to be happy when everything is going right. You will learn to relax and have fun, laugh often and not take your work so seriously. You're in for a real treat. Cancer and Gemini adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 20, 4, 13, 17 and 49.

PERK UP A RELATIONSHIP BY DOING THIS ONE THING: As the sun traverses the sign of partnership and marriage, we want our relationships to be as harmonious as possible. Here's one thing you can do to improve a relationship you hold dear. GEMINI: Find out what the other person needs. A simple "Is there anything I can do to help you?" will do the trick. CANCER: Create happy memories. Sure, wonderful experiences could just happen by accident, but they'll happen far more often if you make some plans. Do some scheming and dreaming about how you can link as many positive associations as possible to your relationship. LEO: Slow down and give the other person lots of room to express him or herself. You're so fantastically entertaining and you take care to give others the floor, too, without interrupting or upstaging them. VIRGO: Focus on the here and now. Whatever happened in the past is completely over and if it's unpleasant, it's not worth bringing up. When you forgive, get the closure you need to do it all the way.

CELEBRITY PROFILES: Seann William Scott was inspired to become an actor after working in a movie theater and watching all the movies he could see for free. He's since added to the cinematic lexicon with more than 30 film acting credits, including perhaps his most famous role as Stifler in "American Pie." This friendly Libra has natal Mercury in hard-working Virgo and Saturn in Leo, the sign of show business.
