The Sagittarius moon inspires risk-taking. How many levels of "undo" are available to you in a certain situation? What is the margin for error? Where the tolerance for mistakes is high, creativity and freedom rule. Then the Capricorn moon takes over to remind us that we need the limits and rules, otherwise nothing gets done.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Some say we live in an age of narcissism, but the reasons a person might post selfies are usually much more complicated and nuanced than that. Healthy self-expression will be the hallmark of the day.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Truth-seekers like you are trustworthy, though you should be very skeptical of truth-finders today. The more certain a person is of being right, the less likely that is to be the case.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). It feels as though you've come a million miles but you're still doing the same things. The Zen proverb says, "Before enlightenment, chop wood, carry water. After enlightenment, chop wood, carry water."

CANCER (June 22-July 22). If the mountain is so tall that you can't see over it, you're unlikely to want to climb to the top. Who has time for an infinite journey? We all need hope, a vision of the pinnacle, a reason to think there is one.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Many people document special events, but it takes an artistic mindset to want to archive routine parts of life. You'll capture what's interesting about the day-to-day and later be glad for the reference to this time period.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Others will be bothered and hurt by things you can't predict and may never fully understand. You're more experienced. You're tougher. But you're still sensitive to the fact that everyone has a right to their feelings.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). If you had any resistance to authority, you'll drop it now. You need a leader more than you need to be the leader. Anyway, a power struggle would only waste time, when there's so much learning to be done.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Not knowing what to say to that person who is hurting, many will keep their distance. That's why you'll sidle up. Acknowledge the pain in the voice of compassion. You don't have to solve it, just acknowledge, "That must hurt."

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). This is no time to doubt, worry or over-think. This is a time to keep on trying, doing, going. The direction is simple and clear: forward, forward, ever forward.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Even though you really want to know the whole story, you'll resist the urge to push the matter, because privacy is sacred. You respect everyone's right to it, including your own.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). While you can't force everyone to get along, you can create an atmosphere of support, tolerance and calm around you. Others are likely to relax into it today.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). The human body has a delayed response to satisfaction. If you keep eating until you're full, you'll usually discover that you're over-stuffed instead. That's why, with food and most other pleasures, it's best to take it slow.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (Jan. 24). Because your individual spirit and unique vision are so strong this solar return, in most matters you will set your own course. You'll feel your power surge to help you with a challenge of your own making through the next 10 weeks. Taurus and Aries adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 6, 9, 40, 33 and 19.

ASTROLOGICAL QUESTIONS: "I keep dreaming about the same unicorn. The unicorn is sometimes my pet, and other times it walks up to me but I know it's not mine. It has come to me on a beach and in a forest, and once it walked up to my front door. Usually the unicorn doesn't say anything, but a few times it has spoken to me. Once it wanted food, and another time it wanted to be brushed. None of my friends ever dream of unicorns. What do you think it means?"

One thing I find fascinating about unicorns is that the Greeks who wrote about unicorns did not include these writings with other mythology; rather, the unicorn is recorded in Greek natural history as though it were a real creature. In the Middle Ages it was widely believed that a unicorn's horn had magical powers but that due to its purity and great strength it couldn't be captured to harness those powers except by a virgin of equal purity.

Given the modern associations of the unicorn to fanciful youth and the wonderment of childhood, I would suggest that your dream has to do with feeding and tending to the child inside of you. Are there things you wanted to pursue when you were younger but never had the chance? Your unicorn is urging you to pursue them now.

CELEBRITY PROFILES: Happy birthday to Neil Diamond, one of the most successful adult-contemporary artists in the history of the Billboard chart. This singer and songwriter has his natal sun and the communication planet, Mercury, in the quirky, humanistic sign of Aquarius. He says, "I try to be honest and truthful and soulful with the voice I have. If I make mistakes in notes ... I don't fix them. That's the way it is."
