Under this rare Saturn and Neptune position, much is possible through clear sight. Getting a vivid perspective requires a better vantage, a higher awareness. Realize that you're expecting to see something in particular, and that expectation disallows you to see clearly the thing that's really there. So do away with expectation, and then look again.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). While "I'll know it when I see it" is a fine enough guiding principle for a solo artist, groups need a more specific set of rules to go by. A good leader will think it over and spell it out.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Does it please you to know that someone is working hard to impress you? It's flattering, to say the least, although you must also realize that this has a lot to do with what the individual is projecting onto you.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). When it doesn't work, an explanation for what went wrong is a nice thing to have. Also, it's a luxury. You don't get it every time, nor would you want to come up with it every time. To shrug and walk on... that's grace, too.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). There are people you know who have to, in order to survive and act normal, do things you would consider rather strange. Your ability to accept this will be the key to this day going smoothly.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). A very strong bond is built one fiber at a time. And if you want to get microscopic about it it, this happens on a cellular level. Small things, repeated... this is the theme. This is the glue that will bond you to your goal.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Working people often have less leisure time than others. Since time is the most precious commodity we have, it does make one think about the work worth doing, and the work not worth doing.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). When things go wrong, it may be circumstances that cause it, but as a responsible person you're always trying to assess which circumstances you can control and which you can't.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Your attention is worth something. You can't afford to give it away willy-nilly. And you won't. You won't click on nonsense or sit through what doesn't interest you. You won't look into drama. You'll keep your nose clean.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You'll be dealing with new people whose sensibilities may surprise you. Like a masseuse working on a new client, the best way to learn what pressure to use is to ask.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Are you thinking big enough? It will be impossible to detect from where you are. It will take an outsider to assess the situation. Who can you bounce your ideas off of?

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). A mystery is a thrill. And if the mystery seems like it might actually be safe, all the more exciting — to be thrilled and not killed, that's the entertainment sweet spot on which books, movies and roller-coaster rides are predicated.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You relate to someone who is solving things and that's because you are also a part of the solution. Get right in there and give your ideas. You are feeling this way for a reason. Don't wait for permission; just go.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (Jan. 31). You'll invest yourself before others realize this is a successful channel. You're not expecting quick results. You take pleasure in the the slow, steady building of something you believe in. More highlights: a sacrifice allows for astounding beauty, you'll live as others do (an eye-opener), and you'll pursue exceptional love. Capricorn and Taurus adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 8, 40, 2, 22 and 18.

AQUARIUS SUN CHECKLIST FOR GIVING: One would hope that the higher impulses of humanitarianism and philanthropy would be innate; alas, it doesn't seem to be the case. We have to learn to share, hopefully as children, as greed and self-interest seem to be our natural setting. Rightly so. Without any self-interest, we'd all perish. And yet, were we to operate strictly on those natural inclinations, we would perish perhaps even sooner. The health of our humanity hinges on transcendence.

Anyone who never asks, "Am I a good person?" is probably not a good person. So how is your spirit of generosity? The solar age of Aquarius is well underway, making this the perfect moment to check in on the flow of give and take creating currents in your world. Here are five questions for keeping yourself in check:

1. When was the last time I gave my time, attention, work or resources without expectation of a return?

2. When was the last time I gave anonymously?

3. What is my emotional tone when I think of others?

4. Have I been petty?

5. Am I living in a way that, were everyone to live in this way, would make the world better?

CELEBRITY PROFILES: Whether he's topping the pop charts, rocking a stadium tour or baking goodies in Instagram for his beloved wife, fans swoon for Justin Timberlake. The Aquarius superstar was born when Mars was also in this socially conscious sign and expressive Mercury was in Pisces, a highly artistic and intuitive placement. Venus in Capricorn suggests that Timberlake is also a financial wizard.
