We often make the kind of mistakes that wouldn't even be counted as such under different circumstances with other people. Just because someone takes offense doesn't mean we're being offensive. This (overly?) sensitive Cancer moon suggests that we smooth things over regardless of who is to blame, only because it will make life easier.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You will love the work you're doing and may actually choose to work perpetually as a result. Your loved ones who are similarly happy at work will understand. The others, not so much!

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). If you were to summon all your powers of creativity (and they are mighty strong today, to be sure) to redesign yourself, who would the new you be? Don't let the ones who knew you before hold you back. They'll adjust.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Progress and struggle go together. Some would argue that they must — that there is no progress without struggle. Then again, an inspiring influence can make the struggle seem mild, even satisfying!

CANCER (June 22-July 22). The love experts have spoken: Don't fall in love with someone who flirts with everyone. If you disregard this advice (or have received it too late), then at least take comfort in the fact that whatever happens next, it's nothing personal.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Your life will be better through the magic of delegation. But this only works if you do it the right way: Joyfully hand over the task; let go; walk away; don't look back.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). When fantasy relationships become reality, illusions soon dissolve. The bubble of specialness around the situation may pop. And if you still like each other after that, this relationship has real potential.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). When you can be your less-than-ideal self with someone, it means you are closer with that person than you are with the people you feel the need to constantly impress. The question today is: How close do you really want to be?

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Containing passionate feelings is, as a rule, hard for humans. You're the exception to this rule. You can stay cool even when there's a volcano going off in your emotional body. It's an amazing trick you'll practice today.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You wonder if you may have under-loved someone who deserved a better quality of attention from you. You may not get the chance to rectify this with the same person, but you'll pay it forward.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Maybe there really is a time for everything, and yet you can count on the fact that it's seldom a convenient time or one that's under your control — another argument for doing instead of waiting.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Being the different one in the group isn't bad, but it does mean you'll have to acquire more credibility and skills than the others. It won't be hard. The hardest part is accepting the injustice. Once you do, the rest is cake.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Since most of the relationships in your life are involuntary (family, neighbors, co-workers, etc.), it makes sense for you to be very choosy about the ones that are voluntary (friends and more). Exercise your right to be picky.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (March 7). You'll discover the level of risk that suits you best. Your financial horizons open up in the next 10 weeks. Don't settle for what's offered to you, though, as you're luckiest while being proactive. A sweet connection in May will alter your destiny. You'll please the crowd and yourself simultaneously in August. Aries and Gemini adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 4, 39, 12, 46 and 17.

ASTROLOGICAL QUESTIONS: "I was born Sept. 27, 1963. I'm bored with my job and life, and I don't feel like I'm progressing at all. Two of my siblings are already in the USA and my remaining sibling is planning to emigrate there. I don't really want to move, but there is nothing more that I want here. If I decide to migrate, I would have to study again, probably for the next three or four years, in order to get a working visa so I can stay in the country legally. Should I go ahead? Will I do better in another country, or will I have a harder life? I'm still single."

As a Libra with Venus in Libra, too, your love of learning is strong. I believe that whether or not you decide to go, the schooling is just what you need to get out of this rut of boredom. I think some of your schooling will be done through correspondence online, but your work in the classroom will bring you together with inspiring individuals. Libras are extremely motivated by their environment. Plus, you have a Capricorn moon, which gives you a competitive edge. In short: Enroll in school and your zest for life will come!

CELEBRITY PROFILES: Academy Award winner Rachel Weisz is another example of a Pisces who had a strong idea about her career path early in life. She was a model at 14 years old and was winning acting awards for her work on stage in her early 20s. Pisces is the sign of old souls and also of great intuitive powers. Many Pisces rely heavily on intuitive guidance to navigate their careers, and it works brilliantly.
