This full moon in the wild, adventurous sign of Sagittarius features the added support of the planet ruler of Sagittarius, which is Jupiter. The largest planet in our system goes direct today, decreeing that these are the times of a straightforward cause-and-effect kind of good fortune. And the harder you work, the luckier you'll become.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Your powers of imagination are so mighty these days that they can be used as tools to overcome fear. A vivid picture of the future you're creating will magnetically override your trepidation.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You might feel compelled to explain, defend or justify your choices to that person who seems to think he or she is owed a response. But the thing is, no one is owed anything from you today. Maybe you should proceed in silence.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Emotions seem to visit you from everywhere: the passing clouds; the picture that triggers a memory; a baleful passage of song; or an exuberant melody. It's all ripe for inspiration.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). To put one's head inside the crocodile's mouth isn't bold; it's foolish. Maybe it's also foolish to put one's heart in the hands of another and hope for mercy. Unfortunately, it's love's nature.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). If you could put today's problem into a box, it would be a really tiny box. The key is to look at it as it really is, without letting your mind do fun-house mirror trickery on the situation.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). It's going to really take some time and a major effort for your current endeavor to be fruitful. Are you ok with having nothing to show for your efforts for a long while? If you are, you know that this is the right pursuit for you.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Experience is the main goal, and a worthy one at that. When you do something for the sake of doing it, your expectations of yourself adjust accordingly and you can relax into the very fulfilling process of learning.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Maybe you're the most qualified person to assess your situation, and maybe you're not. It would be wise to ask for other points of view. An outsider will help you understand something you didn't before.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). It's not so hard to make the choice to be kind to yourself. Even if this is not your first instinct, you'll take to it and quickly understand why most progress is made by the self-encouraging.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You think anyone could do your job, but the truth is that it wouldn't be so easy to recast you. Even if someone proficient stepped in, it wouldn't be the same. Anyway, today it just has to be you.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). This unhelpful thought you're having: Did you have it yesterday, too? And the day before that? Its recurrence isn't an indicator of its validity; it only means that it's more of a habit than a thought. Habits can be broken.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Don't be afraid to make the first move. As you make new friends you'll help others get together, too. Your good cheer will reduce people's social trepidation and fear of rejection.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (June 9). The start of this solar return comes with a feeling like you've landed on another planet. You've little in common with your surroundings and the beings who share them. There will be many benefits to learning this alien culture, and you'll cash in on what you know. August features promises exchanged. Capricorn and Aries adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 7, 40, 22, 15 and 38.

WEEKEND LOVE FORECAST: ARIES: Everything and everyone you experience changes you in some way. There are no exceptions. If you're not changed, you weren't engaged in the experience. TAURUS: Your partner in fun and crime will be by your side when it counts and when it doesn't. GEMINI: You'll influence your loved ones with your thought, but only because you follow it up with such interesting actions. CANCER: You know what people get when they spend time with you. Offer it to the ones who will most appreciate it. LEO: What works for you in relationships is different from what works for another. Live and let live. VIRGO: Make relaxation a priority. You'll have some fun, and you'll be the fun, too. LIBRA: Asking your date an excellent question can blow a locked door right off its hinges. SCORPIO: Flow with what you feel, even if it seems fickle. You're allowed to change your mind. SAGITTARIUS: Infatuation doesn't come from a wise and experienced place in your psyche. Cupid is a whimsical infant. CAPRICORN: Platonic feelings have a way of transforming to change with your needs. AQUARIUS: You're ready to take an important step in the name of love. PISCES: It's too early to tell your friends about your love life. Your feelings are still fresh and need to settle in.

COUPLE OF THE WEEKEND: What Sagittarius and Gemini have in common will be more pronounced under this full moon in the sign of adventure. So will be their differences. (Gemini leads with intellect, Sagittarius with passion.) What these two share is a comfort level with evolution. They crave a sense of forward movement and are early adopters of trends. They were born on the fast track and enjoy it even more together.
