Mercury and Pluto form a trine that bodes well for the responsible people of the world, and those who wish to be. Responsibility can be the difference between a thriving venture and a wish. Those who step up and take more on will have to work harder but they'll also get to enjoy a greater feeling of agency and accomplishment.
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Each group has its own culture. You could fit in very well with this new one. How far should extend yourself? Go slow, but be a giver. Not giving costs more than giving.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). It doesn't usually work like this, but in certain moments you'll be able to take hold of your mind and essentially tell it who's in charge and how you need it to think. Oh happy day!
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You may find that other people's opinions and even their expectations mean next to nothing to you today. It's your own ideas about what you should be that matter. Still, when the applause is for you, take your bow.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). The light within you is shining bright, something that is extra convenient in situations that tend toward the shady. In fact, you might save someone today, just by being you.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). When you're in an authority position, it's rather easy to get people to work for you. Getting them to work with you is different. They'll do this not because of your position but because of the character of your leadership.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Your loved ones may be curious about your limits, or perhaps they are just having a mindless moment that causes them to cross you. Either way, now at least they'll know where your boundaries lie.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). New friendships are coming into your life and they could evolve into love, business or both. The window of possibility is wide open for your social life these days.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). People say that love takes work, but it's usually the kind of work that you don't mind doing because it comes so naturally to you. Anyway, it won't feel like an effort at all today.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You're not always readily available to your loved ones, and this is how it should be. Otherwise, you won't know what it's like to have your own undivided and uninterrupted attention. Keep boundaries clear.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Good teachers cause their own obsolescence. Not only is it noble to take your students to the point of getting along without you, but if you don't, you'll be forever doing the work that should go to others.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You don't automatically believe hearsay, but something will feel very true about what's going on today. It's worth staying alert to, but don't act on anything unproven.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Your attitude is more important than what actually occurs today. It will have more bearing on the results than the facts. A stellar attitude can turn problems into opportunities.
TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (Sept. 15). Not only will you feel a great sense of belonging at home, you'll also feel it where you didn't expect to — with friends, in the community and even in places you've never been before. What you do to express admiration will begin an adventure. Don't invest until you feel it in your bones. October is luckiest. Pisces and Scorpio adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 10, 7, 33, 38 and 16.
ASTROLOGICAL QUESTION: "I am very discriminating when it comes to my private life. Finally, I have my eye on someone I think I could like. Do you think we'd make a good match? My birthday is March 3, 1959, and I am attracted to a woman born Dec. 9, 1959."
Making the first move can be nerve racking but remember you don't have to tell all in your initial meeting. Your charts reveal many favorable aspects that look promising for romance. Your Pisces sun is trined (blending of energy) with Venus in Scorpio in her chart creating a balance between your sympathetic nature and her need for demonstrative affection. Perhaps the most promising aspects are your Sagittarius moon conjunct (in the same position) her Mars and Jupiter in Sagittarius, as well as trining her moon in Aries. These are solid emotional connections, with exciting overtones of chemistry and attraction. My guess is that she's had her eye on you and has been waiting for you to make your move. Don't wait too long, her Sagittarius influences could cause her to get restless.
