The final moments of Jupiter in Aquarius is like the hour before the end of a garage sale: Deals are struck simply to reduce the workload of putting everything away. Shedding what's left is a relief to the seller, and the buyer gets a bargain. Themes will include social currency, notions about friendship and useful connections.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Roller coasters and love affairs cannot compete with the thrill of accomplishment. Your excitement builds as you make remarkable progress toward your goals, but you also inspire your team to produce rapid results.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Someone has a feeling that they want to promote you, hire you or put you in a role. For now, they are just watching to know you better. Keep in mind, they see only what you do, not what you intend to do.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You will be faced with contradictions between what you believe and what is occurring in front of your eyes. You can't change reality, so it's the beliefs that have to move.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Relationships grow closer in funny ways. Consider making a confession — a harmless admission that is perfect to tell a friend. Honesty is a bonding agent.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Your cat qualities will come out. You'll be smart, chic and mysterious. You'll quietly observe, in no hurry to get involved unless you see the perfect opportunity. Then you'll pounce.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Go on, try to ignore the restlessness in your soul. It isn't going away. You may as well listen and see where it's urging you on ... most likely toward a touchstone of goodness.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You've traveled, but it's been a while since you've visited someplace completely new. Look into it. Put it into a plan. A trip in the distant future will invigorate your life at present.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Don't make people guess how to treat you, what you want or how to move in the world with you in it. Tell people what to do with you and they'll do it.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You are a retinal magnet, pulling eyes toward you wherever you go. You walk with confidence, smile with intrigue, relate with warmth. Strangers will say hello — even the shy ones.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Your preferences fortify you. So, settle into the comfort of familiar things: Sitting in your favorite chair; sipping your favorite drink; watching your favorite TV show.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Your influence grows as you learn how to better accommodate others. They are attracted to you because of the way they feel around you. You make their lives easier and more comfortable.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). It's not pessimistic to reduce your expectations. Rather, it's a strategy that will allow you to be pleasantly surprised by life. You'll love what happens when you let go of needing it to be one way.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (Dec. 27). You don't have to add a single thing; your power comes in the form of subtraction. You home in on the important things to get right and you cut out the unnecessary, strengthening your overall position while making your life much easier to manage. Glorious shared experiences bond friendships for life. Sagittarius and Aquarius adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 40, 33, 1, 14 and 26.

COSMIC QUESTION: "I'm a Sagittarius, and my coworkers don't like me. I've learned this because I read an email that was accidentally forwarded to me that included some snarky comments about me. When I confronted the sender of the email, my boss called a meeting of a few of the people involved. They apologized; I accepted, but I'm seriously thinking about trying to find another job. They think I'm pushy, bossy, selfish and loud. I think they are just intimidated because I have ideas and I'm not afraid to make things happen. What do you think?"

In many settings, your fire-sign boldness and passion are an advantage, but your ability to work in a group is also an essential part of your package, professional and otherwise. So, before you start applying elsewhere, see if you can take this upset as a challenge to gain some political savvy. Regardless of your co-worker's motives or how off-base they may be, this is the perfect excuse to work on interpersonal skills that will serve you well beyond this situation. Start with some soul-searching. Is there a grain of truth here — a behavior you can adopt or one you might curb? If you can turn this scene around, you'll be invincible!
