Stars -- Horoscope

ARIES (March 21-April 19. You're on fire. Use your passionate stars to trail-blaze new paths for your personal success. The next five weeks bring impressive accomplishments. You're changing without trying.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Maybe you're not so great at expressing your anger - it unexpectedly erupts when you don't mean for it to. Perhaps you didn't even know you were frustrated. Now you do! Knowledge is power.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You can always find a tender place in your heart for the sap who has a "kick me" sign stuck on his or her back. You'll find it pretty easy to remove the sign without drawing a lot of attention to it.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). If you were a torpedo, you'd be headed to the moon - you have that much focused ambition to accomplish over the next five weeks. You'd also show up on someone's radar, especially those challenged by your strength.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). What you once needed to protect and keep to yourself you now release into the atmosphere like a bunch of butterflies. Hire a PR person or become your own. Hold nothing back. What you share openly multiplies your good.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You're emitting powerful vibes. This could manifest as renewed physical appeal, too - you're attractive to people you wouldn't have thought would go for you.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You can argue, there's no doubt about it. Over the next few days, try out this idea: "Your wrong doesn't make me right," and the flip, "My right doesn't make you wrong." It works both ways.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Your planets give you the equivalent of a double espresso shot. Burn up your energy, and you burn out. Do a slow burn instead. It's better for the body and better for the long haul ahead.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You're an exhibitionist at heart. Even if you've never before considered the dramatic arts, during the next few days

you're surprised at how much drama you've got in you.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Pushing around furniture is far more gratifying than pushing around people, an obvious but practical reminder. So you can't remember why you love the annoying people you do, but the love is there. It's hiding in plain sight.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). When Tom Petty wrote "I Won't Back Down," he was singing through painful feelings of loss. You'll find that turning up the volume on your own tenderness is equally useful now.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You know better than to go grocery shopping on an empty stomach. Likewise, distinguishing want vs. need over the next few weeks is tricky. Staying well-fed on all levels is one way to deal.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (May 15). You shine receptive, open energy on everyone you meet. Honor these spontaneous connections as a reflection of your simple goodness. Get back-burner home projects off the ground in June. You find a new income stream in August. A July romance sizzles through the summer. A Gemini person and another Taurus person suit you. Your lucky numbers are: 16, 12, 45, 23 and 6.
