Stars -- Horoscope

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Your personal boundaries are always changing, and you can expect the same from your nearest and dearest. Be sensitive. What was just fine yesterday might be offensive today.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Hold your head up high. You attract people who respect themselves and respect you. Tonight, everything works out brilliantly as long as you remember to put love before money.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You've made concessions in the name of friendship. Further compromise could make you feel resentful. Explain your position in that charming way that only you can.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Your loyalties will be pulled in different directions. Surrender to your own truth. Tonight, it's the wildly silly side of love that keeps you entertained and wanting more.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Celebrate your unique attributes. Tonight, children (or childish people) do crazy things to get your attention. This can be curtailed if you focus on these guys before they need it.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You've figured out how to maneuver a system, but now, it's better just to forget it. Going by the rules isn't going to work because everything is rapidly changing. Access your creativity instead.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). There's so much to know about the world. Be grateful for any situation that points out a hole in your education. You'll be filling in a few blanks over the next three weeks.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Even if you think your heart's desire (to skydive, paint, travel, etc.) has nothing to do with a relationship right now, taking steps to fulfill your dream will make your relationships much stronger.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Be careful not to over-think your passionate impulses. Get back to the childlike immediacy you used to act out. Sure, this has gotten you burned a few times, but you're wiser now and better at assessing risk.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). One of the agreements you made long ago is in need of an amendment. This is the perfect day to update and refresh your commitments. The other party will be amenable to your suggestions.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Make sure the loved ones in your life are sufficiently honored. Or realize who you love, and show it with your actions. Tonight, to avoid becoming dreadfully serious, adopt an "if it's no fun, it's not getting done" policy.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You'll be called on to entertain. If you can't dazzle 'em with brilliance, baffle 'em with whatever comes off the top of your head. You are captivating either way.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (Dec. 28). You pride yourself on going above and beyond what's expected of you. Next month brings a showcase for your considerable talent - the favorable response you get is enough to puff up your ego slightly. You participate in the social swirl in March and come out of the party with new friends and/or romance. Taurus and Libra adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 8, 6, 14, 23 and 20.
