What do the stars hold in store for you?

Heather Royce-Roll

Aries
Honey, you're going to have to let go of your heartbreak. Noble suffering over a past love is a waste of time in the worst of circumstances. Now, in the best of circumstances, it's plain ludicrous. Someone has a growing attraction to you now. For once, God help us, they are your equal.

Taurus
Start your business, run with a new creative project, and apply for that new job. When it all works out, I want you to thank that Virgo who helped you.

Gemini
Your willpower and intense focus may have brought about your own personal apocalypse, but they will also get you to the point of liberation. As stability crumbles, be grateful that the unusable parts of your life have fallen by the wayside and apply your intellect to the next goal.

Cancer
Ah, romance and poetry! What dreaminess you've floated into. Expect to be busy while reveling in L-O-V-E. There are two projects you need to balance, possibly because you need more money, or possibly because you now exist in two worlds.

Leo
As you sink into nostalgia and moon over past loves, perhaps you should give some of your self-absorbed attention to the one who wants to love you now.

Virgo
You are so close you can almost taste it. Your fortune cookie says: Success is assured if you keep on practicing, learning, studying and honing your craft. But be sure to keep an eye on how you are growing psychologically. You can make changes now at your on pace. Or you can stagnant and wait for everything to change in a most unpleasant way.

Libra
Right now take out a pen and paper and make a list of everyone you a have hidden (or not-so-hidden) conflict with. Every day, until every name is crossed off the list, call one of those people. Say your piece, draw your line in the sand, and maintain coolness and clarity - and why not throw in a bit of compassion.

Scorpio
Ohhh, those fiery Leos! How they rush in and out of your life. One stands in the wings chomping on the bit, ready to either help you move, provide a brief but passionate affair, or heroically save the day. You decide what role they'll play.

Sagittarius
Parties, weddings, generations coming together. And you'll enjoy it this time. Steal some moves from that sexy magnetic dynamo with the business brains. Your idol could be you.

Capricorn
You have no excuse for failure. Go forth and conquer! We won't tell the world your little secret about being a softy under that cold exterior. Everything you need to feel secure - family, home, money - is conspiring to thrill you with stability.

Aquarius
The love you're looking for is just waiting for you to caress it, to romance it, to have you seek it out. Best bets? That cute Virgo or the inspiring Sagittarius.

Pisces
Everything boils down to power and authority. Who has it and how do you use it in your daily life? Please don't wimp out now. Ponder this while immersing yourself in your private passions. Follow your own inner voice into your depths instead of being drawn into someone else's.
