Horoscopes 9-5

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You would like to be able to surrender your own will to the will of the heavens, but faith doesn't always come easily. So it's nice when you find out that what you want is also best for everyone.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Where there's a spotlight, step into it. If the forum is open to questions, ask one. When there's a need for volunteers, be one. Making yourself more visible to others will help you identify or hone your talent.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You may feel a little bit lost. When you ask for guidance, you get it. And you'll probably find out in the process that you're not as bad off as you thought you were. You're pretty close to the goal now.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Somewhere along the line your creativity was squelched by the practical sort of person who simply didn't understand you. Now you're inspired to use your imagination and make up for lost time.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). It's the perfect time for wandering. Go off purpose. See places you're not particularly interested in. Communicate with people you have no business talking to. Bring on your own awakening.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). In these mercurial times, being merely adaptable simply isn't enough. Why be amenable to change when you can fall in love with it? Seek pleasure in the knowledge that everything is becoming something different.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Oh, the shenanigans you'll get into. It looks like a barrel of laughs to an outside observer; however, your experience is probably different. You may even wonder whether this kind of fun is worth the work involved.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You were the one to start a project. Someone else has taken over and is leading things in a different direction than the one you would have chosen. This isn't necessarily a bad thing. Keep an open mind.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Prayer comes in many forms. Today, your thoughts are your prayers and so are the questions you ask yourself. You're deepening a union with the mysteries of your own heart.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Who can do it better than you? Probably no one. Still, you can't do everything. Sooner or later you have to delegate. Your choice of candidates isn't perfect, but it's certainly adequate.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Stay in control. Go cautiously into new situations. Promise nothing, but don't say you promise nothing. Use only a few choice words to convey where you're at and your intentions for the future.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You've been keeping it together for a long time, and it's coming easier to you. You never lacked brains, but you must admit that you're now smarter than you ever were. You solve today's problems in a snap.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (Sept. 4). You're so well liked that over the next seven weeks your pals might actually fight for your exclusive attention. You prove your big heart, not to mention sheer class, when you hone in on the positive contributions your loved ones bring you. Investments pay in November. Relationships go to the next step in January. Libra and Aquarius adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 2, 50, 21, 43 and 6.
