PISCES (FEB. 19 – MARCH 20)

Remember that solemn promise you made to yourself last week? Well, if you don’t work at keepin’ it, you could wind up in deep doo-doo. Now before you go and get all boo-hoo and teary eyed, you don’t know how hard it really is until you’ve tried. You’d be surprised how easy it can be to manifest your destiny!

ARIES (MARCH 21 – APRIL 19)

Peter Piper may have picked a pound of pickled peppers, but unless he proceeded prudently, he could’ve mistakenly taken a tiny tepin. In case you didn’t know, this teensy pepper from North Mexico is five times hotter’n the habanero. Now hopefully what you’ve learned is to be extra choosy this week and not get burned!

TAURUS (APRIL 20 – MAY 20)

Good ol’ staid, steady, standin’-firm-with-stubbornness-to-burn Taurus. Can anything tempt you to deviate from your decision to dwell in this pasture? You better hope so. How else are you gonna learn that although the grass may not be any greener on the other side o’ the fence, that don’t mean it ain’t gonna be tastier at lesser expense!

GEMINI (MAY 21 – JUNE 20)

Don’t be dissuaded by the dearth of development in your dream. It’s all part of nature’s grand scheme. Take the egg, for example. It just sits there and doesn’t do a damn thing for days. If you crack it before it’s ready though, you only get one breakfast. Let it hatch and the eggs the chicken’ll provide for you’ll be almost endless!

CANCER (JUNE 21 – JULY 22)

This week, you’re kinda like Conan the Barbarian in that you’ve been foiled by a foe and hung out to dry on the Tree of Woe, with nothin’ to do but scare off vultures by occasionally bitin’ one in the neck. But time’ll pass. The odds someone’s gonna cut you down so you can kick ass aren’t that small. You are the star of the flick after all!

LEO (JULY 23 – AUG. 22)

The intense fire that you carry within can be used either for virtue or for sin. In this case, the definition of sin would be furtherin’ yourself at the expense of strangers, friends or kin. Use your flame this week to cook, not to burn, and you won’t have bad karma attached to the money you earn!

VIRGO (AUG. 23 – SEPT. 22)

Right now, it’s all about keepin’ a low pro, stayin’ on the down-low and not rockin’ the pontoon. Besides that, ain’t nothin’ happenin’ anytime soon, at least not ’till next week’s lucky Virgo full moon (who’ll bestow upon you a bountiful boon). This week, if you wanna get that far, you’ll do your best to fly below the radar!

LIBRA (SEPT. 23 – OCT. 22)

Because you Libras have an inborn ability to observe things from different perspectives, you figure things out quickly and would make good detectives. But that’s why you also get easily bored — once you’ve worked out a problem, it immediately gets drawered. Well, don’t throw this one onto the heap ’cause the solution you see is only superficially deep!

SCORPIO (OCT. 23 – NOV. 21)

You’ve got power aplenty but what should be understood is that you can use your force just as easily for evil as good. Of course, you’ve got to consider karma, too, and the fact that what you put out there’ll come back to you. Bein’ bad may give your status a boost, but you better be ready when the hens come home to roost!

SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22 – DEC. 21)

This week, a change is gonna come up on you so fast, you’re gonna get caught with your pants down. Now, you can pull ’em up and pretend you weren’t fazed, you can brood over it endlessly for the rest of your days or best of all, you could turn it into the new fashion craze. C’mon, you know nobody’s better at bein’ a trendsetter!

CAPRICORN (DEC. 22 – JAN.19)

It’s a damn good thing you’re one o’ them there mountain goats, ’cause nobody else could possibly scale these cliffs like you cloven-hoofed climbin’ machines. Nobody. That’s why you’re gonna have to go it on your own and leave them behind as they drop. It’s tough, but it’ll be easier after you find what’s waitin’ up top!

AQUARIUS (JAN. 20 – FEB. 18)

Ever wonder what it’s like to be a fish? Well, you’ll find out this week when some angler dangles their bait in your face. Now before your heart starts to race at the prospect of a meal, it ain’t the worm that’s real. If you bite hook, line and sinker, you’ll know exactly what kind of fish you are. Sucker!
