Happy birthday. A trial is over, and you're ready to play! July will improve your status, and a new friend will entertain and help you. The enthusiasm you bring to work will translate into bonus money in September. Projects relating to writing, marketing, publishing and the like open new income sources.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): A deeper look into your possessions will reveal what you have, what you thought you'd lost and what you'd totally forgotten about. It also will prevent unnecessary future purchases.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You've developed your aesthetic through the years. It's not always the easiest thing to have a high level of taste, though. The rest of the world rarely complies. That's why you'll be so happy with today's discovery.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21): There is no "whatever" in your vocabulary. There is only what you would prefer, and you're not afraid to let people know that in the nicest way possible.

CANCER (June 22-July 22): It's better to take off a small chunk of a project and see what you can do with it than to tackle a large chunk that you'll be unable to finish in a reasonable time period.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): It's better to share something you made instead of the commercial version. People want to experience the special thing you do, not what anyone with the money could buy.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Karma will swing around for those who have wronged you. Not that you were waiting for it, but it's still comforting.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): You are present and sharp. You'll quickly respond to others in a way you didn't feel up to yesterday. You fully inhabit the moment.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): The new venture is, at this point, not quite exciting enough to pull you forward. You're not reaching far enough with this one! When you look back at these first moves, they will seem laughably conservative.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You haven't had the time to spend on the thing that really matters to you, because you haven't made the time. Willfully take control of the schedule, or it's not going to happen.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Confidence and comfort will be intrinsically linked. If you're perfectly dressed for the occasion at hand, you'll have a distinct advantage. Looking and feeling good help you shine.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): If very few people have accomplished something, there is a good reason: Excellence doesn't happen overnight. You'll make a commitment to rise to the level of excellence in a new area.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Make up your own mind about people. Rumors will fly, but don't believe what you hear. Go straight to the source whenever possible, or, better yet, just don't take part in the drama.
