Happy New Year one and all! Forgive yourself and begin anew.

ARIES (March 22 to April 19): Heal old emotional wounds. Jupiter in your sign encourages expansion of your horizons. Take every opportunity to promote yourself. Optimism and luck are working well for you. By mid-March, the way is clear for plans developed last month. Both months are good for community activities and romance. Friendliness is your greatest asset. Plan your vacation now.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20): Feel like you are walking uphill through mud? Saturn, the Lord of Karma, demands more discipline from you than normal. Go with the flow rather than confront coworkers. By Valentine's Day, the good-luck planet, Jupiter, will move back into Taurus and plans will be a "go." You've worked hard; you deserve the best! Affirm positive outcomes and expect only the good.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 21): January is an excellent month for travel and new hobbies. Your mind feels the need for more challenge. Take that computer class or get a web-page on the Internet. Consider others' needs. This is an important year to heal relationships. Our relationships are a reflection of our own relationship to God. Trust more.

CANCER (June 22 to July 22): Be aware of decisions made within three days either side of the full moon on January 21st. Do not over-react. This could bring things to a head in a relationship. Stay positive and caring. Being overly sensitive or crabby won't bring the results you want. You should be feeling better by Valentine's Day. Celebrate with your Sweetie.

LEO (July 23 to August 22): Travel and romance could be in the air. The problem comes from trying to be all things to all people. Learn to delegate kindly. Watch your cash transactions in February. Being overly generous with borrowed funds could cause trouble. You will need to do some healing in romantic relationships, as well as getting on a better foot with your children. It's a great time to create something new. Get the kids to help you. Laugh a lot.

VIRGO (August 23 to September 22): It's time to heal family relationships. Let old grudges go and move forward with more trust and love. No one had a perfect childhood. Let go of the past; your future is very bright. Be careful with financial agreements in February. Get it on paper and read the small print. Monitor your daily schedule for one week. Are you wasting time instead of accomplishing what you want? This is your year to get it all together. Don't waste time worrying -- just do it!

LIBRA (September 23 to October 23): How about a romance to start the year? Why not? Also, speaking engagements may be offered to you in both months. Or, a writing class may be calling you. A children's ghost story with a happy ending would be nice. Get involved in something where you can learn and share knowledge. You are getting a peek into your immediate future. If you are involved with or interested in computers, holistic health or new ways to help people, you are on target. Go for it!

SCORPIO (October 24 to November 22): It's time to look at your patterns in relationships. Other people's feelings are just that: other people's. Maintain your balance and notice how deep your ruts are in your relationships. Are you just reacting, or interacting? The two teachers, Jupiter and Saturn, demand resolution. Come from your highest integrity. Take a vacation before making major relationship changes. If communication has broken down, start a new study together. Find something you both value and learn about it together.

SAGITTARIUS (November 23 to December 21): The new you is taking shape. Promote yourself; you are the hottest thing in town. Concentrate your efforts on where you have been drawn to go. Follow your heart and you will succeed in whatever you want. Take a class in February. Try some new art for a change. Home repairs are out. Do write down your goals for the coming year. Stay flexible; there is more change ahead!

CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19): Do you love your work? Are you helping humanity? Your views of work are changing. What does success mean to me? Affirmations can change your self-acceptance tapes of what you are worthy of receiving. Break free of self-doubt. Forgive yourself for errors of judgment. A new beginning is at hand and teachers will appear to help you. Some games of chance with your partner could be stimulating.

AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18): Lots of energy in January. Stay close to the friends that help you. Don't tempt fate with extreme daredevil activities. Take care of personal relationships this month; partners are sensitive. What have you done for yourself lately? Focus on your goals and stay positive. You will achieve whatever you desire by taking a direct approach. Finances are secure and will improve with foresight. Curb impulse spending. Take time out for yourself and soak in the tub.

PISCES (February 19 to March 20): It's time to change long-standing habits. Give yourself credit for your accomplishments, large and small. Explore the Internet, learn to meditate, plan a trip. Withdraw a bit from others' problems and do something for yourself. You will have help in professional matters. Self-doubt is out; confidence is in by February. Problems may arise in personal relationships; give them time to resolve.
