For Monday, October 25, 2004

CELEBRITY PROFILES: I've been asked many times whether I believe New York Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton (10/26/47) will ever run for president and be elected to the office. She's a woman born under heavy Scorpio influences that are associated with the ability to do what it takes to get a job done, an undying search for truth, and a comprehensive understanding of complex political dynamics. I believe that if she were to be elected it would be in a time of war.

CELEBRITY PROFILES: Joaquin Phoenix (10/28/74) was born to Children of God missionaries and as a Scorpio is drawn to projects that have an underlying spiritual message or that investigate the spiritual realm in some way. Since his memorable performance in GLADIATOR in 2000, Mr. Phoenix has been working nonstop on the big screen. I predict a change in his personal life this year that adds even more dynamism to his work. He'll one day win an Academy Award.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (October 25, 2004): You're breaking out of your shell this year. The closer you get to your goal, the more there is to do. But no worries, this is the pathway of success and you're willing to find a way to make things happen this year. Fabulous partners help immensely. You've got the instinct to choose them wisely this month and next. For love, you're highly compatible with Virgo and Leo. Your lucky numbers are: 3, 12, 19, 7 and 10.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) You're more powerful when you don't allow yourself to take a questioning tone. Speak with all the authority that's been entrusted to you. You'll be negotiating your way into a situation and everything you say during the negotiation will bear strongly on the future of the arrangement. So if your inner voice is telling you to speak up, don't squelch it! (However, do resist the urge to reply, "In your dreams." to offers that seem ridiculous to you.)

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Your habit of being hard on yourself is not such a bad thing sometimes. At least you're wise enough to realize that you've got more to offer the world than you currently are... much more. Get your plan together. Ask a Virgo or Aquarius to look at your situation and give an outsider's point of view. You could me missing a big piece of the puzzle because you're simply too close to the scene.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21) What would you do without those wildcard people in your life who love throw you for a loop, making your life anything but boring? Come on, admit it – you depend on those loose cannons to keep you on your toes. So when one such character does his or her thing, don't waste time complaining or feigning surprise. Just tilt your head back and laugh. This is exactly what you needed.

CANCER (June 22-July 22) Take care of yourself, physically, mentally and spiritually. This requires that you feed your mind, heart and soul. You'll need your strength for walking through the threshold if the threshold needs walking through. Giving some of your energy to a charity you believe in will put you back in touch with what's important – this could be as simple as taking the time to read the most recent newsletter or website.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) The times are a' changing, and you're realizing this in a big way. What was passable yesterday won't cut it anymore, and the very same numbers that would have put you at the top of the game won't even get you into the race now. Even a master makes a commitment to continuous study, realizing that the boundaries of greatness are ever expanding. So don't be intimidated by new standards. If you're serious about being the best, you'll do what it takes.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) It is a basic human need to be acknowledged – one that you feed so well in others and often neglect in yourself. It's not arrogant to admit the existence of truth, which is what you're doing when you take note of your talents, your good deeds and your accomplishments. Doing this privately will help you publicly be more receptive to others. Tonight you're especially in-the-moment, which is why you clue in to vital information.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) You're a model of excellent behavior. Of course it has been said that as a rule well-behaved people rarely make history. Consider an area of your life in which you might allow yourself to cut loose. After all, the world won't come to an end if you take a bubble bath instead of doing the dishes, rollerblade in the park instead of eating lunch at your desk, or refuel to pick up the phone for anyone at all.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21) You can turn this into a peaceful day by being mellow and, quite literally, unassuming. Don't presume to know what people are thinking and don't read too deeply into what's being implied. Ask questions and be quiet to hear the answers. New people will be drawn to this very centered you. The project you care about will be forwarded in it's own time, so there's no need to push things along. Wait until people call you back – don't call them twice.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Because your attitude is optimistic, open-minded and filled with affinity for your colleagues, you're considered the go-to person in your work community. Taking on responsibility gives you confidence, and confidence leads to attracting just the people who will enrich your life. Someone you were once lovesick over is now aching about you! Isn't it beautiful when the tables turn? Try not to gloat.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You would prefer not to have to adapt to the rest of the world. It somehow seems easier for you to get the rest of the world to adapt to you. Of course you're being unreasonable, but thank goodness for you – all progress is made by unreasonable people. At home, you may feel like being proud just when you should ask for help. It's okay not to know everything. Didn't anyone ever tell you that know-it-alls are annoying?

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) In your effort to be honest you may be too transparent. Remember that keeping your inner world private is always your prerogative. Loved ones respect you more when you reveal less. It's probably the case that you are dissatisfied with a partner's decision, but making that known is premature and could embarrass you later. Let things play out and see how you feel tomorrow. Be present for young people tonight.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Energy is up and you're on a roll! You know you're in the right line of work when it's hard to distinguish business from pleasure. People around you spark to your playful imagination and will add in their own two cents. Soon you're onto something big. Write down your ideas because tomorrow you may not feel like following through, but at least you can file these gems away for another day when you're ready to start something new.
