For Wednesday, October 27, 2004

CELEBRITY PROFILES: The unconventionally glamorous Kelly Osbourne (10/27/84) reportedly bought a fantastic Hollywood home with the intention of moving out of the parent's place, only to turn around and sell it months later because she never quite made the move. Is it difficult for other Scorpios to flee the family nest? No matter how it may look from the outside, Scorpios form intense spiritual bonds with their kin. They don't necessarily have to get along to be close.

CELEBRITY PROFILES: John Cleese (10/27/39) has appeared in well over 100 film projects and been a writer, director or producer on almost as many! Very recently Mr. Cleese played a recurring television role as Karen's love interest on the hit series WILL & GRACE. As one of the most successful, prolific, and yet not overly exposed character actors of our time, Mr. Cleese no doubt draws on his Scorpio ability to maintain a high degree of privacy.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY(October 27): The answers are there for you this year, all you have to do is ask the right questions! Your focus on self improvement pays off beautifully and by the end of next month you're filled with pride in your accomplishments and self confidence. New people in your life energize your work situation, giving you new success models. A financial breakthrough in February is so well deserved! Lucky love signs are Virgo and Aquarius. Your lucky numbers are: 3, 50, 6, 11 and 19.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) The A.M. brings a flash of brilliance far too applicable to your current situation to waste. It will take guts to speak up to the person who has the power to help you make the most of your position. You're proposing a new standard, after all, instead of falling into the line that's already been established. But rewards go to the brave. Tonight you'll be busy with some colorful and high-energy people just like you.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Though you've gotten just about everything you asked for last week, it very well may be that you're still not happy. It's time to raise the stakes again, this time being more specific to your particular value set. You know yourself better than ever these days and therefore can be a better predictor of your feelings. Your job brings a mini-adventure. You'll run into some strange character. Be accepting of other people's eccentricities!

GEMINI (May 21-June 21) You don't have to surrendering part of yourself in order to merge your life with another person – that is unless this is not a good match to begin with! You're dreaming about who the perfect person might be for you and what qualities they possess, but when it comes to real life, it's more about chemistry and compatible lifestyles than anything else. Have faith in your intuitive ability and above all, don't go for anyone solely because you find them "cute."

CANCER (June 22-July 22) There are the doomsayers all around you, but don't believe a word of it, especially when the subject is the economy. (There will always be a market for a product that people need or want, and you're smart enough to know what such products are and get your hands on them!) Your qualifications make you perfect for a position that's just opening up today, so put your feelers out there. You'll finally rid yourself of a restless feeling.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Your charisma makes you popular and you take the responsibility seriously. You've got a healing gift to offer the world around you. Your special "medicine" is the optimistic force of your spirit. A kind smile, a thoughtful word or the pleasure of your company will be all it takes to elevate the mood of those around you, if only for a brief time. Tonight, people around you tend to be emotional, but you'll level them out.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Some would say that you're lucky, but you see it more logically than that. You don't sit around wishing and hoping until one day... poof! No, you use cause and effect instead... A+B=C. You're always amazed at how many people won't do the very thing to get the result they seek. People would rather take diet pills, for instance, than eat sensibly and exercise. Not you. You see what you want, and you take the most direct route to get it!

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) Your "brainchild" is growing up and starting to walk on its own! Help it out by finding more places where it will be useful, more people who need it and more opportunities to showcase it. To succeed, you must dare, not once or twice, but many times. Though it may take a while, you'll finally get what you want. In matters of the heart, you'd like to get a guarantee, even though you realize that there really aren't any.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21) Suddenly it's very important to "get real" with your relationships. Don't worry to much about the future, but do center yourself and ask the hard questions – like what is it you were expecting out a relationship before you stepped into it. This applies not only in your love life, but at work too. It's a good time to remember you are the one who got you where you are. Your charm in a social situation will impress the boss.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Engage in energetic pursuits, and start up new ones. Beginnings are laced with luck. You'll get an offer you can't refuse, but do. Where do you get your audacity? Well, you're dreaming big and can't be bothered with anything that distracts you from what you really want. Romantic complications are becoming less complicated due to your decisive attitude. Certain friends are not true. You need to drop someone from your circle whose negative influence holds you back.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Be careful whose heart you play with! A formerly harmless flirtation could turned into something more. You could easily get sucked into a love triangle. Maybe it's best to shift your attention from love to career. Everyone you're working with wants autonomy. Respect people's wishes whenever you can. Good impressions lead to promotion and added recognition. Remember that financial security is available to you as much as to anyone else. Social note: Plan a small dinner party for this weekend!

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Each person has a unique relationship with money. Some are spenders, some are savers... you're an investor. You apportion some of your hard earned cash into risky but scientific propositions and watch it come back to you at a considerable increase. This becomes so much fun, you could easily get sucked into the process now, or even obsessed by it, but as long as you're only dealing with a small percentage of your earnings, go for it!

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You're being pulled in multiple directions. People think they know what's best for you, but they don't know you nearly as well as they think they do. You have to decide what would bring you the most enjoyment. Certain friends are becoming mega-successful. You don't begrudge them happiness, but the feelings of resentment you have are showing you something. Perhaps a part of you that's been neglected now needs some tender loving care.
