ARIES (March 21-April 19). Peace is not some distant ideal. You already experience it many times a day. Let those moments eventually take over.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). A choice you are faced with may seem serious but it's not. It's actually as silly as worrying about which side of the bread to butter. Your life will be delicious either way.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You'll dive in, even though you don't know what to do exactly. That's what makes your life exciting.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Someone will tempt you today. You will be like a child reaching for the candy at the checkout counter.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You are almost always passionate about something, but the object of your intense feelings doesn't usually take over your life like it seems to for the next few days.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Consider losing touch with reality for a few private moments. Daydreaming isn't just an indulgence for you - it is a necessary exercise.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). When you are around a certain someone, the stresses of daily life don't feel like pressure at all.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You woke up knowing what you wanted from this day, and that sense of purpose will be with you into the evening.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You will be drawn to artistic (and possibly moody) people, as your own creativity is developing in new ways now.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Be careful with so-called remedies now. The best tactic might be to focus on what's going right instead of trying to fix what's wrong.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You'll hit upon an aspect of your work that seems to be uncharted territory. Perhaps others have discovered this before you, but no one knew how to turn it into an advantage. You'll figure it out.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Some relationships are beautiful because they are so difficult to explain or define. You'll add a chapter to such a relationship today.
TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (Aug. 31). You'll quickly get where you want to go because you see the world in crystal clarity. You'll be praised and awarded in September. Finances improve in November. There's a fortuitous change in your transportation. Loved ones reunite in March. There's a career breakthrough in May. Cancer and Taurus people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 6, 25, 1, 22 and 18.
