The Sagittarius moon always bodes well for those traveling on long journeys. But the lunar vibes aren't wasted for the rest of us staying home this weekend. We can at least give a thought to the long, winding road of life that has led us to the fascinating place we presently inhabit. Tonight, hold the hand of a fellow traveler.
ARIES (March 21-April 19). You're coming to one of life's crucial intersections. The faint whiff of danger in the air is, of course, irresistible to you as you recognize the array of possible outcomes. Take this day to calm and center yourself.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You'll be put in charge because you see things others don't. What is obvious to you is unclear to others. Take your time in explaining what you know. Your audience is receptive.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Don't miss the chance to commit inspired folly, to weave an intricate and beautiful mistake, or to make a grand and bad impression. The universe is conspiring to loosen and lighten you up — and doing a great job!
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Truth is relative. The story you're telling yourself is one version, but you can change the words and tell a more powerful story, too. Be flexible. The first way you think of isn't the only way to go.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Moments of perfection are the gleaming jewels of your day, for which you're willing to sacrifice many hours of effort. It's so worth your while. Once you know how to get there, you'll return without so much trouble.
TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (Feb. 11). It's a bountiful year. This month, good things happen in your personal life. You've the confidence to ask for what you need at work, too. Financial good luck is featured in April. Embark on domestic improvements or move to a new house in June. Marriage months are June and September. You're cosmically connected to Virgo and Aries people. Your lucky numbers are: 40, 22, 15, 39 and 5.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Your social skills are fine and lucky assets. You'll teach others by lending your superb quality of attention — really listening instead of merely waiting for your turn to speak.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Tomorrow, when people ask how your weekend was, you'll mostly remember the thing that happens this afternoon — a perfect little metaphor for your current state of mind.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Loved ones who aren't happy will set the resonance of the universe entirely off key. You have the power to make it right again, and doing so brings you great joy.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). There's a right way to do things, and there's another right way, and still another right way. So be as unconventional as you want to be. Your eccentricities are darling.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Intellectual pursuits draw you in. Your well-articulated arguments will actually make things happen around you, so speak up. Bold choices bring bold results.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You're tenacious. You push through this period of frustration in order to get to the "aha!" on the other side. In love, be reserved. There are twists in the plot. Wait to react. Think it through.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You're blowing things out of proportion, and that's half the fun. Let your creativity loose. Tonight, nothing is more important than showing up when your people would like you to be there.
FORECAST FOR THE WEEK AHEAD:
The Sagittarius moon at the top of the week is a restless character who keeps peeking over the fence to see how much greener the grass is there.
Well, the answer is not much. Your best bet is to tend to your own yard and let others do the same. Mercury's retrograde on the 13th is bent on mixing things up for Valentine's Day, but in most cases it only serves to make romance deliciously tension-filled.
Miscommunication produces mystery. Being unsure of how you're coming across can be comically endearing. This is the stuff chick flicks are made of.
So, as much as Mercury the trickster would like to wreak havoc on the holiday, he only has time to whip up the kind of minor offenses that are later looked back on as adorable. Valentine's Day comes on a classic Capricorn moon, which bodes well for traditional observances of this holiday of the heart. It's the chocolates and lace, dinner and violins, velvet and diamonds that send the message best. Many will be proposed to on Valentine's Day in an oh-so-cinematic (if not a bit cliched) manner. With this in mind, watch out when you're eating the souffle — it just might have a ring in it.
CELEBRITY PROFILES: Jennifer Aniston was born under the sign of friends — Aquarius. She's had her share of heartache over the last two years, and even more than her share of media involvement in her personal life! But what she hasn't had enough of is sane and stable love. Aquarius women find that their best companions are friends who grow into lovers, instead of the other way around.

|  | We're not that bright, even though in our own little world, we're geniuses. We like 80s hair bands and one-hit wonders, but among us we have respectable tastes, too. Metallica, Iron Maiden, U2. Pursuit of all things trivial is a lifestyle, not just a game. We like some sports, love other sports, and can find something to say about anything. We watch TV and movies and we've read a book or two, even a few classics (Yes, Classic Comics count!)

|  | What is up FoCo?
I am a recent college graduate of Minnesota State University Moorhead. After recieving my B.A. in English and Mass Communications this past August I moved down to Colorado.
I enjoy long walks on the beach, candlelight dinners, and heavy metal. My hobbies include reading and writing, music, movies, and getting drunk. Some of my favorite contemporary authors include Bret Easton Ellis, Chuck Palahniuk, and Kurt Vonnegut. My top movies are anything directed by Kubrick. I enjoy listening to anything that rocks.
Right now I am just trying to get to know Colorado and FoCo better. Mostly in order to find the best drink specials on each day that ends in Y. So if you know where I can get a cheap drunk on, let me know!
