Humans need contact. We need it almost as much as we need water. This is an important thing to remember when both the sun and the moon are in Aquarius, the sign of the water bearer. Being friendly and inclusive — even to the hermits, grumps and jerks — is a gesture that has far-reaching benefits for humankind.
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Practicing a ritual puts you in harmony with your surroundings. An ordinary ritual, such as jogging, is your vehicle for crossing from one plane of perception to another.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Deciding to begin again isn't the same as actually starting over. You need a plan, and this is your best day to come up with a workable one. For extra luck, involve a Virgo person.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Unhappy with work? Don't wait to be invited to a new situation. Enter on your own accord. Let your interest guide you forward. Volunteer your services. You'll soon be engaged in exactly what you want to be doing.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). You meet deadlines and take care of business. This puts you in the mood to celebrate tonight. As far as your love life goes, the more selective you are, the more you'll enjoy dating.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You're mixing with an upscale crowd. Successful friends can be quite motivating. Still, you must grab success in your own way — only then will you be satisfied and proud of your achievement.
TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (Feb. 16). You do what you please and, as a result, have one of your most satisfying years to date! Educate yourself through March — what you learn could make you rich! New influences waltz into your life in April, and for singles, one of these attractive people could be true love. You have a fantastic connection with Gemini and Pisces people. Your lucky numbers are: 50, 20, 24, 39 and 14.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Your confidence more than makes up for your lack of experience in a particular area. Presentations go brilliantly. Also, you could hit the jackpot by making a sale.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). What's done is done. Turn from the past, preferably with an attitudinal snap in the air, and get on with being the person you've always wanted to be. A relative's advice is helpful.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You're gearing up for a huge challenge. But is it too huge? Is this just crazy? Absolutely not! Crazy is when you don't rise to the occasion while the minutes of your life tick away.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You'll be enticed into the strangest situation. Thank goodness there are persuasive people around you. Later, you'll look back and realize you wouldn't have missed it for the world.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Your astral gift du jour is eloquent boldness! You're capitalizing on your fortunate social and political status — exercising your right of free expression. You could even get some applause.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Though you have nothing against a well-planned day, this isn't it. You're caught up in the chaos and making the most of whimsical, unforeseen opportunity. You're blowing in the wind!
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). The words "friend," "free" and "Friday" all derive from the same root — a Germanic word, "fri," meaning love. The stars align to suggest that this is your day to give your heart freely to friendship or romance.
WEEKEND LOVE FORECAST: Your relationships bloom if you're open to change.
ARIES: Speak from the heart; your sweetie longs to hear it.
TAURUS: Having the satisfaction of an ex-love coming back isn't as sweet as you thought it'd be.
GEMINI: Love thrives in a different environment. Change it up.
CANCER: You probably won't even notice that person who is fixated on you.
LEO: Romantically, you might feel like you're in a rut. It's time for an energizing flirtation! You've a special connection with Pisces.
VIRGO: You've enough enthusiasm for two people, which is a good thing since your partner might be dragging.
SCORPIO: Find someone who already fits your qualifications; otherwise, you wind up trying to mold someone to fit your ideal, which is so exhausting!
SAGITTARIUS: You're not exactly in an easy-to-please mood.
CAPRICORN: Low on faith? It's not so wrong to ask for proof once in a while.
AQUARIUS: You're attractive and popular, and you know how to use it.
PISCES: Prepare to pursue and be pursued.
COUPLE OF THE WEEKEND: Aquarius and Libra are two peas in a pod — air sign intellectuals with high standards and even higher expectations of each other. But at the same time, these two can be very easygoing when romance doesn't go as planned. It's a good thing, too, because this weekend will be anything but predictable. One thing leads to another, and by the end of it, they could even be married in Vegas!

|  | 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!)
We call it insight, you call it what you will. | |

|  | 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!
