Though a rolling stone gathers no moss, the Taurus moon likes the obligations that come with staying put. The proverb suggests that if we're always on the move, we're not in one spot long enough to form attachments. The Taurus moon considers this to be a lonely prospect, as she settles us in for a nice evening connecting with our own roots.
ARIES (March 21-April 19). The boss returns, but this is no time to stiffen up. You'll get more mileage from putting on a clown nose than you will from straightening your tie. Laughter is a radical and effective response to stress.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Someone in your ancestral line told you to only draw inside the lines. This is no help at all. Keeping your imaginative impulses to a minimum only stifles your energy. Draw all over the place. It's OK.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Questioning your place in the professional hierarchy? You don't need a Ph.D. to be competent. You have life experience, and they should give degrees for that. For kicks, make one up and hang it on your office wall.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Avoidance tends to make things bigger than they are. Meet money and relationship dramas with understanding — you want it all, what's the harm in that?
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You're readjusting your gears, so it's no wonder you feel a little creaky. Hard work, healthy eating habits and exercise are the symbolic oils you need to slather all over yourself.
TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (April 18). The love you feel from others bolsters your nerve, even when you face the unknown this year. Next month, believing the best about human nature is your key to success. Your attention to detail attracts the interest of wealthy clients. Relationships are a whirlwind ride through the summer — so much fun! Scorpio and Leo people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 20, 25, 43, 21 and 5.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Mentally replaying a relationship conundrum can be food for thought. Or it can turn into a sanity-consuming monster. Leave the problem for now. Instead focus on the fun energy you'll bring to an upcoming encounter.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Your inhibitions speak out. The backhanded way inhibitions keep their grip is by telling you that without them, you'd be worse off — lies, all lies. Lose one fear now by declaring it gone. See, you're better already.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Someone validates you, and then, on the drop of a dime, they change, chameleon-esque. If you're grounded in who you are, it's only slightly annoying, but if you were seeking his or her approval, it's a bigger deal.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You're probably not thrilled with your current means of making money. If only someone would pay you for your fantastic stage presence and enthusiasm. Hmmm, keep it up, and you just might land a gig.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You're getting better at reading the road map of life. No, not better at avoiding the twists and turns, mind you, but you're chuckling a little louder, assimilating a little deeper.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Your spiritual wares are increasing at the same rate and value as your wackiness. Take some time away from your significant other to contemplate the theme.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You're the needle in the haystack of life. Just finding yourself is monumental. Take a nature walk, and you'll discover that it's not so bad being lost. For flickering moments, you're one with the tree, the ground and the sun.
ASTROLOGICAL TOPICS: Astrology and the Tarot: Libra through Sagittarius
Each sign of the zodiac relates to a card in the tarot deck. If you "play" with the cards long enough, you'll find cards and themes repeating over a period of time. Play is the right approach to take — they work best when you're relaxed. LIBRA CARD: A fair, impartial mind is appropriate when you listen to other people's problems or just need to be unbiased. As the old saying goes, don't judge me until you've walked a mile in my shoes. This takes impeccable balance, centeredness and a pull-no-punches truthfulness. The Justice card represents the path of Libra. SCORPIO CARD: When the Death card comes up, it means you're working with the death-renewal cycle; some people say we die a little every day. A little emotional detachment is necessary here, but it isn't uncaring detachment, as anyone who knows a Scorpio can attest! SAGITTARIUS CARD: If you're unable to see the paradox of life, consult a Sagittarius or the Art/Temperance card. You're a multidimensional being. When you get too lopsided in one direction, temper yourself by paying attention to visions and dreams.
CELEBRITY PROFILES: He's the king now, but Conan O'Brien is no stranger to critical reviews. The first three years of "Late Night With Conan O'Brien" drew the equivalent of rotten tomatoes from the industry. Saturn, the critical teacher, touches off O'Brien's moon and Mercury, planets of public response and communication, respectively. The lean years are behind him. O'Brien has matured into the reigning master of late night.

|  | 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!
