Venus dons her nursemaid outfit as she enters Cancer today. Venus practices (SET ITAL) cura (END ITAL), the Latin word for care of the soul. We give this to each other with our attention, devotion and unconditional love. Pour a cup of tea for a friend, and pull up a chair for a compassionate listen.
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Think about adorning your home with the same accoutrements you'd give a loved one. Maybe a new leopard print divan or chintz curtains, depending on your taste.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). It's as though someone gave you jasmine-scented oxygen and you're inhaling life on a whole new level. Breathe in whom and what you encounter with all the relish of a first breath.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You're invigorated and a little loopy, commanding the team with bubbly enthusiasm. Acting with decisiveness inspires the group's confidence in you.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Some associate the moon with madness, others romance. It drives humans wild and causes oceans to swell. Your beauty has the magnetic power of the moon today. How heavenly.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). A partnership changes the way you look at yourself, but that's nothing to be afraid of. It's delightful, and it's what you've wanted. Blending the best in each other is thrilling synergy.
TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (May 8). This year will be unlike any other! Expect world-class breakthroughs and plenty of support for your ideas — spend the next eight weeks communicating them. If looking, career changes come together in August. You'll find romance at ordinary spots just around the corner. Cancer people are fabulous; Pisces people, arguably passionate. Your lucky numbers are: 10, 3, 31, 35 and 41.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Stubbornness isn't a liability when it's called persistence. Artists persistently plug away at their craft, even when it feels like trying to squeeze blood from a turnip. Keep on plugging.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Learn to relax, you busy butterfly! Instead of spreading yourself too thin, concentrate on one task and one person at a time. Your intensity of focus will produce impressive results.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Just when things were getting too heavy, you discovered that you can create more upward force by rebalancing the weighty stuff with the light stuff. Buoyancy is a virtue.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Practice makes perfect, and you're getting to a spot where what you do well happens so naturally, you're doing it in your sleep. The reward for having been there, done that is the way it makes you feel.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You're entering a month-long period in your relationship where your wish is their command. There are those who want to — no, live to — make you happy. Find them.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). A partner sends a surprise to your checking account. Good. You're burning through money faster than you can make it. Distinguish between the things you can keep and the things that float through your fingers.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You know those come-hither looks you've been throwing to that adorable someone? They've noticed all along. You can bat your eyes innocently as if to say, "Who, me?" but the jig is up.
ASTROLOGICAL TOPIC: Venus enters Cancer:
The Love Therapist
Venus in Cancer is a love therapist, and you submit to her the way a patient presents her soul for healing. She doesn't push away your experience or try to change you, because she loves all of you unconditionally. She patiently listens to your experience and allows it to reveal the soul message. Soul is hard to define, but you can feel soul in a song on the radio — the longing in a love song or the sadness in the blues. Feeling is the key to finding soulful love. When we open our emotional antennae to our partner and feel their behavior, anxieties or moodiness, our souls touch. When this tenderness moves between us, so does a ray of understanding. Venus in Cancer knows that soul brings depth, personal substance and value to everything we do in life, including our love bonds, but we only "get it" by giving our time and attention to each other. Without a soul listener, we suffer from soul-sickness symptoms: We overeat, we cry easily. The soul's language is symbols, dreams, symptoms and forgotten urges.
CELEBRITY PROFILES: Billy Joel fans don't just hear a great performer. They hear someone who speaks to them on a personal level. His moon and Neptune join in harmonious Libra, the mark of a musician who connects beautifully with a crowd. That Libra moon makes Joel's songs personal and relatable. Why is it so easy for a Billy Joel song to stay stuck in our mind? Neptune haunts us with a melody that lasts forever.

|  | 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!
