Everyone needs money, honey. Thank heavens for the Taurus new moon, replenishing our bank accounts with green bills and renewing the earth with green leaves. If nature has a coin, it must be the beauty of springtime. Our earthly coin is our industriousness, our ability to turn raw inspiration into something we can hold.
ARIES (March 21-April 19). This is your day to spin straw into gold. Move quickly to make it happen. You may doubt yourself. Boldly doubt the doubt, and rush forward to embrace your riches.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Stellar business sense is just good old-fashioned common sense to you. There's a formula to it: Plant a seed and give it everything it needs to grow. What will you plant today? Go ahead, make one more birthday wish.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). The future is a distant what-if. The past is behind you. The only thing you can count on is right now. Now is a reliable space and time to ground yourself, especially if things feel uncertain.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Goal setting isn't just for millionaire wannabes. It's for anyone who wants to be in a different spot, whether one year or five years from now. In images or words, paint your ideal world on paper. Then take one step.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Leadership brings responsibility. When something goes wrong, there's no fairy godmother to make it all better. You're accountable for all of it, and that doesn't scare you one iota. This is your moment in the sun.
TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (May 16). New beginnings spring up like pea shoots in all areas of your life this year. In love, career and family, you're no longer naming what-ifs; you're naming the potential of what is. Your partner is stymied over the next six weeks, so be patient. Take a vacation in July. Your creative contributions are recognized in August. Leo and Pisces people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 14, 21, 8, 40 and 4.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Some people hike the Himalayas to find themselves. Others discover that wherever they go, there they are. Repositioning your physical body opens your spiritual body.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). There's a thin line between love and hate because the underlying feeling is passion. It starts wars and makes peace. You're attracting this passion into your life now.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Do a ritual to encourage the relationship love gods and goddesses today. Singles: Write a love letter to your ideal partner. Couples: Renew your commitment to be best friends.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). So, you've been meaning to get a checkup, change your diet and take your vitamins, but haven't had the time? You find your vitality in stolen moments of stretching and exercise.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Celebrate meeting a deadline at work or finally mastering your to-do list. Buy some fresh flowers. Enjoy a nice meal. Revel in the simple pleasures that make it all worthwhile.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You're tuning your nurture instinct, learning the difference between being a helpful adviser and a control freak. When you loosen up a bit, people don't mind doing exactly what you ask them to do.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Kids who put their hands on everything know that touch has its own language. You could fill a diary with the myriad delicious sensations and observations you have now.
ASTROLOGICAL QUESTIONS: "My birthday is Jan. 19, 1980. Back in February, my ex broke up with me. Her birthday is Aug. 6, 1984. We'd only been together for about three months, and she became pregnant about a month into the relationship. She's still extremely bitter toward me, as things spiraled downward really quickly toward the end of the relationship. My question to you is: Will her bitterness toward me ever end, and will we be able to have a friendly co-parenthood?"
In a word, yes. You know you chose a very fiery woman who is temperamentally different from you. You're reasonable, she's dramatic — in fact, sometimes your reasonableness actually enflames her drama. I can see that your affair happened suddenly — her sexy Mars in Scorpio is directly on your "I'm mesmerized" Uranus, so this relationship was prematurely coasting on love chemicals before you got to know each other.
Your challenge is to back off when she pushes — and she will. You've got the mark of an excellent father. It'll be a joy for you to parent your child. And when she sees how good you are at this, your parental love will temper her strong defenses.
CELEBRITY PROFILES: Does Janet Jackson really feel 20 years old, as the title of her last album suggests? Her chart is loaded with the two first signs of the zodiac, Aries and Taurus. Too much Taurus can weigh a gal down with depression and sluggish metabolism, but with her snappy moon and Venus in energetic Aries, she motivates right out of a stick-in-the-mud Taurus rut. A diet book from Jackson would be fab!

|  | 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!
