The Virgo moon's so modest. She won't take credit for anything — from rescuing pets to bringing soup to sick friends to volunteering to work the Sunday church potluck. Why is she so good? Maybe because she gets a charge from improving the world. So will you under this moon. It's no effort at all because giving feels better than not giving.
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Organization isn't an option; it's a requirement. Clear your mental clutter by writing it down, following up on missing pieces of mail and making doctor's appointments. What you put off today only snowballs by week's end.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You're feeling sociable and sassy. Share the vibes. Offer reassurance to your loved ones. Cheerlead. Give them a pat on the back. You gain rapport, and that helps you in the future, too.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). A co-worker's negativity rides your last nerve. Your neutral behavior is giving him or her permission to dump all over you. Offering solutions is no longer an option. And if you're not part of the solution, you're part of the problem.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). People-watching gives you more insight into human behavior than a psychology book. They're looking for the same things you are: love, validation and power. The silent observer still influences the observed.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You don't like coming off as the heavy. But when you think someone's giving you the run around, you don't see another option. You've sympathized with their consternation before. It's time to exercise your executive power.
TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (May 25). You'll clear the pathway to joy by weeding out rusty beliefs that mire you mentally. Align yourself with understanding instead of judgment, and you experience limitless happiness. Grow your income in June by looking to backburner ideas. You're in constant motion in sociable, romantic August. Libra and Cancer people light up your life. Your lucky numbers are: 13, 23, 19, 41 and 8.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You're called on for your powerful "break it down" skills. No one can set 'em straight like a Virgo. There are more holes to fill in than there are in Swiss cheese, but you find all the missing pieces.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Learning is not memorization, but rather, involvement with life. Memorize and you'll forget. Get involved and you'll understand. Bring others in on it. Sagittarius and Pisces people excel under your tutelage.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). The only people who really want advice are the ones who pay for it. The rest just need a gentle listener. You can do that. Your heart is open and nonjudgmental.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). The details of how or why you're getting a job done aren't important. Those you report to only care that you get it done in a timely manner. No explanation is necessary. The result says it all.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Worry about the polish a project needs later. Right now is about dealing with the nuts and bolts of the endeavor. If your plan was too ambitious, cut it down to a more manageable size.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). What's said in jest comes off as critical. You didn't mean for it to sound the way it did, but it did. Explaining yourself can be just as fraught with trickery. Instead, receive feedback with appreciation.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). If you're looking for a fault or weakness in someone, you'll certainly find it. But you can as easily look for an admirable quality or strength of character and praise that. As a result, you'll be embraced.
WEEKEND LOVE FORECAST:
ARIES: Channel your high energy into cementing partnership agreements. Life's a box of chocolates made sweeter by sharing.
TAURUS: Love deserves to be fussed over, talked about and discussed. Baby your relationship with the attention it wants.
GEMINI: Don't let someone else's response to you control yours. There's no dignity in reacting.
CANCER: Fill your pleasure palace with comfortable necessities. Everyone appreciates your homemade artistry.
LEO: Turn back the hands of time by reliving a memory. Youth isn't for the young — it's for those who love with abandon.
VIRGO: Exchange revealing stories with a loved one, even if it's a bit embarrassing. Closeness ensues.
LIBRA: Commitment is an awesome responsibility, and you're up for all of it.
SCORPIO: Give your relationship a breath of fresh air by taking it on the road.
SAGITTARIUS: You understand the power of two because things happen to you together that don't usually happen to you when you're alone.
CAPRICORN: Understanding happens in the moment when you least expect it and most need it.
AQUARIUS: Your heart hears what your ears don't.
PISCES: There's nothing wrong with being a jumble of needs and desires. It makes you human.
COUPLE OF THE WEEKEND: Virgo wrote the book on being aloof. But for Aries, the cold shoulder doesn't constitute a rejection. Instead, Aries sees this as a signal: "Game on!" Virgo does well to stay elusive for as long as possible, as it's always thrilling for Aries to be in chase mode. When this passionate couple finally does alight, as they are likely to this weekend, the fire sign Aries receives Virgo's undying flame of devotion.

|  | 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!
