Can love thrive under the burdens and responsibilities placed upon her? For Venus and Saturn's rendezvous in Leo, love is exclusivity, the commitment to hold a loving heart through the promise and trials of love. Love without obligation is passion that cools over time, and obligation without love is empty.
ARIES (March 21-April 19). This is no comic book -- there are no bad guys or good guys, nor will there be a winner or loser. It's real life in all its fantastic complexity. Keep an open mind.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). If you're looking for quantifiable evidence that what you think is happening in your life is indeed happening, you probably won't get it. But this helps to build your faith muscle. Trust your perception.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You're intriguing, and you can't help but attract attention. Loved ones may get snoopy or be able to read you like never before. To stay elusive, you'll have to work hard at keeping your own secrets.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). The good news is that you fix a problem. The bad news is the same -- what now? Let go of your trepidation, and take a step into the big scary unknown.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You enjoy moments of being completely in control. Even when you realize that the idea of control is mostly illusory, it's a wonderful feeling. And the more you feel this way, the more powerful you become.
TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (July 1). Your happiness and your ability to influence your surroundings are in direct correlation this year. Personal power can be used to beautify the world, and that's what you do. You provide what's needed in August and are paid well for this. A funny coincidence in September is your entree to a new circle. Pisces and Leo people are enthusiastic supporters. Your lucky numbers are: 9, 20, 55, 7 and 13.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You never know how much you can handle until you throw yourself into the middle of a crazy project. Unresolved details whirl around you. You pluck them out of the air one by one and work your magic. This is fun.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Mundane tasks come to an abrupt end as you're called to duty. If this were a Western, you'd fling yourself up on your horse and ride madly off. Alas, you'll probably have to think of an equally dramatic exit, sans horse.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You're in a skeptical mood. Carry your good fortune charm around with you anyway. It'll bring you luck whether you believe it will or not. And so, by the way, will a Leo person.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Keep five paces away from the person with the bad attitude. Such things are catching. But luckily, so is a good attitude. Spread your optimism to those who seem open to it.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Enjoy the synchronistic signs that life is flowing in your favor. Strangers smile. Parking places open up at the correct time. A lost object comes back to you in an unusual way.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Your stellar gift today is impulse control. When someone tries to get a reaction out of you, you resist the reaction and think of your many options. There are more than you can count.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You're honing your style and refining your sense of class. Keep asking yourself, how can I be more considerate? More gracious? Nobility isn't a birthright; it's an action.
FORECAST FOR THE WEEK AHEAD: As Venus joins Saturn in Leo this Independence Day week, it's easy to love the relationships that nourish us, but they still can read "handle with care." It's a question of commitment. Are we willing to go all the way for our creative and love endeavors, to bare our hearts? On a soul level, we understand that time spent and promises made wholeheartedly to whom and what we love is the best soul food going. Yet relationships can make big demands -- and sometimes we're the ones making them! The beauty of this summer is that everyone's waking up to their creative potential, which makes everyone's heart lighter. Because we know we can't get where we're going alone, digging a little deeper for those we love is the spirit of this Independence Day week. It's possible to see everyone in our life as a helper, especially the difficult ones -- they're coaching us to become our very best. The delight is, honing our excellence amps our ability to be there for the people who need us most. And we're happy to need them, too. As Barbra Streisand sang, "People who need people are the luckiest people in the world."
CELEBRITY PROFILES: Liv Tyler is a romantic beauty. With Venus and Mars in Taurus, and her moon in Capricorn, she characterizes the roles she plays with the Botticelli sensuality typical of an earthy goddess, which makes her the perfect choice for her next role as the love interest of "The Hulk," who is a green creature himself. For all that earth, her career trajectory is hard-earned and long-lived. Tyler has staying power.

|  | 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!
