Aristotle did it. You do it when you see a tragic movie or play. Dramatic catharsis is a handy way to purge emotional conflict, to sync up inner and outer realities that don't mesh. As the trigger-haired Aries moon touches the emotional Cancer sun, going to extremes might bring you back to balance. So make like the Greeks and cathart!
ARIES (March 21-April 19). All moments aren't created equal. Heightened experiences linger in the mind longer than normal experiences. A wave of artistry washes over you. Use it to create a shared, theatrical moment.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You've fallen under someone's spell. You're vulnerable to their suggestion. There's nothing wrong with letting down your guard, as long as you realize you're doing it.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You're driven to possess the elusive. This requires you to be clever, and that's what makes it fun. If you could easily have it, you wouldn't want it. Your imagination works double time to figure out a way.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Love gravitates to those with open minds and optimistic outlooks. To enhance your own love life, be receptive to new experiences and ditch a pessimistic point of view.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). People with outstanding character have no problem assuming responsibility. They're the people you want around you now. You expect a lot, which is good, because you'll get what you expect.
TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (July 7). Start your magical year off by letting go of a draining belief, person or responsibility. There's no time to waste! A life-changing business opportunity at the end of this month requires you to move quickly. Finances keep getting better. Love and travel open up worlds to you this winter. Scorpio and Pisces people are enthusiastic supporters. Your lucky numbers are: 9, 20, 44, 11 and 16.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Many of your valuable contributions to a relationship have gone unacknowledged -- until now. When people make a fuss over you, don't just allow it; enjoy it!
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). When the things you want still seem out of your hands, remember: Power is just directed energy. Take time to yourself to refocus and rejuvenate. Then try again tonight for what you want.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Your hold on your own tongue may slip. Don't be too hard on yourself. When you see a thing cocked at an arrogant angle, it's only human to want to shoot it down.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). For you, home is a feeling rather than a place. You could land somewhere you've never been before and feel as comfortable as you do on the threshold of your own front door.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). What is valuable isn't always costly. When you desire wisdom, you're able to find it by reading or watching inspiring individuals -- for free. It's like they're talking just to you.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Your natural spontaneity is so attractive, especially to Sagittarius and Leo people. You continue to create excitement by doing whatever strikes your fancy at the moment.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). It's not an indulgence to do what makes your soul sing -- it's a necessity. Explore to your heart's content now. You may find your groove by cooking, playing games or writing.
ASTROLOGY AND FOOD: We all know what you eat affects your vitality. And different folks have different energies. Matching the energy of your solar vitality (sun) to your astrological sign is a great way to give the body, soul and spirit what they need to thrive. Sagittarius: The Archer aims far and wide in life, and the palate is no different. Exotic foods feed the wanderer well. From Ethiopian to Middle Eastern, Russian to Thai, your perfect diet resembles the cafeteria at the United Nations. Food and learning go hand in hand for you, too -- how fun to learn about a foreign place through its food. A taste of another culture broadens your appetite for life. Capricorn: On the farm, the Goat gets away with eating the buttons off a farmer's shirt. Yikes! Like their animal counterpart, Capricorn often thinks they can get away with eating anything. But the mature Goat realizes that certain things don't agree. Listen to the body while you're eating, paying special attention to how a food makes you feel afterward. Some of you tend to make conservative food choices, and you're comfortable with the food you grew up eating. Nothing too different for those Goats. Come back for Aquarius and Pisces!
CELEBRITY PROFILES: Rapper 50 Cent is the real deal. What other rappers sing about, he's experienced. 50 lost his mother and father at age 8, toughening up this tender moon-kid. With Saturn sitting close to his Cancer sun, he was forced into early adulthood, never experiencing the careless joy of youth. Just call 50 a late bloomer. As a dad, he'll get to live the youth he didn't have through his son.

|  | 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!
