Oh, how the Aries moon appreciates a strategy — with follow-through to boot! In an overnight meeting between Mercury and Mars, intelligence and action came together in a swift flurry of mind over matter, and plans finally gelled. You can take this decisive energy into your own hands by acting on that burning piece of information, pronto.
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Optimistic thoughts are, at best, transformative. At worst, wrong — in an innocuous kind of way. On the other hand, there is no benefit that will come from being pessimistic.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). No need to risk the adventure alone. The heroes have gone before you. They've already figured out the labyrinth. You only need to follow the golden thread of their path.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You get a charge out of helping others. But be careful not to be too accessible or you're not really helping, but enabling. Let others ask for what they need before you offer it.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Your environment has even more impact than usual on your psyche now. Go where you're likely to be inspired by genius. You see your own potential in brilliant works.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). This is the final act of a family drama — the situation is resolved, and all players can take a curtain call. Soon you may actually find yourself once again liking those crazy people to whom you're related.
TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (Aug. 3). You're strong this year. Maximize the potential of your body, mind and spirit through physical exertion. With a little creativity, you delight people who are notoriously hard to please — it pays handsomely. January is romantic. A fantastic break keeps March interesting. You have a special connection to Libra and Taurus people. Your lucky numbers are: 9, 20, 1, 13 and 23.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You have nothing against rest. After all, it's good to relax and enjoy yourself. It just so happens that you find a way of doing this that turns out to be extremely productive, as well.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). There's nothing to prove. Those who know you're talented will never think otherwise. And those who don't get you might not ever. Tonight, love is lazing around the house together.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Economic circumstances affect what you do, but they don't affect how you feel. Whatever the dollar amount in your pocket, you feel absolutely glorious.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). It's not about your boss, colleagues or customers anymore. It's about you. What changes must you make in order to bring about your own personal happiness at work?
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Your best, your opinion, is only a start. You're still striving to find, achieve or do something beyond the normal range of human experience — a noble cause that will eventually be realized.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You come across as a fantastically capable person. So the workload is heaped onto you. Let down your guard. Your lack of defenses inspires someone to come forward and help you.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). A project seems to be taking over your life, but at least it's a healthy obsession. Loved ones understand if you're less than attentive, as long as you make it up to them this weekend.
WEEKEND LOVE FORECAST:
- ARIES: When your sweetie stubs a toe, overrule defensiveness (It's not my fault!) with love.
- TAURUS: When you two act as a unified front, you become a unified front.
- GEMINI: You finally hear what the heart needs to hear when you find the ears to listen.
- CANCER: You proudly show off what you have, but your truer pleasure is having someone for whom to show off.
- LEO: You're feeling irreverently youthful, maybe even mischievous. Whoop it up.
- VIRGO: You can insist that love only come in a certain shape or color, but you end up accepting it as it comes. And that's good enough.
- LIBRA: You may not think you have anything left to give, but you do.
- SCORPIO: There's great beauty in your ability to appreciate your partner's accomplishments better than you do your own.
- SAGITTARIUS: An alliance helps you glide over a stubborn hurdle and courageously enter new territory.
- CAPRICORN: Only by bearing your heart will you ever really know your heart.
- AQUARIUS: A message of love is delivered, and you take it seriously — more or less.
- PISCES: Instead of piling too much need onto your relationship, make one practical, necessary move on your own.
COUPLE OF THE WEEKEND: With Venus moving retrograde in Virgo, many Virgos are feeling finicky. Pisceans are encountering their own quirky complications! As Venus re-enters Leo this week, irritations subside. There's a riveting getting-to-know-one-another period over the next month, even if the couple in question has been an item for years. The sun shines romance rays on both signs in October.

|  | 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!
