When a person with self-esteem esteems you, it's easy to believe. Consistency of character assures you're getting the real deal. As retrograde Venus circulates the desire for admiration, respect and love today, ardent hearts seek the reliable appraisal of Saturn, who dignifies your question with a quality answer.
ARIES (March 21-April 19). You're courteous, concise and direct. There are those who want more from you, and you consciously construct barriers. Everyone has a limit, and you're enforcing yours now.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Something you feel awkward about won't get much notice at all. Sweet liberation! The situation begs the question: What would you do if no one were looking?
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Insomnia is good for productivity. Personal pain is good for creativity. There's a silver lining in every cloud, and you find it, focus on it and let it bathe your world in a lovely kind of light.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). You're a top priority. A partner's attention confirms this. It's the beginning of a blissful chapter in which you trust another person enough to fall deeply, madly in love.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). It's time to take an environmental inventory. Get out a pad of paper, and do a walk-through of your living space. You won't have any trouble at all filling a couple of pages with complaints and ideas to make things better.
TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (Aug. 13). It's a year of opening your heart. You bring your love to new tasks -- love calls forward the best in you and therefore brings the best. Next month, you unravel a tough problem. Winning partnerships are formed in October. January gives you the funding for a project you've long wanted to do. Cancer and Virgo people are your confidantes. Your lucky numbers are: 6, 15, 40, 22 and 19.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Love has many forms. Sensitive Virgo people have probably noticed their relationships taking another shape, morphing into a new phase, trying on an alternative manner of being.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You're a little tired of having to be "on" all the time. You will enjoy the peace that comes from feeling the pulse of humanity -- without actually talking to a human. Go where you can anonymously observe life.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You'll likely read everything pertinent to your problem and then follow none of it. Still, it's empowering to feel educated. It helps you have confidence when you make an intuitive choice that's right for you.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). If you find yourself wondering, "Is it me, or have I just achieved a new level of greatness?" let that thought develop into a belief that you have indeed achieved a new level of greatness.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). People have strange reactions to your success. Someone may actually be angry with you for making more money than he or she does. For this reason, keep sensitive information close to the vest.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You can't help but draw fans! You're so well thought of now that you may be patted on the back for something you didn't do. This presents a moral dilemma: Should you take credit or not?
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Even if you create barriers for yourself in love, it won't keep others from loving you. Try to be objective, kind to yourself and accepting of your own temporary limits.
ASTROLOGICAL QUESTIONS: "My birthday is Aug. 22, 1954. I've never married and am not really prospering where I live. I've lived in Los Angeles since 1993. ... Is it possible this is not the place for me? I'm a Midwest native, moving here after 14 years in NYC. People always say, "You're so stylish, smart and talented -- why aren't you married or famous?" ... which doesn't really help much. Help!"
Wow, I'm experiencing a rash of e-mails from readers who want to leave L.A.! You're all feeling the unsettled energy of the Virgo/Pisces eclipses, which began emitting powerful impulses to get on with things in July, and will continue through September. While Uranus is in Pisces, this eclipse axis can stimulate sudden upheavals and boldly shocking moves. La-La Land is the city of glamour, big dreams and dashed hope -- the promises are big and so are the disappointments. You need to draw your expectations down to scale. And "somewhere else" ... you're easily uprooted by that shimmering allure. Have you heard the saying "no matter where you go, there you are"? As the summer progresses, you'll slim down your focus, decide what you can and can't live without and make an effort to move forward with what you've got. By all accounts, a lot!
CELEBRITY PROFILES: Is athleticism an art form? Sure, Leos have the incredible stamina and strength of an athlete, as record-holding champion tennis player Pete Sampras proved, but on-court grace and stylistic signature volleys also please crowds. Mars in Aquarius places dynamic tension on his sun, making Sampras highly competitive. To play to win, he's undoubtedly pushed his strong body very hard.

|  | 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!
