When the week starts with a Pisces moon and ends with an Aries moon, it prompts the question: Is it Friday or Monday? TGIF! However, the Aries moon plays the starter and finisher -- finishing what fell through the cracks this week before the holiday weekend begins, even as new projects pop up. We're ready for next week, too!
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Part of being persistent is knowing how to close your mind tightly against discouraging influences. Of course, this is much easier to do when you're not in the vicinity of people who are known to drag you down.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Someone who likes you may not like the other people who like you. This is apparent when everyone shows up in the same room. Talk about awkward. But people fighting over you can also be a nice problem to have.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). When you can't see the way, shed more light on the situation. Who are the great thinkers in your life? Invite them to illuminate your problem with their mind power. Three heads are better than one.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Before you get to work, get clear about the difference your effort will make. This is the key to generating plenty of energy instead of frittering energy away and burning out.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Do you find it hard to be good now? Maybe being good isn't a compelling enough goal. Henry David Thoreau said, "Aim above morality. Be not simply good; be good for something."
TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (AUGUST 31). This year shows you expanding in magnificent ways. It turns out you are more capable than you ever thought. Learn from the best in September. Some of the money you earn in the fall will be well invested in a July dream. A bond that you thought was broken gets another chance for healing in 2008. Libra and Taurus adore you. Your lucky numbers are 20, 13, 22, 29 and 16.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Ever notice the way household tasks seem to take no time at all when they are done by someone else? Your perception of a job is unique. Anyone who hasn't done the job won't quite understand.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). What you thought was like a wall between you and your object of desire is really more like a trick door. Find the lever and the whole thing will turn on its axis to give you full access.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Life seems to be frozen while you wait for the paycheck, answer, or right person to show up. Quick, change the rules so you can stop waiting! Be as creative as possible with your in-between time.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). It's your lucky shopping day! Whether itís a weekís worth of groceries or a computer, youíll be able to aptly assess your needs and invest just the right amount.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You're in a mood to get a little crazy and out-of-line. Gemini is fun to have along if you're in the mood for company. You may want to bring a camera -- on the other hand, you may not. Why invite blackmail?
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). What you're running from may not be all that different from what you're running to. It's a good day to stand still, look forward and backward and reconsider the chase.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You keep falling apart and getting put back together again. It takes strength to let go -- and also to reconstruct. That you're willing to do it means that you're really living life to the fullest.
WEEKEND LOVE FORECAST: ARIES: Step back or move forward. Of either direction, love only thrives when itís moving. TAURUS: Your relaxed attitude makes your relationships sweeter. GEMINI: Name the unwritten responsibilities in your partnership. Agreements can be changed when you identify them. CANCER: A stop sign is less a sign to stop, and more one to look, listen and notice what people around you are saying. LEO: A relationship anchors you and gives you wings -- and the freedom and security to invest more fully in you. VIRGO: When choosing between your interests or anotherís, itís no contest. You give him or her the shirt off your back. LIBRA: Judgment is only good when you have all the facts straight. Wait for the true story to emerge. SCORPIO: You donít need to spend hours convincing someone -- he or she shares the same heartfelt wish. SAGITTARIUS: Present a complaint with a solution and your particular particularity is addressed. CAPRICORN: Refuse to play the critic and relationship roles shift dramatically. AQUARIUS: A partner can only do so much -- youíre learning to rely on you. PISCES: Maybe expecting one person to meet all your relationship needs isnít reasonable -- hey, eight out of 10 ainít bad!
COUPLE OF THE WEEKEND: When Archer points his bow toward the Milky Way, the Virgin lays her hand over his for precision of aim. When they decide to trust one another and work together, Sagittarius and Virgo are a stellar team with complementary strengths. Every explorer needs a detailed map, and enchanting mapmaker Virgo is fascinated by the question, "In what corner of the universe should we dance next?"

|  | 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!
