The Gemini moon is giddy with friendly chatter. With other planetary influences on the realm of communication, there may be more than the usual weight behind words. What's meant figuratively can be taken literally, and what's meant casually can be interpreted as gospel. Whatever confusion may play out, intention wins in the end.
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Your labor of love is becoming more "labor" than "love." Though it's only the middle of the week, it's as good a time as any to take a break. Doing something different restores your creative juices.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). No one owns you or has ever owned you, though many have rented space in your control booth. The planets help you recognize where you might be giving others the illusion that your decisions should be theirs.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Your social nature allows you to enjoy the company of many different kinds of people today, without staying too long or going too deep with any one association.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Confrontation can make a relationship tighter than ever — the elation of getting back together after the discord is a bonding agent. So if something is bothering you, you may as well say it.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Everything does not have a double meaning -- dozens of meanings is more like it. Get a sense of what's under the surface of a question or request made of you.
TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (Sept. 13). This year sees you in a powerful state. You're content and feel no need to justify or create excuses for your actions. This new level of self-assurance inspires a shift in your close relationships. Glamour and romance overtake you in November. December is a high for your financial picture. You really hit it off with Gemini and Aries people. Your lucky numbers are: 8, 39, 46, 37 and 21.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Someone who is hot and cold in regard to you is actually trying to lure you in. You're more susceptible when knocked off of your emotional balance. Choose how involved you want to get.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). An image of fundamental self-sufficiency is key to winning today's prize. When others think you already have everything you need, they offer you so much more than you could want.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Intuitively, you know the secret magic of shadows. Chase your shadow and it eludes you. Turn your back on it and it follows you. Use this principle to attract a hard-to-reach someone.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Clear instructions can be hard to get now, so your success depends on asking questions. When in doubt, have others spell it out. If you can get it in writing, it's even better.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You're making the rules today, and everyone else has to adjust. Your gentle, calm approach makes your law more palatable to those who resist and fear change in general.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Understanding the role someone plays in your life will illuminate new possible courses of action in dealing with this person. Hint: You already have all the parents you need.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). A powerful creative spirit takes hold. This is well applied to your personal relationships. The time you spend with loved ones will be memorable even a decade from now.
ASTROLOGICAL SPECIAL:
SCORPIO ATTRACTION SECRETS: Every sign has unique talents and abilities they can apply toward attracting the things, people and experiences they want in life. SCORPIO'S attraction power can be summed up in one word: mystery.
It's human nature to try and figure out puzzles. Scorpio provides for this need. Building a mystery, for most, takes creativity, thought and planning. Not for Scorpio. This sign is born an enigma and only needs to sit silently and wait for those who are daring enough to try to figure out the secret. No one will be able to.
Scorpio's secret is like the Mona Lisa's smile — many conjecture, but no one will ever know what momentary amusement or private thought is behind it. And in all likelihood, not even Scorpio could tell you what he or she is trying to hide. "Nothing!" Scorpio protests. In Scorpio's defense, the hiding in question takes no effort, and so Scorpio doesn't even realize he or she is being coy.
Scorpio comes from the point of view that all information is on a need-to-know basis. One who attempts to get close to this sign should prepare to be enchanted by a grand tease.
CELEBRITY PROFILES: Doe-eyed starlet Alexis Bledel is a fine example of the innocent yet intelligent beauty of Virgo women. Bledel's combination of luck ("Gilmore Girls" was one of her first acting auditions), looks and ambition has propelled her to the top of the Hollywood peak. In addition to her grand-scale film career, I see a return to the print world for this former model.

|  | 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!)
We call it insight, you call it what you will. | |

|  | 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!
