It's human nature to cater behavior to the company one is with: When in Rome ... But in light of recent planetary arrangements, it's simply too powerful a time to fight your natural resonance. On the eve of the new moon, it's lucky to feel energized even if others are muted, and it's favorable to be impassioned among the mostly mild.
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Everyone behaves best when people are watching, but the true test of self-love is how you treat yourself when no one else is around. Take the time to feed yourself a picture-perfect meal (instead of eating over the sink).
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You view life from the top of the world -- as though you have an endless supply of time, love and money to lavish on your every whim. Your generosity of spirit attracts people who actually do have quite a lot of all of the above.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Your friends pitch in to help you with a request -- and if you ask at the right time (when there is nothing competing for their attention), you only have to ask once.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). You'll have the choice to be inclusive or exclusive. The former is much more fun. Someone a wee bit strange makes a peppy addition to your crowd, nonetheless.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). A trial-and-error process labors on. You can hardly wait to advance to a trial-and-correct process, or maybe no trial at all followed by total success. With a few small changes in your approach, you'll soon be there.
TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (May 25). You're filled with bravery this year -- it's as though there is heroic blood pulsing through your veins. Because of your fiercely strong outlook, problems shrink away from you. Maybe life was meant to be this easy! Love embraces you in June. Financial options are many in July. Sagittarius and Pisces people are particularly inspired by you. Your lucky numbers are: 39, 20, 52, 1 and 5.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You'll be amazingly lucky when you simply say less. Your silence will be so much more than the absence of words. It will swirl around you like a shimmering shroud of intrigue or support you like a silk suit of confidence.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You're giving and giving, and you want nothing in return. Well, almost nothing. You'd actually appreciate it very much if the recipient of your kindness was exceedingly grateful. Is that so much to ask?
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). No matter how you train someone to take your place, it's not totally possible. Some things you still must do yourself. Knowing what those things are will bring happy results today.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You're feeling protective -- aware of what you have and ready to do what is necessary to keep it. Exercise caution around new people, filtering out the potentially dangerous and/or annoying ones.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). The stars suggest that your support system is due for a tune-up. Either have a talk with existing "members," telling them how you'd like to be helped, or go out and make new friends to add to the team.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Wonderful accomplishments can come from partners who don't always agree. Tonight, even the worst of enemies have the potential to join together peaceably and possibly make an auspicious deal.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). The workload is intense. It's all about pacing yourself today. Your journey will be rather pleasant if you: 1) slow down, 2) bring your music, and 3) take a break every hour and a half.
ASTROLOGICAL QUESTIONS: "I am a 22-year-old girl who has never been in love or had a relationship. I am friendly, cute and intelligent. I am an Aries, and true to my horoscope, I fall for people really quickly. I wonder if love is in the forecast this year? Singlehood comes with its own trials and lessons, but I would like someone to be with."
I'm feeling that your parents still have a pretty significant ruling over your love life, if not in a real way, then in an imagined way. It's as though you are still living by the rules you were given at the age of 16. You may be afraid to fall in love because you perceive that your parents would disapprove of you — that you would lose their love in exchange for the love of a suitor. So, your personal "work" this year involves identifying your beliefs about the risks of falling in love and eliminating those blocks. This can be done through an open conversation with your parents or by writing a letter to your parents (that you will never send), telling them that you're ready to grow up and experience romance, and requesting that they love you unconditionally as you own this part of your human development. Once you handle your subconscious concerns, I see you dating someone new as early as June 15.

|  | 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!
