Now through July 10, the messenger planet, Mercury, explores Leo. It's a fine time for self-expression. You may even find that you're expressing a "self" you didn't know existed. The more you put across, the more you discover. All you have to do is apply yourself to communicating, and your creativity, complexity and talent spring forth.
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Communication is the secret to your success now, but the even bigger secret is that your words matter little in the equation. It's your tone and attitude that convey exactly what you want out of life.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Chasing happiness is the most certain way to make it run away from you. The stars favor doing nothing at all over putting yourself "out there" just to prove that you want it. If getting calm takes the whole day, it's a day well spent.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You'll be around interesting characters -- the kind of people with whom you shouldn't make a sudden move. Getting your way depends on your ability to match the energy of those around you long enough to have influence.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). The rules don't apply to you. There is no "always" and there is certainly no "never." There's fun to be had on this day of most unusual events. You could redefine yourself in the process.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Giving your unsolicited opinion is not advised. Too bad, because if they would only see things from your vantage, the whole problem would disappear. They won't. Keep it to yourself, and at least you'll still enjoy the view.
TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (JUNE 28). This year, you not only succeed where others have succeeded, but you'll succeed where others have failed! It's your go-with-the-flow philosophy that makes the difference. Education paves the way to big money in November. December features a fantastic purchase! Supportive love roots for you. You're highly compatible with an Aries or a Leo. Your lucky numbers are: 9, 5, 1, 19 and 25.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Most things would be nice to experience at least once. Today brings such an opportunity. You'll be comfortable in the company of one who knows the ropes. Perhaps a Pisces.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). No one has to tell you that all people deserve to be treated as equals -- your sign invented equality. So when you see someone's money buying preferential treatment, you can't help but speak up.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). There you go again, getting carried away. All the best people are incorrigible. You'll attract quite a following if you continue on like this. Maybe you'll even get your very own stalker.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). There're days to be unconventional, and there're days to take your lesson from the collective knowledge pool. This is the latter kind of day. There's a reason "everybody is doing it." Maybe you should, too.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). If you're too analytical, you'll miss the miracle. If you're too literal, you'll miss the joke. The omens suggest you can be supremely open-minded when you make the effort to hold back your skepticism.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You invent your own logic. You've probably already done what the experts declare "impossible!" Remind yourself of this today, as the planets align to help you do it again.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You're hitting those financial obstacles harder than you have to. To see your way around blocks to wealth, stand on the shoulders of a giant. Go to the store, and buy the first financial book that speaks to you.
ASTROLOGICAL QUESTIONS: "I am a 33-year-old Capricorn with a Scorpio ascendant. I have been in a relationship with a Sagittarius for the last three years. He starts to get close and then pulls back. I would like to know if this will ever amount to anything."
As a practical Capricorn, you know that love is as love does. Your Scorpio ascendant leads you to look deeper into the situation though -- Scorpio is all about subtext and hidden meaning. Speaking of this, your wording of this question brings up an interesting topic. What should love "amount" to? The answer (or sum) is in the now moment -- Sagittarius men are that kind of sign. You can tell everything about their past, present and future by looking at little bits of now. Is he courteous now, or does he put his needs first? Is he looking past you instead of looking at you? Do you feel a tug on your heart in his presence, as though there is something unfinished that needs to be addressed? If you can't find enough evidence that you're bonded together, the ideal time to make your move is also in the now moment.
CELEBRITY PROFILES: Cancer is the sign of mothers. Women of this sign are most beautiful when nurturing others, but could someone like Liv Tyler possibly get any more beautiful? Just wait. I predict another child for her and husband Royston Langdon, followed by a career moment that will "dwarf" her role as a statuesque and stunning elfin princess in the gargantuan "Lord of the Rings" trilogy.

|  | 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!
