Venus and Pluto are on opposite sides an argument now. The question is what to do when our heart tugs against what we feel is our larger purpose. When something about a relationship just doesn't feel right, it's a "heads up" from the universe -- hold on tight, a twist of fate is coming. Lead with honesty and a sense of adventure.
ARIES (March 21-April 19). You're lucky because you take a moment to acknowledge and appreciate the humanity you share with others. This is done subtly -- maybe simply through a glance or nod -- but the impact is strong.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Waiting, though it may feel intolerable, is advised. The stars suggest you need time to process your feelings. You find good fortune when you act instead of REact.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). It may seem daring to imagine that things are perfect as they are, but it also may very well be true. Let go of your minor concerns, and you're able to face (indeed, embrace) your current situation.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Love is a push-and-pull game; you'll feel better if you push less and let a sweetheart come to you. By making your own happiness a higher priority, you handle problems.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). It's lucky to alter your plans, especially if you do so because you have a funny feeling. Others benefit from your decisions. Caregivers, note: Children thrive with more to do and be accountable for.
TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (July 14). Special breaks happen for you this year. You'll strengthen your work and financial position in August. Form a partnership or get married in September. October features courageous moves -- like quitting a tired job or giving your heart to someone completely. Wonderful things start with your relationship with a Sagittarius or Libra. Your lucky numbers are: 9, 30, 25, 49 and 33.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You outsmart the foxes today! Change your customary responses, especially in regard to loved ones who repeat like a scratched CD. The surprise interruption in your usual communication flow brings about a brilliant result.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Cherished dreams of the distant past resurface. How did you forget? Now that you're back "in touch," you're also very attractive to anyone who can help you move forward in the direction of making those dreams real.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Just being around a certain charismatic person makes you feel more engaged in your surroundings. You might be flattered to know that others feel the same way about you -- specifically, a Leo.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Loved ones need to shine, and you let them. Your graciousness will be long-remembered. Note: This is not a good day to use your cell phone while driving -- in fact, maybe it's never a good day for that.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). The stars favor investigations of all kinds. Delve into topics of interest, including casual ones like news and gossip. What you learn makes you even more curious.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Being too logical stunts your growth. Go on a flight of fancy. A break in your routine leads you to an influential person. A Libra offers advice. Even though it's hard to hear, this is the best perspective on your situation.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You give others the benefit of the doubt -- it's your modus operandi. Today, this could be a misstep. The most likely scenario turns out to be true. You don't have to be jaded to make an informed decision.
WEEKEND LOVE FORECAST:
- ARIES: You win a heart by talking in "You" phrases. Try not to use "I" very much.
- TAURUS: Venus graces you with natural appeal, so learning about love through manuals and classes, etc. may feel forced, but there are benefits to doing so.
- GEMINI: To avoid repeating past mistakes, do something different when you feel deja vu.
- CANCER: Joining a society, club or class will put you in the middle of a new circle of eligibles.
- LEO: Skip formalities and get right to the point.
- VIRGO: Seize every chance to meet and cultivate rapport with those you admire.
- LIBRA: You make a person feel like a real Somebody around you, so this person wants to be around you all the time.
- SCORPIO: You meet love while satisfying your curiosity.
- SAGITTARIUS: You're getting in the mix in a bold new way.
- CAPRICORN: Don't worry about meeting your special someone -- focus on being a special someone.
- AQUARIUS: You're drawn to a totally different type of person, or aspect of a person, than usually would interest you.
- PISCES: Your attraction secret is to celebrate what's right about the other person, instead of trying to figure out what is wrong.
COUPLE OF THE WEEKEND: Taurus and Libra both have an innate appreciation for the sensualities that make life a pleasure. Taurus knows how to quench an appetite for luxury, and Libra is a magnet for the good life. Libra: Remember to always give Taurus plenty of alone time. You'll be the one to structure most of your together time, too. Taurus: Libra needs proof of your love, which should be delivered on a daily basis.

|  | 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!
