Love has many forms. Sensitive souls have probably noticed their relationships exploring another shape, morphing into a new phase, trying on an alternative manner of being. Venus, gliding on her way through the early degrees of friendly Aquarius, seems to transmute passion into friendly fun. It's not a lesser love, just a different one.
ARIES (March 21-April 19). The biggest differences between people aren't actual boundaries, but mental ones. You see that clearly today. You're able to change your thinking to align yourself with a person you've been at odds with.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You keep changing your mind about an important event. Should you go or should you stay? What will you gain and what will you lose? If there's a chance to meet that special someone, don't hesitate. Go!
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). It's not a day to do things fast, especially things like driving, buying, selling or dating. Take your time. Take the decaf. Making no decision is favored over making a bad one.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Be the newcomer. It's an opportunity to reinvent yourself. Right now, weirdly, people around you will accept someone new more readily than someone they've known all their lives.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Friends seek your help, and you're there for them. But are you there for you, too? The most effective way to influence people is by example. And your example is especially effective with an impressionable Gemini person.
TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (Jan. 6). Your good reputation attracts lucrative work this year. Friends open your eyes and sweeten your life in March and April. Business requires you to learn new skills in April. Creative works get your attention in June — you could wind up selling your goods or teaching others by the end of the summer. Scorpio and Leo people are supportive partners. Lucky numbers are: 8, 22, 32, 5 and 19.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You're hungry for life. This is a winning state. Without a sufficiently large appetite for life, there's no motivation to do anything. Your connection with other earth signs, Taurus and Capricorn, help you find satisfaction.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You've had it with being neat, punctual and respectfully silent at all the right times. You're supposed to be a free spirit, right? Better to rebel in artistic ways than to become a worker gone wild. With the right materials, you're a genius.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You let down your defenses and allow the world in — and it feels good. But be careful whom you share your secrets with. Not everyone is as honorable as you are. Some people are jealous. Keep your eyes open.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). There's an opportunity for real intimacy because you're open and willing to learn. You really listen to your partner, not content to rely on what you think you hear — which is only half of the story.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You're an agent of change, which is why you find yourself in the midst of conflict. Doing good in the world is bound to sometimes cause personal discomfort. If it were easy, you wouldn't be drawn to it!
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Wow — are loved ones ever confusing you today with their erratic actions and moods! Why can't everyone be as laid back as you? All contradictions are like knots that will be worked out through gentleness and time.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). The advances you're thinking about may be as big as changing your life, or as small as changing your clothes. All are good, but the change you resist the most will be the absolute best one to make!
ASTROLOGICAL QUESTIONS: "I'm a Sagittarius with many wonderful friends, professional successes and much opportunity ahead. As I approach my 30th birthday (on Dec. 13), of course I can't help but evaluate... I've been dating, but haven't had a boyfriend in more than a year, and I always wonder about my boyfriend of eight years. We were a wonderful couple through very important years of our lives, but we broke up six years ago. The last time I wrote to him (we'd write birthday wishes annually — he is a Leo, born July 26, 1974), he asked that we don't write anymore. If it's that he's married, I'd walk away content knowing he's also content. Unfortunately, I'm not sure what the reason is. Is that hope something I can hang on to, or should I let go and move on?"
I feel he's in a committed relationship. I also feel that this love is most beautiful in the poeticized past. There is already another romance coming together for you — one that's appropriate for this time in your life. So yes, definitely let go and move on, sending your Leo a blast of love and good wishes in your mental parting.
CELEBRITY PROFILES: Classic style is the hallmark of Capricorn careers. And though Diane Keaton is loveably quirky, she forged her Hollywood path in the old-fashioned way — with relentless hard work, solid values and quality performances. From Broadway's first production of 1968's "Hair" to the lovable title character of "Annie Hall" to a brilliant and vulnerable Erica in "Something's Gotta Give," Keaton is consistent and prolific.

|  | 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!
