(March 20-April

You may be wondering why what's so important to you doesn't necessarily
seem so important to others. Maybe it's because they're not ready. Maybe
it's because you haven't quite sorted out what's the most meaningful
to you, which takes time. So, here's some astrological advice: don't
criticize anyone for not agreeing with you when you don't quite know
where you stand with yourself. Work on that, and use your most trusted
friends for a few choice conversations when you really have the subject
down to some key issues. |

(April 19-May

What, exactly, has been bothering you? You've done so much in recent
months to straighten out your life. And at the same time it feels like
there's this place inside you that just won't rest. On one level it may
seem like you're struggling to express your individuality. But when the
final investigation is complete in about six months, you'll see you were
looking for a truly satisfying way to work and share with like-minded
others. So you can take your individualistic impulses and direct them
toward bringing people together. Good for the world, good for you.

Play your strong suit and you will see you really do have something to
offer. Mentally oriented people such as yourself can work themselves
into a state of doubt so fast because very little in the world actually
makes sense from a rational perspective. You may persist in trying to
sort things out bit from bit psychologically for a while, but I suggest
you not waste your energy. Your time would be better spent making some
basic observations about your environment and waiting for your heart
to open to what you know is right and true. |

If you can get over your apprehensions about certain changes over which
you seem to have no control, you'll realize you've got nothing but opportunities
to choose between. There are certain decisions that will make themselves,
and there are others that you'll find very inviting. A combination of
astrological factors describes vivid differences between letting go of
the past and embracing the future. Yes, this all spells big changes --
but they are changes in the direction you've been pointing your life
for a long time.

Something you've been suspecting for a long time is about to be proven
true, and I don't think you'll have any complaints at all. But you have
to be willing to change your mind about certain ideas you've held for
so long you don't even notice they're there. But you'll certainly notice
when they are gone. Most people resist making adjustments to their belief
systems under the pretense of clinging to stability. But there is a particular
kind of stability you're learning to give up, which is the kind known
as being stuck. |

(Aug. 23-Sep.

There seems to be some uncomfortable tension between feeling like you
live in a world of your own, and deeply craving a kind of intense contact
from others. Yet they seem unable to reach through a layer of glass that
surrounds you. You're the one who needs to find an element of certainty
within all your doubts and bring that to one particular relationship.
Or, if you could express your doubts in a way that does not drown the
whole universe, that, too, could be the basis of a very beautiful exchange.
Either way, you need to do the reaching out. |

(Sep. 22-Oct.

The focus of astrological activity is now in your birth sign, and that's
calling a lot of attention to you. This may be coming at a time when
you want little other than to take care of your own affairs. But I suggest
you push yourself out into situations where you can make contact with
others, discover who is around you, and get some of the human contact
you need. Brilliant things will come of this, and though you have reason
to pay attention, you have no real reason to fear. Protecting yourself
is not always about retreating. Often, it's about being real. |

What does a Scorpio want? Start by forgiving everyone else for not knowing.
You have a right to be annoyed or concerned that what should be obvious
to you is not quite coming across. And it's fair enough to look to others
for examples and ideas. But when all of that gets you as far as you can,
you need to patiently sort out what truly matters to you, and establish
certain priorities that will help make it happen. If you can get that
far, others will be more than cooperative, and suddenly their actions
will make a lot more sense.

(Nov.
22-Dec. 22)
Refuse to allow one set of developments that you can't really do anything
about distract you from a much more exciting situation that's developing.
This sense of a split reality is common in times of change, when the
old is going out and the new is coming in. At the center of the two is
you and your ability to choose where you're going to put your energy.
Most people naturally gravitate toward the past, if only because it's
familiar. I suggest as these months develop that you go in any direction
but what you already think you know. |

A series of rapid professional developments should not take you by surprise;
you've been working for something for a long time. What may take you
by surprise is how different they turn out to be than what you were expecting.
That will tell you a little about the nature of expectations, which often
tend to limit us more than they get us to our true destination. It's
also interesting how close the past and the present can be in terms of
geographic space, and how distant they can be in terms of what they have
to offer. |

(Jan. 20-Feb.

You need to sidestep the influences of certain people who would have
you be more serious, less idealistic and overall less like yourself.
What you really need at this time is to be more like yourself, and everyone
you meet is going to provide some example, whether negative or positive.
The world is full of fakes, but then there arrive certain truly genuine
people who don't cling to themselves like a bug grasps a leaf. The right
people in your life right now are the ones who are willing to take chances.
Listen to what they have to say.

Continually balancing certain personal factors and professional ones
does not need to be as difficult as you've been making it. You could
just as well be bold and assertive rather than trying to mete out each
little increment of time based on your own sense of limitation. In fact,
you have plenty of time, and what you lack in time you make up for in
resources. Time is money and money is time, which means there's a tangible
relationship between the two forms of energy. But love and the support
that other people are offering you can also be tangible, if you're open
to receiving.
