Daily Horoscope for Friday, October 29, 2004

Moon Alert

Avoid shopping or making important decisions from 5:45 p.m. until 11:15 p.m. EDT today.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

It's time to use the resources of others. It's also the time to use your own resources. In other words, do whatever you can to improve yourself through courses, self-help books, and the like. (The motivation to improve yourself is the most important thing.)

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

With the Sun and Mercury opposite your sign now, you have a wonderful opportunity to learn more about yourself and how you deal with those who are closest to you. Getting along with others is probably one of the most important skills to have in this life. (No kidding.)

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

You get a lot of satisfaction from your job right now. That's why you're gung ho to do things. It's also why you're working harder than usual to be organized and on top of your scene. You want to be effective, efficient and productive. Hey -- who doesn't?

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Your work with children is important now. You can derive a lot of enjoyment from dealing with young minds. That's because you feel playful now. You're a kid yourself. You want to have a good time! (It's also why your sex life is saucy.)

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Family, home and domestic values come first now. Time spent with a parent will be meaningful. You can get a lot done at home. Why not clean the place and invite someone over? The thought of guests arriving is the perfect motivation for you.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

You're busy now running around doing errands, shopping and catching up on last-minute things. You might be doing Halloween in a big way this year. One of the reasons you're shopping more is you're earning more -- and you've got the goods to prove it.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Your focus is on cash flow, earnings and how you're hemorrhaging money. Keep your spirits up. Yes, the money goes out as fast as it comes in; but it is coming in! This is a very strong time for you. Go with what works: remove what doesn't. Be ruthless.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

With the Sun and Mercury in your sign now, it's all about you. Don't hesitate to put yourself first now. This is the time for you to re energize yourself for the rest of the year. Be on your toes because opportunities and people are drawn to you now as if by magic. Make the most of this!

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

It's important to balance your busy, social schedule with time alone at home. You can't be all things to all people. Don't even try. If you feel pulled to investigate your spiritual life now -- do it. That would be completely natural this month. (At least enjoy soul music.)

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Make an effort to see others now. This is a good time to enjoy your friends, plus your association with groups, clubs and organizations. Get out and see people. Accept all invitations. Talk to others about your hopes and dreams for the future. They can help you now!

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

With the Sun and Mercury at high noon in your chart, you're extremely powerful now. Inexplicably, opportunities and people are drawn to you. In fact, the spotlight is on you! People notice you for a variety of reasons. Just make sure they're the reasons you want.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

If you can travel anywhere now -- do it. You want a change of scenery. You're eager to expand your world through education, courses, travel, film, books - something. Explore different cultures. Go to places you normally would never visit. See how other people live.

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actor Richard Dreyfus (1947) shares your birthday. You're quick, bright and convincing. People respect you. You have an unusual combination of serious intensity and a whimsical sense of play. You make a great first impression. You're protective with family. In the year ahead, you will move beyond many activities that absorb you now. You're getting ready for something new.
