Sunday's Horoscope - Burlington Free Press
The Cancer moon is a mother determined to protect and guide her children, come what may. It pays to know where your nurturing comes from, and also to be aware of the forces and influences that keep you from feeling safe enough to thrive. You may even have the guts to cut such an influence out of your life under this moon.
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Some people will work themselves half to death for love and approval. You, on the other hand, will work because it's what you do. It brings you satisfaction to be in action. Any appreciation you gain in the process is a bonus.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). When you get frustrated with the people you know, you consider strangers in a new light. Today's opportunity will come from one of the billions of people you don't know yet.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Keep the productivity coming, even when the work you're turning out is less than thrilling. There is a learning curve, and you're not on the other side of it yet. Eventually, quantity will breed quality.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Anger is tricky. Sometimes you can get mad at someone for a reason you know is completely ridiculous, and yet you're still mad. That's when you need a solo round of vigorous exercise.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Creative talent isn't just about playing an instrument or buying decor. Your creative talent will come out in interesting ways now, especially having to do with conversational wit and motivating people.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). The strange way things unfold may cause you to feel taken aback or emotionally thrown for a loop. You could find yourself saying "ha-ha" when you want to be saying "aha" or vice versa.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Say what's on your mind, and don't worry about whether you sound smart or cool. Far better to be warm and genuine than to hang back in a cloud of aloof self-consciousness.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You're a tough judge of character, especially your own. What you expect of yourself is sometimes unreasonable, though that doesn't always keep you from achieving it.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Someone else's experience and opinion of you is colored by your enthusiasm and level of engagement. This will make the difference between being "in" and being "out."
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). All the best games have difficult odds. They wouldn't appeal to you otherwise. "Persistence in the face of failure is often the key to eventual success, except in skydiving." -- Robert Mankoff
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You may love the one who loves you back, but mutuality is not the reason for your affection. Your pure love is not based on what the other person feels or does for you.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Plan a dinner party. Don't wait around until you meet the funniest, smartest people in the world so that you can have the best dinner party since the dawn of time. This thinking leads to a frozen dinner for one.
TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (Feb. 5). You get serious about love. In games of the heart, you will play for keeps. A windfall in the next 10 weeks will be the result of your decision to become better educated or invest in a creative dream. Trust your instincts in March, when people may be slow to show their true colors. Properties get top dollar in July. Capricorn and Aries people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 40, 2, 12, 49 and 15.
FORECAST FOR THE WEEK AHEAD: What would you have to believe in order to live the life you want? Stay aware and observant. Last week's Neptune transit was monumental in that the change will color the next 14 years. And yet because Neptune is so distant and slow moving, at least from the earthly point of view, the effects of this momentous astrological shift will be far too subtle to notice in these early weeks. Rest assured, small events are lining up to bring a change. Sooner or later your world will always reflect the way you are on the inside.
Dramatic tension mounts in the first part of the week. The full moon in Leo will bring a passion play that seems a little too theatrical to be real. The feeling underneath may be honest enough, but most people have a tendency to exaggerate or focus too intently on trivial mannerisms, attributing great meaning to the tiniest gestures and words. On the downside, some of what happens may in retrospect seem overwrought and embarrassing. On the upside, the show of emotion could be just the memorable piece of action that will bring people together in a solid bond.
CELEBRITY PROFILES: A renowned star of stage and screen, Aquarian actor Michael Sheen has gained critical acclaim and box-office bounty playing real-life figures such as Amadeus Mozart, David Frost and Tony Blair. His natal sun and Mercury in Aquarius shows a great social conscience. His moon and Pluto in Virgo suggests the kind of attention to detail that is necessary for executing accurate, compelling work.
