This is the first full day of the sun's journey through Pisces. The symbol for Pisces -- two fish swimming in opposite directions -- evokes the complexities of this sign. There's a certain flexibility that goes along with this transit and a willingness to question one's ideology. Whatever you believe, could the opposite belief be true, as well?

ARIES (March 21-April 19). There's a temptation to put the cart before the horse. It's great to superimpose yourself onto your fantasy future, but you still have to do the work in the present in order to get there.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). If you're too careful, you won't be able to accomplish what you need to do. Make "quick and dirty" your mantra. You'll be amazed at the quality of work you can put out when you just let yourself dive in without a care.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Find the time to write something down about your day. This turns into an adventure as you uncover thoughts and feelings you didn't even know you were having. What a discovery! Like a treasure tucked away in a mysterious cave.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). You're a bit of a provocateur these days. Make this work to your advantage. Create a stir just for you. Get some hype going for your project, business or personal interest.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). As a situation grows more convoluted by the hour, you're finding it increasingly difficult to keep your mouth shut. You add your two cents and it amounts to a lot more than that.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Someone is trying to impress you with status. Too bad this person hasn't figured out that you could care less about how important other people think they are. You want to connect with someone as down-to-earth as you are.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). There are those around you who can't help but stir things up. It's their job to challenge the status quo. You will somehow find a way to conduct yourself with grace even when the boat is rocking.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). It's true that part of your identity is tied to what you do. And lately that's a big part of you. But you're not about to let that become your whole identity. There is so much more to you. Explore new extracurricular activities.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). To say that you are merely talented would be an understatement. You could become a master, with the right training. Consider getting a teacher. You might be able to barter to obtain someone's mentorship.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Keep doing the right thing. You are moving toward a state of grace. Others can sense that you're headed for a sweet position, and they will want to get closer to you, just hoping the good fortune will rub off on them.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You may be affected by someone's mistake or oversight. This small slight doesn't have to ruin your day, though. In fact, it might be the best thing to happen to you, as other opportunities spring up.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You'll get your moment to shine, and you won't have to fight for it, either. So be patient, modest and laid-back. When it's your turn, you'll step up and deliver with great charm.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (Feb. 19). You will show the world that there's even more to you. You increase your self-discipline and become stronger emotionally, physically and financially. March brings a new and influential friend into your life. June introduces a different line of work. September features family additions and celebrations. Aquarius and Virgo people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 10, 3, 33, 21 and 49.

WEEKEND LOVE FORECAST: ARIES: You are self-confident and self-sufficient. This is so attractive. TAURUS: Put in some time with your love's family. Building these relationships is a new way to show your love. GEMINI: You are committed to improving yourself. Take a break, though. Cut loose. CANCER: Someone needs you to be strong and constant. Embrace your role as the rock. LEO: You have to pay to play. You'll be paid back, though. VIRGO: Dare to put your feelings in writing. You don't have to send the note, but it will help you to write it. LIBRA: Your private life is your business, though someone is trying to stick his or her nose into it. SCORPIO: Hone your style so that it can come through loud and clear. SAGITTARIUS: When you are happy, your love will be happy. Get a massage. CAPRICORN: Try not to overthink your status in a relationship. Everything is going well. AQUARIUS: You request things of your love, it's true. But your delivery is so cheerful that you can't possibly be accused of nagging. PISCES: You'll be the life of the party. And if there is no party, throw one.

COUPLE OF THE WEEKEND: Aries and Pisces are right next to one another on the zodiac wheel, though one represents the beginning and the other the end. These two naturally fall into established roles: Aries leads and Pisces follows. Aries cooks and Pisces cleans up. Aries makes the social schedule and Pisces shows up to the party. This weekend the roles reverse and Pisces takes charge of Aries, the devoted follower.
