Spiritual interests guide the action under the Pisces moon. Many are thinking and wondering about the unseen realms of existence. For instance, are people really connected to one another with invisible bonds? And what happens in the afterlife, if there is one? These musings may lead us to act in thoughtful and loving ways.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Recent excitement has taxed you emotionally. That's why you'll gravitate to nice, normal people who have something interesting, but not too interesting, to talk about.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You're swayed by beauty, and you're willing to pay for superior design. A storefront or salesperson presents items with an elegance that will render you lighter in the wallet.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Your mood is practical, logical and stable. So it will be challenging for you to relate to the one who seems to be dreaming life away. Try anyhow, because you and this person complement each other perfectly.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). There's a bit of the dark rebel in you now, and someone in your midst is absolutely mesmerized by your bold and unpredictable behavior. You will continue to grow in popularity.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Unlike some, you don't expect to be paid for any and every exertion of effort. You do, however, require that each activity you endeavor is its own reward. It is precisely because you find your work so rewarding that the money comes to you.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You can send a message without making it overt. In fact, lately you are a master of silent communication. It's as though you have a direct, invisible mental connection with whomever you want to influence.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You'll be in charge of making sure business runs smoothly and all the necessary connections are made. Set the right atmosphere, and people will basically take care of themselves.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Your inner drives are more important to you than any external threat or reward. You'll do a job because you are compelled to do it -- because it pains you to consider doing anything else.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You long for a project so enthralling that it makes you forget about the petty worries and concerns of daily life. Such a project will come along by the end of the month. Keep your eyes wide open for clues.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Have you ever talked to someone and felt that the conversation was so difficult that the minutes you spent trying felt like hours? You'll have a similar experience today. Know that these social trials are not in vain.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You'll look forward to spending time with a smooth operator you know. Note that you don't have to talk about anything important or deep to keep the positive vibes bouncing between you.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Your imagination is so strong that you will be able to project yourself through time, in a sense, as you hone your vision of what you want your future to be. See yourself in a happy state, and trace back to the origins of that happiness.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (June 22). You'll take charge of your personal life. In the next four weeks, you will remember something you wanted long ago and will revive the effort to make it happen. Your network grows in July. New friends open up areas of interest. Your physical fitness improves in September. December brings the celebration of a union. Scorpio and Libra people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 4, 1, 22, 49 and 13.

ASTROLOGICAL QUESTIONS: "I recently moved and spent so much money on the move and the house that I have nothing left for decorating. I've been invited to some of the neighbors' homes and am intimidated by the level of decorating that is obviously expected here. I don't have the cash to pay a professional or buy a lot of new things. I also don't have much of an eye for decorating. Do you have any suggestions for a Sagittarius who doesn't want her children to be embarrassed to bring their new friends home?"

Sagittarius people are so active and out and about in the world that they usually wind up spending less time at home than many people, using it as a place to crash, eat and change clothes. But creating a safe haven to do those things is not as difficult as you think. It will help to have a theme. Look in magazines, books, stores and other people's houses for ideas. Don't worry about what the neighbors are doing. There is no wrong or right, just what speaks to you and what doesn't. Secondly, each room should have a focal point. Maybe it's art, a collection or a view. Build around the focal point. Attain pieces when you can, and donate whatever doesn't fit in to charity.

CELEBRITY PROFILES: The legendary Academy Award-winning actress Meryl Streep has been heralded as the greatest actress of our time. That doesn't keep her from doing musicals or comedy, though. She'll soon appear as Tina Fey's mother in the Stanley Tucci film "Mommy and Me." Streep is a nurturing Cancer, with Venus and Uranus in moon-ruled Cancer, as well.
