Sun............... 13th degree Taurus

Comet 73/P........ 15th degree Sagittarius
ZODIACTION POINTS FOR TODAY
ARIES (March 21-April 19): You are attracted to information that presents a mystery. You want to know more about foreign customs. Getting to the bottom of a problem or an unknown becomes almost obsessive with you.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You need to work in a large group today. This makes up for your own failings but also allows you to emphasize your strength. Being on your own impairs your ability to make progress. You thrive in group efforts.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): You are treading a fine line between meeting real obligations and letting them override your judgment that they could be wrong. Balance authority versus your moral imperatives.
CANCER (June 21-July 22): Being agreeable is the best way to learn. You may not be presented with all intentions or explanations, so learn and understand as you go. By not arguing, you enter into what you need to know.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): You are prone to nervous tension but awareness of this can lead you to relaxation exercises. You need to unblock creativity and let ideas flow. Relaxation through body-based intervention is very helpful.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You can quickly see where situations are going wrong. You need the strength of character to not give up too soon; be supportive and encouraging instead. You tend to see weak points before the strong points.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): There can be a struggle for domination of ideas today. Push forward yours when you know someone else is wrong. Put your objections, criticism and alternatives onto the table so people can choose.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Romance is apt to give you highs and lows today. Excessive expectations make you over-hopeful, and failures to meet them cause disappointment. Wait and see what people are like and learn who they really are.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You need to focus your attention on whatever you're doing, not run on automatic. However, directing attention to aiding others, or on projects that ultimately do so, are highly favored.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You are prone to relax and take it easy today, which is good if it's appropriate but bad if you're required to be alert and attentive. Take your entertainment outside of the workplace.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You tend to be obsessed with money or else the need for it to improve your appearance. You're challenged to put money and vanity in proper perspective and if socially possible to value character more.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Beware of depression brought on by pessimism or helplessness. It's easy to feel the victim but this very sensitivity can also help you imagine positive solutions based in your spiritual tradition.
This month, the ephemeris features the position of periodic comet Schwassmann-Wachmann 3. It makes its closest approach to Earth May 12, and barely reaches visible magnitude about then. Astrological lore about comets is unsystematic. Use this listing to correlate cometary positions with unexpected events and strange modifications of normal astrological influences. The longitudes are based on calculations of the JPL on-line HORIZONS ephemeris generator at ssd.jpl.nasa.gov/horizons.cgi.
These interpretations are based on the aspects and positions of the planets in relation to each sun-sign. They indicate the general mood and issues of the day as you experience them. Be creative in applying your forecast to the actual circumstances of your life.
