The objectives that you thought well beyond your scope last year could now be within your reach. You have an abundance of potential waiting to be expressed and put to work that will propel you onward and upward.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- If you keep in mind that it's the bottom line that counts and not all those little spurs that can puncture you at times, it'll get you focusing on forces that can bring you success.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- One of your peers might try to have you believe otherwise, but those in authority do in fact hold you in high regard. Don't listen to anyone who doesn't want to know the truth.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- If you are not demanding or critical of others, you will outpoll everybody else in the proverbial popularity contest. Assume a friendly, enthusiastic attitude with all, and watch the votes roll in.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Action you precipitate could promote something beneficial for you and all those with whom you're involved. By putting the needs of others first, you'll come out ahead as well.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- It's up to you to think positively and to establish desirable objectives for yourself. You have plenty of reasons to view life optimistically at this time. If you instead take a dim view of things, it'll be your own fault.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) --If you devote your attention and efforts on ways to make money, you could do very well for yourself. Get an early start, lay out a solid game plan and stick to it.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- There is only one thing that you should keep uppermost in your mind, and that is to know that you can successfully manage anything you put your mind to.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- This is one of those days where it might appear to be darker than usual before the metaphorical dawn breaks. Whatever you do, don't lose faith in yourself or what you do, and things will work out well.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Something quite personal that isn't of a material nature has an excellent chance of working out to your satisfaction. It might be fulfilled a lot quicker than you think.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- People with whom you'll be involved are likely to provide a mix of both good and bad episodes, which overall will work out quite favorably for you in both personal and career-related areas.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Lady Luck is likely to start cozying up to you at this point in time, and that's why you may now begin to find far fewer obstacles blocking your path. Enjoy the clear headway.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- It's best not to discuss a disturbing matter that another person is grappling with. By talking about it, you could cause additional problems for the party in question.
