You will have ample opportunities to make improvements in the year ahead. Things will take a while to gel, but don't lose heart -- rewards will come your way eventually.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Even though your victory might not be totally complete, it looks like you'll still be able to achieve an important objective. Do the best you can.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You'll have to work in close proximity with someone whose views differ considerably from yours, but you can still get things by being as diplomatic as possible.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- When it comes to business matters, don't waste a lot of time hammering out what you think will be a good deal. Chances are, it won't be.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Be careful, because a strong-willed associate might try to impose his or her decision on you in a situation that requires cool heads. Don't cave in.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Certain duties and responsibilities that require immediate attention should not be put off. Don't be oblivious to need for immediate action.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- There are indications that if you're not careful you'll place far too much importance on trivial issues. If you want to worry, do so over something worthwhile.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Don't allow your ego to control your behavior. You might think that you look great preening and strutting, but others will disagree.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- To advance your self-interest, you should avoid working with people whom you suspect to be more more adversaries than friends. Experience and intuition will be your guides.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Robbing Peter to pay Paul is never a good way to manage your money, so don't start now. You'd only make your situation much worse.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- You and your mate's intentions might end up conflicting. Unless you both agree to a plan, your actions could prove counterproductive.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Through the auspices of another, a situation you need to correct and/or resolve should go smoothly. It might turn out differently if you have to handle things unaided.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- If you have to deal with someone who is quite unreasonable, don't give up easily. A steady supply of tolerance and patience will gradually defang this person.
