Goals you were unable to achieve in the past months are likely to be easily attained in the year ahead. This won't be by chance, it will be because you've learned a lot from failure and won't repeat any of your mistakes.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You might not show any signs of getting a move on, but once you get involved in something you like, you'll be dedicated to the cause until the job is finished.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Try not to take yourself or any unimportant developments too seriously. Instead, if you make a game out of things, you'll enjoy the day far more.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- One of the best ways to resolve a family issue is to give everyone enough time to sleep on it before trying to find a solution. It could help keep everyone's ego in check.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Think first in order to phrase your remarks or comments in a non-combative manner. If you get careless, there's a chance you might say something offensive without thinking.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Of course it's important to look out for your own interests, but not at the expense of being indifferent to everybody else's. By being shortsighted, you may gain now but lose later.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- If you want to be successful, don't ease up on your work if you can't cut the mustard on your first try. It looks like it might require a second or even third attempt to get something complicated done.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Someone might deliberately give you some confidential information as a test to see if you would reveal it to others. I hope you pass with flying colors.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Any hope or expectation based on a realistic premise has an excellent possibility of being realized today, mostly because you've taken off your rose-colored glasses.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Although competition might be a bit tougher than usual, you'll be up to the challenge. It isn't likely that you'll do any whining at the fist sign of a struggle.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- What keeps you mentally relaxed is having faith in the fact that there's always a solution to every problem. As long as you keep a cool head, you'll find the answers easily.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Outside factors may cause a great deal of change, but even though the turmoil might upset others, your versatility will handle it well.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- There's always a chance that those with whom you're involved might lack your vision when it comes to making an important judgment call. Get involved in the decision-making process.
