Getting involved with large groups or organizations in the year ahead could produce a number of excellent, peripheral benefits for you, such as many new friends. This is an especially good time to become a joiner.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- If you don't appear to be overly anxious or eager a buyer, you should be able to negotiate a much better price for what you want. Don't hesitate to dicker like the dickens.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Because you're full of new ideas and especially good at conceptualizing what to do with them, there's little doubt you'll implement your plans in a sober, prudent and feasible manner.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Don't hesitate to remind someone of his or her obligations if it seems like this person is ignoring them. If you don't, your chances of receiving what is owed you will be slimmer than a supermodel.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Something that you're hoping to obtain is in your grasp if you are able to regroup and try again when necessary. Don't give up on the first go-around.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- To your credit, you have the stick-to-itiveness necessary to face and conquer the most challenging situations, mostly because of your persistence and ability to think on the fly.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Follow the same game plan that led you to sweet victory before, because there's no reason why it wouldn't work again. There's an old saying: "When it isn't broke, don't fix it."

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- In endeavors where you are trying to develop a second source of income, operate along familiar lines where you know you have a chance for success. Stick to what you know.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Of all the signs, you are the one who usually derives the greatest benefits from being protective of those who mean a lot to you. This is likely to be true for you once again.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Adopt an industrious attitude, because your earning potential is especially strong at this time, and it should be taken advantage of. Operate along your usual lines and you'll have success.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Opportunities exist for you to revitalize an old relationship that once meant a lot to you. Don't ignore this chance, because who knows how long it'll be before you'll get it again.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Use your imagination to visualize the manner in which an important situation could resolve itself. Chances are you should be able to successfully follow its blueprint to rock-solid success.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Treat an important situation with the seriousness it deserves, especially when you know reorganization is called for. Once you make the necessary changes, favorable results will occur.
