A person in a high position at your place of business might start to take you into his or her confidence in the coming months. Some of the information you receive could be used in ways that are personally profitable.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Although it will be easy for you to get along with most people, you can still expect cross words to come out of your mouth if a nasty person ticks you off. Avoid such types if you can.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- If you expect friends or family to do things for you that you can easily do for yourself, you're going to be severely disappointed. You had better be ready to go it alone.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Even if you're sure of yourself, it isn't smart to forcibly impose your beliefs on others. You might win the argument but alienate your pals in the process.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Although you may be able to see some changes that would clearly benefit your family, your kinfolk may not be prepared to make them. To get their support, they'll need to see what you see.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Even if another has better ideas, you may not be easily convinced. Make sure that you're not putting the kibosh on something cool just because your pride is wounded.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Your conclusions regarding how others should be managing their affairs will be right on the money, yet when it comes to your own bailiwick, you'll suddenly go blank.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Avoid inclinations to treat simple situations in a heavy-handed manner. If you take yourself or events too seriously, you are likely to just make yourself sick.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Attend to tasks that require know-how and concentration as early in the day as possible, while you're fresh and alert. As time ticks on, your temperament and talents could lose their cutting edge.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Socializing and being with friends will be fun, provided the time spent with them is of short duration. Unfortunately, your social graces might not have much staying power.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Because your temper might have a short fuse right now, you could bring woe to those who cross you and make you angry. Sadly, the probabilities of you misinterpreting others' intentions will be high.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Have the courage of your convictions, because if you don't, a know-it-all might try to intimidate you by discounting your ideas in front of others.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Instead of applying incoming funds to new endeavors or merchandise that you've had your eye on, it would be a whole lot smarter to pay off some of your old debts first.
