The year ahead should be an extremely active one for you both socially and in terms of business. You are likely to make lots of new friends who will introduce some exciting experiences into your life.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- If you think you are entitled to specific consideration from certain people, speak up. Others' minds aren't always operating on the same wavelength, and people may need reminding.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Use the same methods that previously brought you success in tackling something very similar to what you're now facing. What worked before should work again, with perhaps a few minor changes.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Without realizing it, you have won the confidence of someone who has been studying you closely. This person is looking for a person to confide in and believes you're the one.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Several wonderful, worthwhile ideas are likely to spring from some casual discussions you'll be having with others. Funny how the best schemes pop up when you're not looking.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Don't hesitate to act in harmony with your thoughts and/or inspirations. Certain ideas that enter your head concerning ways to further your ambitions could be very worthwhile.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Gains you acquire are likely to come about in a circuitous fashion. You'll be able to understand what's happening, but others will miss the point, allowing you to take advantage of them.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- The credit will belong to you when several people who have strong emotional ties pull together for a common cause. It will be due to you knowing how to get everyone working collectively.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- This is an especially good day to have a frank discussion regarding an important issue that needs resolving. Solutions can be found that will benefit all parties involved.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- If you put your mind to it, ways can be developed that'll enhance your earning capacity. The improvements you come up with might not make you rich, but they could sweeten the pot.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- As time passes and you open up, you're likely to become more and more sociable. If you haven't made plans for the day, it might prove worthwhile to join some friends who have.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- You're apt to be surprised by some candid comments made by someone whose confidence you didn't know you enjoyed. What occurs indicates closer bonds can be formed.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Social activities that emphasize the mental rather than the physical are likely to be the most appealing for you. Seek out chatty friends rather than your jogging buddies to pass the time.
