Tell adirtYjoke if it'll heat up the party, But why waste this fabulousness on frolic alone? Think rainbow cause and lead the pride parade! CAPRICORN (Dec. 23 - Jan. 20) They say money talks, but now, during the Sat- urn/Uranus/Pluto sextile, it screams loud, proud and queer. Smear it around and see wonderful things happen. Caps can trans- form a charitable gay cause into a power- ful movement. Even home and family issues are smoothed and soothed with a little fi- nancial oil. You have your values in place and who can argue with success? AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 - Feb. 19) How you appear to others takes a surprising turn- around with the Saturn/Pluto/Uranus sex- tile. Dye your hair lavender and speak out. Aqueerians ache to lead the rainbow causewith pomp, circumstance and pride. Now you can effectively gather the throb- bing masses (many of us like it that way.... ) and lead the team to victory. Go, team, go! I'll see you under the bleachers later....

At any rate, proud Aries are well advised to join the group dynamic. Mingle up a storm and reach out on an international level, there are many interesting folks to touch.
