All Horoscopes: http://web1.nypost.com/cgi-bin/horoscope.pl ARIES Don't pretend that you are shocked by what other people do today because you have done the same, and worse, many times yourself. It is never a good idea to be judgmental, especially when your rivals and enemies could so easily point out your own mistakes and frailties. Accept every person you meet for who and what he or she is. 1-900-990-7810* TAURUS Anyone who tries to impose limits on you today must be told in no uncertain terms that you will not be confined by someone else's idea of who you should be. There is only one person who has the right to decide where you will go and what you will do, and that person is you. Stick up for yourself, because nobody else will. 1-900-990-7811* GEMINI You have your own aims and your own way of doing things, and if you are wise, you will stick with them, no matter how hard others try to persuade you that their way is best. If it all gets a bit too much for you on the work front today, head for home earlier than usual and spend time with family and friends. You'll feel better for it. 1-900-990-7812* CANCER The sun's alliance with Jupiter, planet of good fortune, in the most open and outgoing area of your chart today means you will be a lot more sociable than you usually are. The more of an effort you make to reach out to people, the more of an effort they will make to be nice to you. You might even make an important new friend. 1-900-990-7813* LEO There will be a temptation today to do something big to get yourself noticed, and let's hope you get yourself the kind of financial rewards you think you deserve. The only danger is that you will go too far and give others the impression that you are a bit too extreme, a bit too excessive to be trusted. Tone down your act a little. 1-900-990-7814* VIRGO You will get a final throw of the dice today and the planets indicate that there is a very good chance that your lucky number will come up. The last few weeks have been extra special for you, and what happens over the next 24 hours will be the icing on the cake. Enjoy what you get because you thoroughly deserve it. 1-900-990-7815* LIBRA Take a deep breath, hold it, now let it out slowly. The sun's entry into your birth sign tomorrow marks the beginning of a wonderful new phase, one in which so many of your dreams will come true. The more relaxed you are now, the more easily things will come to you over the next three or four weeks. There's no need to be anxious. 1-900-990-7816* SCORPIO If you act on impulse, if you do things on the spur of the moment, you will not only enjoy yourself, but you will meet people who are impressed by your can-do attitude and who may be able to help you in the weeks and months ahead. Treat everyone you meet today with courtesy and respect - you never know how important they may be to your future. 1-900-990-7817* SAGITTARIUS The sun's alliance with Jupiter, your ruler, today makes this one of the best days of the year for getting things done. On the work front, especially, you must make an extra special effort to win over colleagues, employers and others on whom your plans may depend. Let them in on your big ideas - they cannot help but be impressed. 1-900-990-7818* CAPRICORN This is one of those days when, if you make an effort to reach out to people, you will not only change your environment, but also the world as a whole. It is not true that one single person cannot make much of a difference. On the contrary, changes made on an individual level spread out in all directions, like ripples on a pond. 1-900-990-7819* AQUARIUS Good fortune of some kind will brighten your day and you are entitled to feel pleased with yourself. But don't think that's the end of the matter. Don't think you can now sit back and do nothing. The sun's entry into your fellow air sign of Libra tomorrow promises even greater rewards for those who make a conscious effort to improve themselves. 1-900-990-7808* PISCES The more you have done for others, the more others will now do for you. Today's sun-Jupiter union falls in the area of your chart that governs one-to-one relationships, so you can expect some kind of reward in areas where you have worked alongside others toward a common goal or aim. Good things always come to those who deserve them. 1-900-990-7809* Sports News: http://web1.nypost.com/sports/sports.shtml ROOKIE MISTAKE: http://www.nypost.com/sports/yankees/28933.htm By GEORGE KING Spank Pedro Martinez one day.
