Horoscopes
Aries
March 21 - April 19
People are your life blood, as well as a source of your wonder. Share your creative ideas this week, and everyone will be fascinated with your conversations. Your showmanship & flair may be questioned by those in authority, and peers may try to question your motives, but respond with positive financial data. Collect & study the facts, you may be tested to remember,later. Don't be too ready to accuse someone without knowing the facts, but you probably shouldn't trust everything you hear. If you are selling something, you are likely to close the deals and get top dollar.
Taurus
April 20 - May 20
Whether it be for business or for pleasure, take advantage of the situation before you. Set the standards, keep the flow positive, and don't try to preach your morals to others. Keep your private life private and your social life social. Your excess energy might put you in danger of saying or doing something inappropriate. Others may not be in a mood to have their limitations challenged. Romance your opponent until they are firmly in your camp. The closer you get to someone, the less your differences matter. Allow room for variation. Take the lead and enjoy a fulfilling end to a great week.
Gemini
May 21 - June 20
There is careful, cautious and conscientious workmanship in everything you do. You might do well to tiptoe around someone who is irritable. You haven't done anything wrong, you simply may be working with some very vulnerable people right now. You may be surprised by what you hear. Rather than defend yourself, face the truth with a readiness to make changes. Even if you try to get off to a quick start, chances are you'll need to slow down to deal with delays and obstacles. Don't panic. You may take comfort in the past, with its old ways and old solutions. If they worked once, they'll probably work again.
Cancer
June 21 - July 22
Small changes may ultimately give you the freedom you seek, and can help you to appreciate others feelings and emotional insecurities. As long as you are sure of your position, you should prevail. Look to your dreams for a clue to what you might need to change. There is, though, that stubborn person who just wants to keep doing things the old way. You may need to be extra persuasive in order to get their support. It will help you to clarify the choices you're making now. Get out of the house and connect with people. Your charm should be back in form and ready to entertain yourself and others.
Leo
July 23 - August 22
Accept others' misgivings honestly. A high level of confidence will announce to others that you're ready to get down to business. Communicate your intentions clearly from the very beginning. The secret to your success will lie in finding a compatible partner to bounce off of. If you continue to argue on every point, then you may need to look elsewhere. You need to know when you're wrong and when to admit it. Accepting a defeat or a setback with grace will make a bad moment much shorter. You may never want this to happen again, but if it does, you'll be better prepared to handle it
Virgo
August 23 - September 22
You can't continue to wear your emotions on your sleeve. A recent chain of events needs to be addressed. Keep recent promise to continue to keep yourself fit, will benefit you both physically and emotionally. You could be easily irritated by small matters, and may not appreciate others criticizing your methods. Try not to turn this into a war. There are, after all, many ways to approach a problem. Wisdom is about the willingness to take in, with an open mind, the views of others. This weekend, go do something weird, strange, different! If you need the space, go have a good time by yourself and leave others out of it.
Libra
September 23 - October 23
An exciting person may push you to try something new, possibly even dangerous. A little risk-taking could be good for you, breaking traditions and opening new doors of opportunity. Investigate new possibilities in matters of business & trading. Use your productive time to organize others, lead the way to the top.Something complicated may come to light. Don't cover it up, instead clean it up. Problems are sometimes opportunities to show how competent you are and could lead to a more efficient system. Keep hammering away to get your point across when a stubborn mind resists the new ideas you have to offer.
Scorpio
October 24 - November 21
Your skills are a valuable asset to any team on which you're a player. Hold off on making your report final until you have listened to others concerns. A chance meeting will be the start of a fresh new relationship. Spend some quality time and realize how special you feel. Your entire outlook will be transformed. Gatherings may become heated, but refuse to take sides in group disagreements. Don't allow negative comments you hear to discourage your progress. Watch for opportunities that could soon become available to you. Take a moment to study the situation from all angles
Sagittarius
November 22 - December 21
Staying on time, keeping schedules and your ability to have discipline in your life is the way to achieve your immediate goals. Talk to a trusted friend about their experiences. If possible, try to get an extension on your deadline. Hasty actions could be worse for you than not acting at all. If you have more time, try to devote it to getting it right. Someone close to you will disappoint you, but at least be fair with your feelings. Once you're able to express your pent up frustration, you'll be able to forgive then move on. Get out and find new projects that interest you.
Capricorn
December 22 - January 19
Stay flexible and be ready to shift gears quickly. Push yourself to listen to other's problems & try to make compromises for them. If your relationships are less than ideal, this is probably as good a time as any to resolve those difficulties. Keep a smile on your face and you'll be amazed at what you can get away with. This approach is one that enables you to be strong while appearing gentle. Some intense debate could prove engaging late in the week. Humor, again, is the key to having your say without damaging your relationship.
Aquarius
January 20 - February 18
A good, solid understanding of yourself and your own needs is very helpful at this time. Recent events have given you the confidence to ask for the impossible. Take time to smell the flowers, you'll be glad you did. Petty jobs demand your time and attention. Don't worry, this is not permanent. In fact, you may find yourself in a much more sociable mood. Give yourself the right to try some different approaches, bold and direct, demure and indirect. A bossy person may shake your self-image, but you needn't copy someone else's model to be successful. If you prepare properly, this week could be a great adventure.
Pisces
February 19 - March 20
You may be called on to stand up and explain yourself. Avoid defensiveness, be objective. You need to be more compassionate towards loved ones & learn to enjoy the simple treasures you possess. The company you keep could lift your spirits and remind you that fun doesn't have to be expensive. One of the most useful activities is simply to share your thoughts with someone you trust. You could use a sounding board, someone to respond to your ideas. We all need feedback sometimes. Once you let your feelings out, you should be able to enjoy a good time of love and play.
[OOC Note: The horoscopes are considered by most in the City to be very accurate, since a lady with an ability for this sort of thing provides them. Use them as you will - accurate or not.]
News & Advertisements
- Police are asking after any women who may be victims of Sergio Garcia, who is currently being investigated for impersonating a doctor after four women were hospitalized for corrective surgery after receiving his illegal injections. Last month the Sirens Port Board of Health ordered him to stop giving breast and buttock implantations as he had no medical license.
SPPD reports they believe there may be as many as a dozen more victims. Garcia peddled his bogus curve enhancements mainly to AGI sex workers. Several sex work-related blogs place blame on the pressure AGI workers often experience to keep a desirable appearance, suiting the standards and changing tastes of customers rather than embracing their pre existing strengths.
