Horoscope: March 5

Aries (March 21-April 19). If it makes you want to run away and hide, that's an excellent sign that you should run toward it and wave your arms so as to be seen as the bigger-than-life force you really are.

Taurus (April 20-May 20). Love will inspire you to go to extremes, bringing out the very best and the very worst you are capable of, depending on the hour. Also, romantic hopefuls will vie for your attention.

Gemini (May 21-June 21). Your guiding planet, Mercury, is pulling out of a fiery trine with lucky Jupiter, helping you communicate your heart's desire. If you keep your words soft and sweet, you won't mind if you have to eat them later.

Cancer (June 22-July 22). It's a time to try things out. You'll find yourself in unfamiliar territory, so you may as well take social risks. Nobody here knows you anyway! You might as well be who you want to be.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22). You like your new friends to be relentlessly positive, but you rely on your old friends to be slightly less so because a snarky comment here and there proves their humanity.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). If you want people to tell you the truth (and you probably do today), you'll have to lower the obstacles that prevent them from honest talk. Let them know that you sincerely want to improve and that you need their input.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Just because something's coming out today doesn't make it good. You'll look into what's popular for the sake of staying current, though you may not find it all that valid.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). If you're making mistakes, it means you're trying. Don't let the mess-ups stress you out. Go back and try again. Keep your humor, and you'll find your way.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Fix it, or let it go. Don't vacillate between. Worry is passive, miserable and unproductive. Train yourself not to worry because nothing will improve from that kind of attention.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). The first step to making yourself irreplaceable is to realize that no one is irreplaceable. Secondly, do the job to the best of your ability, and then go the extra mile so that someone else can have a wonderful experience.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). If you understand everything before it's explained to you, then you'll miss out on the opportunity to learn. Ask questions, even if you think you already know the answers.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20). You've already been down this road. Do you remember the moves that got you through it before? When you stumbled, you made it part of the dance.

Today's Birthday (March 5). You'll find what you're looking for this year, so you may as well look for something miraculous. Demanding goals will keep you highly motivated. A big sale will close this month. Moves are featured in June. You'll learn a new skill in July, and it will augment your income. November and December bring romantic adventure. Libra and Virgo people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 4, 40, 3, 21 and 18.
