LEO
July 23/24 - August 23

This year is going to be much, much, much easier than `98 to' 99, and will make `99 to '00 kind of like that first year in a real college, where you needed to get the requirements out of the way. Like, you're too naïve not to mind getting up at 8 a.m. for that Biology lab, you know? Not to say 2001 is going to be party-central (well, late spring through summer, sure...). But easier in departments involving: interaction with others, speaking up for yourself on the job, finding inventive ways to deal with problems having to do with scheduling, upgrading transportation. The difficult months will be January and October, but by Valentine's Day you should be able to breath more easily. Some big planetary transits will affect those of you with specific birthdays more than others. To wit: Uranus opposing your sun makes those of you born in the last week of Leo incredibly open to blowing your life up to poster-size. Even if you're not at that edge-of-midlife crisis time (40-42, say), you'll want to destroy any restrictive environment. Generally, Leo can learn to live in a den quite nicely, but this year, no, especially for late Lions. And, the planet Neptune is also opposing Leo, but will be mostly affecting July lions. This means - no life of crime for you, and try to live your life as a "what you see is what you get." No need to bother with masks - you'll end up in the wrong parade.

January 1 through 3 are excellent for new contacts who are younger and more brash and eager than you, while January 4 and 5 are good days to be dissatisfied with everything. Why is 2001 going so slowly? Not a good day for getting along with others. January 6 and 7 are excellent for flirtation, or any short-term infatuation ("The CueCat - how did I live without it?!") January 8 and 9, figure you're in the (sad) sack race with shoelaces tied together as well. January 10 and 11, the moon is in your sun sign. Whatever you're wavering about, will become abundantly clear. Everything intensifies - you know what it's like to wear yellow-tinted glasses in the snow? Sharper edges, everywhere. January 12 and 13, follow up on the crazy promises you made a few days earlier. January 14 and 15 are better days to seem agreeable to others - good for writing, as well. January 16 through 18, you won't be easy to agree with. You'll waver, and seem most un-regal. Don't be caught gossiping, but don't turn down news. Especially on January 19 and 20, which are good for traveling or some kind of activity. Show-offs could amuse you, but remember what happened to fellow fixed-sign Sonny Bono. January 21 through the 24 is the waning moon, and your energies should be dwindling. Don't have high expectations of your own productivity, and if you can't act on impulses that you think are useful hunches, at least write them down so you don't forget. (I was thinking of putting money into beer companies in late summer - anticipating another presidential Bubbadom - it would have been very smart). January 25 through 27 are good days for losing inhibitions and gaining recovered memory, while January 28 and 29, you've got all the time in the world to do 20 different errands. For yourself - not a good time to do for others, unless it'll enhance public standing. January 31: stop being so bratty.
