ARIES (March 21-April 19): Watch for feelings of frustration, annoyance, apathy. These are signs that the person involved (which may be you) is engaged in tasks for which they're unprepared. Additional training is required, as well as a motivational pep talk.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You are aware of the lines of authority on the job today. Duties seem strictly controlled now. It's best to stick with your assignments and not stray too far outside them.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): You may have trouble allowing yourself or others to have fun. People learn better when they're enjoying themselves. You may have to monitor the right mix of enjoyment and discipline and that's a hard thing to do.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): You want to stay close to people you know, especially your family. You're apt to be fearful of the unexpected or of circumstances you can't control. The challenge is to improve your confidence and self-reliance.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): You have important work to do and you prefer being around serious people. You have little patience with distractions or with people who aren't as dedicated as you are.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You feel the need to keep busy today. You can be satisfied with ordinary work but you can stay active in leisure time as well. You enjoy being engaged, whether it's inner- or outer-directed.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You're prone to defer to others, stifling your own originality. This is probably not the best thing to do. Open up more and let people know what you're capable of. Better opportunities and responsibilities can come your way.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): You are in murky waters now. You fall back on strict childhood training in order to cope. You need to be aware that this may not be adequate so stay alert for situations that don't fit preconceptions.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You can take a role as a leader or moderator today. People look up to you, perhaps too much. You need to take responsibility, but in a limited fashion, and let others take on their own proper responsibilities.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You are sensitive to the possibility of failure today. You need to make an extra effort to avoid it so you must be willing to eliminate extraneous activities. Once you're finished, you can reward yourself.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You're prone to be satisfied with what you already know and not to be open to learning more or learning different. This can impede success, because adapting to new information is very important now.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Your romantic feelings are strong but circumstances can get in the way of connecting. It's important to keep your feelings under control, otherwise you'll only feel frustrated. Bide your time.

"Silence is the cornerstone of character."

-- Charles Alexander Eastman, OHIYESA SANTEE SIOUX

Be still and know. Anyone can verbally attack another. Anyone can be a smart aleck. Anyone can be angry and tell other people things that will hurt them. Anyone can be sarcastic, devaluating and belittling. It takes a Warrior to be silent. Silence is so powerful. Silence can be so loving.

My Creator, if I get into a situation today that needs me to respond with silence, help me to use my silence in a good and sacred way. In my silence, let me be talking to You and You talking to me. Silence is the way of the warrior

ARIES (March 21-April 19): You have a lot resting on success at your job. There is a lot of tension and anticipation. You feel that the way to go is to do something different from everyone else is doing.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Your personal priorities can conflict with professional demands. This isn't necessarily a bad thing but you have to be aware of your priorities. It may be that family member in distress needs you.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Many bureaucratic barriers come down for you today. Your contacts can increase, especially if you work at it, and some of these can prove helpful. You are very aware of the need for social networking.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): You want to have a fun and enjoyable time. Beware of people trying to move in on you and spoil the fun. Keep the choice about whom you let into your life; anyone trying to worm their way in warrants suspicion.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Having new friends and relationships is important to you. However, you feel conflicted about letting them in too close too quickly. You need time to assess people so keep them at arms' length so you can assess them properly.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You're attracted to spiritual ideals and may want to expand your circle of friends to include like-minded people. However, beware of people who are not grounded; you should learn ideals, and also learn to apply them to real life.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Professional success is important today but it has to be done in partnership with others. Let go of any ideas of competition. Focus on your personal goal and the bigger picture of a corporate goal.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): You feel the pressures of competition at work. Your best option is to change the rules of the game instead of going head-to-head. If you're a target, make sure you're not where they think you are.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You are attracted to alternative ideas. You feel something is lacking in the standard narratives you're being given, so you seek out what others are saying. At least two of these different ideas will get your attention.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You enjoy stories today. Your connection to the real world is a bit tenuous now. A movie or a book draws you into its world. For some, it's another person who has the air of intrigue and mystery.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Relationships are full of suggestion and counter-suggestions. Compromise has to be worked on or else a scenario that fits a lot of pieces together. Don't be put off by the difficulties of making agreements.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): You are strong on faith but are probably short on preparations. You need to supply the thinking and the initiative, since Providence can carry you only so far.

"It does not require many words to speak the truth."

-- Chief Joseph, NEZ PERCE

The truth shall set you free. This is the truth. When we speak the Truth, we do not need to be defensive. Truth needs no defense. When we speak the Truth, we do not need to attack because Truth cannot be attacked. It is so easy to want to manipulate or to be deceitful or dishonest. My head tells me I can get away with doing these things, after all everybody does it.

My Creator, today let me know Truth. Let me live Truth. Let me risk the Truth. Let me make the Truth sweet. Help me to make my word good. Let Your spirit and intent be added to by words. Let My thoughts be Truth

ARIES (March 21-April 19): You like to create surprises for people. You're in a better mood than yesterday and can enjoy playing pranks. You may require a definite project with a deadline to put creativity to good use.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You can break free of a rigid habit or idea but you need an impetus. Someone can tell you what you already knew but were unable to acknowledge. Once the liberating idea is brought out in the open, you go with it all the way.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): An unexpected partnership develops now. You are emotionally open and inclusive but anxious about certain development. Advice comes from someone whom you least expect to help.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): You're in a competitive situation in which you sense you're the underdog. Keep a low profile. Do what you must and try not to bring attention to yourself. You don't have many advantages, except for time.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): You want free-wheeling conversations. You want and need fresh ideas. A person with a radically different background presents you with challenges and opportunities. Explore alternative perspectives.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Humor is a great healer today. It's preferred because the alternative is to cry. Problems go over better if you can see the ironies involved. Such a light and distant perspective is emotionally healthy.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You're prone to repeat bad behavior, passing along ways you have been mistreated. You need to break the cycle and train yourself to be fair and just but not judgmental. Be firm, but not harsh, with people.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): You work well in partnership today. At work, you're the one who comes up with ideas. Some can prove far-fetched but that's what your partner is for: to take what works and screen out the rest.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Many relationships are transformed for the better today. Take the initiative by improving your behavior; let go of past habits and expectations. See how people respond to your openness, trust and good-heartedness.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Success is slow; people can mistrust you. You have to demonstrate reliability, which you think should be given automatically. Don't give in to resentment; be patient instead.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You are a compelling speaker and your charisma generally is very strong. Be mindful of this and so be aware that you are very influential. Be an influence for good; lack of awareness causes confusion and dissent.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): You feel successful at work. Your suggestions for making improvements are taken seriously. People like you. Take advantage of the day to advance your ambitions and set the stage for a promotion.

"That is not our way, to set yourself apart and talk about who you are and what you've done. You let your life speak for you. With the Mohawk people, wisdom is how you live and how you interpret what your mother and father, what your grandmothers and grandfathers have told you about this world - and then how you interpret that into the fact of living every day."

-- Tom Porter, MOHAWK

It is said, how you live your life makes so much noise that people can't hear what you are saying anyway. It is so easy to see people who do not walk the talk.

Creator, I ask you today to help me be humble. Let me spend the day listening. Help me to not brag or gossip. Help me today not to do those things that seek attention or approval from others. I am only accountable to You, Oh Great Spirit. You will tell me the things I need to know. Let me learn the lessons from my Elders. Let me teach the children by example. Today, let me walk the talk

ARIES (March 21-April 19): You have a crisis moment reconciling the demands of work and the needs of your family. An urgent rethinking of your overall strategies is necessary. You can't be superficial and use Band-Aid solutions.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Fundamentally difficult problems require radical answers. You must probe deeply, past immediate issues into root causes, even philosophic assumptions. You can begin to orient to a newer, more real way of thinking.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): A lot of your attention is on how successful is on how successful people are relative to yourself. You can open up issues of jealousy and one-upmanship this way. How successful are you relative to your true happiness? That's what you should be concerned with.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): You have intense feelings today and this affects your relationships for good or ill. You include some and exclude others, often for reasons that make no sense. Be even-handed in your treatment.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): For some, health issues, especially allergies, are a concern. Certain social issues cause more general alarm. Activism must be combined with a spiritually centered mind-set.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): An external event can cause a strong reaction from you.

You're involved in a general sense of upset now and this is a chance to offer your ideas and your resources toward a cause you favor or an issue that concerns you.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You have overwhelming needs at both work and home. Those with a strong constitution can handle the stress but many are in danger of being overwhelmed by the demands of one or both. Appeal to others' sense of personal responsibility.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): You think of many questions but must develop enough confidence to ask them aloud. Keep at it until you have all the information you need, mindful of whether it makes sense and fits all the facts.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Your attention is dominated by finances today. A major change or the perception that one is coming can fray your nerves. This is a wake-up call to get active and make the changes you want.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You have a sense that an important phase of your life is ending but you should also be aware that another is beginning. If not, you should be taking charge of the changes so that life becomes better.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Your focus tends to narrow to material needs. You must make extra effort to open up to the spiritual or religious dimensions of life. Bad feelings are a sign that you are too closed off.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): You are stressed over having enough money or about your standing in an organization. If you pay attention to troublesome issues with substantial action, you can come out ahead.

"When you are in the woods, you cannot ever be lost. You are surrounded by friends and surrounded by God."

-- Joe Coyhis, STOCKBRIDGE-MUNSEE

Every plant, every animal, every insect, every bird, every tree is made up of God. God is life and everything is alive. When you are hunting, remember all nature is your friend. All nature has purpose. All nature participates in the life cycle. Nature communicates; Nature talks; Nature listens; Nature forgives; Nature respects; Nature loves. Nature lives in harmony. Nature follows the law. Nature is kind. Nature is balance. The woods are alive and beautiful. She is our friend.

Great Spirit, let me honor and respect the forest and all the life it contains

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Problems tend to make you self-pitying today. It's very important to step back and perceive any ironies involved. You need to exercise patience self-examination and have a better appreciation of ethics.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You react to provocations today even though they don't concern you directly. Someone or something you're invested in seems to need a defense. Just be sure it's really worth your time to get involved.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): You enjoy being in a large group of people. You like nurturing talent and helping people be at their best. You look at the details that create an overall impression, with an eye toward improvement.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Your connections with people are important. It can seem as though other people drive your actions because you can't help getting involved in their lives. At the very least, take care of your own health.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): You're apt to fear success because of unexpected responsibilities. This shouldn't stop you from doing better, however. You can adapt to any new range of duties and situations.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Your concern for others' welfare easily slips into trying to control them. You're very easily irritated and people have trouble understanding your moods now. Strive to be patient and even-tempered.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Worries develop now. You feel insecure, which should motivate you to improve rather than hide. Instead of worrying about what people think about you, pay attention to becoming the person you want to be.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): You can feel overwhelmed. You try to match sufficient resources to the demand. Feeling that you are falling behind, anxiety can set in. An action plan is necessary to counter a sense of helplessness.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You have more faith in someone else's opinion than your own. You need to have ways to determine who is more right. It shouldn't be a matter of faith, trust or acquiescence to authority.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You are rash, getting into situations without knowing how to deal with them. Stay in familiar territory where you have certainty and control. Once you step outside that you have great risks.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You are highly conscious of the potential to win or lose. Some are complacent; others are fearful. Strike a moderate mood by being confident but prepared. Helpful friends can suggest scenarios you can't imagine.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): You are irritable and on edge today. Be extremely careful with people as arguments can quickly erupt. Bend over backward to say nothing if you can't say anything kind. Exercise extreme restraint.
