The Mercury/Neptune square speaks to the nature of service: To give superior service is to be quietly invisible, lulling the served into an illusion of their own accomplishment. The invisible is also forgettable. What's forgotten ceases to exist. So wake up. Appreciate. Take extra measures to pay homage to the grace of quiet things.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). A long walk has healing power for the body and mind. A few miles in, and what will start to kick in will be benefits that are better than could be brought through medicine, expert advice or special treatments.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You can't act on everything. It's fine to abandon some of the ideas. You're having so many, and they can't all be the best. But do keep track of them all. Record them in some organized way that will make it easier later to prioritize.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Bring up the positive. Build on what you're doing right. Make a good thing great. Your time is better spent in this direction than in the direction of trying to fix things. Start anew.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). And now for something new. You haven't experienced the phenomenon, so you might not see it coming or know what to do with it. That's what guides are for. They'll show up; you'll listen up.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Life gets instantly better when you widen your circle of compassion, and the improvements won't stop there. Note that being more compassionate doesn't automatically mean being more accommodating or compliant.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). There is endlessly more to know, but knowing things never made anyone smarter. It's applying intelligence well that matters. Stop thinking about it and dive in to get physical proof of your ideas.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Most people need a reason, but you've been known to, unbidden by external need or encouragement, reach inside yourself to take stock of the resources available in the depths. And here you go again...

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). When people give easily, it implies they have much more to share, establishing a magnetic charisma. Those who give less freely are indicating their limits. The erosion of mystery renders the gift and the giver less attractive.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). If you were the same to everyone, those close to you would feel undervalued. So you make sure that there are perks to being part of your inner circle that do not extend to the outer rings.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). The amount of honesty each person is willing and able to accept has to do with ego and emotional need. If a person needs to feel that something is true, they will, despite any evidence to the contrary.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Generosity energizes you. Though the help you give is substantial and much appreciated, the act of giving it is still worth more to you than the considerable value of the help itself.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You'll be aware of how your individual daily operations reflect the world at large. Every small move you pull off will represent the coming together of an incomprehensibly large-scale dance number.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (May 29). The solar return fashions spiritual glasses for you, allowing your third eye a more vivid and vibrant focus. This enhances your sensual experience, enlivens your body and invigorates your personal life. You'll connect more meaningfully and often. Notable moment: when you gladly pay the way for a loved one in September. Virgo and Aries adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 33, 8, 18, 30 and 2.

ASTROLOGICAL QUESTION: "I'm a Virgo with a Virgo moon. I've often felt socially awkward. I read books on how to "act normal" socially. But I never fail to always stick my foot in my mouth in some way and go home thinking about what I could have said. Sometimes, I can't sleep after a social event because I'm thinking about all I did wrong. Whether I drink alcohol or not doesn't seem to matter, except maybe I'm a little more obnoxious with a drink. Will I ever learn to have fun?"

What you may not realize is that most people have some degree of social anxiety. Even the people who look very much in control have secret doubts. And absolutely everyone says the wrong thing at times. There are dozens of misses in even the best and briefest social encounters, but that's not the point. It's the overall affect that matters — how people feel. Don't focus on what went wrong. Just try again. Being a Virgo, you are so self-critical that you never have to worry about offending anyone more than you already offend yourself. Your own psychic wrath is more punishment than any social situation could inflict on you.

CELEBRITY PROFILES: The rumor is that Daniel Tosh's tour rider includes the usual the usual food and drink items with an added request of a book that Tosh might like to read. Curious Gemini's crave constant mental stimulus. Tosh's natal Mercury in Gemini and Aquarius moon suggest a voracious intellectual appetite. Mars and Jupiter in Aries embolden Tosh against any backlash of his deliberately offensive comedic style.
