What side of ourselves do we give the people in our inner circle? Is there more we can do to be a source of solace, comfort, loveliness, security and coziness? The question is answered in moments of inspiration today as the sun extends sweetness and good fortune to the domestic realm with a water sign trine to the Cancer moon.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). The fisher finds peace in the rhythm of casting the line and reeling in a catch. Today, you too will experience this sense of fulfillment, as your actions extend in perfect alignment with your goals.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). If you find yourself leaning toward obsessiveness, console yourself with the knowledge that there's not a great thing in the whole world that was made by a breezy person. The world is built by people who care a weird amount and can't let it go.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Strong feelings still knock you over sometimes. Take it as a sign that your emotional systems are hooked up and doing their job. And if this is connected to unwanted baggage, don't worry. These feelings will fade as you build a life that's bigger than them. You already are.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). The muses favor you now, and ideas will flow in a powerful stream. Share with a mentor who can guide you, a peer who can collaborate with you and a novice who can benefit from your insight.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Something that used to be so simple now seems very complicated. Take it as an opportunity to go back to the foundational level. That's where things are off. Go back to square one. An adjustment in timing, location or casting is the fix.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). The thing that your mind keeps drifting to? Perhaps it's time to reframe it: not as a loss, but as something that was, something that had its moments, and now belongs to the past. You can and will move forward without dragging it behind you.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Just when you feel sure about who you are, what you've accomplished and what's yours, a new situation has you doubting it. This is how you know you're growing. There's always room for change, and this keeps life fresh and your approach to it relevant.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). In love, we take risks. The more risk, the more love. The bond is only as strong as it is deep. Love is inextricably connected to vulnerability: to offering the softer parts of the heart and entrusting them to another.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You'll be glad that you didn't contort yourself to fit inside something that was never quite right for you. Here comes something much better that you wouldn't have been able to enjoy if your life was still filled by that thing that just wasn't a good match for you.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You'll get a beautiful confirmation that you're not alone in an endeavor or feeling. Kindred spirits are out there. Also, in a sense, your own clarity of purpose is like a fortifying and supportive entity -- powerful and real.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Just say yes. Get the experience. This is what will strengthen your belief in your own abilities. The first time might feel uncomfortable, but each repetition will teach you. One day, this will be something you can do in your sleep.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Let people help you. They may not give you exactly what you need or want for the moment, but time will show the exchange differently. In retrospect, you just might be amazed by what the most useful thing is.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (MARCH 8). This year's inspiration leads to bold reinvention. You'll deconstruct a project and, with fresh insight, build a masterpiece. Education sharpens your intuition, guiding you to uncanny opportunities. More highlights: Surprise invitations that take you somewhere extraordinary -- physically or mentally. New practices around movement will redefine your relationship with your own vitality. Pisces and Sagittarius adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 9, 14, 22, 37 and 48.

CELEBRITY PROFILES: James Van Der Beek demonstrated his commitment to cancer awareness by participating in "The Real Full Monty," a televised special where celebrities perform a striptease to destigmatize cancer screenings and encourage early detection. It's so like a Pisces to help the healing of others and oneself at the same time. Pisces are known for their versatility and empathy, which Van Der Beek displays in his roles onscreen and off as a husband, father and charitable advocate.
