With the horoscope talk in A Lovely Little Affair, Jestress just couldn't help herself. Using the birthdays of the actors (at least the ones I could find, I just filled in a few of the minor actors where I could, and in a couple of places characters ended up sharing a sign), she came up with a horoscope for the characters at the beginning of the episode. Just for fun, I'm not saying where each character fits in yet. See if you can guess. Aries – March 21 to April 19 – You think you have everything planned out, but events beyond your control will interfere with your plans. You know that appearances are deceptive, but this is true in more ways than one. Underestimating others can also be dangerous. Taurus – April 20 to May 20 – Things may be a little stressful at work right now, but there are distinct possibilities of romance on the horizon. Don’t feel obligated to change yourself to please someone else. Be sure to spend a little time with that special someone. Gemini – May 21 to June 20 – There is foreign travel in your future. You will soon be taking an unexpected trip. There is danger involved, but you will receive help from a relative as well as some unexpected help from strangers. Cancer – June 21 to July 22 – You have a chivalrous nature and a willingness to help others. Your efforts may not produce the results you want, but the effort will be appreciated nonetheless. You will take a short, unexpected trip to a damp place. Leo – July 23 to August 22 – You’ve got an axe to grind, but you have to learn to pick your battles carefully. Some things are just not worth fighting over. You like to get to the bottom of things, but this is one time when you may regret doing so. Sometimes, you’re so sharp that you could cut yourself! Virgo – August 23 to September 21 – At work, you will have to deal with difficult, judgmental people. Take a little pressure off yourself by delegating tasks to others. Libra – September 22 to October 23 – Things are a little crazy for you right now. The stars say that you shouldn’t rely on the stars when planning your love life. Take matters into your own hands! Trying to figure out the love lives of others is pointless. At home, play by the rules! Scorpio – October 24 to November 21 – Opportunities for romance are coming your way, but the first possibility that suggests itself may not be the ideal one. Business and personal life are going to collide. Stay open to social invitations. Sagittarius – November 22 to December 21 – Today may seem like an ordinary day to you, but not necessarily to everyone around you. You will soon attract the attention of a good-looking stranger, but getting involved may be a mistake. Take the opportunity to reacquaint yourself with poetry and literature. Capricorn – December 22 to January 19 – Be nice to others who may be in an awkward position. When you’re in their position, they’ll be less likely to tease you if you don’t tease them. Mind your p’s and g’s! Aquarius – January 20 to February 18 – You’re not easily bought, but you do have a price. Don’t be afraid to let others know what you really want. You may be helping someone else besides yourself. Pisces – February 19 to March 20 – There is a personal crisis that you must deal with, but you’ll find a way. There are also possibilities of romance for you, although this is probably not the best time to concentrate on your love life. The object of your affections may not be who or what you think. Remember to stay true to your principles!
