Youre now ready to put innovative twists on many old experiences. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- An important commercial involvement is not likely to be conducted along conventional lines. However, this departure from traditional methods could present you with a great opportunity. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -Although you might get paired up with a new and unfamiliar partner in order to pursue a mutual interest, youll enjoy every minute of it. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Your chances for success will be greatly enhanced if you truly enjoy what you are doing. It will be up to you, however, to make the love of your task the motivating factor.
