> Being a Realtor in a tough market is certainly a challenge. Having been in the business for several years I am constantly amazed at how much there is still to learn. By staying in touch with past clients and current ones it has broadened my horizons farther than could have imagined. With the help of my broker,Tony Hubbard and the vast resources and tools he provides at Coldwell Banker Tony Hubbard Realty, it does make this job much easier. Being a part of Coldwell Banker Previews is one of the ways I have stepped out away the rest to make a name for myself. Not only in South Lake County, Clermont to be specific but in the Central Florida area. The exclusive group of certified PreviewsÂŽ Property Specialists make up less than 10 percent of the more than 117,000 Coldwell Banker Sales Associates worldwide I was also awarded with the FIVE STAR SERVICE PROFFESIONAL for overall customer satisfaction. I scored among the highest in overall satisfaction in my market area based in research with clients, peers and industry leaders. This is an exclusive award, given to only 7 percent of professionals in a given industry and market area.

TXTing & Driving: Should Florida Punish Those who are ‘Distracted’? By: Mark NeJame, with contribution by David Jancha an associate with NeJame Law (NeJame, LaFay, Jancha, Ahmed, Barker, & Joshi, P.A.) Read more at: StyleToMe.com

> I think many of us will admit that we have used cell phones to either: talk, text, or email while driving. I also believe we can admit that it can be very distracting! However, in today’s technological age and from a business perspective, immediate access to information is essential to running an efficient and effective business. Likewise, from an attorney’s prospective; I have seen firsthand the damage that can be caused to not only property, but also individuals and their families by distracted drivers. Whether the distraction is caused by a cell phone, a GPS device, reading a book, watching a DVD, personal grooming, application of ‘makeup’, misbehaving children, consuming food, or even alcohol or drugs; the results can be devastating if not deadly. Some of our State Representatives have requested legislation to address the issue of ‘texting and driving.’ (For example, Senate Bill 158). There are clearly a myriad of approaches that can be considered to address the issue: a total cell phone ban while driving; a law limiting a driver’s use of cell phones and messaging devices (require ‘hands-free’ devices); or a total ban on texting but not outlawing phone calls by drivers’ are just a few options.

styletome.com

What must be determined is how to address ‘distractions.’ Should punishment be criminal and subject the offender to jail and fines? Or if a law is imposed should it be a nonmoving traffic violation with a fine? Or should it be a moving traffic violation with a fine and points assessed against a driver’s license? If a law is passed, two concerns arise. First, would the law create yet another basis for a traffic stop which puts both the driver and officer at risk? According to the Florida Highway Patrol in conjunction with the Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles, during a period from 1996 to 2000, motorists in Florida crashed into working law enforcement vehicles that were either stopped or parked along Florida roadways 1,793 times, resulting in five deaths and 419 injuries. We have all seen the “MOVE OVER LAW” signs on the highway; but we have also seen that very few people actually “move over.” This brings me to the second concern: Would the law likely have any deterrence? Florida Statute 316.1936 makes it a noncriminal moving traffic violation for any driver or passenger to possess or consume an open container of an alcoholic beverage in a motor vehicle operated in the State. Un-

fortunately, many drivers continue to be accused of driving under the influence. It can be argued that the open container law was, at least in part, enacted to deter impaired drivers. In my experience, there seem to be vast number of people still being accused of DUIs in the Great State of Florida. Some people claim they drive and text without even taking their eyes off the road. Many State and private agencies have policies in effect to deter or restrict their employees from distractions such as texting. So what is the solution? I think the only simple answer is: If you’re going to use your phone to call or text (or be distracted in any way); do the right thing and pull over or into a parking lot. This is the only guaranteed approach that will work. Drive safe Orlando! <

*The opinion of the author does not always reflect the opinion of Orlando Style.

Orlando Now

> Orlando is a world-renowned brand that puts smiles on the faces of families and creates excitement for all ages. In 2010, we decided that our company, the Orlando/ Orange County Convention & Visitors Bureau, Inc. (Orlando/Orange County CVB), needed a new identity; one that reflected our number one goal; to bring business and leisure travelers to Orlando. On December 17, during our 2010 Annual Meeting we announced that we changed our name to Visit Orlando. It is the job of our team to showcase our great destination to consumers. More than 46 million came in 2009 to experience all that Orlando has to offer. Our new name – Visit Orlando – reflects our organization’s mission and strategic focus of increasing overnight leisure and business visitation to the destination through worldwide sales and marketing initiatives. The change also reflects a shift within destination marketing organizations to adopt simpler, more relevant names for a global audience.

George Aguel, past chairman of Visit Orlando and Paul Tang, chairman of Visit Orlando announced the name change at the Annual Meeting in December.

Introducing Visit Orlando By: Gary C. Sain President and CEO, Visit Orlando Read more at: StyleToMe.com

styletome.com

The bottom line is that ‘CVB’ doesn’t have the same recognition and meaning as it once did in today’s lexicon. It doesn’t reflect the vibrancy of the Orlando experience or the focus of the organization. To ensure our ongoing global success, we wanted a 21st century name that would be easy to remember and enunciate, and ultimately communicate the desired action we hope consumers, meeting professionals and meeting attendees take – to visit Orlando. Extensive research was conducted through focus groups and quantitative research with consumers, travel professionals and meeting professionals to ensure that Visit Orlando would convey a positive message for the

destination and be understood throughout the world. The new name also positions the company to have one name globally. Along with a new name, a new company logo is currently being designed and will be unveiled soon. Additionally, a newly updated Orlando logo will be unveiled. So what does this mean for Orlando residents? We hope that residents and visitors will better understand the focus of the organization and what we do on a daily basis. Ultimately, Visit Orlando is the communities’ destination marketing organization. We work for the benefit of our community, partners and funding partners. We are proud to represent the number one destination in Orlando and an industry that supports more than 400,000 jobs. And for every 85 incremental visitors, we create one new job. In addition, in March we’ll launch a new version of our website VisitOrlando.com. This new website has greater information and tools for visitors, but it’s also a wonderful resource for residents. I encourage you to check out the new site and see what great amenities for residents the hospitality industry has created.You may be surprised by all the things there are to do right in your own backyard.

Spotlight on the law

> Frank Hamner never thought about being a lawyer growing up. As a child, his parents took him camping in state and national parks all over the country, prompting such a love for the outdoors that he always wanted to be a park ranger. Even before graduating from high school, he answered his call for adventure by enlisting in the United States Navy.After an exemplary enlisted career, Frank was chosen for a commissioning program available to only the top 5% of all enlisted personnel. He attended Auburn University, obtaining a Bachelor of Science degree in Electrical Engineering and embarking on a Naval career that would span some 22 years.

It was only when he left active duty that he began looking for a second career. By this time, he had married a local Winter Park girl, Lauren Frey, and was heavily influenced by his admiration for her father, Lou, to follow in his footsteps and seek a law degree. Graduating in 1995 from the University of Florida College of Law, he was a Presidential Scholar, Trial Team Outstanding Graduate and Attorney General of the Student Honor Court. In the sixteen years since, Frank honed his skills as a litigator at one of the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s largest and most prestigious law firms where he represented clients like Westinghouse and Lexmark in trials in both state and federal court, then starting his own practice, Frank A. Hamner, P.A. AVÂŽ rated by Martindale-Hubbell, he is listed in their Bar Register of Preeminent Lawyers and has been featured in the Orlando Business Journal, Florida Trend magazine and Orlando Home and Leisure magazine as a top litigation lawyer.

Attorney Frank Hamner Read more at: StyleToMe.com

styletome.com

Frank focuses his practice on two fronts: a top shelf litigation practice focused on commercial and construction litigation and serving as in-house counsel to the Holler family, one of the pillars of the central Florida community, for their real estate and automotive dealership operations. He has teamed up with Attorney Brad Hester to further provide the highest level of real estate services to his clients in both the commercial and residential markets. In his limited spare time, he enjoys hunting and fishing and spending time with his wife and five daughters. Frank takes great pride in his practice and looks forward to helping his clients utilize his experience and ability to navigate their way to the best possible, and most cost effective, resolution of their case.<

> The IRS & Tax Law by Mark L. Horwitz

> The IRS contends that the tax system is voluntary however, it prosecutes those who intentionally do not pay taxes.

investigators routinely plan the questions after doing a preliminary investigation. Often the unannounced visit will result in an interview without the benefit of having an attorney present.

An IRS criminal investigator is required to identify himself when interviewing a person under criminal investigation and to tell that person of their right to have an attorney present and that anything said may be used in a criminal case.

The Law Offices of Mark L. Horwitz - A Professional Association 17 E. Pine St. Orlando, FL 32801 407-843-7733 www.mlhorwitzlaw.com

Any mistake or mis-recollection of facts can be interpreted as an intentional false statement which will factor prominently in the government’s contention that the taxpayer acted willfully to evade tax laws. Mistakes or perceived lies increase the chance of criminal prosecution.

While the amount of tax due is part of a criminal investigation, it is not the primary factor. The criminal investigator’s primary purpose is to determine if criminal charges can be filed.

When an individual speaks with an investigator the following may happen: the person may make a mistake when questioned about events that occurred years previously; the investigator may not understand the answers correctly or may make a mistake in taking

A person often learns of a criminal tax investigation when investigators appear without an appointment for an interview. The

notes; or on rare occasions, an investigator may falsify the report. It is interesting to note that the IRS investigators do not usually record the interviews. While there may be various reasons for not recording an interview, one reason is that at a trial, a defendant will be faced with what the investigator claims was said, rather than what was actually said and recorded. The law recognizes that anyone dealing with the IRS has the right to an attorney. Dealing directly with the IRS without a lawyer experienced in criminal tax matters poses significant risks that can result in the increased likelihood of criminal charges and may increase the risk of losing one’s freedom.<

> There’s a certain wonderful day in February that everyone spends with his or her sweetheart. And this year was the first in a while that I had someone special at home cooking dinner for me. Readers of this column know, a romantic evening at home is a rarity for someone like me. Orlando has so many great events and parties that I barely have time to change my clothes before the next big thing!

Grand Opening of 180 Grey Goose Lounge

In Case You Missed It Style Events, News & Gossip from around the city By: Alex Holland Read more at: StyleToMe.com

If you like bars with great views of downtown and signature cocktails, you would have loved the grand opening party for the 180 Grey Goose lounge on February 4th. Located on the rooftop of the Amway Center, this new lounge offers a new kind of luxury that I will be sure to take advantage of the next time that I attend an Orlando Magic game! The Bridges of Light Foundation is an incredible charity that raises money to benefit children who have experienced serious hardships. Working with Bridges of Light Foundation and the PACE Center for Girls, which provides women with better opportunities for education and training, Boyz II Men put on an incredible sold-out concert at Heat Tandoor & Lounge in downtown Orlando. Heat is an ultra-modern lounge with great drinks and super tasty food, so this event soldout fast, and for such a good cause! I’m a sucker for 90s hits, and Sugar Ray’s “Fly” is no exception. I remember bobbing my head along with my girlfriends when ‘Fly’ was on all of our play lists. Lucky for us, Sugar Ray performed at Velvet Sessions on the 23rd of February. I know that I talk about Velvet Sessions pretty often, but if you haven’t been, you owe it to yourself to check it out. Sessions is practically an Orlando institution, with its relaxed and intimate counter-approach to the typical rock show.

Speaking of awesome things to do in Orlando, lets talk for a minute about Portofino Bay’s Harbor Nights Romantico. Think wine, food, chocolate and arias – all in a gorgeous Italian setting. But even if you couldn’t make it out on the 18th for Harbor Nights Romantico, you should just check out Portofino Bay on ANY night. Close your eyes while you’re eating a bite of lasagna from BICE, and you’ll swear that you were in Italy. Classic and modern meet at the Festivals of Speed’s upcoming event at the Mission Inn Resort & Club from March 4th to the 6th. The Festivals of Speed puts together phenomenal events. They always have a ton of gorgeous luxury cars, which is why they’re telling people to come out and see all of the ‘rolling sculptures’. And if you’re not a car fanatic, you’ll still have a great time, enjoying the fine dining, golf, and skeet shooting. One other event in March that I want to mention is the Baterbys 2011 Winter Auction. This auction will be a mix of pieces from globally renowned artists and locals who are selling their art on consignment. Baterbys has good taste, so if you’re an art lover, you can expect a great opportunity to bid on some beautiful pieces. As usual, February is yet another month in Orlando that turned out to be a blast. Just tell the weather to warm it up a little though, it got a little too cold this past month – there were a few days when I had no choice but to put on a long-sleeve shirt! See you next month! < Know of a not-to-be-missed event? Do Tell!

takes place in large casks, tonneaux and steel. These wines are then artfully blended before bottling.The resulting wine is balanced with exotic stone fruit flavors and subtle, honeyed notes of marzipan. “I believe in the potential of Garganega,” says Antonio Fattori, “and I have always had the desire to create and experiment in an effort to unite scientific method and innovation with our historic traditions. We are dedicated to the search for more vibrant and attractive wines with the characteristic aromas and body of Soave.” In addition to Fattori, ten other Soave Consortium members were awarded various recognitions, indicating the increasing respect for and interest in Soave on the international level, particularly in England and the United States.

> In London, Antonio Fattori proudly accepted the award for best single varietal wine under £10 at Decanter’s World Wine Awards 2010. His 2008 Fattori Motto Piane Soave DOC beat out 11,000 entries from throughout the world for the honor. The Fattori winery was established in 1888 in Terrossa on the hills east of Verona. Its production is rooted in the quest to strike an ideal balance between a respect for tradition and a respect for innovation.

This award is the culmination of generations of experience and long-term investments in new vineyards, the revitalization of old vineyards, winery equipment and low-temperature fermentation techniques. The Garganega destined for Motto Piane is grown at 300 meters above sea level in the volcanic soils of Monte Calvarina. The grapes are dried for a month before pressing to concentrate Garganega’s unique characteristics. Separated into three lots, fermentation

“We’re getting great recognition in the American press and more American wine drinkers are discovering the versatility, value and great taste of our Soave wines,” says Soave Consortium President Arturo Stocchetti. “These numerous awards give us a great sense of satisfaction in the continual efforts of Soave producers and showcases the fruits of decisions implemented by the consortium in the quest for quality.” <

New Book ‘The Plan’ Reveals Proven Method for Achieving Personal, Professional and Financial Success

styletome.com

> It’s official - money alone doesn’t buy happiness. A global Gallup poll found that, while life satisfaction rises with personal income, positive feelings are more strongly associated with other factors like feeling respected, having autonomy and social support, and working at a fulfilling job. But, just how does one achieve these seemingly disparate goals and be genuinely happy? The answer is revealed in “The Plan” (paperback, $14.95 U.S.) – a precision how-to manual detailing specific steps required to achieve personal balance, career success and financial strength. Co-authored by international business life coach John M. McKee and esteemed business consultant Helen Latimer, The Plan shows readers how to employ the same time-tested techniques used for decades

by many of the most successful individuals, celebrities, and business organizations around the globe. “There is a rampant misconception that being ‘successful’ will also lead one to be ‘satisfied,” said McKee. “While most can articulate what makes them feel successful, like their jobs, how much money they make or have, or the material possessions they own, it’s rare when someone will boast about how joyful they feel about their job or the relationships in their life. Many will lament that, although they ‘make a nice living,’ they did not follow aspirations they had as a child or young adult, or that they dread getting ‘back to the grind’ on Mondays. This book changes all of that, helping readers achieve their heartfelt goals and experience true satisfaction in all facets of

their life, irrespective of current circumstances.” In addition to enlightening anecdotes and well-honed insights based on both authors’ personal and professional experiences, The Plan includes systematic worksheets, tools and exercises that help readers uncover and eliminate unproductive behaviors, and discern authentic feelings about their current life – the good, the bad and the ugly. The Plan is available in select bookstores throughout the North America and the United Kingdom, or online at ThePlanSite. com, www.JohnMMcKee.com www.Amazon.com, www.BarnesandNoble.com and www.Chapters.Indigo.ca.<

One of the reasons the Wicked musical has captivated audiences worldwide is that it is a Wizard of Oz prequel story, adapted and reinvented from Gregory Maguire’s novel about a green woman coming of age in Oz. But more than that, it’s a moving tale of two witches and a dazzling green-themed spectacle. The official blurb in press releases states: “Winner of 26 major awards including the Grammy Award and three Tony Awards, Wicked is the untold story of the witches of Oz. Long before Dorothy drops in, two other girls meet in the land of Oz. One, born with emerald-green skin, is smart, fiery and misunderstood. The other is beautiful, ambitious and very popular. Wicked tells the story of their remarkable odyssey, how these two unlikely friends grow to become the Wicked Witch of the West and Glinda the Good Witch.” Completely Satisfying - new musical in a long time‚ (USA Today). On Broadway and around the world, WICKED has worked its magic on critics and audiences alike. WICKED is Broadway’s biggest blockbuster‚ and the defining musical of the decade (The New York Times).

> Advancing a career built on a long list of number one hits, Britney Spears is introducing her much-anticipated seventh album “Femme Fatale” on March 15th. The new album comes two years after the release of her last, “Circus” and her grandiose world tour. Exclusively available as a digital download on the iTunes store, “Hold it Against Me,” the album’s first single has charted the highest number of radio plays in a single day, reassuring doubters of the global superstar’s comeback that she’s here to stay.

Femme Fatale By: Cathleen K. Bode Credits: Flavia Robinson Read more at: StyleToMe.com

Spears herself described the new album as “sexy, strong, dangerous, mysterious, cool and confident” and she added “I’ve poured my heart and soul into this album over the last two years and put everything I have into it.” Masterminds in the pop music industry, Dr. Luke and Max Martin, served as the project’s executive producers. “Femme Fatale” will be released by Jive Records and envisioned an electronic and grimier sound for the “Circus’s” follow-up. A heavy social media campaign has created a real frenzy among the pop star’s fans over the release of the album’s cover and music video debut shot by Jonas Åkerlund. The video is “a sexy, edgy dance piece showing Britney at peak form and ability” as stated on a sales-solicitation sheet created by her label. Over the course of a 14-year striking solo career she has experienced many highs and lows, between professional achievements and personal struggles. Including having five No 1 debut albums and the unforgettable

scene of Spears shaving her own head, while going in and out of rehab facilities. But she seems to have put it all behind her, reached stability and taking the driver seat of her own life. After riding a dangerous roller coaster there and back, “Femme Fatale” is a fitting name that translates into female empowerment, taking charge, confidence, and sex appeal. She uses her fans as a main source of inspiration “this album is for you, my fans, who have always supported me and have stuck by me every step of the way! I love you all!” said Spears. At 29 years old and mother of two little boys, Sean Preston and Jayden James, with 29 top 40 hits on record, Spears won the 2008 Video of the Year VMA awards for “Piece of Me,” marking the return to the top of her game. Since then fans have been able to enjoy many other hits from their pop idol, including “Womanizer,” “3,” and “If you Seek Amy.” Her almost year long world tour “Circus Starring Britney Spears” which she embarked on in 2009 had a total gross of $131.8 million. She performed across the US, Australia, Canada and Europe. Apart from entertaining, Britney’s business side recently launched a new addition called Radiance to her collection of fragrances as well as a clothing line with Candie’s for Kohl’s. With so many amazing happenings in her career, it’s hard to predict what’s next!<

So! Has your Sun Sign at Birth Really Changed? By: Dikki-Jo Mullen, Astrologer & Parapsychologist For more info email Dikki-Jo Mullen at: skymaiden@juno.com Read more at: StyleToMe.com

> Astronomer Parke Kunkle of the Minnesota Planetarium has been in a state of shock during the second week of January 2011, a recent newspaper report states. So have the many professional astrologers around the world. Kunkle upended what many who follow astrology knew about their birth signs when he announced to the Minneapolis Star Tribune that the stars are no longer aligned in the heavens as they were 5000 years ago. Major news networks picked up on this along with every TV talk show and newscast in the country, and in most of the world has been abuzz. Astrologers have been perplexed, bemused and amused at the volume of response and many questions this has generated. Kunkle is glad to have people noticing the stars he says. The general consensus among astrologers of course is that this is invalid and hardly a surprise. Every so often there has been a similar news flash saying that astrology as we all practice it has changed. We can‘t be the signs we always thought we were anymore. The Sun Sign (familiar birth signs) has changed to

styletome.com

the one preceding it and/or the Zodiac has been invaded, perhaps by Cetus the Whale or Orphicus the Serpent Slayer. Like the Wheel of the Year, the solstices and equinoxes in season shocking headlines create waves for a few days. Then suddenly, they fade, becoming yesterday‘s news for another decade or so. Is there any real problem here? Well, not in this stargazer’s opinion. Consider this … the moment your life began, that place and time in the cosmos when you took your first breath, is when your horoscope is calculated. It hasn’t changed. Actually in the pattern of the seasons, the astrological calendar that oversees the flow of life, nothing has changed. We can however look at the sky picture from different perspectives, there are numerous zodiacs used to chart the heavenly wisdom, which have been developed by different cultures around the world. Has Your Sun Sign Really Become Different?

horoscope

Sun Sign or popular astrology, like we use in the magazine columns uses the Tropical Zodiac, based on the tropics of Cancer and Capricorn, the midsummer and midwinter solstice points. Yes, the first degree of the sign Aries has gradually shifted backward a fraction each year against the starry backdrop of deep space and the constellations in the sky. This effect is called the precession of the equinoxes. The length of time required for the Earth to swing its axis in a full circle backward through the zodiac is a period of about 26,000 years. So each of the world ages takes about 2000 years or a little more to move around the Galactic Center of The Milky Way. This Great Age Circle is illustrated as we refer to the end of the Age of Pisces, which began, with the rise of Christianity. We are now beginning of the Age of Aquarius. Metaphysical and magical people will find this concept familiar. Is this a source of concern about the validity of astrology? Well, I wouldn’t think it is. Human nature (Yes, that‘s you!) is about

who you are and the external world doesn‘t change that essence of the essential self. There are diverse opinions about the zodiac. Where do we draw and measure the signs/constellations? If, like most spiritualists, you are in tune with the summer and winter solstices as well as the spring and autumn equinoxes then you can breath a sigh of relief. The Zodiac cycle starts with the springtime and Aries. What you read in astrology columns and books will relate to you and your life and character. In India there is a type of astrology called sidereal astrology, which does allow for the shifting vernal point in the Great Year. There is about a 23 to 24 degree difference, with some controversy as to how this is calculated, from the familiar tropical zodiac. This is called the Vedic Zodiac. On some level both zodiacs will work, the life style and philosophy of the seeker can be a deciding factor. Try subtracting 24 degrees from each placement in your natal chart to see if the chart seems to have more clarity for you, then go from there.

Meanwhile there is no need to mess up the beautiful pieces of the cosmic pie by awkwardly inserting an Orphicus, a (shudder) Serpent Slayer, into the line up, creating a division of 13. Who knows, it might even be unlucky! Auriga The Spider and Centus the Whale are other constellations hovering nearby. Perhaps they’ll get jealous and each wants a chunk of the celestial pie too. No, I feel comfortable with the classical twelve signs of the year. In harmony with the seasons of our lives, each watching over the yearly rising of buds and falling of leaves, imparting wisdom to guide humankind just as they have for the past five thousand years. <

Mercury enters your birth sign on the 9th. Plans to travel will be finalized. Select a variety of mix and match separates for beachwear. You’ll want to change your look often. Bright rose is your love and luck color for early springtime. Sort through your maps and magazines. Plan to display a collection of the most interesting ones in a vintage magazine rack or small book case in a corner of the family room. This will be an excellent conversation piece as well as serving as a source for ideas and inspiration about the heights you are about to achieve. Lucky days: 23

Venus brightens your career sector most of the month. Accept invitations from co workers, new loyalties are strengthened. Business and pleasure combine with élan right now. Redecorate your home office, display trophies, certificates of achievement and framed thank you notes or cards of congratulation. This will encourage you to keep moving forward. A pale lime green straw hat is the perfect accessory for the beach, protecting you from the Sun as well as adding a note of mysterious elegance. Add a pair of deeper green sunglasses and head to your favorite ocean front party spot on the 17th. Lucky days: 10, 17, 27

A strong Mars aspect attracts you to competitive situations. Decorate a patio or recreation area with sports memorabilia or adventure photos. Add some raffia straw mats in bright colors to create a casual mood. Humor is essential right now. Add whimsical bows or scarves in a variety of dots and stripes to your beach wardrobe. It’s a good idea to lighten up, perspective helps you to become less stressed and intense. Offer a few compliments, a kind word from you can open a door or remove a barrier. Lucky days: 1, 11,29

Several planets move in and out of your 9th house this month. Your thoughts are faraway from the here and now. Traditional Hawaiian prints would appeal to you in selecting beach fashions. Another choice would be a sleek black one piece suit suggesting a European look. You would enjoy art with a spiritual mood in your home library. Place a lucky tiki statue on a prominent shelf. Consider a framed photo of a medieval cathedral. Add a stained glass window during home renovations. Install it so that the bright colors of the rising or setting sun illuminate your surroundings. Lucky days: 3, 13, 21

Neptune is completing an opposition to your birth sign. Others are elusive and mysterious, read between the lines to discern where they are coming from. Be wary of advice if it clashes with your own sense of what’s best. Follow your personal sense of style, not the fashion pace set by friends. Mirrors are the ideal new purchase for your home now. Use Feng Shui guidelines to place them so that they reflect light into dark corners, especially in the northern portion of your home. Small twinkle lights draped on a plant or in an out of the way nook add dimension. Lucky days: 15, 24, 25

Early in the month several planets oppose you, including Mercury. Associates can be a bit uncooperative. Negotiate with others and listen carefully. By the 10th differences are resolved.The Full Moon on the 19th is in your birth sign. You will be at the center attention then and can make quite an impact on others. Swim wear in periwinkle blue with silver beads would be perfect to take along on a Full Moon weekend cruise. Look in an out of the way gift shop for collectible antique masks to decorate your foyer. Looking for truth beneath surface appearances is a theme in your life now. Lucky days: 10, 19, 27

Worries and pressures are lessening a bit, as serious and sober Saturn has turned retrograde in your birth sign.This offers some peace and respite from the responsibilities which have weighed heavily early in the year. You are thinking about time and how to manage it. Invest in a novel clock, perhaps one with chimes or an interesting mechanism. Add a mini coconut palm tree in a brightly decorated terra cotta container to your patio. Coconuts are sacred to Venus, your ruling planet and will bring you good fortune. Fragrances are powerful and healing now. Add an aroma therapy diffuser to your home or work place. Lucky days: 2, 20, 28

Your creativity is at a peak, a stellium of planets is gathering in your 5th house of hobbies and artistry. An avocation can become a new career. Express yourself. How about grouping a display of antique musical instruments in your den? Water signs are involved, so you would also enjoy assembling an aquarium or adding a seascape to your home. Add a basket of shells and sea glass which you collected while vacationing in Martinique. Deep coral is an excellent color choice for new resort and beachwear. Lucky days: 6, 22, 31

Drift and dream early in the month. Jot down ideas and impressions about the future. You might require extra sleep. Once spring begins on the 20th everything changes and your energy level will sky rocket. It will be easier to get projects underway. A faux animal print (what about zebra?) beach cover up would be a good choice. Add a khaki safari style hat with a band of matching fabric. A new exercise area for your pampered pets is a priority. You’ll want your furry or feathered friends to be safe, yet be able to enjoy some sun and fresh air as the last of the winter’s chill vanishes. Lucky days: 6, 15, 24
