Accept the fact that you feel more optimistic than usual. You don't have to understand it to smile and enjoy. And don't keep it inside your shell. Share this optimism with others.

LEO GOLFER: July 23 - August 22
Famous Leo Golfers: Lloyd Mangrum, Colleen Walker, Lori Garbacz, Duffy Waldorf
The more you can open to prowling after new ways of playing the game, the more financial success you achieve. The lighter your grip, the more good fortune flows towards you. Your physical abilities are strong, but only as long as you don't get lazy. Sometimes, too much of a good thing can be just too much. Remember the words of the great swinger, Miss Piggy: "Never eat more than you can lift!"
VIRGO GOLFER: August 23 - September 22
Famous Virgo Golfers: Ray Floyd,,Louise Suggs, Bernhard Langer, Isao Aoki
A time to get the details in place. Double check local rules at a tournament. Leave nothing to chance and when the time is right you will be able to call upon all your powers to perform at peak levels. Another Virgo will be there for you and understands. Don't be afraid to take a step back in your game plan. It may be the time out you need before making a big move to the next level in your golf proficiency.
LIBRA GOLFER: September 23 - October 22
Famous Libra Golfers: Tommy Armour, Val Skinner, George Archer Sally Little
A late summer golf safari may be in order. You'll not only play better on the road, but meet some new playing partners whose company you will enjoy off the course as well. Your entire being seems in tune, and the balance and harmony playing inside can't help but spill out into your ball-striking. This sweet energy is contagious and attracts birdies to your side of the scorecard.
SCORPIO GOLFER: October 23 - November 21
Famous Scorpio Golfers: Joyce Wethered, Gary Player, Peggy Kirk Bell, Fuzzy Zoeller
You may invest in new hardware and clothes. A big expense, but your golf may bring some unexpected income. Not necessarily from the putts you make, but from the playing partners who may help you discover some promised fairways to bigger success in your business. Don't hurry your back swing. And don't rush financial opportunity. Patience will be the strongest club in your bag this month.
SAGITTARIUS GOLFER:
November 22 - December 21
Famous Sagittarius Golfers: Walter Hagen, Shirley Englehorn Brad Bryant, Betty Grable
You do not function well at a slow idle, but it feels like everything is in slow motion. And the more you try to hurry up everything, the slower it gets. This could be a good time for a vacation away from all things golf-related. Being the quiet observer is not your natural style, but allowing yourself this luxury will pay off in more enjoyable golf and better ball-striking toward the end of the month.
CAPRICORN GOLFER: December 22 - January 19
Famous Capricorn Golfers: Mark O'Meara, Michelle McGann, Hubert Green, Brandie Burton
Your grinding, persistent approach to golf gets a real test. You are great at putting up with the slow, hard climb required to reach the top of your golf potential, but this may be a great month to head for the hills and enjoy a 5 mile hike without a golf bag. Breath some fresh air to clear a little of that overly aggressive energy that's crept into your golf swing. Go play miniature golf with some kids and don't take your own putter!
AQUARIUS GOLFER: January 20 - February 18
Famous Aquarius Golfers: Judy Rankin, Byron Nelson, Carol Mann Nick Price
Don't be surprised if your driving gets a little loose and wild for a while. Shorten your swing or stick with your 3-wood or 2- iron whenever possible. Your control of the rest of your game, particularly the short irons and approach shots will more than make up for what happens with the big stick. Some changes in your game you've been thinking about for a long time begin to take place.
PISCES GOLFER: February 19 - March 20
Famous Pisces Golfers: Gene Sarazen, Alice Ritzman, Sandra Palmer, Ian Woosnam
A great time for the more social side of the game. Group outings, golf-theme parties, outrageous formats for tournaments. Focus on the camaraderie of old friends and new playing partners who aren't afraid to dance to whatever music the golfing gods choose to play. Stay alert and open to the spontaneous ideas and actions of others. You'll find finances -- and your ball - on higher ground before the month is out.
