inspiring travel ideas for your Sign

Pantyless photos, DUIs, prison jumpsuits...the tabloids' favorite bad girls rocked us and shocked us this year. Fast forward a few months and Nicole Richie is barefoot and pregnant, Paris Hilton carries inspirational books instead of a chihuahua, Lindsay Lohan stays on the wagon, and Britney Spears...well, that's another story.

So what's up with all the good behavior? Can a tiger really change her (prison) stripes? Here are a few of our astro-thoughts and forecasts for these paparazzi princesses in the months ahead.

Saturn Moved from Flashy Leo into Straight-Edge Virgo
When Saturn entered Virgo in early September, it marked a new chapter for everyone that will last until October 2009. For the two years prior, Saturn, the ruler of authority and the law, was in attention-hungry Leo, ruler of parties and drama. Translation: a lot of public scandals and Leo-fueled ego trips that ended with handcuffs and court orders. Now, Saturn is in bookish earth-sign Virgo, a much calmer place for this planet. The mass consciousness is shifting away from vanity and selfishness, and moving towared saving the earth, green living, intellectual pursuits and geek chic. (Sorry, wearing non-prescription tortoiseshell glasses doesn't count, ladies).


Britney Spears: The Long Arm of the Law
Sign: Sagittarius
Jupiter, the planet of luck and gambling, has been in Britney's sign, Sagittarius, this year. This can cause delusions of grandeur and a fierce need to express one's independence. Case in point: Britney's head-shaving incident and nonstop partying. Then, along came Saturn. On September 3, days before her disastrous VMA performance, tough teacher Saturn entered Britney's sector of career, fame and public image. Saturn rules authority figures -- like managers and judges. Her flopped show was Saturn's warning shot. Our advice to Britney: straighten up and fly right, or those supervised visitations will be the tip of the iceberg. If Brit plays by the rules, though, Saturn will reward her with the chance to regain public favor. She'll have to do it through hard work and consistent good behavior, one step at a time. This is not easy for an impatient Sagittarius, a sign that loves to indulge. Next year, Jupiter in Britney's house of self-esteem brings an opportunity to face her demons and insecurities. Let's hope she does.


Lindsay Lohan: Staying Sober with the Stars
Sign: Cancer
While daddy was on lockdown, and mom Dina was inking a reality show deal featuring her younger siblings, party-hardy Lindsay got support from expansive Jupiter. Jupiter, planet of luck and opportunity was in Lindsay's sixth house of health, fitness and clean living -- helping her finally stay sober. Cancers like Lindsay need a safe home, and perhaps rehab was where Lindsay found one.. Now, word on the street is that she's dating a guy with a bad reputation...again. On December 18, Jupiter will enter her seventh house of committed relationships for a year. Let's hope it helps her grow into a new type of guy. Saturn is now in her third house of siblings and communication. She may start projecting a more serious image -- or have to rescue her younger sibs from "mom-ager" hell, once they start filming their show where Dina attempts to make them into pop stars. Help!

 

Nicole Richie: Starting a New Life Chapter
Sign: Virgo
Virgos throughout the world are getting the message: it's time for a new life chapter. Since Saturn went into Virgo on September 3, Nicole's structure-loving sign has felt a strong urge to get life in order. It's time for Virgos to reinvent themselves as mature beings who want to be taken seriously. There may be some fuss and resistence along the way, as Virgo is the "helper" sign, never truly comfortable with all the attention. On the upside, lucky Jupiter has been in Virgo's fourth house of family and motherhood all year, giving many Virgos baby fever. Nicole's healthy new relationship and forthcoming motherhood are right in line with this planetary cycle. Pisces papa Joel Madden has had Jupiter in his committed relationship sector all year, helping him find a mate who brings out his best self. Surprise, surprise--it seems Nicole is ready for the real "simple life." The stars were truly aligned for these two! Keep going -- you're on the right track.

 

Paris Hilton: Going Deeper...In a Different Way
Sign: Aquarius
Fun-loving, friendly Aquarians like Paris can be uneasy with heavy emotions and deep soul-searching. However, with Saturn in her Scorpio-ruled eighth house of intimacy, privacy, depth and vulnerability since September, we're starting to see a new side of Paris. (Fellow Aquarius Justin Timberlake is getting more publicly sentimental these days, too.) While we've scoffed at the notion that the heiress has any substance, we may just eat our words. Aquarius is the humanitarian sign, and Paris will have plenty of opportunity to contribute her millions to a cause. We recommend she put her efforts there now. Headline a charity, like Elizabeth Taylor. Next year, old demons may resurface (another sex tape?) , so she's best off avoiding the cameras and red carpets unless it's for a noble, fully-clothed cause.
