Gaming Landscapes
How they have influenced my life.
The development of gaming landscapes has been integral to the making of games whether they be console games or computer games.

Aries
You're with an animated, motivated bunch. This is the place where all talk leads to action. Are you ready to back up your big words with big deeds? Maybe you're not being graded on your performance, but your good intentions are on display. You don't appreciate the interference, but you recognize that group activity is the preferred way of getting things done. Leading by example inspires loyalty, just in case you're thinking of taking a shot at a leadership position. After all, a committed Aries in teamwork mode can rally people to do great things.
Back
Taurus
Take a long look at what you have. Count your friends. Review your investments. In some ways, you're much better off than you thought. In other ways, you could improve on the status quo. As long as you're thinking along these lines, it's a good moment to consider new strategies. When you air your thoughts, things get interesting. Someone has a problem with what seems like a perfectly good idea to you. Instead of going on the defense, try to get inside this person's thinking. He or she could have a perfectly valid point. Compromise now is easier than compromise later.
Back
Gemini
The Stars are all lined up in your court. Make up for lost time and missed opportunities. Your considerable potential is double what you can usually do. This is your time to stand up and be heard. At first, you may not be sure what the traffic will allow. Tentative effort meets with a standing ovation. If it's going to be that easy, you'll give them something to really cheer about. Your deeds are stellar. Your words take on a life of their own. If any dare to challenge you, your response will be swift and decisive.
Back
Cancer
Dreams are a real presence in your waking life. Your visions are always worth following, but this time it's a little more than that. Your brain is hard at work below the level of conscious thought. You definitely know what's happening, even though a casual observer would think that you're just daydreaming. You'll show them who has a grip on reality. Grab onto ideas when they poke through the surface. The stuff of fantasy is solid but malleable. Bend and shape the impossible into something that fits beautifully into everyday life. Your future lies in your sense of invention.
Back
Leo
You don't need to create a social scene. You were born into one. In this case, your dream vacation is the place you call home. For those who can't draw on genetic similarity, you always seem to accumulate a tribe of kindred spirits. One way or another, these people always end up in your house or close by in the neighborhood. Social animals like you are comfortable traveling in packs. No matter where you go, you'll always have something to eat and a place to sleep. Hospitality is the only currency accepted around here.
Back
Virgo
Some people are having fun, and others are thinking about money. You can't spend what you don't have, or at least you shouldn't. A bank statement makes you laugh, even if it's not exactly funny. It might also make you consider better places to put your money. That's something to pursue tomorrow, if it still feels like a good idea. For someone like you, ideas are a dime a dozen. It's the precise implementation of those ideas that really matter. Know that you're a valued partner or customer. Your signature is worth a lot. Your seal of approval is priceless.
Back
Libra
If it's wild and energetic, you want to be part of it. But your interest is more than that of some mindless party animal. You see this as an opportunity for self-promotion. Of course, you're nothing less than courteous and diplomatic. The people who serve your purposes may not even realize it until much later. Meanwhile, you're already on to the next thing. You're organizing and launching a trip with a partner or safe within a group that you know well. Don't worry about being too predictable, though. You're prepared for any new experience that may befall you.
Back
Scorpio
Something you do draws attention. No, you're not talking out of turn. You actually had some kind of psychic broadcast going. Even if this isn't what you'd call conclusive evidence, you're definitely a believer now. Be cautious about the powerful lure of a force that you barely understand, whether it's paranormal, scientific or as mysteriously obvious as love. A little bit of knowledge can be a dangerous thing if you're too lazy to do further research or just read the manual.
Back
Sagittarius
Your neighbors are making too much noise. You don't begrudge them their good time, but you really want them to keep it down. Your energy levels aren't up to their usual height, and you're not in the mood for the usual fun and games. Maybe you need a little TLC. If you can find quieter people, reach out to them for emotional support. If you feel like coming out to sit on the sidelines and watch, that's okay, too. No one will push you when you politely refuse to play.
Back
Capricorn
You're entitled to feel bewildered about your current run of luck. While you're certainly due for a change, the best way to get the ball rolling is a change of attitude. Show the world how deserving you are. Put your recent work on display. Better still, be useful and humble in some high-profile situation. Keep your eye on the prize and a hand out to help anyone else who could use it.
Back
Aquarius
It all comes down to family. You're proud of what your relatives do, and you're grateful for your heritage. Reconnect with cousins that you haven't seen in years. Sometimes you're closer in spirit to descendants of completely different bloodlines. If you want to invent a shared past, that's okay. The future can begin whenever you're ready. All those who wish to be part of this are welcome to join in. Keep things loose and free, and everybody's happy.
Back
Pisces
Home is where the heart is. It all depends where you wake up, and which side of the bed is the right one for getting up. If you're reading this later in the day, you probably didn't worry about those things. Sleeping late was a delicious luxury, and more of a necessity than you realized at the time. But now that you're in front of the computer, don't stay here. Get up and move around. Act on your ideas. Maintenance and improvement projects are best undertaken when you're excited by what needs to be done.
