Week of March 23 to 29, 2014
ARIES You have a rather busy schedule ahead of you this week. Give yourself plenty of time between appoint- ments to avoid putting too much pressure on yourself. TAURUS You could decide to completely change your life on a whim. You may go back to school and envi- sage a whole new career. GEMINI The heart has its reasons, of which reason knows nothing! Even though you try to remain lucid when fa- ced with a very unusual situation, your heart dictates your actions and decisions. CANCER You have to do some negotiating in order to establish a good balance, whether it is at work or with friends, family, or others. Be willing to make some compromises. LEO A conflict at work inspires you to think about changing jobs. Take the time to weigh the pros and cons, and consult your loved ones before coming to a decision. VIRGO You’re going to be in the spotlight in one way or another. You are viewed by others with a great deal of respect because of a situation that could, in the end, transform your life. LIBRA It is highly likely that you decide to move. Perhaps it’s time to sell the family home, which is far too big since the children moved out. SCORPIO You have plenty to say for your- self and you express out loud what others only think. Someone may en- trust you with a rather unique secret. SAGITTARIUS People under this sign are supre- mely lucky. Solutions to your finan- cial problems are offered to you on a silver platter. You are on the right track to accomplish your goals. CAPRICORN There is lots of action on the hori- zon for this week. You may even have to rattle a few people’s ca- ges. You’re a pacifist at heart but the warrior in you has to show him- self sometimes. AQUARIUS You may feel the call of a spiritual practice. If you have any sort of spiritual gift, it goes into overdrive and you are able to see things more clearly. PISCES You are open to the influence of others, and so you find inspiration through one of your friends, who helps you transform you into the person you always wanted to be.

DIRECTIONS: With a swivel peeler, peel strips off the limes, and cut into thin slivers. Cover well and set aside. Squeeze the lime juice, and mix with the pineapple juice, sugar, soy sauce and cornstarch in a small, deep bowl. Fold the fish fillets in half and place in a large casserole, thinner ends of the fillets towards the middle of the dish. Pour over enough water to cover 1,3 cm (1/2 inch) of the sides of the fillets. Cover the dish loosely and cook for 2 minutes in the microwave, on high. Set aside and keep warm. Cook the sauce ingredients for 2-3 minutes on high, stirring often until thickened. Add the cooking liquid from the fish, strained. Stir in the pineapple chunks, lychees, green onions and lime rind. Add a pinch of salt and pepper and pour the sauce over the dish. Serve with fried rice or chow mein noodles.
