HOROSCOPE

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

Friday, Feb. 7, 2020:

This year, you allow yourself to be more sensitive, yet you remain logical and efficient. Others marvel at how easily you blend this combo.

ARIES

(March 21-April 19 Attention to work seems to slide away as you focus on individuals in your life and how to spend the weekend. Make an important long-distance call in the afternoon.

TAURUS

(April 20-May 20) Important calls head your way in the a.m., when you and others are focused. Late afternoon, you might be more tired than you realize. Give yourself some space to enjoy the next few days and honor what is occurring around you.

GEMINI

(May 21-June 20) Keep reaching out to someone who understands what might be occurring financially. By afternoon, you might not want to follow through on an agreement made in the morning. Give yourself some space here.

CANCER

(June 21-July 22) You might not understand where someone is coming from in the afternoon. Conflict could arise around spending and funds. How much do you need to spend in order to make an impression on a key person?

LEO

(July 23-Aug. 22) In the morning, you might be in a quandary as to how to proceed with a personal matter. If that is the case, do nothing. Your sense of humor emerges later in the day when you realize the answer was obvious.

VIRGO

(Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Use the a.m. to the max. You will have the unique ability to get an agreement out of a group that normally has so many views, no one can find a consensus. Move quickly.

LIBRA

(Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Continue to take the lead. You will want to clear out some work quickly before lunch. Someone close to you could be contrary. You might be hesitant to give into this person, but it would be easier.

SCORPIO

(Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Embedded in your thinking is a certain element of creativity. You might need to get down to the basics preparing for a pending trip or meeting, which is likely to occur within the next week.

SAGITTARIUS

(Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Reach out for a loved one or friend at a distance. He or she might surprise you as they are making plans to get together with you midweek. Do not back off from an important discussion, possibly about finances.

CAPRICORN

(Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Defer to others, especially as it becomes clear that others will not. Go off and complete what you can that involves you. Note how your mood changes as the day ends. Do not stand on ceremony.

AQUARIUS

(Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Avoid reading the tea leaves and do what is obvious. Clear your desk, return calls and remember to schedule an important meeting. How you verbalize your requests will make a difference in the response.

PISCES

(Feb. 19-March 20) If you want to start the weekend early, go for it. However, do not make it a public announcement; be subtle. You do not want some lastminute work dropped on you. A loved one or child is delighted by your plans.
