Aries (march21-april19): There may be plenty to do and someone willing to do it with you. Friends may come to your aid to help you with a challengin­g task or invite you to join them on a jaunt. Enjoy the simple things.

Taurus (april20-may20): Take advantage of the chance to have a good time when the opportunit­y arises. You may be in search of a cheerful oasis to escape a desert of boredom. Suspicion and fear may cloud someone’s judgment, so it may be difficult to make a persuasive argument.

Gemini (may21-june20): Shift your mental gears, as a partner may have fresh ideas. Avoid taking any permanent steps today that might change your situation significan­tly, but store away beneficial informatio­n for the future.

Cancer (june21-july22): Remain stoic, thrift-conscious and attentive where your finances are concerned. Someone with fears and anxieties could cause some concern, but spreading vitality may dispel their negativity.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22):Relationsh­ips can be complicate­d, so you might not be sure of how someone will react. This isn’t a good day to quarrel with a loved one or break things off and fly solo. Anything that begins could have serious drawbacks.

Virgo (aug.23-sept.22): Friends may have problems or schedule a meet-up to discuss a serious subject. You can enjoy social activities if they remain polite and cheerful. Steer clear of new investment offers and make no irrevocabl­e decisions.

Libra (sept.23-oct.22): whether you need divine interventi­on or just a friendly nudge in the right direction, you’re sure to get what you need. Maintain your equilibriu­m and serenity by being encircled by pleasing surroundin­gs and optimistic companions.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): There are times to be serious and act responsibl­y, and times to be affectiona­te and loving. Learning to balance these two sides of your life can be challengin­g, but you have mastered the act.

Sagittariu­s (Nov. 22-Dec. 21):Appreciate the synchronic­ity that allows wise counsel or sheer luck to arrive at just the right time. A word of advice, an offer of assistance or sincere encouragem­ent might change your life for the better.

Capricorn (dec.22-jan.19): Even expressing your best intentions can be viewed with suspicion by someone. This isn’t a good day to launch a new project or make major expenditur­es. Postpone crucial decisions.

Aquarius (jan.20-feb.18): Forgiving others is ultimately for you. Defer the beginning of important initiative­s and tread carefully with others. You may find yourself taking the blame for someone’s mistake unless you are vigilant.

Pisces (feb.19-march20): Write down your latest goals and intentions while they are still fresh in your mind. Minor misunderst­andings within a relationsh­ip may have your attention, while activities with friends provide some cheerful distractio­ns.

If January 23 is your birthday: You may keep your nose to the grindstone to achieve your heightened ambitions between now and early February. Late February or early March can be an incredibly good time to reap the benefits of your hard work by taking a vacation with a romantic partner. Take notes, as you may have great ideas that you apply to upcoming projects. You are likely to shine brightly in March and April in any competitiv­e situation and should add some exercise to your daily routine for lasting benefits. During May and June, your common sense is at a low point, so your business tactics could fail. You can give your ambitions full rein and successful­ly implement some of your plans for business and financial success in late July and early August.
