LOVE AND THE STARS

- JACQUELINE BIGAR

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Put your best foot forward. Understand what separates you from an authority figure. You simply might be less conservati­ve and more active than this person. You have a well-defined procedure when approachin­g a difficult or unknown situation. Know that you can blaze your own path! Tonight: Christen the weekend with friends.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Know when to back down and become less assertive. You are often stubborn and hold your ground despite opposition. This attitude could be the source of a problem right now. Defer and be willing to let others assume a stronger role. Tonight: Do for you.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Gemini can be quite the socialite. You could find that you might be unusually busy having a conversati­on about an important topic. Squeezing in other social activities could be hard. Tonight: Decide to lighten up the moment.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Take charge and deal with a problem that keeps rearing its ugly head. You have what it takes to smooth out a rough spot. Be aware of what a parent, older relative or loved one wants. Maintain a sense of humor, as you might hear commentary you would like to erase from your mind. Tonight: Being noticed wherever you are.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Keep reaching out for more informatio­n and opinions. The bigger the selection, the better your responses can be. You see more options than most people. You are also willing to take a course or two if the experience will open you up to new thinking. Tonight: Start planning a trip or weekend away in the near future.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

One-on-one relating takes you down a new path if you are open to a new type of adventure. How you see a new possibilit­y could radically change given time and space. The introducti­on to this experience is likely to come through a loved one or close friend. Tonight: Make it your pleasure to be with a favorite friend! Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Continue deferring to others. The time to reclaim the pulpit and let others know about your ideas isn’t quite yet. You could learn a lot about others instead. You will know when to move on a certain issue as a result. Tonight: Hit several different TGIFs. The mix and difference­s might be intriguing.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Pace yourself and get as much done as possible. You could be tired with the same old places, people and spots. In true Scorpion form, blaze a trail in a new direction. Changing the setting and the people could revive you in many different ways. Tonight: Let the fun begin.

Sagittariu­s (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

You might want to check in with friends to see what is going on. Your sense of humor comes out when dealing with an associate, co-worker or acquaintan­ce. Stop to have a conversati­on with this person more often. Tonight: Think weekend. Who would you most like to be with?

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

You have the ability to read between the lines and notice what was not shared. You also might want to ask a question to confirm a hunch. This activity could involve family, your home life and what you most want from a relationsh­ip. Tonight: Invite a friend or two over.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

You might want to reach out to someone you haven’t seen in a while. This person is part of your life, and you often act like siblings when you are together. Don’t take any statements about someone else as fact. Tonight: Catch up on news with friends.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

You could go haywire with your spending and not even be aware of the damages you are creating. Use good sense, even when treating someone to lunch. Choose a moderately priced restaurant. Tonight: Play away stress.
