LOVE AND THE STARS

- JACQUELINE BIGAR

Aries (March 21-April 19)

You can handle any disparagin­g comments. Focus on the problem at hand; confusion surrounds even the clearest statements. If you do not understand what is happening, ask questions. Observers admire your attention to detail. Tonight: Take a strong role in a decision.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Uproar could surround your actions and decisions. Perhaps the issue is not what you say, but how others interpret your statements. Use your renowned precision when handling an intellectu­al issue. Be ready to back up a statement with action. Tonight: Break past barriers.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Be aware of the sensitivit­y of certain topics if dealing with matters involving your personal life and/or domestic problems. You might not be grasping the whole story, as a natural distortion exists within you. Take others’ comments seriously. Tonight: Stay close to home.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

You sometimes hold back and do not reveal what you think. Your emotional intensity is so high that you worry about someone misreprese­nting your feelings. Use your mind to get past petty issues or to become more reflective of who you really are. Tonight: Keep a conversati­on moving.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Take a hard look at an uncomforta­ble situation. You might wonder how to handle the issue. Do you want to avoid it? Could you consider being dominant and having others agree with you? By airing different perspectiv­es, you might clarify the issue. Tonight: Go with the moment.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Others might be especially positive right now. A partner or loved one inspires you to get past a selfimpose­d limitation. Your creativity flourishes once more. A new friend will manipulate you in order to get what he or she desires. Tonight: Act like there is no tomorrow.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Pull back and let others take the lead. The issue is not about being gracious, but about allowing others to understand the implicatio­ns of leading. A demanding family member tries to make an adjustment, but probably won’t succeed. Tonight: Let someone do a reversal without interrupti­on.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Zero in on what you want. Allow more fun and energy into your day. You sometimes get too serious, causing conversati­ons and projects to be much more difficult than necessary. A child or new friend could add a touch of confusion to your day. Tonight: In the whirlwind of living.

Sagittariu­s (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

You feel as if you cannot make any changes no matter what you do. Try a different route, since the present approach does not seem to be working. Open up to new ideas and a more dynamic tactic. Let go of what has not worked, and listen to new ideas. Tonight: Out late.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Stretch as far as you can, and you will start seeing the benefits. You might be feeling confused. Try verbalizin­g some of the questions in your mind. Soon, you will draw a conclusion that is viable and that works well for everyone, including you. Tonight: Say “yes” to an offer.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Your efficiency and ability to relate to others emerges. The universe gives you feedback as to what works. Do not allow someone to take advantage of your giving nature. Gain greater clarity about personal issues. Don’t hesitate to express your ideas. Tonight: Out and about.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

If in a competitiv­e situation, the other party might have the edge on you. This person’s determinat­ion pushes him or her. You could be too tired to make a move immediatel­y. Listen to others and weigh the suggestion­s. Allow your mind to deliberate. Tonight: Follow your heart.
