LOVE AND THE STARS

Aries (March 21-April 19)

You might be feeling as if you need a change of pace. Give yourself permission to do just that. You have a strong sense of how to deal with a child, a co-worker or possibly a pet. You feel more secure even if you are not expressing your thoughts. Tonight: Play it cool.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Zero in on what you want. A key friend comes through for you but expects you to do your share in making a situation work. Open up to suggestions. You could be more in tune with what others want than you realize. Tonight: Join friends; celebrate the weekend.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Tension builds in odd ways. Much of it comes from your need to stay on top of a professional situation. You might be making demands of yourself that no one else is. Stop and rethink a decision. Tonight: A force to be dealt with.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Your feelings come out in a discussion. The other party sees life a lot differently than you do. By walking in this person’s shoes, you come to a new conclusion. You will come to a point of understanding and agreement. Tonight: Consider taking off.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

One-on-one relating is highlighted. Your ability to move through a problem also could be highlighted. At first, a partner might want to approach a purchase or financial agreement much differently. Do not settle; find a solution that works for both of you. Tonight: Let go and get into the spirit of the weekend.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

You cannot question your popularity. Many people come toward you. Some come for information; others seek your attention. By the end of the day, you cannot say that you have a lack of admirers and invitations. Be responsive to a close friend or loved one. Tonight: Say yes!

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Reach out for a friend or associate. As a question comes up, you find that you have an answer to the issue at hand. You might need to convince your cohorts of the rightness of your ideas. Tonight: Out with a work associate.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Your playfulness emerges when dealing with a fun friend, loved one or child. You seem unusually inventive and creative as you pop up with suggestions. Do not feel pressured to act in a certain manner. Tonight: A friend comes through for you.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Pressure builds, and you are likely to respond to others’ demands. A family member or roommate wants more time or something special from you, whereas a boss might want you to contribute more time to a project. You have your hands full. Tonight: Listen to your inner voice.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

You speak your mind loudly and clearly. Finding agreement will not be too hard as long as everyone involved is sincere about coming up with a solution. Play with different ideas. Consider the end results. Tonight: Join the gang for TGIF.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Be aware of the costs of continuing as you have. Though the situation and timing work on some level for you, financially you need to be careful. Do not offer up more than you can afford. Tonight: Invite a friend to join you.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

You are able to make an impression on a key person. You might be trying to get an agreement with certain people. This could involve your social life, rather than your work or something else. Tonight: All smiles.
