Horoscopes

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Thursday, June 29, 2017: This year you make a significant difference in any area you decide to apply your energy. You become more open and receptive despite having to deal with a very controlling partner or close associate. If you are single, you might attract people who are insecure and/or needy. Do you really want a relationship with this type of person? Choose carefully. If you are attached, the two of you have the same issues but very different ways of handling them. Learn from each other. A Virgo in your life could be very fussy. The stars show the kind of day you’ll have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult

ARIES (March 21-April 19) You bounce out of bed ready to go. Your high energy could dissolve as early as the afternoon. Use the morning well, and prioritize accordingly. A compliment from a family member will please you.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Your imagination triggers others’ caring. Anger might seem to stem from nothing, but know that there is a cause, even if you can’t identify its source. You can gain a different perspective through detachment. Walk in someone else’s shoes.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Stay centred despite pressure from a friend to view a situation the same way he or she does. You might have difficulty if you decide to not placate this person.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) You might want to open up to a change and be more forthcoming. Be your own person, despite someone else’s demanding ways. Remain caring and open, yet refuse to get involved in a controlling situation.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Be aware of the costs of approaching a matter from a different perspective. Try not to push someone too hard; otherwise, you could be opening yourself up to a whole new set of problems. Maintain your integrity, and express your authenticity.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) A discussion becomes easier and more successful as time goes on. You could be dragged down by a personal issue. A playful friend or partner is likely to spark your creativity. This same ingenuity comes out in a project as well.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Assess your priorities, and come up with a plan that might work better for you. Before moving forward, understand that you are going through changes that are about to be reflected. You might be testing the validity of certain approaches.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Remain in touch with your goals and preferences. Friends surround you and support you in maintaining the pace you feel is necessary to achieve your goals. Detach if you feel overly emotional. You might need to postpone a decision for several days.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Excitement surrounds you, no matter what you do. Perhaps you have been feeling a bit off as of late. Nevertheless, you attract people who are vibrant, exciting and willing to take a risk. You have taken risks before — why not try it again now?

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Reach out to someone at a distance. This person might be fussy and critical, yet he or she will give you valid feedback. You could be more controlling than you have been in a while. A partner or loved one is likely to be a bit of a handful.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) One-on-one relating could be rather significant. You have a lot of energy to complete a project. What you are thinking probably has nothing to do with what is occurring. Do a better job of listening and being present. Laughter surrounds you.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Defer to others who seem to have a need to control what is happening. A boss or older relative has strong feelings that he or she might be choosing not to share. This closedoff attitude will make this person seem quite distant. Opt to be a better listener.
