Horoscopes

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Friday, July 28: This year you are willing to express yourself authentically. You also find that Lady Luck is riding on your shoulder. You have a gift for words, and you can be very diplomatic. If you are single, your status could change at any moment. You have many choices of whom to date. If you are attached, you and your sweetie seem to be more connected than in the past. Make sure to schedule plenty of dates for just the two of you. Libra is as diplomatic as you are, but is perhaps even more charming.

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 are eyeing the weekend. You respond in a cheerful, positive way to others. Plans could change, as there could be a last-minute problem at work. You might not be thrilled by what happens.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You might want to handle certain routine matters at the moment. Take the time to schedule an important appointment. Sometimes you don’t take enough time for yourself. Change that tendency.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Your creativity and humour often make you seem like a lightweight in life, but in reality you are more like a cloaked heavyweight. Don’t hesitate to let an associate know when you have had enough. Honour your needs, yet listen to what is being shared.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) Honour a fast change of pace. You might wonder what to do and how to handle a domestic matter involving property. Know that the situation could transform radically. Hold off on making a decision for now.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Speak your mind, but remain open to suggestions and perspectives. The more positive you are, the better your message will be received. The pace might become so hectic that you will need to screen your calls.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Remain steadfast. Your strength and optimism make a difference. Do not let someone undermine your decision. Know what you want and how you feel. Change might be inevitable, but it does not need to be dominant. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) People often do not understand why they are so drawn to you, but they are. Still, you might need to give more definition to your various relationships. Many possibilities surround you at the moment. You connect to others with the caring you desire.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You could be in a situation where you can’t quite come to terms with what is going on around you. In a sense, you’ll feel as if you are in the middle of a power play that you cannot win. Being somewhat unavailable could help you get your point across.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Meetings, get-togethers and your focus on a long-term goal all play a strong role in your day. So many people seek you out that you might feel overwhelmed. Understand your limits, but also test them to see if they are valid. Avoid tension at all costs.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You could be out of sync with what a boss wants as well as what a loved one wants. You also might not be in the mood to make any adjustments. Recognize the limits that you are creating. Perhaps they are OK for a little while, but not for the long run.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Reach out for more information, seek out experts, and/or brainstorm with someone close to you. You have many choices, some of which you might not recognize just yet. You will get past an obstacle once you can see the big picture.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Others tend to be responsive to your questions, although a boss, higher-up or parent could become very manipulative or controlling. Do not give in to this person’s demands.
