Horoscopes

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Wednesday, Sept. 12, 2018:

This year you grow in new ways. You could be dealing with an overload of energy or even frustration. If you see a crazy situation evolve or are about to blow your fuse for no reason, then slow down and look within yourself. If you are single, interacting successfully with a new friend will take talent because of so much energy and emotion involved. By summer 2019, you will find that relating is a lot easier. If you are attached, you and your partner need to calmly work through some of your issues; doing so will bond you together. You will gain understanding and ease. Scorpio makes a great friend.

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 might be in touch with someone whom you find to be somewhat aggravating. How you approach this situation could vary from one individual to the next. Get in touch with your anger and frustration, or you could become explosive.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

★★★★★ Defer to others, and let them reveal their intentions — although you might be shocked by an associate’s aggravation. Unfortunately, even if you don’t deserve it, this person’s anger could be directed at you. Stay cool and calm; everything will work out.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

★★★ Pace yourself; you have a lot of ground to cover. Don’t forget to schedule an appointment with a doctor for a checkup. One-on-one interactions feel rewarding and point you down a more positive path. You could be unusually tired.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

★★★★★ From moment to moment, your emotions could skyrocket or plunge. The good news is that you know when your mood is likely to change quickly. Understand what is happening with a child or loved one. If you are single, Cupid could be just around the corner.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

★★★★ Your feelings touch another person deeply. You connect with this person as though you have known each other forever. If you can get past a misunderstanding, you will find today to be particularly rewarding.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

★★★★ Return calls early. A conversation that you have today might need to be repeated in a few days. If the other party spaces out on you, don’t get uptight. This person might be processing a lot. Use your high energy well.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

★★★★ Be aware that each action has a reaction. When you decide to join friends, observe the cost. You might have been less than diligent in dealing with your finances. Stay on top of your spending. Otherwise, money might be an issue for you.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

★★★★★ You’ll get past an obstacle that drops on you via someone else. You could be sullen and quiet, but you eventually will emerge smiling and ready to handle whatever comes down the path. Your habit of keeping a lot to yourself works well for you.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

★★★ At the moment, you might want to avoid interacting with others. Your mood might be quieter than usual, and you also might not like the feedback you get from several friends. Do your thing, but keep it low-key.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

★★★ You could be overly serious and determined. People who are too playful might irritate you. A friend you cannot contain shares some special news. A child or new friend causes his or her share of uproar. Maintain a sense of humour, and everything will be OK.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

★★★★ Understand how far you can push in order to have things go your way. A boss seems to be hanging on to your words. Understand the possibilities surrounding a situation. Make a point of being a bit more abstract today. Be willing to stand up for yourself.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

★★★★★ When a situation becomes too hazy, make a point to detach and look at the issue from a different point of view. You immediately will understand what you need to do. Surprises head your way.
