YOUR horoscope
HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Monday, Nov. 12, 2018:
This year you will want to respond to the distant voice that often encourages you to head down an offbeat or unusual path. You might want a dear friend to test out your ideas more often. A creative venture marks your year. If you are single, you can be distant and remote, causing tension in any relationship -- especially a new one. Try to soften your defensiveness. If you are attached, you and your partner often spin wild plots and act them out. The two of you will want to plan a long-desired trip together. CAPRICORN’S conservative ways could get the best of you. 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)

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
★★★★ You are well-grounded and have the ability to see past the obvious. Your vision for a relationship in your life might need some modifications, which becomes apparent today or in the near future. Listen well, as a friend gives you powerful feedback. Tonight: Do some evaluating.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

other hand, this information could help guide you toward a more successful path. Tonight: Dinner and a chat with friends.
CANCER (June 21-July 22)

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)
★★★ When you enter a room, everyone is aware of your presence. You’ve learned how to handle people’s various requests and needs with ease. You might need to practice keeping a low profile, because you need to cover a lot of ground today. Tonight: Squeeze in some exercise.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
★★★★★ You are unusually gifted with creativity and resourcefulness. This ability to tap into your imagination might cause you to be less practical than usual. Share this feeling with a trusted friend or loved one, and ask for feedback. Tonight: Choose a favorite stressbuster.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
★★★ You are grounded right now; however, to you, it might feel more like you are stuck. In order to move on from this point, walk away from your traditional anchors for a few hours or a day. You might need to seek out an expert for some advice. Tonight: Tap into your inner child.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
★★★★ You tend to be your own worst enemy. You also have been known to develop a very controlling attitude. Recognize that although this behavior might suit you at times, it doesn’t serve you well right now. Try to be more upbeat in general. Tonight: Sort through invitations.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
★★★ Take your time making a decision. You might not feel comfortable with what you are seeing. Believe that there is no such word as “impossible.” You know that you need to seek out more information in order to make a more positive choice. Tonight: Do some daydreaming.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)
★★★★★ You add mystery to any gathering, even a business get-together. You often hold back because of others’ judgments. Perhaps choosing different, softer words could help reel in dissenters. A meeting proves to be significant. Tonight: Try heading down an unknown path.
