If you are attached, you and your partner might use some unexpected developmen­ts to empower your bond. Life together proves exciting. Pisces encourages you to take a second look at situations.

Capricorn -

(Dec 22 - Jan 19)

**** Remain aware of your finances and spending. As the day ages, money matters tend to become less important. Understand what is motivating another person. You have the capability of saying “no,” but why not try to be open to this person’s energy? Tonight: Hang out late.

Aquarius -

(Jan 20 - Feb 18)

**** You love being the big personalit­y of your social group. However, you discover that the role is less appealing as the day progresses. Fatigue allows you to be more realistic about your capabiliti­es. A family member shakes up the status quo. Tonight: Let someone else take the lead.

Pisces -

(Feb 19 - Mar 20)

*** You might feel off. However, once you relax, your energy restores itself. Others sense a difference in you and seek you out. Your smile goes a long way. Be open to inquiries and/or suggestion­s. Not all of your plans need to reflect the same old patterns. Tonight: Do not be alone.

Aries -

(Mar 21 - Apr 19)

Taurus -

(Apr 20 - May 20)

Gemini -

(May 21 - June 20)

Libra -

(Sept 23 - Oct 22)

Scorpio -

(Oct 23 - Nov 21)

**** Use someone else’s unpredicta­bility to your advantage. You could be very tired and withdrawn. How you see what goes on down the path has a lot to do with the present moment. If you don’t like what you’re seeing, take nap and then look at it again. Tonight: Love blossoms.

Sagittariu­s -

(Nov 22 - Dec 21)

**** Make an important call in the morning, when the other party will be more receptive. Even if you receive a vague answer at first, allow this person to change his or her mind. Make relaxing plans. The closer you are to home, the happier you will be. Tonight: The spotlight is on you.
