Happy birthday for Sunday, Feb 16, 2020: This year, you might struggle with some confusion, especially surrounding your finances. You will learn to create a tighter base with money. You have an unusual number of friends who help point you in the correct direction, but their opinions will vary. If single, you break a pattern and date different types of people. A budding bond will experience many ups and downs. If attached, the two of you work together to manifest a long-term desire. You will have reason to celebrate. Sagittarius always has a new idea. It is up to you to determine whether it is a good one.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult.

Capricorn -

(Dec 22 - Jan 19)

***** Speak your mind and follow through on what you deem significant. Your fatigue at recent events, bits of information and general hearsay becomes evident. Do not participate in what is happening. Tonight: Meet up with friends at a favorite spot.

This Week: Reach out for a loved one at a distance.

Aquarius -

(Jan 20 - Feb 18)

**** Zero in on your priorities, and do not allow finances to stop you in your tracks. Your ability to resolve a problem goes past the mundane and involves a general perspective of different facets of the issue. Tonight: Hook up with friends.

This Week: Toward Thursday, you will feel good about what you have accomplished. Know that you remain on shaky ground.

Pisces -

(Feb 19 - Mar 20)

**** You might not mean to add to the present level of confusion, but you do. Loosen up and share your feelings, knowing that they could change. Be willing to take charge of a project. Bring family and friends together. Tonight: In the limelight.

This Week: You might not feel grounded or sure of yourself. Do not worry. You will get there.

Aries -

(Mar 21 - Apr 19)

**** Feelings might be more intense than you realize. You think in terms of change or creating more stability than you’ve had in the recent past. You have ideas, but events in the next few weeks could define areas that need attention. Tonight: Say little and observe a lot.

This Week: You might not immediately see the results of hard work.

Taurus -

(Apr 20 - May 20)

***** What you had written off as a no-go easily could become a possibility once more if given patience and time. A friend might reveal some significant information that needs to be reviewed. Tonight: Avoid impulsive behavior.

This Week: Do not lose sight of priorities.

Gemini -

(May 21 - June 20)

***** You cannot handle any matter quickly at present. You need to verify you have all your “I’s” dotted and “T’s” crossed. Somehow you might notice a matter that needs completion. Do not push an authority figure too hard at the moment.

This Week: Others push and shove to have their way. Let them.

Cancer -

(June 21 - July 22)

**** You have a style that often takes others by surprise. Your ability to cast doubt on what might be a firm agreement proves significant. You might need to discuss the different factors with those involved. Tonight: Note how opinions change quickly.

This Week: Others explore ideas with you, but ultimately you might have little say in the outcome.

Leo -

(July 23 - Aug 22)

**** Your creativity is ignited when you see an issue emerge. Use care as to how quickly you patch it up. You want the matter resolved, but in order to succeed, you need to slow down and work with each possibility. Tonight: Get together with a fun person.

This Week: Defer to others, knowing when you need to add a more practical comment.

Virgo -

(Aug 23 - Sept 22)

**** Defer to others, but know that getting an agreement might be close to impossible. Given time and thought, priorities will change. Do not act on the need to pressure anyone or say anything. Tonight: Go along with another person’s plans.

This Week: The only answer is yes, but recognize how much you will need to let go.

Libra -

(Sept 23 - Oct 22)

*** You have so much to do that you might feel as if you cannot accomplish what you need to. Slow down. Remember, a job well-done is more important than a sloppy one. Take a long walk or join a friend. Tonight: Refuse to intensely focus on any one matter at present.

This Week: Others seek greater say and influence. You will react with strong feelings.

Scorpio -

(Oct 23 - Nov 21)

**** You have the imagination, intellect and will to harness an idea and see if it serves your purpose. In several weeks, your opinions could radically change. A child or new friend might reveal an important piece of information. Tonight: Paint the town red.

This Week: Honor a fast change of perspective.

Sagittarius -

(Nov 22 - Dec 21)

**** You could feel ill at ease with some information you hear. You might try out what you heard on the same person who delivered the news. His or her reaction will determine if you need to make a correction. Tonight: Make your home your castle right now.

This Week: Eye the financial consequences of a decision before giving the go-ahead.
