YOUR STARS

(WEDNESDAY, 18 OCTOBER 2017)

ARIES (March 21-April 20) – Do not hesitate to give credit where it is due, or take credit for you own achievements. You will receive advice that is better than it seems at first; consider it very carefully. If you show more goodwill and are ready to make some concessions you will also find it easier to live with yourself. TAURUS (April 21-May 20) – There is no harm in a few daydreams but do keep your feet firmly on the ground. The general situation is not as clear as you would like it to be and you should be on your guard. Do your best to refrain from vindictiveness particularly where a member of your family is concerned. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – This is not better time to be reckless in money maters than any other. Avoid being curious to the extent where you become a busybody and pry into what is no concern of yours. You will want to do a lot of things and should not waste time on unnecessary elaboration. CANCER (June 21-July 20) – Do not allow yourself to be blinded with facts and figures. You will have a better idea of what has to be done and how to do it. However, you should not spend more time talking about doing than doing it. Trust to your judgment and act on it with confidence. Be more practical. LEO (July 21-Aug. 20) – A matter involving work should not be dwelt upon today. You will be able to show others the way but you should let them offer their point of view too. Do not expect others to do things for you, though they may well do so. Avoid doing anything you have reason to believe would be on your conscience. VIRGO (Aug 21-Sept. 22) – You will be more persuasive but you still should not expect to get your way in all things. Your intuition will be heightened but that does not mean it will always show you the right way. Avoid trying to demonstrate what a good fellow you are; if you are it will show anyway. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) – Avoid taking too much for granted and this includes favors. Do not have your head too high in the clods, but nor be too condescending. Concentrate on the essentials but without neglecting details. Do not get behind with payment nor should you allow those who owe you to do so. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 22) – Do your best, but do not attempt what is obviously quite beyond your reach. Do not however, give up too easily, make your best effort. Not everything can be done straight away, but the less you leave for later, the better. The more modest your requirements are the more likely are they to be met. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 20) – Avoid blaming others for what I even if only partially your own fault. Rather than basing your advice on guesswork, say so if you do not know enough about the subject in question. You will have greater freedom of action and more than enough energy to accomplish a lot today. CAPRICORN (Dec. 21-Jan. 19) – Pay attention to a small detail that could be overlooked. Make up your mind but seek to keep your options open too. The prospects are good, but you have to play your part; no sitting back and waiting for good things to happen to you. It will be a tiring day but restrain yourself instead of being impatient. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – If investing, do not look for a quick profit. Try to look again at a decision you made earlier; is it still right or does it need some adjustments. Leave yourself with an option in case it does. Do not be so keen to blame others for something deleterious and try to take measures to prevent a recurrence. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – An offer or proposal should be reexamined; it is not all it seemed to be. It is important to make a few concessions if you want to stay on good terms with your partner. Remember that there is no chance of your having your own way in all things. Do not allow your work to intrude upon your leisure hours.
