HOROSCOPE

CAPRICORN

Dec 22-Jan 19 Different doesn’t mean wrong. Someone’s methods may seem strange or foreign to you but you pay attention to what they’re doing, you could learn something. Be patient as a worthy goal requires planning and preparation.

AQUARIUS

Jan 20-Feb 18 A little bit of optimism can go a long way. Keep a positive attitude that things will turn out for the best and you’ll get a favourable outcome. A social gathering could yield a valuable new contact that can help make things happen.

PISCES

Feb 19-Mar 20 Don’t look a gift horse in the mouth. Swallow your pride if someone offers you help as you should be more than happy to receive it. Someone’s specific skill set could make them able to handle a situation much easier than you can.

ARIES

Mar 21-Apr 19 Show off your good taste. Make a great impression on someone by putting your appreciation of the finer things in life on display. You’ll be in your element when tackling problems that require sound logic or deductive reasoning.

TAURUS

Apr 20-May 20 Live it up a little. You know what they say about all work and no play so treat yourself to one of life’s guilty little pleasures with no regrets. You can count on a friend to come through for you with assistance or a favour.

GEMINI

May 21-June 20 Pull out all the stops. If you really want to get on someone’s good side, you’ll go the whole nine yards to make them feel like royalty. You may find that a homecooked meal made with love is worth a dozen trips to a fancy restaurant.

CANCER

June 21-July 22 Social butterflies spread their wings. You’ll be most comfortable when showing off your wit or sharing anecdotes among friends or co-workers. Sound advice from a mentor could provide the answer to a nagging problem.

LEO

July 23-Aug 22 Think two steps ahead. Problems and errors can easily be avoided if you use your intuition to anticipate the outcomes of certain events. Only take on the responsibility of a promise if you are both willing and able to follow through with it.

VIRGO

Aug 23-Sept 22 Dress to impress. If you look good and carry yourself with an air of confidence, those around you will be hanging on your every word. Today you will be able to use your will to have things go your way.

LIBRA

Sept 23-Oct 22 You get what you pay for. It may cost a bit more, but in the long run a higher quality item may be well worth the extra expense. Do some research and check out a few customer reviews before making your mind up on a purchase.

SCORPIO

Oct 23- Nov 21 Don’t worry too much about who is number one. Show those around you that you’re all on the same team by being fair and honest and you’ll gain respect and trust. Being helpful rather than critical could make someone’s day.

SAGITTARIUS

Nov 22-Dec 21 He who hesitates is lost. Take care not to rest on your laurels as extra work or responsibility may be suddenly thrust upon you. If negotiations or agreements “feel” right to you, it should be safe to proceed with them.

If today is your birthday:

The holidays may be brighter thanks to plenty of social outings. In the last half of January, you could be distracted by something that is probably too good to be true. Wait until February to make decisions or a commitment. April can be an even better time to make long range plans. Your business sense and street savvy is at a peak in July.
