AQUARIUS

Jan 20-Feb 18 Work hard to make your family happy and secure. Your idealistic nature may extend to wanting your possessions to reflect your values. Spend your hard-earned dollars on things that will withstand the test of time.

PISCES

Feb 19-Mar 20 Do what you want to do, but remain reasonable and think through consequences. You have control of your own destiny and can spend your precious earnings any way you wish, but you might be more reckless and impulsive than usual.

ARIES

Mar 21-Apr 19 A list of pros and cons can help you clarify the wisest choice. Giving in to an urge to stir up excitement might have unexpected results. Don’t make irrevocable decisions that could result in awkward moments.

TAURUS

Apr 20-May 20 It’s easier to think about ways to use your money than to go out and spend it. A potential romantic relationship might not get off the ground because the other person may think of you only in the friend zone.

GEMINI

May 21-June 20 There could be a fly in the ointment. Small problems can be annoying and mildly disruptive, but you can take them in stride. Things are seldom perfect, but this doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy life or still attain your goals.

CANCER

June 21-July 22 Understand the facts. Your love life could be troubled if you hold on to unrealistic expectations. Just because a romantic partner seems somewhat distant or preoccupied doesn’t mean aren’t truly loved and appreciated.

LEO

July 23-Aug 22 Get on with it. You may be daunted and bored by routine tasks and think it’s time to make a change. There is no reason to abandon a project to begin a new one unless you’re positive there is no other choice.

VIRGO

Aug 23-Sept 22 Happiness can’t be bought with a credit card, so don’t let wishful thinking influence your spending habits. Hold off on making major expenditures since you might regret it if you spend more than you should.

LIBRA

Sept 23-Oct 22 There is no reason to set off firecrackers to get attention. Someone might not really get your wildest fantasies or whimsical ideas, so it might be best to maintain a low profile and put a damper on wishful thinking.

SCORPIO

Oct 23-Nov 21 Apply yourself to the business at hand. You might be more at ease in group meetings than one-on-one. Avoid getting sidetracked by dreams of grandeur or worrying that your partner is unfeeling about your needs.

SAGITTARIUS

Nov 22-Dec 21 Your decisions are right on target, but it may be necessary to wait for the results you want. Even if progress isn’t apparent right now, you are still ultimately moving toward your goals.

If today is your birthday:

Your business sense is pitch perfect this week, but you could be overly competitive and forget some people skills. You might get your own way, but as the next three to four weeks pass by, you will frequently receive reminders that you must depend upon the goodwill of others to get ahead. April is a good time to reassess financial structures and to forge forward with anything that is important to your physical well-being. Begin an exercise plan or initiate a diet. Take on no new obligations voluntarily and be sure not to offend people in September, when your good luck could be at low tide. Your fortitude might be tested; extra responsibilities could entail overtime, or your free time could be stretched thin. An opportunity that will improve your life could appear in October, so keep eyes open for a new job, a promotion or a helpful adviser.
