HOROSCOPE

CAPRICORN Dec 22-Jan 19

Don’t take any unnecessary risks on this last day of the work week. Although an investment or purchase might seem to make sense, don’t make that commitment today.

AQUARIUS Jan 20-Feb 18

Stick to your plan. Giving in to impulses or making snap decisions about your home or career could create complications. Your business sense may be at a low point.

PISCES Feb 19-Mar 20

Take a rain check if you are invited to go out with friends. What seems glamorous on paper might prove disappointing. You will be better satisfied by enjoying domestic pleasures with loved ones.

ARIES Mar 21-Apr 19

You might hope to get lucky on this Friday the 13th. You could let your passions have the upper hand and could be misled if all you see is what you want. Don’t mistake friendliness for love.

TAURUS Apr 20-May 20

Being a good friend might mean taking on extra burdens. You may be asked to work more hours than you’d planned or spend your night doing meaningful work for a community event.

GEMINI May 21-June 20

Spend your Friday evening with a steadfast companion and stay close to home. Be aware of any personal limitations and be cautious when faced with decisions that could affect your home life.

CANCER June 21-July 22

Your social life might require a bit of patience. Serious subjects can cast a gloom over what should be a carefree time. Focus on taking care of necessities and requirements.

LEO July 23-Aug 22

You must fulfil your obligations in order to get a reward, but you may not be in the mood to perform some of your duties. Someone might need your assistance or distract you with their personal stories.

VIRGO Aug 23-Sept 22

You know how to successfully fulfil your responsibilities. Be proud that you are conscientious and dutiful. You are willing to go the extra mile to complete necessary tasks and meet deadlines.

LIBRA Sept 23-Oct 22

It isn’t a black cat that you should fear on this Friday the 13th but rather your own wishful thinking. You might imagine that you look better or worse than someone else. Be kind to yourself.

SCORPIO Oct 23-Nov 21

You may be challenged to prove what you say by committing, which could be costly if you exaggerate. If your partner hasn’t been very energetic, turn on a romantic movie to change the mood.

SAGITTARIUS Nov 22-Dec 21

It isn’t because you’re superstitious or that it’s Friday the 13th that makes it wise to hold off on major purchases and key financial decisions. Better choices will appear next week.

If today is your birthday:

Your romantic nature is powered up during the coming three to four weeks, so you might enjoy inspirational gatherings, a weekend getaway with a loved one or spending more time on creative activities. You should take notes when you have imaginative ideas, as these can be powerful ideas that spur you on to tackle ambitious projects. Throughout April you can be a success at whatever you begin because you are more determined and industrious than usual. Once you begin a project or begin developing an idea, you won’t rest until it’s completed to your satisfaction. This can be an especially auspicious time to launch a new business or financial plan. Work hard and your dreams will come true. Any offer or opportunity that arrives in July could be a good one. You will make wise decisions because your judgment is better than usual, and you can count on having support and guidance from the right people to help successfully launch your plans.
