HOROSCOPE

- By Jacqueline Bigar

HAPPY BIRTHDAY: This year you let go of rigid thinking patterns and learn to understand where others are coming from. Your sense of humor and ability to identify a problem quickly add to your popularity. Neverthele­ss, you frequently wonder whether to do what you feel or what you think. See what works best for you. If you are single, developing a steady, normal relationsh­ip might be close to impossible in this volatile and changeable period. Avoid making a commitment until you stabilize. If you are attached, the two of you enter a period where you seem to be on opposite sides of a seesaw. Express your compassion. Pisces often grounds you. The stars show the kind of day you’ll have: 5-dynamic; 4-positive; 3-average; 2-so-so; 1-difficult.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) ★★ You might feel a little under the weather, having pushed so hard as of late. Take a nap, and you will feel better. Take your time and devote the day to you. You can’t delay this process, as life could take an exciting yet possibly exhausting turn quite quickly. Tonight: Feeling renewed.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) ★★★★★ Your sense of direction combined with a friend’s ideas could create a spectacula­rly fun day. You learn a lot about the people around you as events and laughter unfold. Take a close friend or loved one seriously, for your own sake. Tonight: Spontaneit­y rules — at least for now.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

★★★ Your ability to move into uncharted territory marks your actions. You know what it’s reasonable to expect from an older relative. You know what this person is capable of, yet you also know what he or she wants to accomplish. Pitch in. Tonight: Time for fun and games! CANCER (June 21-July 22) ★★★★★ You have the unique ability to turn situations inside out. Communicat­ion remains vital, yet you seem to be unable to decide whether to move in a new direction. Understand the innate liability of giving or receiving too much informatio­n! Tonight: Discuss an idea with a loved one.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

★★★★★ Understand the purpose of a long-overdue conversati­on. If nothing else, you and the other party might feel more in sync with each other afterward. Relating will become easier. Always remember that you are different people with different needs. Tonight: Out with friends.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

★★★★★ You will express a lot of caring to a close friend, sibling or associate, as well as nearly everyone you come into contact with today. You know and understand the power of positive thinking. A child or loved one might change his or her tune once more. Tonight: Full of fun.

Before you know it, you’ll be off on an adventure with friends. Tonight: Understand that you could be more tired than you realize. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ★★★★★ You suddenly might decide to create a vibrant, dynamic change. How you visualize a particular event could be considerab­ly different from reality. Your instincts are likely to kick in, and you know to follow them. Tonight: You might not be ready to discuss what occurs. SAGITTARIU­S (Nov. 22Dec. 21) ★★★★★ Go out of your way to clear up a problem, but first process what is happening.

Tonight: Get some extra Randr.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) ★★★★ You will be able to visualize what someone else is discussing. You might not see eye to eye with this person, but you accept that you are different. Open up more, judge less and try to put yourself in his or her shoes. Tonight: You don’t need to go far to have a great time. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ★★★★ You see a liability for what it is. You cannot keep reopening a wound without it getting worse. Your words incite a loved one into action or into making a premature decision. You know what ultimately works well. Don’t give in to a whim. Tonight: Try out a fabulous new restaurant.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) ★★★★ Your feelings might be extraordin­arily intense. What you believe you want and what works for you could be out of sync, causing a sense of dissatisfa­ction. Do not fight the inevitable. Tonight: Discuss a get-together with someone at a distance.
