Your Horoscope for Monday, October 16

- JACQUELINE BIGAR

ARIES (March 21-April 19) Confusion surrounds you. Sorting fact from fiction might be somewhat stressful but necessary. These efforts seem timeconsum­ing. You will be relieved once you see the end results. TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

Your ingenuity bypasses a fantasy. Keep your eye on your long-term desires, though you could be tired of interferen­ce from a demanding person in your life.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You cannot avoid tension on the home front. But you can choose not to think about it when you are not around it. If you are feeling fussy, opt for a quiet moment to soothe your nerves and remain centered.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) If you are contradict­ed, you could get quite angry. Take this opportunit­y to have a discussion rather than a flaming exchange. With this approach you probably will build greater success in the long run.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Use care with your finances. You easily could make an error. You don’t need to act suspicious of any financial propositio­ns that could come forward in the next few days. Neverthele­ss, there could be a problem or an inadverten­tly undisclose­d detail.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You might need to redefine a relationsh­ip. You note that the other party might not be reflecting the type of bond you thought you had with him or her. An off mood might cause you some cynicism. Give this person some time before beginning a talk.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Know when to back off. You are not being a hypocrite; you are giving others space. At the same time, you are creating the opportunit­y for you to be a good listener. A loved one might be upset at your silence.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) A meeting stars in your day. You might not understand where an admirer or loved one is coming from. You witness the power of communicat­ion drawing together different opinions and feelings. SAGITTARIU­S (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Keep reaching out for a boss. You will get a response, mainly because of your consistenc­y and ability to sense this person’s mood. Take a hard look at your finances.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Your vision of what is possible could be transformi­ng. Credit your willingnes­s to be open. If an important decision needs to be made in the next few months, do it before mid-December.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You can and often do become uncomforta­ble in an intense one-on-one conversati­on. Remain cautious when dealing with a demanding associate. You often feel as if this person gets his or her way with you.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Others often are confused by you, even when you try to be as clear as possible. Touch base with a friend. This person once more demands this or that. Know that you need to follow through.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY (Oct. 16) This year you advance a long-term dream. You will experience greater fluidity financiall­y, enabling you to instigate a heartfelt desire.
