Horoscopes
Tuesday, Feb. 7, 2017
ARIES (March 21April 19). Work under pressure, handle crises, impress your peers, be independent, stand out in a crowd — yes, that’s one way to go. Or you can chill until you’re quiet enough on the inside to see what needs to be done and why.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You own a lot of items. Something about that will be today’s main problem. You may find yourself in elimination mode. Instead of asking, “Will I use this someday?” ask, “Do I use it now? Does it work well? Do I love it?”
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You’re not entirely comfortable making people work for your respect and attention, but it happens that way sometimes. Though you’re too compassionate to make them work hard, some amount of effort is good for all.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). You may hear the words of contrition you have been waiting for, but how valuable

is an apology really? Ultimately it will be deeds, not words, that bring a situation back into balance.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). The cat doesn’t agonize about when, where and how to catch the mouse. It watches, alert, and when it feels an advantage it pounces. You benefit from going deeper into the feline nature of your sun-sign symbol. Be the cat.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). When you take a moment to watch the grace of a bird, the elegant pattern of leaves or the peaceful way the grass recognizes the wind, you are letting the nature spirits energize you.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Resist the temptation to get involved in the struggle. You may want to make things right, but this is not your battle. The combatant’s interests are not your interests. You grow stronger with every conflict you avoid.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). The greatest asset you have for making a contribution to the world is yourself.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22Dec. 21). Conversations get increasingly interesting — not because of what is said, but because of what’s in the pause. Silence will be the connective essence of words.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22Jan. 19). Maybe not today, but someday you’ll regret settling for a poor quality of attention from the people around you. Stand up for yourself. If they don’t show signs of respect, go where your input will be better appreciated.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). The day features a rather intricate game. You’ve a talent for strategy today. Plan several moves in advance. A temporary move backward will lead to a giant move forward.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You’ll have success when you employ your instinct about what other people like. You’re so adept at placing yourself in the hypothetical, seeing things how others might, empathizing— perhaps because you find the exercise enjoyable.
