HOROSCOPE

Aries (March 21-April 19): You’ll be an invaluable asset to a busy person today.

Taurus (April 20-May 20): The first rule is to love yourself. You’ll be able to do more for others when you follow that rule.

Gemini (May 21-June 21): One version of mistaken identity is when you mentally imbue others with powers they do not possess.

Cancer (June 22-July 22): You created a place for yourself, and you could do the same in any number of places should you choose to make a move.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): While others complain about what’s wrong, you home in on the problem, and fix it in a way that satisfies both the small and the big picture. Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Much depends on where the information is coming from. But just because a source is familiar doesn’t mean you should disregard it.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Shape interactions with an eye toward the abilities and needs of those around you. Avoid being manipulated.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): If even a small part of the fence is down, that’s where intruders will enter. Make sure that your boundaries are fully in place. Sagittarius (Nov. 22Dec. 21): Solitude will nurture and restore you. Those who “get” you know when to leave you alone. The others will need a hint. Where gentle reminders fail, be assertive. Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): It can be disappointing to learn just how self-centered people can really be, but acknowledging the reality is important.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Luck will play a role, but it’s not the part you expect. It’s still important to set up your plan and follow up with your contingency plan.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Ironically, the foresight it takes to avoid a bad situation often comes in hindsight. That is, people who’ve already had the experience of being in a bad situation are the best at avoiding getting stuck in the future.

Today’s birthday (Nov. 26): Your soul feels like dancing, and the rhythm of life picks up the beat. New faces come in and out of your projects, invigorating the scene with exciting energy. But when you want a commitment from someone, all you have to do is ask. Your attention to being healthy and fit will have far-reaching benefits. Virgo and Libra adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 5, 23, 11, 19 and 2.
