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 have a strong sense that something is not as it seems on the homefront. Know that you aren’t being overly sensitive. Trust your intuition. A loved one or dear friend will play a significant role in your plans. A party could develop out of nothing. Tonight: Hang in there.

This Week: Slow and steady wins the race.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You could be more possessive than you realize. An older person might try to let you know how jealous you have become. You might feel as if you can do whatever you want, but you can’t — not if you want a happy relationship. Be creative. Tonight: Treat a loved one to dinner.

This Week: Your fun personality comes out midweek.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Emphasize what is good around you as opposed to what isn’t. You will be reminded of the power of positive thinking once more. A partner or loved one seems very receptive to what you want. Enjoy being a receiver instead of the giver today. Tonight: Dinner with friends.

This Week: Go for what you want. By Tuesday, do some reflection.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Others are very aware of what you are doing. Those closest to you might question your choices more than they have in the recent past; perhaps they don’t quite understand your perspective. Be positive, and thank them for sharing. Tonight: Go off and do what you want.

This Week: Others look up to you.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You might want to reach out to someone you care a lot about. Your way of dealing with someone else could be more provocative than you realize. Use your imagination when in the company of a child or loved one. You will be pleased with the results. Tonight: Rent a movie.
