HOROSCOPE

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

You add snap, crackle and pop to others’ days. Conversations flow with most people, except a loved one who seems to have withdrawn from you. You might want to stay levelheaded when dealing with this person.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

Do some shopping and errands that can’t be put off any longer. You’ll see a situation differently when a confidant shares his or her viewpoint. You might feel sad or want to help; however, you have difficulty sharing those feelings.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

Do not overthink your plans; just be spontaneous. The more adventurous you are, the better your day will be. A friend surprises you with news that seems to come from out of left field. At first, you’ll have a strong reaction, but it won’t last long.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

If you don’t want to be part of what is happening, just make a call and let others know you will not be showing up. You might need some downtime, which you do not get enough of. Make it a high priority to free up some more time for yourself.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

Take your time making a decision, as it could have long-term implications. News from a distance will encourage you to detach a bit from a difficult friendship. You probably are hurt by the other party’s recent attitude; this too shall pass.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Emphasis is on what you want from a parent or boss. Handle your responsibilities early on in the day. As a result, you will feel better and have some time to yourself later. Know that you might have to deal with someone who is withholding his or her feelings.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

If you’re feeling uncomfortable during a conversation with a certain friend or relative, detach. Go through the process of taking a step back and getting an overview. Afterward, you will feel much better.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Deal directly with a close friend or loved one. This person enjoys his or her time with you. You both often surprise each other with your attitude. A financial matter needs discussing, no matter which way you look at it.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

If you decide that a situation is going to be difficult, you can count on it being problematic. You see life very differently from how many other people do. What bothers you might not even be a consideration to someone else.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Clear out what you must as soon as you can. A loved one has plans for you. At first, you might have a negative reaction, but once you process your feelings, you are likely to discover that what you are projecting has nothing to do with the situation.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Immerse yourself in the daylight hours, when you can let out your inner child. Be aware that a friend might feel disappointed and cop an attitude. You might have no other choice than to respond to this person. Stay as sensitive as you can.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

A respected relative might tell you that what you want is close to impossible. This person could be very demanding, and you will want to stand up for yourself. Just complete your plans as quickly as possible. Once you free yourself up, the fun begins.
