HOROSCOPES
LOS ANGELES TIMES CROSSWORD
Aries (March 21-April 19):
You may need to be careful to avoid passive aggression when you talk today. If you have an unresolved issue concerning money, you’d be better off dealing with it honestly. Take up your frustrations with someone who can do something about them.
Taurus (April 20-May 20):
Peer pressure could leave you feeling inadequate in terms of your financial status at the moment. However, the real problem might be based in your own insecurities. Use this opportunity to make sure that your expectations are realistic according to current standards.
Gemini (May 21-June 20):
You may feel like a respected authority figure is out to get you today. However, your own frustrations could be playing a part. A negative attitude can generate the hostile response you expect. Be conscious of any signals you’re putting out , even unintentionally.
Cancer (June 21-July 22):
A conflict between your beliefs and your experiences could be upsetting you right now. Discussing this with your friends might reveal that you’re not the only one dealing with this — and reducing your feelings of isolation may solve the hardest part of your problem.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22):
Keeping good boundaries with your friends could be hard for you now, as you might be tempted to overshare about something private. However, reflecting on your major life goals can lead to more lasting benefits. Staying focused on doing something productive should help you avoid trouble.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22):
Your goals might be your main focus today, but somebody could seem like they’re holding you back. While it’s necessary for your significant relationships to be among your top priorities, you should also make room for yourself on your list. Your needs might be what you’re missing.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22):
Your workload could feel like a block between you and fun. Though you might enjoy the feelings of accomplishment as you power through a huge to-do list, other people may be willing to pitch in. Balance the ego gains from being needed against the adventures you can pursue.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21):
An entanglement you have with somebody could weigh on you today. You might want to go off and do your own thing. Taking the opportunity to have an important conversation may help you create a balance between your own needs and your obligations to others.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21):
Connecting with others could be overwhelming for you now. Someone may be demanding that you do what they want. A thoughtful look at your resources can help you make an informed decision. Don’t let anyone else boss you around, but don’t defer to unwarranted anxiety either.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19):
Focusing on your responsibilities could seem important now, but opportunities to chat will be hard to resist. You set your own priorities, so don’t blame anyone else for holding your nose to the grindstone. If having a good time is on your agenda, just embrace it without guilt.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18):
Enjoying yourself seems like a priority, but you might get hung up on how much it costs. While your sense of security is important, make sure that your worries are grounded in reality. This is an opportunity to sort out the difference between legitimate concerns and inhibitions.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20):
Some part of your upbringing might be holding you back at this time. Talking to your friends could help you find the most comfortable way to break free. When you feel validated, you should be able to gain a sense of which changes are immediately necessary versus which can wait.
