HOROSCOPES

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22): Emotions will be difficult to control. Avoid a trap set by one of your peers. If you want to get things done, work alone. Don't venture too far from home.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21): Financial concerns will add to your stress and could affect your health if you aren't careful when handling settlements, investments or joint funds. Honesty will be a step in the right direction.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): A problem will crop up if you let a sensitive issue metastasize. Do your best to contain your emotions and deal with matters professionally and without hesitation.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19): Emotional spending, overreacting and getting involved in indulgent behavior won't resolve matters. Do what needs to be done and move on.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20): Plan a day trip or get out and shop for someone you love. You'll find out something about someone close to you if you have lunch with an old friend.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): You need a break. Whether you take a staycation or sign up for a class that will help ease stress, it will encourage you to relax and let life unfold naturally.
