HOROSCOPE

Wednesday, Jan. 15, 2014 Aries (March 21-April 19)

Tonight: Play it easy.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

HH break out. Someone might misread your attitude. Make a point to clarify your thoughts. A serious but important conversation will stabilize the situation. Note how this person gets when he or she is upset.

Tonight: Get some extra R and R.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Tonight: Go with the flow.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Tonight: Head home, and squeeze in some exercise.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

HHH You might feel pulled in two different directions. Your friends really enjoy having you around, yet a child or loved one could express some neediness. You likely will try to juggle all of these concerns. As a result, a partner could become impatient.

Tonight: Take a midweek break.
