Monday, Jan. 22, 2018 Aries (March 21-April 19)

You have pushed hard to have more control than you have in the past. A situation involving your community might be tiring in some way. Tonight: Accept an offer.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Don’t allow news from a distance to get the best of you. What you are hearing is hearsay and not necessarily true; let it go until you have all the facts. Tonight: Allow yourself to be entertained.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Zero in on what is a high priority for you. Do not allow your friends to distract you or change your mind. Express your concern for a loved one. Tonight: Go where crowds can be found.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Others seem to be unusually touchy and perhaps even difficult. Relax, and know that this negativity will transform fast enough. Listen to a loved one’s feedback. Tonight: Keep it exciting and upbeat.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

You easily could feel a bit off-kilter. Try to walk in someone else’s shoes, and you are likely to come to an understanding. Tonight: Don’t hesitate to test out a new idea.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

You will want to defer to an associate or partner about a financial matter. This person seems to have a broader vision of what is possible. Tonight: Roll with the punches.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

If an associate wants to dominate, let him or her; otherwise, you could find yourself in an ugly situation. Understand your limits, but also pay attention to this person’s agenda. Tonight: Sort through possibilities.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

You might have had a difficult time dealing with an important matter as of late. Let go of the recent past, and start looking at the issue differently. You might not have all the answers yet. Tonight: Just be yourself.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Your creativity might be called upon by others, but first you need to handle a personal matter. Brainstorm with someone who always seems to come up with good solutions. Tonight: Express how you feel about an issue.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

You seem to be more serious than you have been in quite a while. Know that you cannot keep pushing as hard as you have been. Tonight: Buy a gift for a friend on the way home.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Your softer nature speaks for itself. You could find that you keep returning to the same thoughts. Perhaps you need to act on your feelings in order to clear out these redundant inner conversations. Tonight: At a favorite haunt.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

You might be more possessive than you realize. As a result, you are likely to push a loved one away. Try to loosen up and not be so concerned. You could be going through a period of feeling undesirable. Tonight: Call it early.
