Invite a couple of friends over for a late brunch or a barbecue. Unless you want to make your plans complicated, opt for something simple. Tonight: Respond to a request.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Make calls and plans off the cuff. If you have already made plans, do not be surprised if you want to update them. A friend or loved one who is very controlling could switch gears. Tonight: Share exciting news!

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Be aware of the costs of continuing as you have. You like quality, whether it’s an object you are buying or a meal out. Often, you overspend. Tonight: Know that the good times don’t need to be expensive.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Use the input of others to rethink a decision. You understand that the more suggestions and opinions you receive, the broader your options will be. Tonight: Do not overspend.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

If you want to spend time reading the Sunday paper or catching up on a favorite TV series, do just that. Others will notice that you are not around, and you will become even more desirable. Tonight: Consider making dinner for two.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

If you zero in on your priorities, you are likely to manifest them. Friends support you as you try to make a goal or dream happen. Tonight: Make it an early night before you create too much trouble.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Note what is going on behind the scenes, and understand why it is happening. If this situation affects you, seize the opportunity to head in a new direction. Tonight: Try some exotic cuisine, and take it from there.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Allowing a loved one or dear friend to make plans for today is likely to give you a better idea of what this person wants and expects from a situation. Lighten up. Tonight: Be a duo.
