ARIES (March 21-April 19): Follow the head, not the heart. Chance may provide that you must deal with an extremely attractive person today. Don’t put yourself at a disadvantage by gawking in awe. Be professional.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Don’t change horses in midstream. You’ve seen a project begin to blossom and it would be to your advantage to stick with it. Put minor problems in perspective; don’t give them more attention than they’re worth.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Someone may tend to color the truth or exaggerate to make an offer seem more appealing. Find out the real facts on your own before agreeing to anything.
CANCER (June 21-July 22): Take your winnings and walk away. You’ve been on a roll lately and though it may seem like it’s impossible to lose, you shouldn’t press your luck. Give a special someone some extra attention.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): It’s better to have a cup that’s half full than half empty. Even though both cups are theoretically the same, an optimistic outlook brings benefits. Follow your intuition if a decision absolutely has to be made.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): A mirage seems enticing until you start drinking sand. Though someone may have passed muster in early encounters, your latest romance may not measure up to close scrutiny. Don’t let spending get out of control.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Someone’s not being completely honest. You may have to dis- cern the 10 percent of truth in every lie you hear today. Your common sense should be enough to guide you down the right path.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Don’t be too bold when it comes to finances. Avoid taking risks when the overall outcome remains uncertain. Make a surefire investment by keeping your hard-earned cash right where it is.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Too much optimism may lead to a fall. Keeping things positive is always a plus but you must remain realistic if you are to achieve success. Heed the advice of trusted friends and colleagues.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Don’t hold your breath. Someone may just be telling you what you want to hear when they make you a promise. Don’t rely on anyone to come through for you unless he or she has a proven track record.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Read between the lines. Be careful to differentiate between a genuine sincere com- ment and someone trying to grease the wheels. Maintaining high standards will draw the notice of important eyes.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): It’s not what they tell you, but what they don’t tell you that is the key element to your question. Use your skills of deductive reasoning to determine the details that someone is omitting from a presentation.
IF FEBRUARY 22 IS YOUR BIRTHDAY: Get tuned into the cosmos and what is really important to you during the next several months. With Neptune in your sector of the zodiac, you may be attracted to a more spiritual side of life or develop sensitivity to others. This is a good time to make lasting improvements in your health by eating right and exercising. April is an excellent time for financial decisions and tackling business matters, but July is the very best time to make key changes. Any opportunities that occur in July are sure to bring lasting contentment.
