LOVE AND THE STARS

- JACQUELINE BIGAR

Aries (March 21-April 19)

You will have a difficult time being subtle, but this kind of reticent behavior might be appropriat­e at the moment. You could have an important conversati­on about a potential trip with a friend. Listen carefully to what he or she wants to share. Tonight: Let off some steam.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Zero in on what you desire. Verbalizin­g what you want is far more important than you realize, especially as you are starting to deal with someone who tends to be less communicat­ive. A comment could force you back to the drawing board. Tonight: Don’t swallow your anger!

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Take charge if you want to have a project come out exactly as you would like. Run with the ball, yet still listen to others’ suggestion­s. Rather than saying “no,” keep their ideas in mind. You never know when one might work. Tonight: Work off some extra energy.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Keep reaching out to someone at a distance or to someone who seems to have a different view from you. A lack of energy will be a valid reason to hold off on making a decision. Be aware of the role that making a change has in energizing you. Tonight: A sudden burst of energy.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Fortunatel­y, you deal well with others; however, a spacey individual could stop you in your tracks. You might need to listen more closely to what this person is saying. Note what he or she doesn’t say, as that could have unusual significan­ce. Tonight: Try something different.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Others will seek you out, though you might not be up for a prolonged one-way conversati­on. You could try to add more fun to the exchanges. Ultimately, you will find that sharing your feelings is likely to add some fuel to your interactio­ns. Tonight: Stay centered.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Your focus will be on getting your work done. How you see a personal matter could change once you attempt to initiate a conversati­on. Clearly, the other party seems more vested in control than in expressing his or her feelings. Tonight: Back away from a volatile situation.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Your creativity and curiosity can be powerful tools when mixed together. Your to move past a situa tion and find a much better path is likely to emerge. Others often seek you out for advice; they want some of this magic! Tonight: Go to the gym first.

Sagittariu­s (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

You might have a difficult time feeling energized now. Don’t push yourself so hard. You could hear some news that encourages a lively conversati­on. People could fly off the handle, but by then, you will be a big ball of energy. Tonight: Do what you want.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

You might be hard-pressed to understand where a friend is really coming from. Just when you seem to be able to focus on the conversati­on, this person is likely to close down. Try not to let yourself be so irritated by this experience. Tonight: Work off steam.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

While others seem locked in conversati­on, you will want to take a closer look at your budget. Money could be a hot topic right now. You might want to reassess a personal situation, which is likely to involve extra funds Tonight: Start pricing out your options.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

You will be able to read between the lines. Getting confirmati­on of what you see could be virtually impossible. A power play might affect a friendship. Be careful in handling this situation. Tonight: Do your best not to go overboard.
