LOVE AND THE STARS

- JACQUELINE BIGAR

Aries (March 21-April 19) Your impulsiven­ess might cause a problem, especially if you trigger a partner because of it. Good sense will make all the difference. Your fiery ways are likely to mark the afternoon. Tonight: Make it your day to do what you want. Taurus (April 20-May 20) Follow through on what is needed. You could be overwhelme­d by certain situations that arise unexpected­ly. It would be wise to take a step back for now. Be aware of what is happening around you. Tonight: Nap, then decide. Gemini (May 21-June 20) Honor a request from a friend or an associate. This person often is a supporter of yours. Make sure you do the same when he or she is in need. Look for new solutions when someone drops the ball. Tonight: As you like it. Cancer (June 21-July 22) You might want to rethink a personal matter that often bothers you. If you don’t handle this issue appropriat­ely, you will end up feeling angry. Accept a higher-up’s feedback, even if you don’t agree. Tonight: Accept an invitation. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) Don’t stand on ceremony with a situation that arises today. Detach and read between the lines. At the same time, be aware of a tendency to get angry and bottle up those feelings; they can backfire on you. Tonight: Follow the music. Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You will discover that a lot is happening behind the scenes. Don’t run away from these situations. In order to have a calm life, you need to handle these issues. Know that everything will work itself out. Tonight: Chat over a dinner. Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You will gain insight through a conversati­on with a friend. Explore your options carefully. You could get some powerful feedback from this person. You don’t need to agree, but you do have to listen. Tonight: Where you want to be. Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Evaluate what is happening around you. Consider how a minor change could improve the situation. There are many options you might have closed off. Now is the time to open one of them up. Tonight: Do something just for you. Sagittariu­s (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You might need to manage a situation differentl­y from how you have in the past. Your ability to make a difference in someone’s life emerges. You are likely to help this person see a better idea as a result. Tonight: Off to the gym. Capricorn (Dec . 22-Jan. 19) Pressure builds on the homefront. You could create more tension than need be because of a judgment you are making. Try to put less pressure on yourself.

A boss could be very touchy and difficult. In fact, you might find yourself feeling closed off from this person. Know that this, too, will pass. Tonight: Hang out with a pal. Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) Be aware of your spending patterns, and assess the likely outcome of your choices. If you take that informatio­n to heart, you will be able to head in the right direction. Do whatever you can to empower yourself. Tonight: Pay bills first. Born Today Film director John Huston (1906), author Conrad Aiken (1889), writer Guy de Maupassant (1850)
