LOVE AND THE STARS

- JACQUELINE BIGAR

Aries (March 21-April 19)

What you hear and what your expectatio­ns are might not line up, which could cause a sense of irritation or anger. Pressure builds as you try to detach from the disappoint­ment. Try to accept what has happened and let go of the situation. Tonight: Ever playful.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Listen to your inner voice about what you want. You have a good idea of what to do and when. Your sense of humor emerges as a situation involving a friend radically changes. Know the ramificati­ons involved here. Tonight: Be a duo without expectatio­ns.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Question a person’s intentions if he or she seems too eager to give too much. You also might not want to allow your high expectatio­ns to take over. A family member means well, but he or she could cause enormous friction. Tonight: Let someone else make a suggestion.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

You could have many expectatio­ns of a stranger who has just entered your usual crowd. You might not know what would be best to do under the present circumstan­ces. Understand what is happening around you. Play it low-key for the next few days. Tonight: Get plenty of R and R.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

You might be experienci­ng more mood swings than usual. You could be withdrawn and then later as talkative as can be. Others could be reactive, far more than you thought possible. They are responding to you; keep that in mind. Tonight: Let the party go on and on.

Virgo (Aug, 23-Sept. 22)

An authority figure, perhaps an older relative or friend, could be demanding. You might feel pressured, but know that you have the wherewitha­l to do what you must. You will want to keep the peace yet also have your free time. Tonight: Prove that you can handle multiple gears.

Libra (Sept.23-Oct.22)

You have the right words, but a certain fussiness seems to emerge from you. You might wonder why you accept certain situations as they are. Think and reflect. Don’t make changes until you root out the present issue. Tonight: A conversati­on is most enlighteni­ng.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Get an early start to the day. You might surprise yourself by how much you have to do in order to keep the peace. In your present situation, you might toss good sense aside and get a little wild. Remember there is always tomorrow. Tonight: Treat someone to dinner.

Sagittariu­s (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

You have new vitality today, which many have missed for a few days. A higher-up will choose to give you a compliment. Be gracious. Though some of you might not hear these compliment­s, know that they exist in someone’s mind. Tonight: The world is your oyster.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Use the later part of the day for a much-coveted project or get-together. You might not need to share what you are doing right now. In fact, you could feel inclined to say nothing, and that would be a smart move. You will find out why later. Tonight: All smiles, but saying little.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

You have little to say and much to do. Friends surround you and prevent you from seeing the big picture, but it won’t bother you. You enjoy your life far more now than in the recent past. Avoid problems, and make sure you know what you need to do. Tonight: The party goes on.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

You have a way of getting closer to a certain person. Be careful, as you could find that the reality of this bond is much different from how you had imagined. Back off, if you can. Do not get feisty with those who have authority over you. Tonight: A force to be dealt with.
