LOVE AND THE STARS

Aries (March 21-April 19)

You might feel a bit off as you change gears to weekend mode. In the early morning, someone could describe you as irritable. Don’t worry so much -- you are full of ideas, and you will be able to enjoy yourself far more than you thought possible. Tonight: Carry on.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

You could be surprised by everything you hear. When someone says that a matter is confidential, stay mum, even if you don’t agree that the secret is worth keeping. Take time to complete a particular project. Tonight: Keep your whereabouts hush-hush.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

You might feel as if your actions won’t make much of a difference. A loved one will communicate what he or she would like to do, but only after you already have made plans. Curb your frustration, and use your creativity to find a solution. Tonight: Where the action is.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Reach out to someone at a distance. You tend to accept a lot of responsibility that others won’t. A family member or loved one is hot under the collar and is likely to be difficult. You can do only so much. Focus on where you can make a difference. Tonight: Out and being noticed.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Speak to people who can help you get past an immediate problem. This type of contact is important. Your perspective could radically change as a result. Brainstorm with people whose minds you respect, but who come up with very different ideas. Tonight: Be near live music.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

One-on-one relating allows you to connect with certain people on a much more intimate level than usual. People reveal more when they feel that they are important and that their feelings are valued. Family remains a high priority. Tonight: Out with a special person.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Others could be unusually challenging, which might trigger some anger on your part. You tend to be diplomatic, and as a result, you don’t openly share your feelings. Change what you are doing, and let go of disappointment for now. Tonight: Let someone else run the show.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

You have a project on the back burner that you need to work on. You might find that you are sitting on a lot of anger, which seems to emerge at the drop of a hat. Find out why you are feeling this way. Perhaps you aren’t in sync with what is going on. Tonight: Rent a movie.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Your adventurous style encourages you to take strange risks. You might want to say “no” to more wild decisions for now; otherwise, you could hit a snafu eventually. A close friend or loved one will express his or her support. Tonight: Add more spirit to the moment.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Stay close to home, knowing that you would like to cocoon for a little while. You might enjoy taking a nap, turning off your cellphone and letting the outside world exist without you. Everyone will be able to manage. Tonight: Try a new neighborhood hot spot.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

You’ll speak your mind and get plenty of feedback from a friend. Reach out to a loved one who tends to be somewhat difficult. You might not like what you hear, but you’ll know to take what this person says with a grain of salt. Tonight: Hang out at home.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Before you splurge on a big expense, make sure you really want this item. You could discover that you are simply riding an impulsive wave and will change your mind later. Do some comparison shopping before deciding to move forward. Tonight: Make it your treat.
