LOVE AND THE STARS

Aries (March 21-April 19)

You might be in a funk until the afternoon. Then suddenly, you might start acting as if life poses no limits. Use your strong energy for a project if you don’t decide to go off and join friends. Remember, it is your choice and your day to play. Tonight: Noticed wherever you are.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

A friend might show up in the morning with a suggestion or an invitation. It is your call. You also could enjoy some time away from the crowds with a loved one. Your smile goes a long way in helping others to relax. Tonight: Choose something quiet but entertaining.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Handle an important responsibility or project. If you do that, the weekend will flow much better. Your creativity flourishes. You could attract someone who is very different from the last time you visited together. You might need to adjust. Tonight: Go to extremes with your pals.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Some of you might decide to take off at the last minute. Wherever you land, you will feel at home. Others could decide to hang out close to home. If you do, be willing to say “no” to several requests that feel like work. Tonight: A must appearance.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Reach out to a loved one at a distance. It is possible that both of you will decide to meet at a halfway point. Start making plans now, or simply take off. In any case, opt for a change of scenery; you will feel refreshed as a result. Tonight: Try out a new place with a friend.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Understand what is going on behind the scenes through a conversation with a trusted friend. You feel energized and ready for a romp. Put yourself in a situation where you feel free to be spontaneous. Release your inner child. Tonight: Choose a favorite stressbuster.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Get personal matters handled, so that when an invitation to frolic the night away with friends heads your way, you will be able to say “yes.” Follow your instincts with a health matter. You seem to have a strong sense about what is going on. Tonight: Sort through the possibilities.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

You’ll be considering what you would like to do. Confusion surrounds your plans. A friend might choose to do something that you could find boring, while others plan to get together for a fun event. Tonight: What started out as a quick visit will go till the wee hours.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Reach out to a stressed-out friend to talk and share. By the afternoon, you might want to pull back and do what you want. In any case, taking time for yourself is imperative, especially to prevent you from feeling drained. Tonight: Whatever goes on needs to happen at your pad.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

You’ll have an opportunity to make a point and have others listen. Whether they “get it” depends on your communication skills and their willingness to hear your message. Pushing a point with someone who is resistant would be a mistake. Tonight: At a favorite spot.
