HOROSCOPE

the block, for example. Your creativity soars, and answers appear. Tonight: Time for some fun. GEMINI ( May 21- June 20)

Complete tasks in the morning. In the afternoon, a gentle haze moves in. Before you realize it, you could be walking in a fog. It’s not just you — others feel similarly. Forcing clarity will only compound the situation. You might become frustrated, but on the other hand, you also might find time to do something you have been putting off. Tonight: At home. CANCER ( June 21- July 22)

Allow openness in financial discussions. You might be unusually resourceful, but others cannot hear your suggestions. Communication allows greater give- and- take, but don’t make any decisions just yet. Use care around machinery and all electronic items, as your mind easily drifts to yonder lands. Tonight: Share a dream. LEO ( July 23- Aug. 22)

Get an early start on the day. Listen to your instincts regarding your assets, which could involve an innate talent. You might decide not to let a conversation drag you down; however, ignoring it might not be the best idea, either. Frustration fuels anger. Tonight: Choose a stressbuster. VIRGO ( Aug. 23- Sept. 22)

Listen before acting on a decision. More information might come in. Given time, your conclusion could change. Uncertainty prevails in the evening, even though you have a lot of energy and want to get moving. Do only what you are 100 percent sure about. Tonight: Finally, others follow your lead. LIBRA ( Sept. 23- Oct. 22)

How you feel in the morning might be very different from your mood in the evening. Clarify important details, and follow through on what you feel counts. Interpersonal relationships will be highlighted. Your ability to create and imagine remains high. Tap into that energy later today. Tonight: Make it exclusive. SCORPIO ( Oct. 23- Nov. 21)

You might feel as if you are always behind the podium directing. An undefined swing of events or a change in energy finds you on the lead horse. As a result, success seems guaranteed. You might be stunned by the difference between reality and your perceptions. Tonight: Where people are. SAGITTARIUS ( Nov. 22- Dec. 21)

Reach out for more information. A longdistance contact could be involved. You might be unsure of which way to head, as you juggle your home life with different, and nearly opposing, interests. Give time a chance to work its magic, and you will like the results. Tonight: Into the wee hours. CAPRICORN ( Dec. 22- Jan. 19)

Your imagination blazes in a discussion, and what emerges is a willingness to break past selfimposed mental boundaries. The ability to conceptualize and express some of your thoughts could be difficult later. Just wait a day or two, and try not to worry so much. Tonight: Let your mind lead the way. AQUARIUS ( Jan. 20- Feb. 18)

A partner or friend is relieved. Finally, you make time for him or her. Your recent popularity has been overwhelming, and this person has powerful feedback for you, if you are willing to listen. Confusion surrounds money. Be careful when dealing with an associate who expresses his or her anger. Pull back some. Tonight: Go for something cozy. PISCES ( Feb. 19- March 20)

Your understanding could be distinctly altered by the rose- colored shades you’re wearing. You could find yourself feeling disappointed, but realize that the cause is your distorted reality. Much can be said about positive thinking. Forget losing your temper. Tonight: Go with a suggestion.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Thursday, Oct. 11, 2012: This year you often are easygoing and fortunate; however, at times you could be fussy and difficult when it comes to dealing with certain people. Others who relate to you might not know which voice is really yours. The answer is: both! Dealing with you could be challenging, especially as you have developed a short fuse. If you are single, you are desirable, but often, people back away as they get confused by your mixed signals. It will take a diverse and understanding person to relate successfully with you. If you are attached, you easily could be driving your sweetie wild by your changeability. He or she might want to understand you better. VIRGO becomes even more critical when dealing with you.
