HOROSCOPES

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Saturday, Sept. 9, 2017:

This year you enter a phase of greater clarity and potential. You might not be as effusive as you have been in the past, but you certainly have a great personality and an ability to manifest your desires. Others often enlist you in helping them fulfill a goal or dream. If you are single, you will not have to go far to meet the right person: You might run into this person even pulling out of your driveway! An unexpected element could be involved. If you are attached, the two of you proceed and follow through on a major goal. TAURUS often uses your practicality to strengthen a plan.

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

Someone could let you know how much you are valued. This person has no expectation that you respond in kind; this simply is how he or she feels. Others start to share and be more vulnerable than they have been in months. Get into this moment. There is little guarantee that it is forever. Tonight: All smiles.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

You express a willingness to get into the moment this afternoon. Others often expect you to hold back and decide to do what you want. You flow with the moment and what is occurring. Others appreciate your efforts. Tonight: Beam in more of what you want. Go for it. Do not hesitate.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

You could be ready to take a stand, but it appears that you, of all signs, don’t have a receptive audience. Lie low and remain prepared to handle any hassle that might come forward. You don’t need to share a plan, but you might want some help or a brain-storming session. Tonight: Make it early. There is always tomorrow.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

You could be full of get-upand-go. Focus on accomplishing what you must in order to free yourself up. Midday, you notice a change in your tone. Friends seek you out, and getting together with others seems to be highlighted. Tonight: Where the action is.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
