Horoscopes

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Wednesday, Nov. 14, 2018:

This year you approach your domestic life with greater focus. You will want more freedom to do what you want.

You also might be considering adding on to your home, remodelling it or relocating. If you are single, a new sweetie could be driving this compulsion. Be sure that you want this commitment.

If you are attached, the two of you work well as a team. What you create will be a reflection of who both of you are.

Aquarius encourages you to take a walk on the wild side.

The stars show the kind of day you’ll have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

★★★ Touch base with a friend before you get too distracted by what’s going on. You are likely to enjoy your exchanges with this person, and you also could receive some helpful information. You might want to ask questions about what is happening.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

★★★ Look beyond the obvious and consider alternatives. Reach out to several people in your life who could be sources of great ideas. A loved one expresses his or her concern over finances, and wants to know that you’re on track.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

★★★ Reach out to someone who might be mentally distant or closed off. Once you get this person’s attention, you can explore certain options. You might be amazed by how clearly this person can explain your situation and its possibilities.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

★★★ Reach out to someone you genuinely care about. The way you see a personal matter could change dramatically after a serious conversation. Emphasize effectiveness and precision. You will like the results of heading down a new path.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

★★★ You can choose to be lazy and do nothing, if you’d like. In fact, the less you do today, the better. Have a longoverdue discussion, but only if the oth- er party makes the first move to initiate it. Others are likely to honour your ideas.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

★★★ Get to the bottom of a problem. Discussions are animated. Each person seems to want to make his or her points dramatic and memorable. Getting through this charade could take talent. Just be present and listen carefully to what is shared.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

★★★ When facing a jumbled mess, you approach the problem from a position of sensitivity and no judgment. Maintain a sense of humour. People often confide in you and share their secrets with you. Listen well, but be sure to keep these matters hush-hush.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

★★★ You can push as hard as you want, but the other party still might not move away from his or her position. In fact, you might cause this person to take a more formidable stand than he or she normally would. A discussion needs to occur in an easy, relaxed manner.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

★★★ Reach out to someone whose advice you trust. This person is in a similar situation and can easily identify with you. Talks between you will reveal quite a few commonalities. Don’t fall for the ploy of someone you don’t trust. Others tend to agree with you.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

★★★ You might want to review your budget before you make any more commitments, whether for the holidays or for necessity. At this time of the year, you might be more prone to financial errors. Only you can determine the validity of someone else’s offer.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

★★★★ You might notice that everyone seems to be reaching out to you, and somehow, even if you’re not involved, you could become the centre of quite a few projects! Think before you say too much or give your opinions too easily.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

★★★ If you feel somewhat under the weather, slow down and take care of yourself. Something might be bothering you that needs to be dealt with. You can’t always absorb hostility and say nothing. It’s how you say what you’re thinking that makes the difference.
