Your stars
ARIES (March 21 to April 19) — When talking to partners and close friends today, don’t let negative comments get you down. We all feel a bit critical of the world around us from time to time.
TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) — This is a good day to do heavy mental work or any task that requires disciplined thinking. Your critical faculties are sharp, and your personal standards are high.
GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) — This is an excellent day to teach young minds, because they have patience, and so do you. Remember the advice of Goethe: ‘‘Criticism does much but encouragement does more’’.
CANCER (June 21 to July 22) — Do not be discouraged if a family member is critical of you today. It might be more a reflection of who this person is rather than of who you are. Lighten up. You are just fine.
LEO (July 23 to August 22) — Do not let negative thinking paralyse you. You can reverse this psychological trend by thinking thoughts like, ‘‘I like me’’. Try it.
VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) — Money might be a concern today. You might not have enough to do something that you want to do, or you might feel discouraged about your earnings. Let this go.
LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) — You might meet a real character today. Or perhaps someone you know, probably a female, will do something that surprises you. It’s not a boring day!
SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) — Today your mind is focused, and because of this, you can do excellent research. You won’t stop looking for answers and solutions.
SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) —A conversation with someone older or more experienced will benefit you today, even though it might discourage you. Just take what is good and leave it at that.
CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) — A boss, parent, teacher or member of the police might rain on your parade today. This is because this is a tough day to deal with authority figures. Stay chill.
AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) — Someone might disagree with your ideas about religion, politics or racial matters. Don’t worry; you are modern, and most of you were born 50 years ahead of your time.
PISCES (February 19 to March 20) — Don’t get discouraged about debt or how things are regarding shared property. Just begin working from where you are and slowly make improvements.
YOU BORN TODAY — You are an optimist who is elegant and fairminded. You have style and sensitivity. You are a good judge of character. The year ahead will be one of fast action, change and new opportunities! Expect to meet adventure and stimulating situations. You will have chances to travel and expand your world, plus learn new things. Embrace change. Let your personal freedom be your goal.
