YOUR STARS

(THURSDAY, 9 FEBRUARY 2017)

ARIES (March 21-April 20) – Try to be a little more patient and you will be able to avoid a certain amount of unpleasantness. Always try to keep your objectives very much in mind. If you try to rush you will not get there much faster and the cost in nervous energy may well not be worthwhile. TAURUS (April 21-May 20) – There will be some unexpected heavy expense, so curb your outgoings until it is met. After a tiring day at work, you should make sure you get sufficient rest. Though you will be able to catch up on a backlog of work, you should not take on any additional projects at this time. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – You should put your family first if you have to choose between a purchase for your family or for yourself. Always give others a chance to say what is on their mind. This could be a good period for you provided you can overcome a reluctance to do some unpleasant tasks that have to be done. CANCER (June 21-July 20) – There is a tendency to feel rather listless and you will find it a little difficult to get out of this feeling just now. Just to be on time, you will now have to suspend something you are in the process of doing. You will be able to do something practical and practicable only you must not beat around the bush. LEO (July 21-Aug. 20) – Once more things will take much longer but you must not allow that to tempt you into becoming more superficial. Now may be a good time to venture into something different but you will have to proceed with extreme caution. Do not be slow to show your appreciation of a favor a friend has done you. VIRGO (Aug 21-Sept. 22) – You will discover you are going through certain things in the wrong way; try to examine the possibility of using a different method. The general situation is a bit confusing; do be careful where sentimental affairs are concerned. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) – Plan your actions carefully and see to it that your own interests are not ignored. You can achieve a great deal now; private and personal affairs will be most interesting. You will finally be able to make progress with a matter that is very important to you. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 22) – Something you have said to a colleague is likely to cause some misunderstanding; you will still have the time to correct it. Express your emotions without letting them become predominant in your life. Avoid making yourself too conspicuous, but do make sure you do not look eccentric either. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 20) – Monetary prospects in the near future are not so rosy, so think again before pushing through with new expenditures. It will do you good to do something slightly different but do not abandon what you are doing half-finished. This is a time of transition – keep your values and principles very much in mind. CAPRICORN (Dec. 21-Jan. 19) – There is no need to be afraid of doing something just out of the ordinary; just leave yourself with some margin for error. You have just enough time and will be able to get a lot done so you must not be too impetuous. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – It would be better for you to be a littler slower and more thorough rather than rushing things and having to revise later. Even though some things looked good in the past, you still have to look forward to better things in the future. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – You will face a rather serious situation but it will have its funny side too. Having decided what to do, make sure you do not just assume others who need to do so know about your intentions. Deal with a difficulty and do not attempt to sweep it under the carpet.
