YOUR STARS

(THURSDAY, 27 JULY 2017)

ARIES (March 21-April 20) – Avoid taking the credit for something you have not done. Concern yourself with positive things and leave unpleasant thoughts to one side for the day. Do your best to rid yourself of some fixed and outdated ideas. Try to see the good on both sides of a quarrel between friends. TAURUS (April 21-May 20) – You will be hard put to it to overcome a reluctance to do what needs to be done. You should try your best to preserve your sense of wonder as you get older. Do not torment yourself with unfounded fears and needless doubts. Do not think too much of a problem that can wait for a day or two. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – Make sure you do not eat anything too heavy just now; your digestion is rather sensitive. Do not spurn anything at all that might stimulate your enthusiasm. Try to be more methodical about dealing with your small daily chores. Seek to avoid doing anything that would aggravate your partner. CANCER (June 21-July 20) – Misunderstandings are more likely so do take a little extra care. You will have a bit of disappointment but will also have some pleasant aspects too. Something you have been ignoring because you thought it was of secondary importance will turn out to be of great importance. LEO (July 21-Aug. 20) – There is a greater chance of accidents so seek to rely as little as possible on chance and take extra precautions. Read instructions carefully and you will learn how to use a device more efficiently. Do be more patient, but on the other hand, do not just wait for things to happen. VIRGO (Aug 21-Sept. 22) – There is still time for you to change your mind if you are not sure, but do not delay your decision for too long. The great thing about the future is that it still has to come; so look forward to it. You are more liable to stomach upsets, so avoid exotic foods for the present. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) – Make sure you get all the rest you need, but do not indulge in indolence. You cannot afford to waste time or energy on trivialities so don’t. Avoid treating things that are similar as though they were the same. Being less dependent on others does not mean you should not play your part. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 22) – Beware of becoming involved in what does not concern you but do not try to avoid involvement in what does concern you. You would do well to think a little harder and longer before you act. Do not be afraid of using new methods, but do make sure you have alternatives. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 20) – You are slightly on the wrong track, but it is still not too late to change course. It is best to do what you think is right and not what you think others expect you to do. Remember that what you say on the phone is no less binding than what you say face to face. CAPRICORN (Dec. 21-Jan. 19) – Avoid dissipating your energies on pointless pursuits, but do not be too hasty when deciding what is pointless. If you wait for others to make the first move, they will and you will have to follow suit reducing your freedom of action. Do not carry on with something that is getting nowhere at all. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – Make sure that your expenditure is in balance with your income and that you save at least a little. Do not be anxious about something that might well not happen and probably won’t. Treat others with due respect and they will do the same to you. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – You should not allow some small setback to put you off your stride. Do not think it rude if someone tells you to phone back later because he is in the middle of something. A good idea of yours requires further development and some minor modifications if it is to serve its purpose.
