YOUR STARS
(SATURDAY, 12 JANUARY 2019)
ARIES (March 21-April 20) – Concentration will not be quite so easy but if you use all the will power of which you are capable, you will succeed. There will be some ups and downs in your relations with friends – these will determine who your true friends are. Avoid doing anything you feel might give rise to ill-will or raise tempers.
TAURUS (April 21-May 20) – Having caught up with your schedule, do not relax your efforts or you will once more fall behind. You will have more freedom of movement but do examine whether you are still heading in the right direction. It would be advisable to slow down a little and concentrate more on accuracy than haste.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – You will be better able to judge what others mean from the tone of their voice and their facial expression. If something relatively routine is taking a bit too long, try to do it in a different way. You would do well not to raise your hopes too high, that way they are less likely to be dashed.
CANCER (June 21-July 20) – Even if you do not like being criticized, you would do well to listen to and take heed of well meant hints. You will feel like making a change or two, but do make sure you do not discard anything that is still of value to you. Try to be systematic and spend a little time better organizing yourself.
LEO (July 21-Aug. 20) – Save time by all means but not by doing things less well than you know you should. Try to keep things as simple as possible; there is nothing to be gained from creating complications. You will be able to take positive steps towards the ends at which you were aiming. VIRGO (Aug 21-Sept. 22) – Instead of doing what you want to do at all costs, you should count the cost carefully and proceed only if it is worthwhile. Do not allow yourself to be diverted into attending to a number of secondary matters before you have dealt with the vital ones.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) – Act only when you are good and ready – if you miss this occasion there will be others to come. There is nothing to be ashamed about promoting your self-interest. Where love is concerned do put your partner’s feelings first. Judge others by no more stringent standards than you apply to yourself.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 22) – You will finally discover a small detail you have overlooked. Though small, it could have created a lot of difference. A phase when nothing appears to have been going right is now drawing to an end. You will come across a new fact that will make all the difference to the way you do things.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 20) – You will be able to overcome some initial doubts but beware of becoming a little too over-confident.
If you have delegated some of your tasks, it would do you well to always check how they are being performed. Avoid being stubborn; be ready to compromise if that is plainly the correct thing to do.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 21-Jan. 19) – Others will be willing to help you, provided you make it clear that you are equally prepared to help them. If you do not quite know what to do, try to deliberate a little longer rather than doing what first comes to mind. A small argument will help to clarify your views on the subject.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – Instead of having regrets that you are not better off, consider how much worse things could have been. What initially seemed like a purposeless conversation will have more meaning than it first appears. Do not therefore be too keen to cut others short, listen attentively first.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – You will be pestered by something that keeps going wrong. Finding the solution will not be easy and until you do you will just have to learn to live with it. Now is the time to get a definite commitment to replace a rather vague assurance. There will be some interruptions so keep your objectives in mind.
