HOROSCOPE |

YOU BORN TODAY You are imaginative, creative and individualistic. You are sometimes serious because of specific ideas and beliefs. This year you are wrapping up things you began nine years ago. It's time to leave behind burdens and move to something new and lighter! Start to identify what is no longer relevant in your life. You are lightening your load to get ready for new beginnings.

Birthdate of: Kate Winslet, actress; Guy Pearce, actor; Clive Barker, author.

ARIES(MARCH 21 to April 19)Don't

be discouraged if a boss or someone in authority, or perhaps the police, says something to rain on your parade today. This is just a temporary dark cloud on your horizon.

TAURUS(APRIL 20 to May 20)Someone

might come on like gangbusters today, reading the riot act or laying down rules and regulations. Respect what this person says and move on. Don't make a big deal about things.

GEMINI(MAY 21 to June 20)You

might be disappointed in your fair share of something today. There's nothing you can do about it today. (See how things look next Tuesday.)

CANCER(JUNE 21 to July 22)It's

easy to feel cut off or lonely today when dealing with friends and partners. This is because everyone feels a bit cut off today. It is what it is.

LEO(JULY 23 to Aug. 22)You

have to toe the line at work today because somebody will read you the riot act. Just do what is expected of you to keep everyone happy.

VIRGO(AUG. 23 to Sept. 22)Children

might be an increased burden or responsibility today. Oh well, it goes with the territory. (You were a kid once and a responsibility to someone else.)

LIBRA(SEPT. 23 to Oct. 22)

This is a poor day for family discussions because emotions are not flowing and people feel a bit shutdown. Try to go with the flow.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21)It's

easy to worry today. Remember the saying: "Worry is like a rocking chair. It gives you something to do but gets you nowhere."

SAGITTARIUS(NOV. 22 to Dec. 21)You

might feel broke today. The money you need to do what you want isn't there. Oh well, join the club -- we number in the millions.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19)

Today the Moon is lined up with Saturn in your sign. Consider this an opportunity for hard work, because duty is important. Feelings of depression are fleeting.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18)

Today your best option is to work alone or behind the scenes. This is how you will get the most done. (You feel less sociable and will prefer your own solitude.)

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20)

Listen to the advice of someone older or more experienced, because this person might have something valuable to offer. If not, at least listen politely to show someone respect.
