HOROSCOPE

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Find solutions, but don’t implement your plans just yet. Bide your time and only use the alternative you have come up with if necessary. Keeping the peace will enable you to manipulate your position strategically when the time is right.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Being accommodating will lead to further requests. Don’t let anyone take advantage of you. Compliments are nice, but make sure you are being reimbursed properly for the contributions you make. Focus on personal improvement, not on helping others.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Intellect mixed with enthusiasm will bring you closer to your long-term goals. Someone from your past might be sending you mixed signals. Don’t get sucked in to an uncertain situation.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Look for the new and exciting. Try something different and visit people and places that offer mental stimulation and the chance to grow spiritually, emotionally and intellectually. Include someone you love in your journey and it will improve your relationship.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): A change will do you good. A different point of view or way of doing things will motivate you to make changes at home or within your social group. Make a subtle change to your appearance and you’ll boost your confidence.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Get your house in order. Expect someone to complain if you haven’t lived up to a promise that you made. Plan to do something special that will help smooth things over. Adding to your entertainment at home will win points.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Use incentives to get others to pitch in. Emotional manipulation and shouting will lead to a bigger problem and possible isolation. Use brains over brawn and you will find a way to get things done and have time for pleasure.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You’ll give the wrong impression if you let your emotions take over. Don’t exaggerate about what you have or can contribute. You will be held accountable and must proceed with caution when asked to make a commitment.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Observe what everyone else does or says. Gather information, but refrain from letting anyone know where you stand. There will be far too many variables and changes that can lead to a tight spot if you are too quick to divulge your position.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Reevaluate what you have to offer and you’ll find an innovative way to generate more cash. Work on what you enjoy doing most. Don’t be afraid to do things differently. Positive change is within your reach. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): A change of attitude is likely to develop due to a situation that affects your reputation or position. Damage control can be helpful, but it must be done with precision, truth and conviction. A partnership can cost you if you are gullible or too accommodating.
