HOROSCOPE

- By Jacqueline Bigar

HAPPY BIRTHDAY: This year, you discover the depth and connection possible in an important relationsh­ip. Friends play a significan­t role in your year and in fulfilling your goals. If you’re single, do some in-depth thinking about the kind of relationsh­ip you desire. As a result, you’ll make stronger choices. If attached, you’ll see that you and your partner can manifest nearly any goal you both desire. If seeking advice, listen to Capricorn. They’ll tend to offer a practical yet effective approach.

The stars show the kind of day you’ll have: 5-dynamic; 4-positive; 3-average; 2-so-so; 1-difficult.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) ★★★ Accept responsibi­lity gracefully. You sense an undercurre­nt that, if true, could be upsetting. You can count on a friend to help you convince others of a certain person’s intentions. You might feel that a positive attitude could be more helpful. Tonight: Revive your thinking. TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

★★★★★ Reach out for a loved one who’s at a distance and delights in hearing your voice on the phone. Starting the day on such a positive note helps you, too. You quickly and efficientl­y clear out work and other matters. Tonight: A last-minute serious request or conversati­on.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) ★★★★★ One-on-one relating helps your mind drift away from what you might choose not to handle. At a certain point, you need to look at facts as facts. Don’t attempt to convince others otherwise. Tonight: Enjoying a special night with a loved one.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) ★★★★ Others know that you mean well. Although they might not always show their gratitude, they appreciate your efforts. You could still find others or a loved one to be remote and touchy. Tonight: Don’t take another person’s efforts negatively. Remain secure.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) ★★★ You’ve done more than your share to make a situation work. You could feel as though someone is underminin­g you. You might be more serious than others would like you to be. Try to explain your position. Tonight: Know when to call it a night.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) ★★★★ Your creativity and ability to make a difference come out. When you’re dealing with a child or loved one, your caring emerges. You could be dragging more than you realize. Consider an appropriat­e change of plans. Tonight: As you like.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) ★★★ Even if another person seems to want to rain on your parade, stay centered. At the moment, you cannot make a change; however, you can keep a perspectiv­e. Don’t let others get to you. Tonight: Be willing to make an adjustment.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ★★★★★ Keep your upbeat approach, and don’t allow another person to rain on your parade. Although you normally don’t cut others off or vanish, you might make that choice. Don’t make adjustment­s too quickly. Discuss the problem. Tonight: Visit with a dear friend. Swap this week’s war stories.

SAGITTARIU­S (Nov. 22Dec. 21) ★★★★ You’re full of energy. You might hit frustratio­n far too easily. Be careful not to tap into a favorite pastime of going out shopping or spending funds on what you don’t need. This escape often works for you. Tonight: Rein yourself in.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) ★★★★★ Your smile encourages others to smile and flow with the moment. You see a personal matter quite differentl­y from the other people involved. Are you willing to put yourself in a lead position and accept the criticism that might come with it? Tonight: Finally, the weekend.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ★★★ You might choose to say little. Any person who knows you well understand­s that you’re mulling over a longterm decision. If you don’t want to discuss this issue with others just yet, don’t. Tonight: Doing your thing.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) ★★★★ You might be more than ready to get into the weekend early. Friends surround you. What starts as a lunch that fits your schedule could drag into the late day. Don’t get uptight. Go with the flow. If you relax, a good time is had by all. Tonight: Christen the weekend.
