HOROSCOPE

ARIES (March 20-April 18): Is your criticism really coming from the right place or is it based on one-upmanship? Examine your motives before others crossexamine them for you.

TAURUS (April 19-May 19): A loved one shows signs of reemerging from a weeklong funk. Be helpful, but don’t push it. He’s still a little wobbly on his feet.

GEMINI (May 20-June 19): Watch it with the contrarian tendencies. Not only does it get on people’s nerves but they may even leave you alone with your own misguided ideas.

CANCER (June 20-July 21): It’s amazing! No sooner do you get a little extra cash in your pocket then you receive a bill for almost the same amount. Look at it this way: at least you broke even.

LEO (July 22-Aug. 21): Harping on the negatives won’t help your loved one or you. It’s better to radiate warm rays of encouragement than to glower behind overcast skies.

VIRGO (Aug. 22-Sept. 21): You’re about to find that people will forgive a lot. To err is not only human—it can even be healthy.

LIBRA (Sept. 22-Oct. 21): You made some changes to be a part of your lover’s life, so what’s he doing to be a part of yours? Put requests in writing so he can get used to the idea.

SCORPIO (Oct. 22-Nov. 20): Don’t go with your first reaction. It may feel like the same old fight, but the other side is trying to change for the better.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 21-Dec. 20): You’re hurt that a friend didn’t take you into her confidence sooner. But chances are you would have played it just as close to the vest.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 21-Jan. 18): You work hard to win people’s approval, so you should know what it’s like when someone seeks the same from you. Don’t be such a hard-ass.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 19-Feb. 17): There’s no act too small or favor too trivial. Good works create a ripple effect that spread throughout your day.

PISCES (Feb. 18-March 19): Just because you can forgive and forget doesn’t mean other people can. Expect to pick your way around smoldering resentment for days to come.
