HOROSCOPE

ARIES (March 20-April 19): You don’t like settling for half-measures, but that might be the best you can expect from current circumstances. At least it keeps you in the game.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Are you trumpeting accomplishments too much? It’s always better to let others do that for you. And given half a chance, they will.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Friends think you’re making a mountain out of a molehill, but stand by what you know is right. The truth will eventually come out.

CANCER (June 21-July 21): Don’t let paranoia get the better of you. There’s a reasonable explanation for a partner’s behavior. And it’s simpler than you think.

LEO (July 22-Aug. 22): You’ve gone to the well too many times as far as loved ones are concerned. You need to spend some quality time with them before sympathies run dry.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Stop treating a co-worker like a problem. If you want this person to come through for you then focus on the best that s/he has to offer. Positive reinforcement works wonders.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Watch it with the royal “we.” You may be speaking for others who see matters differently.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): You can’t make someone stay if he doesn’t want to. But where does it say you have to make things easy? There’s nothing wrong with letting him hang on the horns of a dilemma.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 20): Despite best efforts to be enlightening, you may have to face facts — some people just have to find out for themselves.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 21-Jan. 19): Be generous when settling a financial matter because scrimping now could cost you further down the line.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 17): A thankless obligation ends up becoming an enormous asset. Sometimes those tedious endeavors really do pay off.

PISCES (Feb. 18-March 19): The more heated you get, the more turned off others become. This could undermine your position if you’re not careful. You need to adopt a more dispassionate approach.
