HOROSCOPE

ARIES (March 20-April 19): You shoot straight from the hip. Unfortunately the same cannot be said for others. Holster your more candid comments for now.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): When helping loved ones to settle their affairs (like money, possessions, or living space) it’s always a good idea to maintain a business-like demeanor. They’ll appreciate it.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Skepticism doesn’t always make you smart. Sometimes it leads to choices that undermine you. Put aside suspicions and trust in people’s higher nature.

CANCER (June 21-July 21): Stop pining away for what you don’t have. If it’s still out of reach at this point then it’s not worth it.

LEO (July 22-Aug. 22): A last minute development forces you to attend to it pronto. It’s not a crisis; in fact it may be a score!

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You’re always there to lend a hand, but do you hang around long enough for the thanks? Work without reward is like taking half a breath.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Expect things to intensify between you and an acquaintance while Venus is cazimi. The decision to pursue something more is your call.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): The problem is you’re trying to hold on to what used to work. Let go of the old rules. Choose what you want; not what you think you need.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 20): Your boss has been an unholy terror lately and wants to make up for it. The peace offering is sweet, but you could do better. Play hard to get.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 21-Jan. 19): A relationship needn’t be an either/or choice. You can be true to yourself and the other person at the same time if things are simpatico.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 17): Don’t be so quick to kiss and make up. Someone may be going through the motions of an armistice just to get you off his back.

PISCES (Feb. 18-March 19): Clear your to-do list early in the day and you’ll free up time for something much more interesting — like that co-worker who keeps manufacturing excuses to bump into you.
