HOROSCOPES
ARIES (March 21-April 19): The search for love and companionship can challenge your judgment. Don’t mistake lust for love or possessiveness for affection. Wait for better celestial patterns.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You may feel an affinity for the tarot card that depicts a hoodwinked maiden. Like her, you may not be able to see everything clearly because your fantasies and desires blind you to facts.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Act on your finest instincts and highest ideals and you will achieve harmony that stabilizes a key relationship. Make permanent improvements that enrich the future.
CANCER (June 21-July 22): Someone could be impressed by your stockpile of business knowledge. This may be a good time to turn a profit on what has only been a hobby. You may misinterpret some messages.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Business ideas and ambition motivates you but acting on instant gratification can backfire. This is a poor week for a new romantic partnership. Something worth having it is worth waiting for.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Doublecheck dates and numbers. You might find your schedule is disrupted by minor mix-ups and miscommunications. At the end of the week you will forget there were problems.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You are judged by the company you keep. If you feel that others are not supporting your goals you may, unwisely, try to force the issue. Remain focused on business as usual.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Concentrate on work and maintaining momentum even if someone is in relentless pursuit. There is time for romantic meetings later.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): People will trust you if you are frank. This is a poor week to make a promise, investment or to start a new relationship.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Keep your nose to the grindstone. You might rather be out partying, but it will be hard work and perseverance that provide the greatest rewards. Enjoy the holidays when there is time.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Once you get to know someone better you may detect strong ethics. However, that serious side may dampen your expectations. A little patience will pay off in a romantic connection.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Wrap up business deals and presents. Complete what you have begun. Wait until the end of the week to adjust your finances or make more holiday purchases.
IF DEC. 23 IS YOUR BIRTHDAY: Focus on the “onefor-all and all-for-one” philosophy the next few weeks. You will be at your best in groups or with friends but must don’t be too competitive. In February and March, you could get carried away by romantic fantasies or become dissatisfied with partner or job.
