2B Quick Looks Monday March 8,1999 HOROSCOPES Today's Birthday (March 8). Thinking about a career change? This could be the year for it. You could hear about a way to make more money in April. It sounds too good to be true, but it's not. Work to learn the skills you'll need in May, so by August you'll be totally competent. Accept an invitation that involves travel in November but save December for career related matters. Finalize paperwork in February and settle into a permanent routine. Aries: Today is a 7 You're looking very good today and all this week. You're not only sharp, but you’re also generous, warm and cuddly. Your biggest problem is sticking to your work schedule. You’d much rather be out playing, but there will be time enough for that after business hours. Taurus: Today is a 5 You could stumble on an excellent deal that's just slightly out of your range. If you and a partner go in together, you'll be able to cincit it down. But that causes other complications. Make sure you divvy it up before you put down your money. Gemini: Today is a 6 Your favorite sparring partner is going to be in magnificent form this week. Your chances of winning are slim, but you ought to learn several interesting new tricks. This is not a good day to instigate a legal proceeding, for exactly that reason. Cancer: Today is a 6 Should you do it for the love or the money? Today, you might get to combine both. You're either doing work you love, or working with somebody you love, or loving life in general because you're making so much money. Domestic matters need attention, but once they're finished, romance takes priority. If it looks like there's not much work getting done, you're right, and that could be a problem, but not if you reschedule the work for later in the week instead. Virgo: Today is a 5 Libra: Today is a 7 Looks like this day turns out well for you, even though it's not quite the way you imagined. Instead of getting too specific on what you want, better leave some room for creativity. That way you'll be more satisfied with whatever you get. A person you find very attractive would like to teach you something today. Luckily, it's something you've been eager to learn for quite some time. You have your own ideas, of course, which you'll contribute. Sagittarius: Today is a 7 First, get your strategy worked out, and hurry. You may not have as much time for that as you'd planned. The configuration is changing, and action is required You'll be moving faster than the speed of light for the next few days. It's time to invest in fixing up your place. You've been putting off spending money, but that's not a good idea. It's going to have to be done sooner or later, and it's already later. So, go shopping for something you know you need. Capricorn: Today is a 6 A friend who owes you a favor might be able to pull some strings and help you get something you want. Looks like it's an item for your home, or perhaps even real estate itself. Is it time for you to buy another chunk of land? Aquarius: Today is a 7 you've probably been feeling repressed for the last few days. Well, that feeling is starting to fade as you realize you've won the last round. You may have even come out wealthier because of your recent maneuvering. Pisces: Today is a 6 A distant friend could lead you to a good business opportunity today. If you've been thinking about relocating, this could be your chance. It might require you to do something you've never done before, but that's not a problem.
