2B Quick Looks Friday November 14,1997 HOROSCOPES Today's birthday (Nov. 14) Keep quiet today and don't let a secret be heard. This could ruin your weekend. Save all your work for later because you have a big weekend ahead of you. Aries: Today is an 8. The Moon moves into Aries' house and sets the world on fire. Today the Ram is in a mood to charge. Follow through on new ideas, driving them hard toward the finish line. Taurus: Today is a 6. Today you are the invisible observer. Remaining quiet and unnoticed will keep you out of the chaos that flutters around you. Neutrality is a useful strategy, but do not confuse it with a goal. Gemini: Todav is an 8. Reach out to co-workers or business associates and bring them into your social circle. Discover the human being behind the business persona. You delight someone by simply being yourself. Cancer: Today is a 4. An unpleasant interaction with authority figures leaves you feeling small and helpless. A single incident doesn't have to signify a trend. Find a sympathetic ear and a soft shoulder to help you cry away your blues. Release some of that excess energy with a display of physical vigor. Team players will have their moment of glory by making a winning move. Avoid heated debates -- your power could make you irrational. Libra: Todav is a 9. Watch for headaches today from too much stress. Go out and treat yourself to something you've been craving lately. Nothing relieves tension like a satisfied urge. Virgo: Today is a 6. Sagittarius; Today is an 8. All is not running smoothly in the romance department. One of the people in your relationship is being too demanding -- it's not you, is it? Tonight, get it on. Scorpio: Today is a 5. Sometimes nobody will listen unless you raise your voice. Do not use any more force than necessary to get people's attention. This is a day for rational method, not blind heroics. Capricorn: Today is a 7. Aquarius: Today is an 8. Today feels like the first day of summer vacation, no matter what season it really is. Everyone around you is playful, and everything seems possible. In this state of mind, big, outrageous plans unfold naturally. Every brilliant thought has its time and place. This a good day for getting your ideas across, but you may have some opposition. On the other hand, someone might embrace your facetious suggestion with great excitement. Pisces: Today is a 6. You feel compelled to stay at or near home today, perhaps because of a minor household repair, or a sick partner or child. You're in luck if you've been looking for an excuse to escape from work for a day. Chaos looms when there is no clear chain of command. You are tempted to take charge just because everyone else is trying to as well. Distance yourself from the problem before you make it worse.
