HOROSCOPES
TURUIS (April 29-May 20) ★★★★

GEMINI (May 21- June 20) ★★★

Tonight: Lie back. Some time off.
CANCER (Jane 21-July 22) ★★★★☆
You zero in on what you want. You are
close to unstoppable. Line up your ducks
and network all you need to. A meeting
could transform into a happening. Be
careful with your money. You don't have
to overspend.
Tonight: Get together with friends.
LUBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) ******
A partner takes a much stronger stand than he or she has in the past. Together a new idea arises. You might be disappointed by what a friend does or doesn't do. New beginnings become possible, financially and emotionally.
Tonight: togetherness.
VIRGOL (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) *****
What at first makes you uncomfortable turns into a catalyst. You break your patterns, going past the obvious -- and quickly at that. Seek out experts. Explore very different ideas. Walk down a new path.
Tonight: Try a new restaurant.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) ★★★★

Tonight: No early bedtime for you!
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ★★★★
If you let others have their way, you will like what happens. If you challenge others, might be left out in the cold. You can always say no to a plan or bad idea. Have more faith in the people who surround you.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22-Dec. 21) *****
Dig into your work and get the job done.

Tonight: Easy does it.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) ******
Your imagination delights those who do not have heavy or serious concerns. You could inadvertently irritate a close associate who has a lot on her or her mind. This too will pass. Add more zip to your daily life. Someone's suggestion might surprise you.
Tonight: Love the moment.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) **** Others might be challenging. You could be happiest staying close to home or isolating yourself. If you are able to work from home, you might want to think about it. Spruce up your personal space. Tonight: Relax at home.
PICSCE (Feb. 19-March 20) *****
If you are tired, find a more efficient way or creative solution. You don't need to do everything all by yourself. A discussion draws many ideas to make your life much easier. Learn to communicate more often.
