Right now, the time is ripe for an inner resolution or reflection. You could lose your temper out of the blue and damage a relationship. Unexpected events open up your perspective. Greg Griesenaver/KANSAN *TAURUS (April 20-May 20) ***** You can zero in on what you want. Meetings and networking can help point你 in the right direction. You could be jolted by the cost of a project or another's request. Consider what is going on with others; you can be sure something is happening. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) **** Take charge and honor your feelings. Realize more of what you need and expect from a professional situation. You will gain as a result. Listen well to someone you care about, even if he or she could irritate you at the same time. CANCER (June 21- July 22) ****** Your mind drills. Substantiate information and news you hear. Facts might not be facts, as you could discover! Your follow-through could make a big difference. New beginnings happen because of who you are. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) ***** How you verbalize your thoughts and share your feelings might be restructured by information that heads your way. Work with individuals rather than groups. A friend might cost you a lot more than you'd anticipated. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) ***** Others might come on strong. Though on some level you could be irritated, you will think that the best approach is a direct one. Sometimes you need to regroup and think through your ideas. Others knock on your door. Decide if you want to let them in. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) **** A decision that impacts your daily life could be important. You might make a major change for the better. Gaining a perspective of the long-term implications of this decision might be hard. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ***** Your sixth sense will lead you if you allow it to. You might have your hands full with someone close who just might be exercising his or her power. Don't get irritated. Everyone has a right to feel whatever he or she wants. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) ****** Your words draw strong reactions, and not all of them are positive, Trust, however, that you'll motivate others to get off their duffs. Calls and news might distract you from the business at hand. Make that OK. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) ★★★ Rather than get distracted by others' uproar, emphasize your priorities. You will accomplish a lot quite efficiently. Many of you will want to pull away from others, as they can be so annoying! AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) *★★★ You hit a brick wall with a creative project and those you care about. Take your time. Isolate yourself if need be. Responses could be interesting if you don't take comments personally. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) ***** You jump up and down with energy and enthusiasm. Today you are the zodiac's cheerleader. Others respond to your spirit and happiness. Someone might be jealous because you are not focused on him or her.
