Horoscope

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Wednesday, Jan. 15, 2014: This year others present you with a different perspective more times than not. You are confident and sure of yourself, yet understanding a new way of handling life could be quite rewarding. If single, during the next six months you could meet someone quite exciting. This person will be generous, and have an excellent sense of humor. If attached, the two of you will learn to respect your differences. As a result, your bond will become more loving and exciting. Both of you will flourish. Cancer is far more emotional than you are. A baby born today has a sun in Capricorn and a moon in Cancer.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) • • • The full moon could affect your mood. You might want to exercise your “kiss and make up” technique, especially with a close associate.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) • • • • Consider opening up to new possibilities that emerge in discussions. You might be quite surprised by what occurs.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) • • • Be aware of expenses that keep arising. You might want to rethink your budget. The possibility exists that you might need to give up an indulgence.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) • • • • Today’s full moon puts you directly in the spotlight. As a result, you’ll be able to maximize the lunar energy in your favor.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) • • A dispute suddenly could break out. Someone might misread your attitude. Make a point to clarify your thoughts.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) • • • You know when you overspend. You might feel as if you have made a commitment and have little to no choice but to follow through.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) • • • You might feel as if you must act a certain way, and you could be irritated to be in that position right now. Do not fight the inevitable.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) • • • • Your sense of what to do might involve testing out your ideas on someone who is more knowledgeable than you on the topic.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) • • • • Relate to a partner or key associate directly in order to avoid a volatile situation. A friend still might be less than agreeable because of a sudden change of plans.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) • • • • Avoid a potentially touchy situation by deferring to others. Consider what is more important: keeping the peace or being right.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) • • • Someone could take advantage of your caring nature. You might feel hurt, or perhaps you’ll just feel sorry for this person.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) • • • You might feel pulled in two different directions. Your friends really enjoy having you around, yet a child or loved one could express some neediness.
