Horoscope

Aries (March 21-April 19) ““““ Use the morning for what you are vested in and feel must happen. Still, there are no guarantees. You find that an extra bit of effort pays off, but perhaps not as quickly as you originally thought.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) ““““ Take a strong stand this morning. Rethink a plan, as you seem to be bound for success in the afternoon. A fact-gathering mission works well.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) ““““ You might not be seeing the whole picture this afternoon. Let a partner, associate or dear friend take charge, just for a while. This person’s input adds strength to your leadership. You’ll gain a renewed sense of direction as a result.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) “““““ A partner is stern or demanding. Let this person have his or her way. Greater understanding occurs in the afternoon, when you are able to imagine what it’s like to walk in this person’s shoes. Express your personality in whatever you do.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) “““““ The smart move is to let others take the lead. You might not have as much control, but you’ll certainly discover the pleasure of freedom. Schedule a late lunch and don’t hesitate to call it a day, if you can.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) “““ Dive into errands, work or a project early this morning. You’ll find that the sooner you get done, the happier you will be. Someone quite close to you might want more time. Network and finish up any social/work-related issues.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) ““““ You might have many ideas. How you funnel your creativity makes a big difference. Why not infuse your life with more fun and vitality? Examine alternatives carefully with an eye to greater success and well-being.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ““““ Don’t minimize the importance of your personal/domestic life on your work and outside relationships. Indulge someone close and you might succeed better everywhere else. Your imagination knows no limits.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) ““““ Return calls and have key discussions in the morning. By the afternoon, a need to close down or do some thinking dominates. Let your imagination emerge, especially when working out a financial or security-related matter.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) ““““ Handle a money question this morning. Focus on what needs to be done in order to make you feel comfortable. You might need to rethink plans because of an opportunity that intrigues you. Understand that you have what it takes.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) “““““ You could be set back by someone’s insights. Don’t make a big deal out of anything; view information while keeping in mind who is delivering these jewels of knowledge. Your instincts will carry you through.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) “““ You might have difficulty getting into the swing of the day. You’ll get a second wind this afternoon. Let no one and nothing stop you. A friend helps point you toward success. Don’t hesitate. You deserve only the best.
