Happy birthday for Saturday, Feb. 9, 2008:

This year, when you attempt to move a situation forward, you'll experience a total backfire. Understand and question your expectations, as they could be a source of problems and prevent you from accepting loved ones and friends. You pull the wild card financially, never knowing what might hit next. Having a reserve is smart and possibly necessary. Know, on the other hand, that you could hit the lottery. If you are single, someone who is not what he or she says or seems could saunter into your life. Use care with new people. If you are attached, schedule several romantic getaways together. Work on cementing your bond. Pisces could cost you money, without even meaning to.

Aries (March 21-April 19) “““ Your efforts seem to get stalemated no matter how well thought out they are. Refuse to get upset. Go off and do something you enjoy to the max. Check in with an older relative.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) ““““ The best intentions could fall to the wayside. A friend or loved one might want to treat you to a very special happening. Don’t allow frustration to mount.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) “““ Others have “great expectations,” which you might fear you cannot meet. Let go and relax. Travel, long-distance communication and an unexpected sharing play roles in what is going on.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) ““““ Reach out to others, knowing what you want. You might be instrumental in melting down someone’s cold exterior. Still, you will need a lot of patience. Watch how another person expresses his or her feelings.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) “““ Predictability is not a commodity that you will easily come by right now. Know that the only stability that exists is perpetual change. Be more forthright about your feelings with a loved one, especially if this person is a roommate.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) “““ You could be irritated by what is happening with a friend or loved one. Remember, each person chooses his or her own fate, and this person could change what is going on. Step away, though remain nurturing.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) ““““ Easy does it. You might feel as if you have pushed and pushed. Exhaustion earmarks your decisions and reactions. Slow down and start taking better care of yourself.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ““““ Listen to feedback. Use your imagination, perhaps to make logic of what does not make sense. Your creativity emerges when dealing with others, but also even when relaxing, like just seeing a movie. Enjoy.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) “““ Clearly you cannot change others, but you can adapt and change your mood and perspective. How you deal with someone could change considerably with a touch more insight and detachment.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) “““““ You have the right words and mannerisms to soothe others’ frayed nerves. Your popularity could explode as a result. If you think a problem needs to be dealt with directly, do just that

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) “““ Sometimes you don’t have the control you desire. You might be pressured beyond what you can tolerate. If you are pushed, you will come up with a great idea to make peace or work through an issue.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) ““““ Others look to you, and indeed a friend might be gooey-eyed when thinking of or speaking to you. Use care, knowing what you want from this person. You don’t want to hurt him or her either.
