Horoscope

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Monday, Jan. 10, 2011: This year, you have a unique opportunity to grow and evolve in a new direction. Some of you might get stuck in old and comfortable ways. Be willing to walk into unknown emotional turf. If single, you could discover that you are in a compulsive relationship. Take time getting to know a suitor in order to avoid being locked into a situation. If attached, the two of you will be adding yet another dimension to your relationship. Accept the fact that your significant other will have to jump through hoops as you morph. Aries can be an anchor.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) • • • • You perk up midmorning. Quite possibly, the daredevil characteristic associated with your sign emerges.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) • • • Note what is happening, and do some heavy thinking before you leap into action. Take your time, as the unexpected occurs when you least expect it.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) • • • • • Success greets the Twin when least expected. Honor who you are and willingly move a project in a new direction.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) • • • • Manage a situation and be more clear about your expectations. The choices you make probably should vary with each individual.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) • • • • Don’t hesitate to bring in an expert, but don’t make a decision until more facts come forward. No one can make a sound decision if information is being left out.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) • • • • Work directly with partners. You’ll see a dramatic change as a result, though there could be considerable browbeating from all parties until you find the right path.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) • • • • Deferring doesn’t necessarily label you as being unstable, but rather as knowing when to cut out. This technique also works well with those who absolutely know they are right.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) • • • • Dive into a project as if there is no tomorrow. You could have a creative insight or opportunity that distracts you. You don’t want to say “no.”

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) • • • • • Let go of a need to be logical and efficient. When facing a hassle or initiating a new project, don’t hesitate to opt for a brainstorming session.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) • • • • Be aware of the demands you put on yourself. You push yourself way too hard sometimes. Curb a tendency right now to become defensive or easily hurt.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) • • • • • Make calls and reach out for others. In a meeting, allow others to speak and express their ideas. Be willing to change an issue by transforming your perspective.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) • • • • Stop, and before compromising, look at your assets. Know that you offer much more than money or material security.
