Horoscope

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Monday, Jan. 31, 2011: This year, you often feel like someone puts the kibosh on your ideas or plans. Be open to different types of thinking and what different cultures have to offer. If single, you could meet someone who might not be what they seem. If attached, as a couple you will gain from weekends away from responsibilities. You could start acting like young lovers again! Libra seems to be more difficult than in the past.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) • • • • • Take a strong hand in an immediate situation. Perhaps a little less responsibility would make you happier, freeing up time for key priorities.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) • • • • • New information could toss your life into chaos. You also might discover that you are burdened by everything that you have to do at this point.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) • • • • Work closely with a partner in order to get results. Your ability to negotiate comes out. Consider whether this partner’s interests are the same as yours.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) • • • • • Your ability to read key people in your life needs to come forward. You could feel as if someone is dragging you down.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) • • • Maintain a steady pace. You could be a bit out of sorts. You’ll get a lot done, quite quickly, if you focus on work, not people – just for this moment in time!

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) • • • • Remain sensitive to your limits. Are they self-imposed? Are they realistic? If you know the answers to these questions, when a risk moseys along today, you will know which way to go.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) • • • • Your fatigue with recent events breaks through, perhaps coloring your day. You might not know what is workable right now, as you are not firing on all cylinders.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) • • • • • You seem to be at the right place at the right time. Many reasons could force a smile, but recognize that your perspective could be colored by the moment.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) • • • • You might be overwhelmed. Just when you thought someone was coming through, you hit a snafu.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) • • • Pushing someone really doesn’t get the desired results. Someone you need to answer to is very stern and/or direct, creating an unanticipated problem.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) • • • Don’t push beyond your normal level. How you see someone and the choices you make reflect your inner self. At this point, you are changing.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) • • • • • Consider dealing with someone differently than in the past. A partner does not see eye to eye with you and lets you know it in no uncertain terms.
