Horoscope

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Thursday, Nov. 3, 2011: Create a very special spot in your immediate circle or family. Note a tug of war between public and personal commitments. If single, you might yearn to settle down. You will meet some great people. If attached, the two of you need to share more of your daily life with each other. Aquarius can be challenging. A baby born today has a sun in Scorpio and a moon in Pisces.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) • • • • You might decide to pursue an unexpected course or direction. Know when to say you have had enough. The best place to make a decision from is detachment.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) • • • Step on stage, understanding others’ expectations. Your precision draws a strong reaction. Clearly this person doesn’t agree with you. Is it important that he or she does?

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) • • • You could be in a substantially different position from in the recent past. Think positively about what you need to do in order to push an idea through.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) • • • • Let others make the first gesture. They will have a strong idea of what they want, and you can negotiate accordingly.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) • • • • You could come off a bit more aggressive or assertive than you realize. Others might back away, as they don’t want to get into a tiff.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) • • • Focus on what must be done, not what you want to do. You could be so overwhelmed by another person’s demanding nature that you need to back off.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) • • • • You might be shocked or taken aback by what is happening behind the scenes. Your vision of what might work could be very different from a friend’s or a key associate’s.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) • • • • Revisit various decisions. You might not be sure what is best to do within your immediate circle. Be clear in a discussion about what is happening on a personal level.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) • • • • • You zero in on a conversation, knowing what your priorities are and which way to head. Though you are not always in control, you see the way.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) • • • You are a sign that is known to be fiscally sound, but you could go rogue when others least expect that type of response.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) • • • • The unexpected plays a key role within your natural framework. You see a new beginning, though the path might be a surprise.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) • • • Knowing when to pull back and what to do might not link up immediately. There is reason to believe that one will cause the other to come forward.
