HOROSCOPE

Aries (March 21-April 19) ••• – Pressure builds, even if you just want to hide out. Others have expectations that you would prefer not to fill — so don’t! A must visit to a relative or extra time at work could be all you want to do. Say just that.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) ••••• – Discussions take you into another realm. Perhaps, if you give up your overly serious manner, you will flourish. Sometimes others don’t understand why you are so serious. Reach out for others. You will lighten up soon enough.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) •••• – You might feel a bit tight financially. Being with someone you enjoy and care about doesn’t take the National Reserve to finance. Make a picnic and take a walk in the country. Find a favorite spot to relax.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) •••• – Don’t allow your seriousness to stop you from enjoying your life. Others seek you out, wanting your company. Come on — it’s the weekend. Let go of worry, and greet those who care about you. You might be surprised by how renewed you are.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) •••• – How you handle a friend or loved one could change substantially. Let go of worry and greet friendliness with a more open attitude. You don’t always need to be the center of attention; you can do something nurturing and caring for someone else.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) ••••• – Letting go could be a bit more difficult, as a friend or key person could be challenging you left and right. Find the apple of your eye, who might be a child. Enjoy and play away. Seriousness might not have a place here.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) ••• – You could be pushed by a family member who sometimes handles you as if he or she is superior. Follow through on what you see as important. Relax at home; be with the ones you love. Don’t make anything difficult.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) •••• – Reach out for a friend at a distance, but don’t take his or her unavailability personally. What is happening is that he or she needs to work through a problem. Hang with your friends; visit with your neighbors.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) •••• – A friend or loved one might feel financially cramped. How much do you want to treat, pitch in or loan. Be honest with yourself. Don’t expect repayment immediately, if ever. You’re doing what you’re doing for yourself.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) ••••• – You’re up for nearly anything, but others could rain on your parade. Please don’t let this happen. Remember, it is your weekend, too. Find someone who wants to enjoy him- or herself as much as you do.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ••• – Take your time deciding on your plans, especially if you feel sick or tired. You might need some time to recharge your batteries. You cannot always be on high or ready to play. Give yourself what you need first

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) •••• – Where your friends are is where you want to be. Follow through on what is happening. Get into something fun and loosen up. Don’t worry about someone who might be dragging you down. Let go of romantic ideals.
