Horoscope

Aries (March 21-April 19) ■■■ – Take care of a gift or special token of affection before lunch. Highlight communication this afternoon. You might think you or someone else is speaking gibberish. Instead of reacting, work for clarity.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) ■■■ – Act in the morning, when you can do no wrong – well, nearly. Your smile is also exactly what you want. You can find out more than you originally anticipated. Confusion surrounds finances. Say no this afternoon.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) ■■ – You might be slow to get your day going. Caring evolves, especially this morning. Listen to someone who cares a lot but might not be able to communicate it. Do a better job of listening, even though you might not agree.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) ■■■■ – This morning you hit the bull’s-eye. Don’t stall, but rather move quickly, as the afternoon will take on quite a different tone. You might be nervous and high-strung. Be ready to pull away and do your own thing.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) ■■■■ – You handle what comes down the path well, especially this afternoon, when others seem to be losing it. Certainly you will be more inventive and creative than many. Laughter marks different situations.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) ■■■ – See what is going on with someone at a distance. Make that call; don’t hesitate any longer. You also might want to seek out some expert feedback. Do just that this morning. By midafternoon, you could feel as if you are in a pressure cooker.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) ■■■■ – Work with a partner. He or she has a lot to share. Have an early lunch or late breakfast together. You are able to see life through another’s eyes. You might be working with mixed messages this afternoon.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ■■■ – Review a situation carefully. Examine what has happened with a friend or loved one. Let go and allow someone else to run the show. Confusion surrounds a money matter. Allow others to express their individuality.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) ■■■■ – You accomplish more than your share of work this morning. At the same time, something you say or a smile makes someone feel very good or on top of his or her game. You encounter a mix-up later on.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) ■■■■ – Your creativity comes forward, and you are able to see life from a more upbeat perspective. You might want to think through a decision carefully, especially if you are worried or uptight.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ■■■■ – You might want to consider a family member or someone you live with this morning. What he or she wants needs to be a higher priority. A meeting in the afternoon won’t go the way you expect.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) ■■■■ – If you can, make phone calls or reach out to someone you care about. Laughter helps you get what you want. Return calls in the morning, when you’ll get more positive feedback.
