Jacqueline Bigar King Features

Aries (March 21-April 19) ■■■ – Avoid a negative person. Although, you might need to be more realistic, especially about a loved one or a creative project. As a result of seeing more clearly, you will be able to enjoy greater success. Focus on meetings; listen to others’ ideas.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) ■■■■ – You might get some unusual flak from a boss or authority figure. Visualize more of what you want through a discussion. The person you are dealing with has great ideas. Work with him or her.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) ■■■■■ – You might want to detach rather than become glum. You will find that you can visualize and create a solution to a hassle. Use your mental processes to the max. Be spontaneous too.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) ■■■ – You might need to defer to someone else, as you see a situation bleakly. Others seem to be able to work through negativity and come up with solutions. A relationship deepens. A mix of cynicism and ingenuity works perfectly.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) ■■■ – You might be a bit more serious than usual. Curb negativity, if possible. Defer to others who might have a different perspective. Discussions open doors for you and others. Handle your funds carefully.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) ■■■ – Your ability to get work done and focus on key issues might be instrumental in getting past a bad mood or depression. Others respond to your innovative approach at work. You view finances differently from many.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) ■■■■■ – Your libido energies are on high. If you are artistic, you might choose to funnel this energy into a project. Others decide to add more romance to their lives. Use this moment well. You are lucky.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ■■■ – Family and home take a greater priority than usual. You have a strong sixth sense. Use this ability to deal with others. You might not be seeing a situation clearly – and you might not want to, either.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) ■■■■■ – Your ability to visualize, speak and infuse others with enthusiasm is contagious. Use your ability to intuit others’ needs. A meeting could become a brainstorming session. Let it happen.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) ■■■ – Though you might think you have a firm handle on a money matter, you don’t. A fact or perspective is missing. Be the wise Goat and take your time with a decision. Meanwhile, others watch your savvy.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ■■■■ – You want to break away from the here and now. Nothing bores the Water Bearer more than routine. Experiment with different ideas. Some might want to sign up for a class. Pursue a dream.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) ■■ – Pull back and do some heavy thinking. A discussion with a close friend or loved one provides much insight. Know when to hush up and not tell others what is happening. Recognize that you might be overtired.
