Horoscope
HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Sunday, Jan. 3, 2010: This year, you open a door that allows greater opportunities to come forward. If attached, remember your significant other when choosing your options. If single, you could meet someone who is quite different and exciting. Leo pushes you hard to spend.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) •••• When you start zooming around, remember that not everyone has the same energy that you do. Clearly a friend or loved one might have a conflicting idea, but with the present confusion, you just might not be communicating.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) ••• Invite others over for a cozy get-together, but limit the number. Whether playing cards or catching up on news, it makes no difference. You simply enjoy being with this person.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) ••••• Your ability to tell it like it is or to get past a hassle emerges. You could come off as cranky if you’re not careful. Understand where someone is coming from by detaching from your issues.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) ••• You still might be looking at the physical or material implications of an issue rather than the big picture. Your finances continue to be a concern to many of you.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) ••••• You can meet a challenge without great effort, be it playing racquetball or quashing a budding fight about nothing. You discover that there is a silver lining behind every hassle as you quickly see the positives.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) ••• Honor a need for extra R and R. You could be exhausted by recent events and what is going on. Listen to your inner feelings. If you are suppressing annoyance or anger, it could be taking an additional toll on you.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) •••• Zero in on what you want. A male friend could be egging you on, whether you like it or not. Don’t let a situation become a problem.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) •••• You might want to see a situation in a different light. Yet another person who has a tendency to be extremely authoritative could trigger you beyond belief.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) •••• If you have plans to take off, get an early start. A family situation could be a source of tension. Getting a little distance between you and the issue could help you see both sides.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) •••• A partner presents a completely different opinion. Listen to news with an open mind. You could be surprised. Remain light and easy when dealing with a key partner.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) •••• Let others make the first move. Someone could be demanding or combative. You could be overwhelmed by what is going on, and it might be easier to pick and choose your company and what you want to do.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) ••• Have you been putting off an errand or getting into a project? Use the moment to complete some of these trailing obligations.
