Horoscopes

By Jacqueline Bigar

For Friday, April 5, 2002. Those with birthdays today: You have unusual energy this year, especially when it comes to making and spending money. In fact, you might be an unstoppable force, which is unusual, as you aren’t really materialistic. If you are single, you will meet people with ease this year. Don’t be so one-tracked as to not notice others’ admiring. If you’re attached, work more often as a team.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult

Aries (March 21-April 19)

  • Clear out work and financial matters quickly. If you can get an early start on your day, all the better. Skip lunch if you can. Tonight: Where the gang is.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

  • Your fiery energy helps you charge through e-mail, research and calls. Your vitality becomes contagious to those around you. Deal with a boss later in the day, certainly in the afternoon. Tonight: Lead others out the door.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

  • Deal with bosses on a one-on-one level. Recognize what is going on behind the scenes with an associate surrounding funds. It might be smart to internalize information before reacting. Tonight: Take in a movie.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

  • Indulge another; allow this person to reveal his or her colors this morning. Sometimes, by standing back, you get a better sense of what you’re dealing with. Schedule a meeting in the near future, if not today. Tonight: With a favorite person.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

  • Follow through on any leftover details involving an important project, especially if you are about to make a presentation. Tonight: Just don’t be alone.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

  • Use your creativity to get through work. Listen to another’s ideas, even if they’re presented in a most radical way. You might want to help this person tone down his or her approach. Tonight: Do something important just for you.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

  • Kick back in the morning, staying calm and accomplishing as much as possible. You might need to close your door in order to complete your “to do” list. Tonight: Let the fun continue.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

  • Listen carefully to those around you. Speak your mind. Another tosses many ideas on your plate. Pick and choose the ones you like. Deal with the basics with someone. Tonight: Head on home.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

  • Financial matters come to the forefront this morning. You might not have as much control as you would like. Expenses go way overboard. Tonight: Friday rituals.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

  • Your smile wins friends and, perhaps, a new admirer. This person could be quite assertive once he or she makes up his or her mind. Put at least a temporary halt to this flirtation. Tonight: Balance your checkbook first.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

  • This morning another could upset you with his or her mood. Swallow the problem, looking to better communication and a little time. Tonight: Finally, the world is your oyster.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

  • A key meeting sets new goals and ideas. Don’t wait on the back burner; express your ideas, even if they aren’t those of the majority. Tonight: Vanish. You need some down time.
