Horoscopes

By Jacqueline Bigar ? For Friday, Aug. 23, 2002. Those with birthdays today: Others play a significant role in your decisions this year. You often feel as if you juggle way too many concerns. Decide what you want to handle, and establish boundaries accordingly. If you are single, carefully check out someone you want to be involved with. If you are attached, schedule special time away together.

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)

  • Dig into work. The less you integrate with associates and network, the more you accomplish. Right now you need the sense of being able to plow through your work. List your priorities. Tonight: Relax at home.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

  • Your efforts make a difference, especially during meetings. Though you might have work as a priority, your mind drifts to the weekend. Know what you want here. Tonight: Romp the weekend!

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

  • Take charge at work, if you have any thought of clearing out the day. Your sense of humor marks your interactions. If you can, delegate as much as possible or bring work home. Tonight: A must show.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

  • If you can take today off, do so. You need some time to let your mind drift. Creativity surges when you establish this type of special time for yourself. Kick back and relax. Tonight: Out and about.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

  • Others seek you out. Deal with each person individually. Groups don’t work as well right now. Use your enormous resourcefulness to enhance your position. Tonight: Let another lure you!

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

  • Others might not mean to challenge you. They are only doing their thing! Your personality might awe someone close to you. Know when to lay back and when to take action. Tonight: Where the action is.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

  • Review a personal matter that might be close to your heart. Still, focus on your work, and you’ll accomplish a lot. Take plenty of private time to think through decisions. Tonight: Work late as needed.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

  • Deal with others individually. You find that a financial matter could be resolved quite easily if you just start talking. Sometimes you underestimate yourself. Tonight: Go out and indulge.
