Horoscopes

For Monday, Nov. 18, 2002. Those with birthdays today: Your ability to zero in on the basics might be very helpful this year. You also might not always understand everything others tell you. Admirers from the different facets of your life surround you. If single, pick and choose who you want to get to know better. If you are attached, the two of you might often find yourself confused. Taurus plays devil’s advocate.

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)

  • Help others feel that they are part of the decision-making process if you want better end results. Know when to put a halt to spending. Create more togetherness. Tonight: Get into the holiday spirit.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

  • Making your point could be nothing less than challenging, to say the least. Your loose and easy style helps others relax and understand what might be needed. Tonight: Drop in on an older relative.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

  • Reach out for loved ones who want to gain a better perspective. Don’t get stuck in negative thinking. Rather, flow with opportunities. Keep smiling no matter what might be going on. Tonight: Seek out information.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

  • A partner might support you just for form, even if he or she might not grasp the whole story. Understand how much trust this person gives you. Tonight: Where the crowds are.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

  • Others, specifically a key associate, manage to confuse things. Let go of trying to control all the different people in your life. You will be happier, and so will they. Tonight: A must show.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

  • Your emotional makeup gets tested, with confusion coming at you from left and right. You should be able to detach and gain perspective. Tonight: Rent a movie.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

  • Your playfulness takes you in a new direction, but the question remains: Just how far off the beaten path do you want to go? A trusted friend might toss cold water on your wildness. Tonight: Anchor via a friendship.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

  • Others certainly present you with a plethora of opportunities. You also might not be getting the whole story. Be a bit of a cynic, even if you want to relax and be agreeable. Tonight: The party could go to the wee hours.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

  • What you hear might not be what others are saying. Sort through your reality by asking more questions. Some of you might just decide to close your door and get into work. Tonight: Soak away stress in a hot bath.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

  • It might take all your imagination to puncture some sense into another’s wild tale. It might not be deception but a case of an overly active imagination. Tonight: Use care with funds.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

  • How you see a situation might be wishful thinking. Of course, this might be all right if you don’t want anything more in your life. Could you, in some form, be taking away from your opportunities? Be realistic. Tonight: Playtime.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

  • * Express what’s on your mind more often. You might not have the answers but just need feedback. What heads your way could be most special. Tonight: Brainstorm with a buddy.
