Horoscopes

For Friday, Jan. 31, 2003. Those with birthdays today: You have the drive and follow-through to make what you want happen this year. Network and expand your immediate circle of friends and associates. If you are single, you will meet people easily, and actually could have an opportunity to change your solo status. Allow this happiness in your life. If you’re attached, check in with each other frequently, making sure you have similar goals. Aquarius understands you.

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)

  • Get off your duff and take action. How you lead and how you follow through attracts many different associates. Use your strong sense of direction right now, and you will greet success. Tonight: Where your friends are.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

  • Support an associate’s strong action, which could make a considerable difference in the outcome of a situation. You’re in a unique position to weigh the pros and cons. Tonight: A must appearance.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

  • Others continue to run with the ball. If you interfere, you could be surprised by what happens — i.e., don’t run interference. Let the chips fall where they may. Tonight: Do something very different.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

  • You might want to ask for more information. You might feel a lot better if you ask for the help you need. Tonight: One-on-one relating.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

  • Others touch base, though you clearly see that you have little control over what goes on. Think twice about a loved one’s or child’s offer. Don’t just discard his or her suggestion. Tonight: Where the action is.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

  • Success will greet you this week. You drive a hard bargain. You might want to be a bit reclusive, as you need to get work done. Tonight: Ask for a back rub.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

  • You can no longer put someone on a back burner. Initiate a discussion. Listen and share, but above all, look for a point or place where others, as well as yourself, can be comfortable. Tonight: Kick up your heels.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

  • Deal head-on with a money matter that impacts your security. You might not be comfortable with what is happening with a child or loved one who is close to you. Tonight: Close to home.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

  • You say what you feel and let others clearly know that you mean business. Your ability to express yourself comes across. Understand why you’re so triggered. Tonight: Hanging out with your friends.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

  • Deal with finances as directly as you can. Though you might not be comfortable with someone’s perception, curb a tendency to keep your feelings inside. Tonight: Your treat.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

  • A friend might like contradicting you, but, ultimately, you force the issue. You can have what you want. Please don’t settle right now. Tonight: Smile and draw in what you want.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

  • Knowing when to lay back could be key to your success. Somehow you discover the need to understand a boss and his or her irritation. Tonight: Vanish.
