Horoscopes

For Friday, May 23, 2003. Those with birthdays today: You land on your feet this year no matter what goes down, where or when. You have the unusual gift of choosing the right words. That trait could take you down a new path or help you out of messes. You take the lead because of your strong speaking skills. If single, you are likely to opt to change your status because of someone you have met or will meet shortly. If attached, the two of you will spend many joyous hours together. Pisces stars in your life.

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)

  • Though you could be quite comfortable with an upbeat and forthright manner, right now you might be wise to assume a lower profile. Share more of your ideas about finances. Tonight: Take your time.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

  • Keep your goals in mind, and you’ll happily head in a new direction. Tonight: Start the weekend with your friends.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

  • Your perspective changes with your willingness to share. Tonight: A must appearance.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

  • Somehow, you have a lot to take in, whether you want to or not. Laughter and a positive point of view will take you far. Extremes mark conversations, actions and even thoughts. Tonight: Try something very different.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

  • Don’t push your luck. Someone close shares strong feelings. You might need to rethink your decisions right now. A lot goes on quite quickly. You learn that you don’t have as much control as you might wish for. Tonight: Go along with a loved one’s fantasy.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

  • You might not be sure what works with others. Let others express their needs. Ask questions that encourage this type of dialogue. Tonight: Say “yes” to a request.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

  • Ask more often for what you feel is necessary. Your friends mean a lot to you, especially right now. You’ll head in a new direction if you feel less of a need to push. A suggestion proves to be valid. Tonight: Togetherness.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

  • You could be a bit surprised by an associate’s naughtiness. Help this person direct his or her energy in a better way. Together you might be unstoppable. Tonight: Express your playfulness.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

  • Go within to find the right answers. A family member has many suggestions; so does a co-worker. Specialize in listening rather than pushing to have something your way. Tonight: How about cozy?

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

  • Think through an answer rather than blurting out the first thing that comes to your mind. Everyone will be happier as a result. A partner knows how to push the right buttons to trigger you. Tonight: Out.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

  • You might get tired of hearing about the almighty dollar, but it seems as if someone close insists on harping on finances. Do your best as others shoot ideas across your bow. Tonight: Invite some pals out with you.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

  • You’re full of play and liveliness; others cannot help but respond. If you can split from work early, do so. Tonight: Hop into the weekend.
