Horoscopes

For Monday, Jan. 12, 2004:

Seek out and investigate new knowledge, especially if something doesn’t feel right to you. Be realistic about your abilities. Others note a new wisdom in you. Some of you could opt to take classes or learn more through traveling. If you are single, someone quite exotic could drop in your life in the next year. If attached, share a personal growth process. Virgo helps you see the other side.

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)

  • You might need to reorganize a project because of information that comes forward. Though you might grumble, you’re right in your element. You resolve the issue. Tonight: Bring work home.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

  • A partner might disappoint you. You find ways around the issue with your unusual creativity. Detach if you feel upset. You won’t find answers until you calm down. Tonight: Forget it’s Monday.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

  • Build a relationship on a stronger foundation. You might wonder what happened to make an associate react in such a manner. The behavior could have little to do with you. Tonight: Relax at home.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

  • You could be overwhelmed by impending confusion around you. Make it your job to find more effective ways of handling these issues. Your calmness helps. Tonight: Get together with a pal.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

  • Deal with your finances before they deal with you. A risk will backfire right now, whether it involves money or love. Once you see what has happened, you gain insight into what not to do. Tonight: Pay bills.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

  • Your smile is a winner to everyone except a key loved one. You cannot be popular with everyone all of the time. Use your creativity — be it at work or play — and you’ll come out smelling like roses. Tonight: As you like it.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

  • Step back and don’t take anyone or anything personally. Someone who could be very close to you might say something deeply disturbing. You could also be misreading this person. Tonight: Get some extra sleep.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

  • You might need to have a long talk with someone in the know about finances. With this person you can put together a budget that will work. Tonight: You’re happiest with the crowd.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

  • Accept responsibilities with your normal graciousness. Besides, you really do not have a choice. You will be able to resolve what someone else seems stymied by. Tonight: Prepare to work late.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

  • * Get needed information, and calm down yourself, as well as others. Whatever might disturb you can be alleviated with a different perspective. Even your thinking transforms as a result. Tonight: Zero in on a movie.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

  • Financial and emotional gains come by becoming an independent thinker. Though they mean well, your friends could lead you down the wrong path. Tonight: Togetherness works.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

  • Defer to others, especially around a boss or authority figure. Be imaginative when dealing with associates. Good ideas flow in this atmosphere. Tonight: The only answer is “yes.”
