Horoscopes

For Friday, July 16, 2004. Those with birthdays today: You have a lot going for you this year. Avoid being too serious, because others will react to an overly heavy or distant attitude. Deal with finances with maturity, or you could spend everything you make, and more. If you are single, though highly attractive, you could tumble into love with someone who might not be emotionally available. Check out each person you are interested in with care, rather than get hurt. If you are attached, your relationship will benefit from frequent getaways together. You communicate well. Use those skills.

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)

  • Watch your step and let others run with the ball. You could be overly serious, but a call or lunch could perk you up. Tonight: A friend delights you.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

  • Return calls. A decision you make could be very serious. You might want to weigh the pros and cons during the next few days. It might be affecting your personal life. Tonight: Out and about.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

  • Finances prove demanding, and you just might need to say “no” to plans or an expenditure. Take an overview and think carefully about what would be best to do. Tonight: Keep costs down.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

  • You might be very stern in a conversation or with a friend. Do you really believe this behavior serves you or helps the situation? A partner or associate could be off about finances. Tonight: Your wish is another’s command!

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

  • Know when to say “no,” and you will gain. Others want to pull you into a project, but that might not work for you. Be willing to support yourself and say “no,” if need be. Tonight: Vanish home.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

  • Where your friends and the crowds are is where you are most comfortable. Friendship plays a role in a decision. Still, be careful with a money matter, even if you feel it is a good bet. Tonight: Where the gang is.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

You might be on top of the world as you command your ship. Information or research helps you hit a home run. Tonight: Work as late as possible.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

  • Work with one person at a time. You will get better results than you ever dreamed of. You could find one associate to be a bit difficult. Tonight: Dinner for two.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

  • Emphasize work, even if you feel like daydreaming or doing something totally different. Tonight: Relax in your favorite chair.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)
