For Thursday, April 21

Those with birthdays today: How you say what you think could have an impact on what happens. You will pull back and learn different ways of thinking and handling situations. Learn to deal with individuals rather than groups. You discover that your creativity flourishes when you hit obstacles. Your work situation will flourish if you are willing to put in the hours and effort necessary. Watch your weight. Exercise and become health conscious. If you are single, you will meet someone very special next fall. Don't declare that this person is it before you really get to know him or her. If you are attached, avoid disagreements about money. Separate your accounts, if need be. LIBRA demands high performance.

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 want to evaluate more carefully a situation that impacts your life. More information helps you update procedures as well as your point of view. Open up to new possibilities. Tonight: Sort through answers.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

• *** Use your imagination to the utmost. You find that a partner might have difficulty accepting your very different kind of thinking. Don't try to coax him or her; rather, honor this person's ideas. Tonight: Work as late as you need to.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

• ** Others can be downright difficult. Laughter takes you to a new level of understanding with key associates. Add that creative touch. Tonight: Start thinking about the weekend.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

• *** Speak to others and gain a deeper understanding. Though you need to revise your thinking about your daily life, you will open up to new possibilities. Tonight: Your home is your castle. You know that.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

• *** Deal with finances directly and don't push your limits. Any risk at all could be disastrous. Play the conservative, and you will be much happier. Tonight: Out and about.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

• *** You spin into the day a power to be dealt with. Listen to someone you care about, but don't necessarily take everything he or she says personally. Think before you leap. Tonight: Your treat.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

• ** Take your time interpreting what is happening with a friendship. You could be overly sensitive. Given time, you could work out the problem and feel better. Tonight: As you like.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

• *** You easily might take a financial risk with someone you care about. Review a situation carefully before you make a commitment of any kind. Take up the role of observer. Tonight: Get some extra R and R.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

• *** Complete your dealings with a parent or someone you need to deal with. Pressure builds because of your own unwillingness to flex and adapt. Tonight: Where the action is.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

• *** Reach out for more information, especially if you are uncomfortable with a situation as it is. Once you verify news and information, you can take a stand. Tonight: A must appearance.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

• *** You might not need to deal with someone directly in order to salvage your plans. Relate to key people on an individual level. Take the high road. Tonight: Where you can listen to music.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

• *** Others have far more control than you. Why not let them do what they want? You cannot change anyone or anything. A partner or someone you look up to could be tough. Tonight: Be part of the team.
