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)

If you can avoid dealing with money matters, do so. Many people, including yourself, could be cranky. Pull back and maybe take a nap. Be low-key. Tonight: Say thank you or write thank-you notes.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

You could easily find yourself in a rage, feeling like you have had enough. Though you love your family, you could be tired of the complaining or your role. Hence, let others do everything for a change. Tonight: Accept an invitation.

You might feel a bit down or tired after all the festivities. Others will work or run some errands. Don’t let a disagreeable person get to you. Tonight: Make it an early bedtime.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Laugh and don’t worry about the practical details of life. You probably enjoy yourself more than many. Perhaps get on your hands and knees and share a new toy with a child. Tonight: In a mistletoe mood.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Though you could be tired, you still might enjoy a family member to no end. You might not have to participate, just be there. Others could definitely be out of sorts. Steer clear if you can. Tonight: Your home is your castle.

People call from out of nowhere. Perhaps you have to travel or someone is coming back into town. You can muster up the energy to handle whatever you need to. Tonight: Get into the moment.

You might find an associate, friend or loved one disruptive. You don’t see eye to eye with this person. Worry less. You might want to buy yourself that one item you didn’t get. Tonight: Make it easy.

How you view someone could change radically. You have always respected this person, but you find his or her attitude and cantankerous nature hard to deal with. You’re not the only one! Tonight: Indulge.

You might want some space or time alone. Make this request or plan your day accordingly. You still have some must-do errands or a project that needs completing. Let yourself relax. Tonight: Make it your night.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Catch up with friends and share recent news. You might feel as if someone is unusually difficult or hard to deal with. Perhaps he or she is exhausted from all the excitement. Tonight: Where you are happy.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Others could be cold and austere. Don’t take their attitudes personally. Why not head out the door and either get some extra work done or visit with an older friend or loved one? Tonight: Out as late as you want.

Detach from your immediate surroundings. You will be a lot happier as a result. Others can be difficult. You also could lose patience, as you have been very nurturing and are tired. Tonight: Write thank-you notes.
