Horoscopes

For Tuesday, Feb. 22.

Those with birthdays today: Express your unusual clarity. Learn effective ways of communicating your sometimes far-out ideas. Don’t allow others to feel as if you are talking down to them. Avoid railroading your friends and loved ones. You don’t have all the answers. Your ability to work with others could make or break your year. If you are single, you will flourish in a relationship if you have mutuality. No one can always be in the power seat — share. Attached Pisces: Give up your need to monopolize situations, and your relationship will flourish. Leo pushes you.
