Horoscopes

For Thursday, Feb. 24, 2005:

Those with birthdays today: Others often react to you, though you might not intentionally trigger them. You are rapidly changing and might not be aware of the impact of the new you. Much of the uproar that surrounds you this year reflects a greater need to be sensitive to others. Charge your life with greater sensitivity and caring. If you are single, a ticker tape of suitors will cross your path. Remember, you only need one person to fall in love with. Be discriminating. If you are attached, share more of yourself. At the same time, remember to allow your sweetie to have greater say in matters that impact your life. VIRGO has similar issues to yours.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

  • Concentrate on a project, but don’t be surprised if by midday everyone seeks you out for help. Be flattered rather than aggravated. Tonight: Count on being up late.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

  • You might be re-evaluating a key bond, friendship or relationship. Try not to react but rather to give a response when you have to. Stop blaming others. Tonight: Confirm plans, as there could be a lot of confusion.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

  • Hang close to home or try to stay out of others’ way. Listen to a partner’s suggestion, as you could benefit financially. You end the day out of sorts and upset. You simply need to relax more and not take situations so seriously. Tonight: Veg at home.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
