Horoscopes

For Wednesday, March 23

Those with birthdays today: Expect the unexpected, and you will be on cruise control this year. You will change your way of thinking because of a willingness to read between the lines. Allow your mind to grow and evolve in a new direction. Sudden insights become commonplace, as your mind reaches past self-imposed restrictions. Take time alone to regroup. Choose your confidants with care. Travel also might open doors. If you are single, you could get a jolt if you take someone at face value. Get to know someone well before deciding that he or she is it. If you are attached, your relationship will return to steamy given enough quality time. SCORPIO always presents a different point of view.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

  • Nothing is written in stone right now. Even your opinions are subject to radical swings, as new information comes in. Concentrate on work or your daily routine. Tonight: Take it easy.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

  • You deal well with the excitement and instability that heads your way. While others could be upset, you seize the moment. Zoom in on what you want. Tonight: Indulge in a special dinner.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

  • Handle a personal or domestic matter that might have your mind working overtime. Clear out the issue and free yourself up for other matters. Someone you look up to becomes flaky. Tonight: Order in.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

  • Say what you think, but be willing to revise your opinion. Information that heads in your direction tosses yet another perspective on a situation. Tonight: Get together with at least one friend.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

  • Deal with finances with care; if you are involved with someone else’s funds, there could be an unexpected twist. The same goes if someone else is handling your money. Use caution. A solid relationship could take an interesting turn. Tonight: Special time with a loved one.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

  • * Others demand attention and control. You could become unusually reactive. Try to tame your newfound unpredictability. Avoid turning over the apple cart. Tonight: Where the crowds are.
