Horoscopes

For Wednesday, Oct. 12

Those with birthdays today: You are unusually creative. Use your dynamic imagination to improve the quality of your life, work and relationships. Others adore your ingenuity and often seek you out. A child could play a big role in your year as well as in an artistic creation. Friends could be skeptical or play devil’s advocate. Make that OK with you. Be supportive to someone who might be depressed this year. If you are single, you certainly will have the opportunity to change that status. Ah, romance. If you are attached, plan a second honeymoon, or a first one! Know that your imagination could lead you down some strange paths. AQUARIUS knows how to make you smile.

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)

Avoid a negative person. Although, you might need to be more realistic, especially about a loved one or a creative project. As a result of seeing more clearly, you will be able to enjoy greater success. Tonight: Where the crowds are.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

You might get some unusual flak from a boss or authority figure. Visualize more of what you want through a discussion. The person you are dealing with has great ideas. Work with him or her. Tonight: Out late.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

You might want to detach rather than become glum. You will find that you can visualize and create a solution to a hassle. Be spontaneous too. Tonight: Talk to a person you consider a resource.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

You might need to defer to someone else, as you see a situation bleakly. Others seem to be able to work through negativity and come up with grounded solutions. A relationship deepens. You might think others are in dreamland. Tonight: Togetherness.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

You might be a bit more serious than usual. Curb negativity, if possible. Defer to others who might have a different perspective. Handle your funds carefully. Tonight: Accept an invitation.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Your ability to get work done and focus on key issues might be instrumental in getting past a bad mood or depression. Others respond to your innovative approach at work. Tonight: Off to get some exercise.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Your libido energies are on high. If you are artistic, you might choose to funnel this energy into a project. Others decide to add more romance to their lives. Use this moment well. Tonight: Let your imagination choose.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Family and home take a greater priority than usual. You have a strong sixth sense. Use this ability to deal with others. You might not be seeing a situation clearly – and you might not want to, either. Tonight: At home.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Your ability to visualize, speak and infuse others with enthusiasm is contagious. Use your ability to intuit others’ needs. A meeting could become a brainstorming session. Let it happen. Tonight: With favorite people.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Though you might think you have a firm handle on a money matter, you don’t. A fact or perspective is missing. Be the wise Goat and take your time with a decision. Tonight: A promised visit.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

You want to break away from the here and now. Nothing bores the Water Bearer more than routine. Experiment with different ideas. Tonight: As you wish. Others go along.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

* Pull back and do some heavy thinking. A discussion with a close friend or loved one provides much insight. Know when to hush up and not tell others what is happening. Tonight: Vanish.
