For Sunday, Nov. 12, 2006:

This year you make a difference and open up to new possibilities. Your understanding and insight will take you in a new direction if you relax and go with the forces that be. Somehow you get past hassles that really could encumber you. Evaluate your priorities and plug in your energy accordingly.

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)

¢¢¢¢ Your lively ways could inspire many, but not in ways that you always feel comfortable. Pressure builds, and you could lose your temper. Why bother? Look at the positives; don’t wallow in the negatives. Tonight: Enjoy the last few moments of the weekend.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

¢¢¢ Pressure builds, and you seem to go through moods as if you were walking through a revolving door. You probably cannot get enough done fast enough. The problem might be that others don’t fall into place so easily. Tonight: Curl up at home.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

¢¢¢¢¢ You are very playful and full of fun. How you visualize what is happening could change substantially. Though at one moment you could be sunny, the next you might be overwhelmed. Think positively, and you can resolve a problem. Tonight: Out and about.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

¢¢¢ Expenses could go way overboard. You might want to think carefully about what your priorities are. You might want to do something very differently. Curb wild spending. A conservative path is the only path. Tonight: Pay bills.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

¢¢¢¢¢ Your moods change quite quickly. The fact remains that you are totally in control and can handle what is coming down your path. Extremes impact others, whether you want them to or not. Use care. Tonight: Act like the world is your oyster. It is, you know.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

¢¢¢ Taking your time might seem reasonable, and is also the only possible action. Sometimes you might feel as if others push you way too far too fast. Know when to pull away and do your own thing. Listen to your instincts. Tonight: Pull back.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

¢¢¢¢ Though you absolutely think you know what a friend wants, you find out otherwise. Somehow you imagine what you can do and the influence you have. For better or worse, there will be huge swings in others’ reactions. Tonight: Enjoy the moment.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

¢¢¢ You can cause more hassles than anyone might believe. But why do it? Try to conform to a demanding person’s request. You may or may not like what you are hearing or experiencing. Listen to your inner voice. Tonight: A must appearance.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

¢¢¢¢¢ How you visualize what you want might have more to do with what comes down your path than you realize. Let loose and let your imagination call the shots. You might be surprised by what happens. Tonight: Take an overview.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

¢¢¢¢ Knowing when to reverse gears and go another way could be important when dealing with a key person in your life. Re-evaluate a decision much more carefully than before with the person it involves. Tonight: Remember that you are not a power on your own.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

¢¢¢¢ Others clearly run the show, whether you like it or not. You will be able to make a profound difference if you flow with the moment. Not everything is as you would like it to be. Remember, you need to defer. Tonight: Smile away.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

¢¢¢ You alternate between fatigue and get-up-and-go. You might want to do something different, but might not be able to. Somehow you easily get past a problem. Know what you want and where you are going. Tonight: Think “tomorrow.”
