Horoscopes

For Tuesday, Jan. 2

Those with birthdays today: Looking at life as black and white might not be effective. Learn to see shades of gray. Others seek you out. Take care of yourself first. Your creativity flourishes, especially when facing problems. Friendships and goals are highlighted. Keep that focus. If you are single, you could meet someone quite controlling or difficult. Perhaps you would like to bypass this relationship. A great relationship is in the offing, but maybe not right now. If you are attached, both of you need an equal say, and you might need to learn to see your sweetie in a new light. Don’t judge; rather, respect your differences. CANCER can challenge the living daylights out of you.

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)

How can one day be so different from another? Remember, you are coming off quite a cycle of socializing. Personal and domestic matters have been waiting for your attention. Tonight: At home.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Though you often restrain yourself, today you are likely to say exactly what is on your mind. It might be appropriate. Just don’t be surprised at others’ reactions. Tonight: Catch up on a friend’s weekend.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Stop, or at least slow down. Not every day can be a party, wish as you might. Deal with some basics. Look at bills and demands. Responsibilities must be handled. Tonight: Get your bills together.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Returning to a normal pace might be a relief. The Moon in your sign recharges your batteries. Others notice that you have a radiance and competent air about you. Tonight: It’s your call.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

No question about it – you love the limelight. What might be instrumental to your success is understanding when to bow out and say “enough.” Tonight: Vanish.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Focus on friends and associates. You might need to get a project moving and need help doing it. Though you might feel distracted, you can zero in on what is necessary. Tonight: Visit and listen to everyone’s news.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

You might have little choice but to accept responsibility, as it is dropped on your shoulders. Compensate by changing your schedule. Clearly, you cannot be everywhere at once. Tonight: A must appearance.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Your ability to see past the obvious could be more important than you realize. Money might be involved in a decision or discussion. Find experts. Get feedback. Tonight: Veg out to TV.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

You like to be in control. A partner or associate holds the cards; work with this person. Remember, you are always in control of yourself and cannot control anything else. Tonight: Quality time with a special person.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Know when to pass the ball (like now). You might have excellent instincts, but your timing might be off. Think in terms of a team victory. Tonight: Listen to suggestions. Listen to what someone has to say.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Your ability to focus on what must be done might put off some friends who want attention. On the other hand, you will free yourself up for time to socialize later. Tonight: Let’s start incorporating exercise into your routine!

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

* Your creativity seems to bubble forth no matter what you deal with or whom. Just try to spell out the facts to someone who is less conceptual and perhaps more literal. Tonight: Ever playful.
