For Tuesday, Jan. 23

Those with birthdays today: This year you are naturally lucky with men and your career. If you are a man, you have an unusual attractiveness and appeal. Use care with communication. Sometimes you try to say one thing, but your statement comes off differently. Work on getting in touch with your inner feelings so they don’t permeate situations. If you are single, friendship will play a big role in your choices. You must have a friendship with a loved one. If you are attached, decide on a mutual goal and make it happen. Don’t let your frustration out on your significant other. ARIES helps you laugh.

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)

¢¢¢¢¢ You have the muscle of the planets behind you. Still, you might have a hurdle or two to clear. Others want and expect a lot. What would suit you? Tonight: Remember, the world is your oyster.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

¢¢¢ Though you might feel as if you can take on the world, don’t try. Reflect, think and plan right now. Action taken later will be successful. You might need to seek out different opinions. Tonight: Do research on the Net or read.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

¢¢¢¢ You might tumble over a bump in the road, but you will get where you are going. Value your friends. Listen to suggestions; you will choose the right one. Tonight: Hang where the crowds are.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

¢¢ Even if you don’t feel like it, you will take your place at the helm of the ship. Make decisions, even if you are uncomfortable. Truthfully, nothing you do would be right right now. Tonight: A must show.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

¢¢¢¢ Your mind will lead you on a new or unseen path. Follow it. A work or daily problem might frustrate you, but there are solutions. It is your job to find them. Others pitch in. Tonight: Break your patterns.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

¢¢¢¢ A partner or associate wants some project or happening to go the way he or she visualizes. You can be as creative as you want when discussing this issue and still get nowhere. Tonight: Gather your tax information.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

¢¢¢¢ Others run with the ball. Pretend you are an umpire – watching, not playing. Resist the judgment call, and everyone will be friendlier. Relax with change. Tonight: Go along for the ride, remembering that you are an observer.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

¢¢¢ Don’t allow flak from different sources to drain your energy. Focus on what you need to do rather than what everyone thinks you should do. The results will be much better. Tonight: Lounge and relax. Let go of tension.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

¢¢¢¢ Your imagination fills in the gaps where others seem dumbfounded. In fact, you enjoy the change and challenges. Let someone know just how much you care. Tonight: Start enjoying.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

¢¢¢ Letting go of self-restraint and letting someone know how angry you are might not be the ticket. Perhaps you need some distance and a stress-buster. Tonight: Chill out.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

¢¢¢¢ Your ways can win over many people. But still be in touch with an underlying frustration or anger. You might self-sabotage otherwise. Remember, anger is hurt gone too far. Tonight: At your favorite haunt with your buddies.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

¢¢ Know when to back down and not get into it with a friend. All you’ll do is add to the irritation. Give the situation time and some detachment, and you might not even mind what is going on. Tonight: Treat yourself. What would you like?
