For Saturday, July 14

Those with birthdays today: This year you are empowered and extremely creative. You will be difficult to stop. Often, because of the energy and focus you expend, you will not be able to see the other side of a problem or story. You need to be open to different points of view and welcome differences of opinion. If you are single, you have way too much charisma to stay that way, unless you want to, and even then it could be hard. A special relationship enters your life in 2008. If you are attached, you need to guard against becoming too me-oriented. Encountering another CANCER can be like hitting a brick wall.

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)

¢¢¢¢ Focus on your domestic life and family. You might not always achieve the expected results. The unexpected has appeal, as you discover. A goal revolving around your home or family can happen. Tonight: Nap and then decide.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

¢¢¢¢¢ Your strong personality triggers many different reactions. On the other hand, you too discover an odd event or surprising happening. Hang in there. Tonight: Out with friends and/or a loved one.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

¢¢¢ You might not want to go out. If you need to play the recluse, make that OK. Answers might not come easily, but suddenly. A change in your image becomes likely. Tonight: The later it gets, the better it is.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

¢¢¢¢ Your ability to see unusual facets of a situation draws many people to you. If you are having a problem, ask for help. Once you decide to do something, it is as good as done. Tonight: You follow the path to overindulgence.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

¢¢¢ Take your time with different errands and scheduling a conversation or get-together. Someone in your immediate environment could easily surprise you. Tonight: You get happier and happier.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

¢¢¢¢¢ Use the early part of the day for any matter that you deem important. Understand that others don’t have to agree with you. The unexpected can be upsetting or, if you choose, interesting. Tonight: Early to bed.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

¢¢¢¢ Others gravitate to you for solutions and answers. Still, someone you care about deeply could be creating uproar of some nature. Focus your energy on areas where you can make a difference. Tonight: Live it up!

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

¢¢¢¢¢ The excitement of a child or new friend infuses into your life. Rather than judge, follow your sixth sense. Your intuition is right-on. Flow with change rather than fight the trend. Tonight: Talk “trip.” Talk “vacation.”

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

¢¢¢ A swing of sentiment or a different approach might cause you to rethink your plans. You might not always agree with a family member. Stay centered. Tonight: Try a new type of cuisine or happening.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

¢¢¢¢¢ You might want to deal with a situation differently. The unexpected forces you to adapt and eye the big picture. Don’t back off from the obvious. Tonight: Out and about, but save some time for a special person.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

¢¢¢¢¢ You might want to understand what someone is doing. Your nerves might be more fried than you realize. If you find yourself spending a lot of money, look within. Tonight: Relax at home. The tempo could quicken.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

¢¢¢¢¢ Dig into your imagination, and not only you, but also others will have a grand old time. A resolution you make about a child or loved one could go more easily than you think. Tonight: Fun and games until you are too tired to move!
