Horoscopes

For Friday, Oct. 12:

You’ll have a year to remember if you remain somewhat discreet and cautious. Handle your finances with learned precision; money could become a source of chaos. If you are single, you’ll make waves. If you are attached, a more cautious but loving attitude warms your relationship. SCORPIO helps you understand your assets in all contexts of the word.

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)

A partner or an associate wants to assume a stronger role. You might feel that a key concept or idea could work with more definition. Tonight: Let your ideas out.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Some have a way of declaring their role without checking out others’ positions. If you stand on ceremony, you will go nowhere quickly. Tonight: Listen rather than decide.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Stay focused on one item or project at a time. Since much could hit you simultaneously, you feel that you need to make a decision or multitask. You don’t. Tonight: Let your imagination go wild.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

You have a great deal of imagination on your side. Add another’s creative bent, and it might be difficult to predict where you will land. Tonight: Kick up your heels.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

What you thought was clear as a bell turns out not to be. You might need to anchor in financially and not get yourself into trouble. Tonight: Anchor in.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

You might find that communication goes way off as you are trying to come to a better understanding. Work on your listening skills in the next few weeks. Tonight: Keep talking.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Step back, especially financially. You will see that others have a very different style or approach. Tonight: Get some extra R and R.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Surely a strong sense of direction could help you see a situation in a different light. Take in information rather than disseminate it. Check all facts. Tonight: What makes you happy?

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Just as you thought everything was A-OK, you find some strange thoughts and odd reactions heading toward you. You might wonder what you can do to prevent a problem like this in the future. Tonight: Decide to take some personal time.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Though you generally go along with friends, reason might stop you short. Listen to your instincts about new information and perhaps an oddball type of person. Tonight: Find your pals.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Others make requests, which you might easily see as demands. You can handle it all, if you relax. What might be an important action for the next few days is to confirm information. Tonight: A force to be dealt with.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

* You might wonder how you can make a difference. What you discover is that perhaps you cannot. Tonight: Rent a movie, or relax to a fine piece of music.
