You make waves wherever you go, yet you yearn for a lower profile. Others seem to act in a most unpredictable manner, but who chose them to be in your life? Note that on some level you like the excitement. If you are single, Cupid’s arrow could hit hard in 2008. If you are attached, relish the heat that evolves between you in 2008. GEMINI can push you hard.

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 might attempt to take a more even course but hit an obstacle here and there. Keep communication flowing, even if in a spirited moment you want to cut someone off. Tonight: Catch up on a friend’s weekend.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Expenses go way overboard, and you do make a difference. Perhaps that difference is made by you saying no to yourself or to someone else. Tonight: Gather your bills.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Your personality reflects a more powerful attitude and/or word choice. Don’t wonder why you are getting a strong reaction from others. Tonight: Put on a favorite piece of music.

Take your time and make it OK not to answer someone right away. Be polite, but don’t allow yourself to be cornered. When push comes to shove, don’t get caught in the middle. Tonight: Do for yourself uniquely.

You might want what you want, but an associate might have a different opinion or want something else. The issue will be how to make you both happy. Tonight: Where the groups are.

Take charge and handle a personal matter directly and concisely. If you direct this attitude to the other areas of your life, you could be ear-to-ear smiles. Tonight: Touch base with an older relative or friend.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Take the high road. You might find others backpedaling, as they were counting on triggering you in on a problem or hassle. Tonight: Play a game.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Others clearly think they know more than you. Rather than have an argument, define their position with them, and let them do their thing. Tonight: An important talk.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Others prove to be challenging, but it’s a situation that you can handle. Invigorate your life with more information and alternatives. Tonight: Allow someone else to express his or her opinion (you might not have a choice anyway).

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Dig into work or errands. Your stamina and efficiency will be tested. If you discover that someone approaches a situation differently from you, learn why before nixing it. Tonight: Relieve stress through physical activity.

You might need to pull in rather than act. Many people could be pushing for what they want without thinking about what is best for you. Tonight: Hang close to home.
