For Saturday, Jan. 5:

The unexpected marks your year. You will learn to deal with many unanticipated happenings. The surprise is that you are more in control than you realize this year. If you are single, the potential suitors seem to increase to such an extent that you might not be sure whom to choose. If you are attached, defer a tad bit more to your sweetie. SAGITTARIUS is fiery and direct.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

¢¢¢¢¢ A partner assumes a more dominant role than in the past. How you see a situation could make a big difference in the outcome. Tonight: Surprises hit left and right.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

¢¢¢¢ Others become insistent about what they want, and they want it now. Your ability to land on your feet will be marked by a change in events. Tonight: Say yes.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

¢¢¢¢¢ You might not believe the information some people are feeding you. You wonder “how come” or “why.” Let your mind open up and get past a problem or mental filter. Tonight: Break barriers.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

¢¢¢¢ You might believe you have solutions, but in reality you could see some swift changes. Keep a tight hand on your finances. Tonight: An emotional risk could be fun.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

¢¢¢ Family and security need to continue to be priorities, even if a partner is flagrantly difficult and testy. How you deal with others could change because of the sudden and perhaps uncomfortable perspective you will gain. Tonight: Mosey on home.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

¢¢¢¢¢ You are full of energy. However, you might not understand the impact of the shockwaves that come from you. Tonight: Claim your power.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

¢¢¢ Hold on tight to your checkbook. The unexpected occurs when you least expect it. You are on top of your game no matter what happens. Tonight: Find your pals.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

¢¢¢ Extremes punctuate your day. You might have difficulty dealing with others. Listen to your sixth sense with a boss. Don’t push this person too hard, too fast. Tonight: A must appearance.
