For Wednesday, Jan. 9:

You make a difference this year. You have an impact on many people. Picking and choosing the right situations to demonstrate this magnetism might involve reflection and hard thought. If you are single and if you open up, you could be amazed by what goes down, or rather the people who might enter your life. If you are attached, you could be thrilled by what life offers you as a couple. AQUARIUS understands your assets and talents, perhaps better than you.

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 know more than you think you do about a situation; however, the confusion that surrounds this issue could force you to rethink. Tonight: Think positively.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

¢¢¢ You might not want to think in the same way or handle a situation in the manner that you have been. Tonight: A must appearance.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

¢¢¢¢¢ Clearly you don’t see eye to eye with others. Observe and understand what makes them tick. Walk in their footsteps. Imagine what it would be like to be them. Tonight: Keep on smiling.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

¢¢¢¢ Allow greater give and take. As a result, you will see life with renewed interest. Investigate what needs to happen with an eye to positive change. Tonight: Someone wants to be heard.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

¢¢¢¢¢ You might want to rethink an alliance. If you do something in a very different manner, you might find the other person difficult. Step back from the situation and enjoy possibilities. You see life with renewed hope and interest. Tonight: All smiles.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

¢¢¢ Intention is half the game. If you hit a problem – especially one that impacts your daily life – you might want to step back some. Tonight: Make it early.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

¢¢¢¢ Creativity flows, even with an element of confusion or a change of mind. Use your imagination, and you’ll come up with answers. Tonight: Time for a well-earned midweek break.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

¢¢¢ Whatever you say gets turned around. Try as you might, the right words might not be forthcoming. Tonight: In the whirlwind of life.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

¢¢¢¢¢ You might want to rethink a personal matter more carefully. Your ability to move through hassles will make a substantial difference. Tonight: Ever playful.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

¢¢¢ What starts out as a confusing situation could reverse itself as quickly as it happens – if you stay mellow. Tonight: Your treat.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

¢¢¢¢¢ Your energy might be admirable, but think before you launch into action. You might not be getting the whole or complete message. Tonight: Your decision to make.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

¢¢¢¢ You might feel like you can’t hold yourself back any longer. Any action you take could backfire. Tonight: Go in your own direction.
