For Saturday, Jan. 17:

How you deal with people might change a lot this year. Often you have the unique opportunity of pitching in or being a mentor. People admire your wisdom and ability to lead. If you are single, you’ll meet a lot of people. If you are attached, the two of you work as a team more often and like making public appearances. Libra knows how to push you hard.

••••• Your playful attitude takes others by surprise. You of all signs appreciate a light type of fun. Wave goodbye to heaviness. Tonight: Be spontaneous.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

••••• Your smile continues to make peace when others cannot. A loved one or child helps you relax, and suddenly you give way to your imagination. Tonight: As you like.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

••••• Some people come in close and want to share more. You can handle it if it is only one person, but, oddly enough, it could be several different people. Tonight: Dinner for two.
