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 great idea could jolt you out of bed. Reception to your ideas could be better later, though you might try out this concept on one person whom you trust. Tonight: Vanish while you can.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

••••• Knowing what you want is the first step in getting it, should this desire appear. A brainstorming session provides many new paths to the same end result. Tonight: Where people are.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

••• Your inclination to understand might derail certain key leadership traits you have. Tonight: Avoid a disagreement with a family member or a roommate.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

•••• Your smile draws others. You could defuse a volatile situation if you so choose. Still, stay focused and tuned in, as you are accident-prone in some way. Tonight: Listen to a favorite type of music.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

•••• A partner, or associates in general, attempts to make inroads. Possibly, someone feels as if you have closed him or her off. Tonight: Talks over dinner.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

••••• Often it is difficult to understand what motivates others. Know that you are not calling the shots. Tonight: Listen to the other perspective.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

••• Keep your eye on the big picture and what you want to accomplish. Could you be just plain exhausted or too tired to deal with a situation? Tonight: Try a new form of exercise.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

••••• Your creativity emerges when you are open to new ideas. A friend or associate could come barreling in with ideas that might be overwhelming. Tonight: Time to let your hair down.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

••• Don’t venture out too far. You discover that many people are in what one might call “a sour mood.” Tonight: Order in.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

••••• Your ideas, words and even calls could be met with strange reactions. It is as if people out there are itching for a fight or a discussion. Tonight: Swap war stories with friends.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

••• Sometimes others simply don’t want to hear an alternate point of view. Work as much on your own as possible in order to avoid an unnecessary conflict. Tonight: Buy a treat on the way home.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

••••• Clearly, you know what you are doing, but one might be substantially less sure about those in your immediate environment. Tonight: Only what you want.
