Horoscope for Feb. 8

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 be slow to start, but you zoom by midday. Accept a difficult person. He or she is not changing for a while, if ever. Tonight: Where the action is.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) •• Assume a low profile. Fatigue drags you down. A boss could become difficult. You know the words to soothe his or her soul. Tonight: Get as much R and R as possible.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) ••••• Go for what you want. When speaking to a group of people, express your imagination. Fatigue could mark a child or loved one who might be difficult. Tonight: Where the crowds are.

Cancer (June 21-July 22) ••• An active stance surprises no one. A family member doesn’t support your approach or desire to get key matters under control. Tonight: Burning the candle at both ends.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) ••••• Make an effort to get past another person’s vitriol and to get to the real issue. This person might not be able to explain his or her stance, forcing you to do the work to decipher his or her message. Tonight: Follow the music.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) •••• You often defer to a partner. Today this person is happy to pitch in. You might be overwhelmed by others’ need to get to the bottom of a problem. Tonight: Togetherness is the theme.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) ••• If you stop and consider various situations, you could be raining on your own parade — the problem is you, not others. Take this person seriously.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) •••• Your ability to make a difference reflects in your productivity when you are focused. Evaluate what a family member really expects. Tonight: Working too late!

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) ••••• Once more, let your imagination flow. You might push away a friend who is touchy, but you cannot remain positive and upbeat with “that someone” around. Tonight: Talking up a storm.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) ••• Stay anchored and direct. Fatigue marks your professional interactions. You could be too involved sometimes, and not taking good care of yourself. Tonight: Deal with a situation.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ••••• You might be uncomfortable or too direct. You wonder what is going on and have a tremendous need for answers. Tonight: Hanging out with a friend.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) ••• Curb a tendency to overdo it. What you think is helping could be quite off. More and more, a partner becomes closed off. Tonight: Fun doesn’t need to cost.
