Horoscope for Jan. 18

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)

••• Pressure starts feeling like the norm. A boss makes demands that really cannot be met at this point. Tonight: Home is where the heart is.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

••••• Keep stretching past an original plan or concept. You might need more feedback in order to get past a self-imposed restriction. Tonight: Dodge a problem person.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

••• Do you feel pressured? Is it of your own design or a realistic problem? Be careful in your dealings with others. Tonight: If hitting a wall, back off or jump over; stop walking into it.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

•••• Your best efforts could get thwarted. You have hit a major road block, be it a person, several people or a structure in the system. Tonight: Play it low-key.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

••• Assuming a low-key role with others remains the smart action. Use extra time well, doing research or going off to do what you want. Tonight: Secretive work.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

•••• One person makes a demand that puts you in a position of disappointing others. You might be juggling far more than any one person can handle. Tonight: Know when to call it a night.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

••• You handle the lion’s share of responsibility at home and at work. You might feel most uncomfortable with what is on your plate. Tonight: Choose a stressbuster.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

•••• Just as you seem to be on cruise control, a boomerang lands in your path. You make an adjustment, internalizing and acting on the implications of the boomerang. Tonight: Hang out on the computer!

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

•••• Restructure your finances so they work for you, not someone else. If you look at a money situation openly and without bias, you might understand where someone is coming from, whether or not you choose that path. Tonight: Accept an offer.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

••• If you see a lot of flak around you, hold up the mirror. Is it possible that you are being demanding, controlling and/or caustic? Yes, you. Tonight: What you want.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

••• It might be easier to revamp your thinking than demanding that others change, which is unlikely to happen. Tonight: Go for a walk, or find another stressbuster.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

•••• Your creative drive points to a special path, one which others might balk at and back off from. Tonight: Go where spontaneity dominates.
