This year, tap into your creativity more often. Detach, and you’ll see unusual pathways and restrictions clear. Don’t wonder; rather, just explore. If you are single, you will meet someone who elevates your mind and soul. Decide if you want more. If you are attached, the two of you finally need to plan a long-coveted trip. Pisces illuminates your day.

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 touch of cynicism will take you far. A proposal that seems unbeatable probably needs to be investigated with greater care and concern. Tonight: Listen to the whispers.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

••••• You have a lot to smile about, but if you take someone for granted, you could be witness to a sore ego. Avoid a difficult situation, and deal with a money issue head-on. Tonight: Where your friends are.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

••• You have a style or way about you that sometimes attracts a lot of compliments. Do remember that you cannot control others, though you might give it a shot. Tonight: Till the wee hours.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

•••• If you are in the mood, venture in a new direction and have a long-overdue conversation. Explore various options before committing to any path. Tonight: Return calls.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

•••• Extend yourself in the friendliest manner possible. You need to understand your limits — where they end and where they begin. Tonight: The only answer is “yes.”

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

••• Once more, continue letting others assume the role they want. Understand what is going on beyond the obvious. Refuse to get caught up in a power play. Don’t allow people and/or a specific someone to push your buttons. Understand when enough is enough. Tonight: Sort through invitations.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

••• Your stability might be an asset. You are trying to deal with an issue involving home and family that is difficult at best. Tonight: You cannot prevent someone from going up in smoke!

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

•••• Focus on the positive, knowing full well your attitude could change the direction of a major venture. Be willing to state your feelings. Tonight: As you like it.
