For Tuesday, Feb. 14:

This year you become more aware of your public image. Attempt to groom it to be more in line with your goals. You will experience a newfound popularity and success. If you are single, you will draw someone much more akin to your needs, probably after spring 2012. If attached, you and your significant other could grow much closer if focusing on a common goal. SAGITTARIUS is your friend.

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)

•••• Let others initiate. If you are not comfortable with the conversation, do not close it off or say “no.” Give yourself time to detach and understand this person’s logic. Tonight: A new idea works.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

•••• Whether you are working or just enjoying yourself, you are surrounded by people — admirers and supporters. Clearly you are needed, desired or wanted. You can pick and choose only so much as to where, when and what. Tonight: Accept a dinner invitation.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

••• Plunge into a project, knowing full well that you have other matters you would prefer to attend to. Clear this matter out, along with anything else that might prevent you from being carefree and a bit impulsive in the near future. Think positively. Tonight: Be where you want to be.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

••••• You might have delivered some Valentine’s Day cookies to a loved one or some friends this morning. Use this day to let others know you care. Tonight: You will be tired.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

••• You might want to stay at home or sleep in. Some of you actually might follow through on this desire. Those of you who don’t, wish you had. Tonight: Add some love into the mix.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

•••• You breeze into work full of information, questions and ideas. Hopefully, you are well received. Some of your compatriots and friends did not respond as well to their dreamtime. Tonight: Get some quiet time.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

••• Curb a need to be controlling or to have things go your way. You simply do not have that much control over others. Evaluate a sense of possessiveness that you might have toward a person. Tonight: Munchies with a favorite person.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

•••• This morning, you are at your best, and others respond accordingly. By afternoon, confusion, others’ egos and misunderstandings could prevail. Do not stand on ceremony if a situation is not evolving as you would like it to. Tonight: Treat yourself on the way home.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

••• You could be out of sorts, or so it seems, until late afternoon. Some might think your personality change is quite dramatic. Confusion and bad communication could play into the afternoon. Tonight: Go for a heartfelt desire.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

••• Zero in on possibilities, and do not get caught up with details right now. All that is happening is subject to rapid change. You might wonder if this is for real. Tonight: Play it low-key.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

••••• Honor your feelings involving a boss or higher-up. This person could reverse his or her course quickly. A meeting in the afternoon might be even more significant than you’d anticipated. Tonight: Where your friends are.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

••••• You could be pushing too hard to convince others of the rightness of your thinking. If you detach and let others discover what works on their own, you will like the change in your relationships more. Tonight: Could go to the wee hours.
