For Friday, Sept. 21:

This year you focus on your domestic and personal life, though all aspects are important. Excitement comes in from a close friend or loved one who is a walking jack-in-the-box; you never know what will happen next. Hopefully, you can deal with a little stress. Others would like you to be more active, and they will not hesitate to let you know. If you are single, you will gain a sidekick. If you are attached, the two of you need to loosen up more and enjoy the moment.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult

••••• Let your imagination lead the way. Be ready to take off at the drop of a hat. Tonight: Go for something unique.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

••••• Realize where you are heading and defer to someone else. You understand that not everything is one way or the other. Tonight: Play away.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

•••• You are one of the few people whose focus is less on getting into the weekend and more on completing errands and/or a project. For those of you who are working Moon Children, you will want to clear out your desk. Tonight: Only what you want.

••••• Allow more creativity to come forward. Through a meeting, you’ll see many possibilities. Tonight: Start the weekend right.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

•••• Center yourself, and you will open the door to many more opportunities. Someone in your personal life — or someone who wants to become a part of it — shares some deeper feelings. Tonight: Head home early.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

••••• How you say what you think has much to do with the manner in which the words are received. You, more than most other signs, understand the art of diplomacy and the need to use it in a difficult situation. Tonight: To your favorite haunt.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

•••• You might want to take that extra step toward helping a special person in your life. This person will be very grateful, even if he or she does not express the gratitude you might like. Remember, everyone has a different style. Tonight: You are the lead actor.
