Your managerial skills will be
heightened in the year ahead
and recognized by the powers
that be. You could be asked to
handle a situation that would
earn you much esteem and
merit handsomely in the
process.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20)
Although your ideas and
concepts could contain great
merit, if your attitude is nega
tive and sour today, you will fail
to appreciate their worth and
not use them to your benefit.
ARIES (March 21-April 19)
Don’t ignore an opportunity
for adding to your resources
today just because it came
about through someone you
don’t like. Jump at the chance
immediately because it will be
fleeting.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
Try to keep your conversa
tions on the light and breezy
side today in your involvements
with friends. Neither you nor
they will profit from emotional
ly heated discussions.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
There will be ample opportu
nities that pop up today where
your career or goals are con
cerned. However, if you react in
a ho-hum fashion, they could
evaporate right before your
eyes.
CANCER (June 21-July 22)
Should a friend or associate
come to you today for help,
offer this person lots of ideas
and suggestions, but it would
n’t be a good idea to assist
monetarily. Things could turn
sour.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)
Under no circumstances should
you allow others to poke their
noses in your affairs today in
which they are not directly
involved. They may mean well,
but could muddy the waters
even further.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Avoid basing your judgments
on emotional contingencies
today, because they will greatly
distort your common sense or
any instinctual reactions that
might be trying to guide you.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23)
Don’t get yourself all in a dither
today over confusing conditions
at work, because, rather than
setting you back, they could
serve to awaken your ingenuity
for creating further growth.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22)
Make it a point to devise
occasional breaks in your rou
tines today, so that you won’t
get stuck in a monotonous rut.
If you feel tied down, it could
make you despondent and inef
fective.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-
Dec. 21) lnstead of rational
izing or making excuses today
as to why you shouldn’t do
something, do what needs
doing as each job pops up and
you’ll end the day with a sense
of real accomplishment.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19) Once you decide to
shelve some activity until
another day in order to partici
pate in a fun involvement
today, let it go and don’t think
about it again. Eryoy yourself
without guilt.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.
19) Don’t toss in the towel
too prematurely today in any of
your business dealings or
money-making transactions.
Something that looks like a
loser could make a turnaround
to your advantage.
