By Bernice Bede Osol
That which you have learned
and developed over the years
could start to play key roles in
your successes in the year
ahead. You’ll know how to put
them to practical use in ways
that will further your interests.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19) Having the freedom to
do what you choose or do noth
ing at all will be a right you’ll
demand for yourself today. It
isn’t likely you’ll take kindly to
anyone attempting to boss you
around.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.
19) lt’s essential that you
find some time just for yourself
today in order to refurbish your
inner being. Find that cozy cor
ner where you can shut out the
world and relax just for the day.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20)
Although you may be some
what of a dreamer, you’ll be a
realistic one today. You’ll see
how things could be, as well as
how they actually are, reflect
ing a genuine promise of hope.
ARIES (March 21-April 19)
Carefully assess all com
ments directed toward you
today that come from people
you respect. There may be
some gems hidden among the
remarks that would give you
insights into yourself.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
What makes this such a suc
cessful day for you is your abil
ity to treat serious situations
with the respect they deserve,
but with enough philosophical
thought to remain optimistic
about life.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
Chances are you may
breathe new life into your
financial affairs today by for
mulating a serious but work
able new budget. With determi
nation, you can easily secure
your position.
CANCER (June 21-July 22)
lf you’re feeling a bit restless
today, chances are what is lack
ing is good companionship.
Don’t sit waiting for the phone
to ring, call someone up and
make plans to get together for
some fun.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)
Although this may be a day of
rest for most, you won’t feel ful
filled or satisfied with yourself
unless you accomplish some
thing productive. Instead of
idling the time away, be indus
trious.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Blended in proper proportion,
sharing part of your day with
both your family and friends
can be gratifying. Give your kin
the quality time they deserve,
but give yourself some fun as
well.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23)
Don’t be afraid to take on a
serious commitment today
when it comes to improving
your living space. You might be
hesitant at first, but you’ll grow
with determination as you get
going.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22)
Because you’ll have your
head screwed on straight today,
more than one person could
turn to you for some sound
advice on their affairs. Your
remarks will carry a lot of
weight.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-
Dec. 21) Focus on matters
that could make or save you a
few bucks today, such as doing a
home repair yourself that
you’re capable of doing or
cleaning out the garage and
selling what you don’t want.
