Wednesday, Jan. 19, 2005
In the year ahead it’s possi
ble that conditions will improve
remarkably for you with your
work or career, freeing you up
and giving you more time to
devote to pleasurable pursuits.
Strike up a good balance.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19) This will be one of those
days when business and pleas
ure mix quite comfortably with
the situation at hand. If you
have something special to nego
tiate, discuss it over a pleasant
lunch.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.
19) This is a better-than
average day for a romantic ren
dezvous with your special
someone. Don’t waste it on
humdrum activities. Find time
for an evening of candlelight,
wine and love.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20)
You’re not likely to go unno
ticed today in any surroundings
or group you happen to be with.
Even those who never paid
much attention to you might
cast admiring glances your way.
ARIES (March 21-April 19)
Properly motivated, you are
quite capable of substantial
achievements today. This
becomes particularly true if you
are desirous of bettering your
lot in life in material ways.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
You’re usually not one who
necessarily wants to take a
leadership role, but today oth
ers will turn to you in situa
tions where a common concern
is involved. You can do what
they can’t.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
Be on your toes, because an
opportunity you’ve been hoping
for may present itself today
that would enable you to
change something that thus far
has not been going in your
favor.
CANCER (June 21-July 22)
What makes you such a pop
ular person today is the rare
gift you have of making every
one with whom you come in
contact feel like the most
important person in your life.
Use your skill well.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) lt
pays to be extra solicitous of
people who are working on
your behalf today. You can spur
them on to greater endeavors
by letting them know how
appreciative you are of their
efforts.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
A romantic adventure with
someone special could be the
bright spot in your life today. It
might be with a person to
whom you’re committed or, for
the unattached, with a new
encounter.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23)
You’ll be quite adroit today at
managing or directing matters
and situations for those you
love. Under your guidance,
they’ll enjoy benefits that you
made possible.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22)
Don’t do on your own today
that which can be done better
with a strong ally. Know in
advance that you could be
extremely fortunate now
through partnership situations.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-
Dec. 21) ln situations today
where you are unselfishly moti
vated to aid others, it will be
you who ends up receiving
more than the rest in the end.
