We Celebrate Hometown Life
Stories from hometowns just like yours. Look for us each week in this paper.
THE HOUSTON HOME JOURNAL
Astro Graph
By Bernice Bede Osol
Friday, March 4, 2005
Your long range prospects for
material growth and accumula
tion in the year ahead look
enormously encouraging for
you. These gains could come
about both through hard effort
and strange circumstances.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20)
The boss may not always be
right, but remember that he or
she is still the boss. Challenge
your boss’ thinking today if you
must, but don’t make waves by
challenging this person’s
authority.
ARIES (March 21-April 19)
Unless your plans are realis
tic and well-thought-out today,
there’s a chance you’ll get your
self into a bind where it might
be difficult to unravel the fruits
of your own poor judgment.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
No one likes possessive or
dictatorial people, so make cer
tain you don’t come on that
way to them. Make certain you
give your pals the same latitude
of freedom you want for your
self.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
lt’s quite unlike you to be
stubborn, but today you might
become quite unyielding and
refuse to appreciate the points
of views of others. It could cost
you both some allies and your
good image.
CANCER (June 21-July 22)
Lots of aggravation but little
accomplishment could result
today if you spread yourself too
thin where your work or career
is concerned. Plan ahead and
stick to your blueprint.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Be
extra carefUl today in situa
tions or ventures where an
investment is required on your
part. Study things thoroughly
until you are completely com
fortable with the arrange
ments.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Any disagreement that arises
today between you and your
partner must be resolved in the
privacy of your own home. It
will make matters worse if the
issues are discussed in front of
others.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23)
Remember that old saying,
“Unless you have something
nice to say about another, say
nothing.” It’s best you abide by
this today, because your com
ments will be repeated.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22)
Don’t be the one who intro
duces betting into a friendly
competitive activity today.
You’ll only have yourself to
blame if it is your wallet that
gets emptied.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-
Dec. 21) There’s a chance
that you can be a bit more tem
peramental today than usual.
And, unfortunately, make it
worse by getting angry at some
one, but take it out on another
who won’t be forgiving.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19) lf someone is disturbing
you today, this might be one of
those times when it is wise to
discuss it. However, talk it out
privately with the person
involved without involving oth
©rs.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.
19) lt’s always good to be
hopeful in situations where you
anticipate gains from putting
forth honest effort, but keep
your expectations within rea
sonable bounds today so you’re
not disappointed.
