THE HOUSTON HOME JOURNAL
Astro Graph
By Bernice Bede Osol
Friday. Aug. 26, 2005
It looks like you could be
given far greater responsibility
in the year ahead where your
work is concerned. A job well
done will lead to further
advancement and increased
compensation you wouldn’t
otherwise receive.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
Something in which you are
presently involved may get
stymied today because of the
failure of certain parts coming
together. Don’t lose your
patience; give it plenty of time
to materialize.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23)
You might not be as lucky as
you think you should be today
in your Financial affairs. Don’t
let your ego rule and impel you
to take chances. Use your head
instead to make the gains.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22)
lf your mate is not in accord
with your ideas concerning a
delicate family matter today,
attempting to force the issue
will only make things worse. A
compromise can be reached in
time.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-
Dec. 21) Those in your
charge must be managed with
tact and tolerance today if you
hope to maintain control over
matters. Trying to goad them
into compliance may evoke a
reaction of defiance.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19) Before purchasing a big
ticket item today, it behooves
you to do your homework by
checking consumer reports and
do some comparison-shopping.
A poor choice would be very
expensive.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.
19) lf you lose your patience
today over a current pesky
problem, it could cause you to
try an approach that might
evoke even more trouble. Mark
time until the answer is at
hand.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20)
Chances are you could be an
unusually slow starter today. If
you want to use your tinte pro
ductively, the motivation must
come from within, not from
lying about and doing nothing.
‘ ARIES (March 21-April 19)
The fulfillment of your
desires may be restricted today
because of a lack of resources.
But if you use your smarts and
ingenuity, you’ll come up with
several ways to satisfy your
restlessness.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
lf your approach to things
appears to be too self-serving
today, you’ll arouse resentment
in your associates. If you want
to gain their support and be
successful, be both subtle and
unselfish.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20)
Don’t let your pride hamper
you from asking advice today
regarding a problem you are
unable to resolve. No one will
think the less of you, no matter
how obvious or simple the
answer may be.
CANCER (June 21-July 22)
ln your involvements with
friends today, it’s futile to start
adding up and comparing how
many favors each has done for
you or the other. Give time all it
needs to balance the ledger.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Be
careful today or you could get
yourself drawn into a partner
ship arrangement where you
are teamed up with someone
whose aims are not in harmony
with yours. Nothing can come
of it.
