By King Soopers at Taft & Elizabeth | 970-472-1777 Wednesday, May 5, 2010 | The Rocky Mountain Collegian e ord in ro og b eu enia ast ARiES (March 21-April 19): Take the edge off your stress by doing something physically challenging or that can boost your confidence. Interacting with people who offer a differ- ent slant on things will help you formulate new plans with greater potential for success. 4 stars
Da e Anderson Da e tAURUS (April 20-May 20): An emotional matter that re- volves around home and family will raise issues that need to be addressed. Decide what’s important to you and what
i e on e dge e on i e you must discard in order to ease tension and keep things amicable. 2 stars GEMini (May 21-June 20): Inconsistency and uncertainty are the enemies. Don’t let anger or someone’s discontent sway you from what you know in your heart must be done. This is the time to think, make your plans, do your own thing and discover what life has to offer you. 5 stars An ER (June 21-July 22): Show stability by sticking to your plans and following through with promises. Older and younger people in your life will be counting on you and you mustn’t let them down, no matter what. Avoid overspending. 3 stars lE (July 23-Aug. 22): You’ll be inclined to react harshly Anon Mous Anon toward anyone who disagrees with you. Emotional issues will be raised and can lead to an argument as easily as to a passionate encounter. The outcome will be directly linked e e or e to the way you deal with the suggestions made. 3 stars ViRG (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Productive projects with mon- eymaking potential should be on your agenda. Proper diet and regular exercise should be implemented into your ev- eryday routine. Keep a close watch over what everyone around you is contributing. 3 stars liBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): This is the perfect day to con- tribute to your emotional well-being. Don’t let someone else’s uncertainty cause you to miss out on something you really want to do. You’ll enhance your love life if you are playful and experimental. 5 stars S RPi (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Avoid people who withhold Derrick urton
bb e information or use emotional ultimatums. Stand up for what you want. It’s not worth holding on to a relationship that is all take and no give. Back away from anyone who won’t meet you halfway. 2 stars SAGittARiUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Fact finding will be in your best interest, especially when it has to do with legal, financial or medical issues. A new friendship can turn into a financially worthwhile connection if you share knowledge. 4 stars APRi Rn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Worrying about a money matter won’t save you from loss but making an unexpected move will. Set up a budget that will help you deter anyone from trying to talk you out of your cash. Put your money into your home or an investment property. 3 stars A UARiUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Nothing will be easy for you if you let your emotions take over.
