Wednesday, November 11, 2015 horoscopes by Eugenia Last ARIES (March 21-April 19): Enough is enough. Whatever doesn’t work for you should be reconsidered and changed. It’s time to work on achieving better results. Your generosity has created more of a hin- drance than a benefit, and you must get back to doing what counts. TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Offering assistance will lead to a profitable union. Attend networking functions, or check out the job market to see if something interests you. Interviews, negotiations, and business trips are favored. Expand your professional interests. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Stay on top of whatever situation you face when networking or socializing. Not everyone will be honest with you. A disciplined approach to your responsibilities will bring the best results and show others how capable you are. CANCER (June 21-July 22): You may not get along with everyone today, but if you are willing to look at both sides of a situation, you will come up with solutions that will make you look like a genius. Don’t fret — take on new challenges optimistically. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Don’t fold under pressure. Everything will be OK if you remain calm and offer reasonable suggestions and answers. Don’t lose sight of the changes you want to make to improve your state of mind, opportunities, and your personal life. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Talks will lead to new opportunities. Your ability to persuade others to see your point of view or to collaborate with you on a project will ensure success. A changing relationship could offer a unique lifestyle change. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Re-evaluate your skills and qualifications, and upgrade where necessary. Your knowledge will have a lot to do with your success. Don’t hide your talents or think everyone else can do things better. Express your interest to a potential employer. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Situations will move too quickly or not fast enough. Patience and preparation will be the key to how far you will get. Offering help to someone in need will spark enthusiasm to try something new and unusual. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Secrets are best kept until you are certain the information you have isn’t going to hurt you or someone else. A responsible attitude will be necessary to maintain your reputa- tion or position. Concentrate on making positive changes at home. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): When it comes to work projects, search for reliable people and delegate matters to those you trust. Put your plans into motion, and consider ways to turn something you do well into a moneymaking venture. Stay on top of nutrition and physical wellness. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Don’t step into the spotlight unless you are ready to be criticized. Put more into self-improvement and work- ing behind the scenes to ensure that you are fully prepared to take on whatever challenges await you. Romance is encouraged. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): You will be hard to resist, no matter what you do. Whether it’s business or personal matters, your persuasive tac- tics will help you achieve your goals. An opportunity to get involved in a lucrative joint venture looks promising.
