Brian Tanner promises not to bring Nov. 9, 2011 horoscopes — by Eugenia Last up zombies again until at least Thanksgiving. ARIES March 21-April 19 Ask questions, and talk about what’s expected of you. Preparation will be a key compo- nent to your success. Your mood will be dependent on how things go. Romance is in the stars, and a celebra- tion will ease your stress.

TAURUS April 20-May 20 Keep busy. Learn all you can about something you are trying to master. Participation will make the difference. Networking and being receptive to different ways of doing things will help you advance. Emphasis should be placed on health and well-being.

GEMINI May 21-June 20 Your home is your castle. Spend time fixing things up to better suit your needs. Take a look at an investment. It is probably time to make a change. Keep your assets accessible so you can take advan- tage of a good deal.

CANCER June 21-July 22 Participate in a cause you believe in. Reach out to people you feel can help as well as to those who need assistance. Collaborating will put you in a good position and help to build strong alliances with people who can be of benefit to you personally.

LEO July 23-Aug. 22 Don’t push your luck when dealing with superiors. If you overreact, you will end up losing. Practical application will pay off. Concentrate on what you can do to make yourself the best that you can be mentally, physically, and emotionally.

VIRGO Aug. 23-Sept. 22 Interact with people who have something to offer. The more knowledge you can pick up, the better equipped you will be to handle whatever comes your way. Expanding your interests or friendships will lead to a change of heart and opinion.

LIBRA Sept. 23-Oct. 22 A change can do you good. Visiting someone you don’t see often will lead to an opportu- nity. You can make a personal change that will bring compliments your way. You don’t need to go overboard to get a reaction.

SCORPIO Oct. 23-Nov. 21 You’ll be pulled in two different directions when it comes to emotional matters. Step back, and reassess your situation before taking action. Ask questions if you are unclear about where you stand or what’s expected of you.

SAGITTARIUS Nov. 22-Dec. 21 Mix business with pleasure. Offer suggestions based on experience to those inter- ested in taking part in your work. Communication, along with mixing the old with the new, will bring splendid results.

CAPRICORN Dec. 22-Jan. 19 A chance to improve your home and your personal relationships looks promising. Go above and beyond the call of duty; you will get twice as much in return. You must take advantage of an invest- ment opportunity. Filter through your options.

AQUARIUS Jan. 20-Feb. 18 As long as you stay calm and stick to basics, you will have ample time to accomplish your goals. An unusual turn of events will lead to a profitable ending. Love is in the stars, and celebrating should be your plan.

PISCES Feb. 19-March 20 Rely on experience to see your way through a trying situation. Avoid reunions with peo- ple who have never been an asset. Be honest with yourself about the way you feel, and you will make the right decision.
