ARIES (March 21-April 19)HHHH Though you might get a surprising jolt or two, you can deal with it. Know that, and trust yourself. A discussion might help clear the air, relieving unneeded stress. By the afternoon, you find that others will adjust.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHHH Your imagination could go a bit haywire if you’re not careful. You hear some strange news that comes from out of left field. The good news is, these words touch your creativity. Plug this energy into different facets of your life.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH Understanding your limits might be instrumental to your sanity right now. You cannot control others, and any attempt to do so could be more upset- ting than you’d anticipated. Adopt a laissez-faire attitude. You will be hap- pier and more relaxed.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH You might want to think before you leap into action. Realize your limits with key people in your life. A new door will swing t cupid wide open if you are accepting. Keep communication flowing.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH Handle your finances with kid gloves. If connected to another, you could be affected by someone’s quirkiness. Al- low yourself to take a minor risk, such as a buying a lottery ticket. You might hit a home run!
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH A lot might be out of control for the moment, but you have the energy to successfully handle whatever someone Margaret Ann Gratten/KANSAN tosses in your path. A family member needs to revise his or her thinking. Gen- t friend or faux? tly walk this person to where you are.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHH Knowing when to back off today could determine the long-term results of an important situation. You might need to revise your thinking a bit. There is no time like the present. Think rather than act.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHHH Knowing what you are aiming for could make or break today’s results. An invest- ment involving your home, which could even be a home office, comes up today. Seth Bundy/KANSAN For some, a real estate investment heads in your direction. t lizard boy SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH Without realizing it, you assume a lot of responsibility and might have a problem out of the blue. Your ability to adjust and flex helps you. Keep talking, even if a situation gets diffi- cult. Everyone, including you, will see a situation in a new light!
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH You might not always be comfortable with what comes down your path. Today is no different. You might need to adjust Sam Hemphill/KANSAN your thinking in response to a money matter. Flex, and happiness ensues. t college ruled comics AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHHH You’ll get results by working with oth- ers independently. If you let go of your “stuff,” you will see life quite differently. Be willing to see people as they are, as opposed to how you wish they were.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHHH Others do a most effective job of shaking up the status quo. You might want to re- think your ideas regarding someone who often challenges you. You could opt not to be annoyed and instead feel relieved “American lasagna.” Sam Patrick/KANSAN that someone thinks about you.
