HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Sunday, Jan. 14, 2018:
This year you become very serious-minded and accepting of new responsibilities. Remember, this attitude is only a phase. Life at times could feel heavy, but again, know that this period will end, given some time. If you are single, you could meet someone whom you feel is right for you. Take your time before making any commitments. If you are attached, the two of you might make some adjustments, and could take on a major project. Make sure that you dot your i’s and cross your t’s. A fellow CAPRICORN is full of advice!

This Week: Spiff up your image.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

This Week: Step back in order to see a situation differently.
CANCER (June 21-July 22)

This Week: An invitation might be exciting, but also could mean a late night.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

This Week: A change on the homefront requires your agreement.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

This Week: Be prepared to hear someone’s very different opinion.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

This Week: Test the waters, and see the results of an investment.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

This Week: Make a personal decision, but don’t announce it just yet.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)
**** You see what others can’t even imagine. Part of the reason this is possible is that you are not involved. You’ll look at all the actions, reactions and subsequent actions from an observer’s perspective. Make fewer judgments. Tonight: Share news.
This Week: Zero in on what needs to happen, then follow through.
