FIGHTIN* AN f CARD GAME SHOOTIN* 1 TONIGHT !« !l 1 v-. _i THAR'S ONLY TWO WORDS FER THAT— l — _V._L-1 l-v HOROSCOPES IP* Aries (March 21-April 19) You’re luckier than you were yesterday, and you’re a whole lot luckier than just about everybody else. Your sweetheart’s most likely complaining about the boss. You have to watch your mon ey closely, but basically, you’re doing fine. If you’re going to buy anything, have it be sav ings bonds. Taurus (April 20-May 20) Something’s shifted by now, most likely. Many things in your life are the same, but some may be a lit tle different. If not yet, then soon. If there’s a habit you’ve been trying to break, for exam ple, make a new declaration. Say out loud that things are different and that you’re changing. If you can say it, you can do it. ^ Gemini (May 21-June 21) Today, it’ll be easier to get your ideas across and to do just about everything else. You might even be able to sell something that was rejected before! You’re good at sales. You have a good attitude, you explain things well, and you don’t hold a grudge. So, dig out an idea or a product you’ve tried to peddle before, and this time, close the deal. Cancer (June 22-July 22) Speaking of jobs, this workday could get downright intense. Nothing wants to stick to the sched ule. You don’t mind changes, but this looks more like a major disruption. The only thing that would make this worth while is if it somehow makes more money come in. More savings, more profit, more efficiency. Make sure it does that or pitch a fit. & Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) You should feel pretty good today. You’ve got reinforcements, in the form of somebody who loves you. This person may not actually be out there on the playing field with you, but knowing you have that support really helps. Today, it could give you the advantage. &£ Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Home is where the heart is, and it’s where you should be, too, just as fast as you can get there. The ten sions are starting to ease, partially due to your attentions. You haven’t had time for a ner vous breakdown yourself, not that you would, of course. But, if you want the chance to try, home’s your best place. Relax and enjoy it. £*& Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) You’re a good interpreter, but you may feel like you have to learn another language to keep up. Well, that’s not such a bad idea. If you were ever going to do it, this would be a good day to start. You have some motivation, too. The more you know, the more valuable and helpful you’ll be. ^(0 Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21) Yesterday, your performance was most likely brilliant. If you impressed the producer enough, you could get the leading role in the upcoming production. Somebody’s going to pay for your services, perhaps not in the way you expected. It could be better, actually. It could be valuable information. Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You’re one of the few who’s still in a good mood. Most of the others are snarling or hissing at each other, depending on their species. They’re acting like animals — biting, nipping, squawking and chirping incessantly. This is communication? Well, maybe eventually they’ll get tired and start listening, too. -Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19), Keep your ear to .the keyhole today. Something over heard, or that comes through the grapevine, could be just what you’re looking for. You’re accessing information you’re not usually privy to, and that’s only part of what’s inter- , esting about it. To help things along, ask leading questions of people who are likely to know. V &L Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) All of a sud den a friend shows up with just what you \ need. A smile, a pizza, perhaps a dozen roses. Everything’s bright again. Something you were afraid you couldn’t do looks easy. Isn’t it wonderful when this happens? Do the same for somebody else. Pass it along. Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) Now it’s your turn to speak up. You didn’t want to, but they haven’t thought of something that’s obvious to you. That’s why there are so many types of people — so everything will be obvious to somebody. It sure isn’t obvious to everybody. Better let them know what they need to do next.
