Keep paper and a pencil near your bed, and make time to write down your dreams. TAURUS Confer with friends late in the day regarding weekend plans. Otherwise, keep your thoughts to yourself as you gath er up your profits. GEMINI Remember how some body once told you to be polite? To be respectful to authority fig ures? You don’t have to agree, but no wisecracks now. They’d be counterproductive. CANCER If you can manage it, get away for a while tonight as reward for a rather tough week. Old friends and a favorite set ting are perfect for recharging your entnusiasm. LEO You’re alternately frugal and overly generous. You’ll be more financially secure if you draw up a plan and stick to it. Consult an expert. VIRGO Have you figured out what needs to be changed in or der to make your workload eas ier? Make a list, because soon you’ll have a chance to share your ideas. LIBRA You’re drawing a lot of at tention, partially because you’re so cute. If you stay calm and don’t let it go to your head, maybe you’ll bring in more work. SCORPIO The logjam is almost unstuck, and there’ll be more progress soon. Make some spe cial time tonight to spend with one you love, rrepare a nappy surprise. SAGITTARIUS Keep studying, even if it seems as if you’re not learning a thing. You’ll find out how much you’ve absorbed once you finally get to use it. CAPRICORN Make the extra ef fort to get letters and packages out. Communications may be come more difficult over the next few days — OK, weeks. AQUARIUS Postpone big deci sions. Things are in a state of flux. Wait until next week to make a big decision. PISCES Your mechanical apti tude is getting better. Combine that with your gut instincts, and you might really prove the exis tence of God, to yourself as well as others.
