HorOSCOpC by Frances Drake For Thursday, May 8, 1997 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) You could go overboard on either entertaining or spending on the home. A disagreement could occur over money. A faraway friend gets in touch with you after dark. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) There’s no sense arguing with someone whose mind is already made up. Where financial interests are concerned, it’s best to be closedmouthed. There’s no sense in tipping your hand. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Couples enjoy a special outing to gether. Romance and pleasurable interests are highlighted. You could make a major decision affecting fam ily and home. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) In career dealings, someone beats around the bush. There’s a climate of rumor and innuendo surrounding you. Evening hours are best for stat ing your case. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Shoppers could find themselves returning an item. A special close ness exists among family members. It’s a fruitful time for you. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) You could have a good time shop ping. A career opportunity comes to your attention via a surprising source. You might review an innova tive idea proposed by a co-worker. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) You take a new approach to a business concern, and later in the day, you speak out during a group function. A stimulating exchange of ideas leaves you recharged. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Serious mental work goes best early in the day. A loving tie calls with happy news. The evening would be a good time to go see a movie or to visit a new restaurant. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) It is a good time for making impor tant phone calls and for career-re lated discussions. You could travel for business purposes. You reach an understanding with a relative. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) You have luck getting some unfin ished projects out of the way. You opt for quiet pursuits over outside entertainment. The evening is peace ful and soothing to your rattled nerves. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Travel is a plus. You get along just fine with close ties. The day brings many social options. The evening accents romance. Bask in the glow of the loving feelings. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Surprise developments in business are in your favor. You’re tempted to be self-indulgent. Impatience could lead to errors in judgment, so slow YOU BORN TODAY are inter ested in the unusual and innovative. You would make a fine storyteller or researcher into life’s mysteries. You’re creative and practical, and the two traits often are at war with each other. Some of your feelings you keep hidden — which does not ease your path in personal relation ships. Businesses related to the sci ences probably appeal to you. Birthdate of: Peter Benchley, writer, Thomas Pynchon, writer; Melissa Gilbert-Boxleitner, actress. O 1997 King Features Syndicate Inc
