You don’t always do things the way others want you to do them, but you don’t insist on doing things your way all the time either; you will compromise when you must -- but only when you sense that there is something to be gained in doing so that you might not enjoy otherwise. SUNDAY, OCTOBER 25 SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You’re eager to be taken seriously, and yet you’re willing to play the clown to get what you want. This dilemma can be reconciled today. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- Any hesitation today is likely to set you back much further than expected. Unless it’s part of the SATURDAY, OCTOBER 24, 2020 plan, avoid any kind of slowdown. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You’ll see things more clearly today than you have in the recent past; you’re able to set a friend straight about a misunderstood situation. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You’re going to have to hold your cards very close to the vest today, as there are those who really want to know what you have going on. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You get a glimpse of the way things could be today as you work hard simply to make them better. This gives you the inspiration you need. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You’ll have to judge the timing of events with great care today and be sure that you’re not expecting anyone to do too much at any one time. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You’ll want to be at the center of the action today, so you must prepare for any and all eventualities. Even a small error can cost you much. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You are tak- ing the kind of risk that others have warned you against, and yet you’re determined to move ahead come what will. You’re ready. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You’ve come to the critical point in your preparation for a certain endeavor that more preparation will do you no more good. It’s time to start! LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You may fear that someone is doing what you have warned against, and indeed, something is likely to happen today that you’ve long feared. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You’ve been building up your confidence now for quite some time, and today is the day to put into motion a new, possibly dangerous plan. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You may find someone’s actions threatening, but that is in no way intended. Retreat to a safe distance until you’re ready to reengage.
