Lake St., Church Basement TUESDAY, JANUARY 12, 2021 YOUR BIRTHDAY by Stella Wilder Born today, you are not always the person other people want to go to or rely on in times of trouble -- and why? The fact is that you are often far too self-absorbed to validate those around you the way they deserve, and your efforts throughout each and every day are designed to keep you in the driver’s seat and score as many personal gains as you possibly can. This doesn’t mean you turn your back on those in need; on the contrary, you can be quite helpful -- and even indispensable -- to others, but before you lift a finger to help, you have to be sure that your own situation is secure. WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 13 CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You may be giving the impression you’re busy and on task, but the truth is you’re lacking moti- vation. What do you really want to do? AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You may be restless as the day begins, but the input of a friendly adviser likely has you making a plan and putting that energy to good use. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- Keep things simple today; you’ll benefit in ways you can- not yet imagine. It’s a good time to make streamlining changes in your home. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- The feeling that you have let someone down will be hard to shake today -- until the person in question reveals you’ve done all you can! TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You should be able to do for someone else what he or she recently did for you -- but this time the ben- efits will likely be shared between you. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Take care that you’re not merely letting a knee-jerk reaction dictate your decision-making pro- cess today. Give all issues some real thought! CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- The possi- bilities may not be endless today, but you can surely do something that others would never expect. You can surprise them all! LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You have what it y Free Evaluation for • Proper Trimming • Safety • Removal • Insect - Disease Control • Stump Grinding • Tree Replacement • Licensed • Insured • 48 years experience LOCAL Tree Service Fine Quality Consignment Clothing RILEY EXCAVATION INC.

You’ll have to make a decision, howev- er, and focus on only one venue. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You know who’s on your side right now, but it’s not something you want to advertise for both your sakes. You must withhold other key information. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- Now is not the time to insist on anything -- but what comes to you as a matter of course will surely give you an advantage over a rival. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You can make up for lost time today -- and someone can help you do it. You’ll realize this working relationship is worth exploring! SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You’re able to see things very clearly today, despite the obstacles that stand in your way. The more realistic you are now, the better.
