You enjoy making connections between this, that and the other thing and coming up with new conclusions based on your thinking and learning -- and you look upon life as something of a puzzle to be solved rather than a journey to be taken. SUNDAY, JANUARY 31 AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- You’re going to have to work quickly today to get past a certain obstacle that threatens to derail you completely. Trust a friend. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- Undoing something that a friend or partner worked long and hard on may prove distressing -- but you’ll also find that it’s necessary. ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- You must be ready to absorb a little discomfort today as you tend to a troubling situation that was not of your making. Be strong! TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You may not get an immediate response to a certain query today -- but that will give you time to prepare for several possibilities. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You may have to take one step backward early in the day in order to take two steps forward later on -- but this is nothing out of the ordinary. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- The specif- ics of a certain situation trouble you more today than the overall situation itself. You are best to work on it from the inside out. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You are far more passionate about a certain project than any- one else on your team -- but that doesn’t mean you must bear every burden yourself. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- A problem solved today is one more you don’t have to address tomorrow -- so why wait? Even a partial solution puts you ahead of the game for now. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- What you do for entertainment’s sake is likely to be far more important to others -- and this is some- thing you must come to understand! SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- You have a sense of what’s to come, but no specific knowledge to back it up. You’ll have to wait, then, for others to jump on the bandwagon. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- The time has come for you to stop reacting to what is happening to you and start doing something about it. What’s really holding you back? CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You know full well what’s likely to happen to you if you continue along your current course -- but is that really what you want?
