Indeed, to squander talents such as yours would surely be a tragedy -- and you mustn’t ever do less than what is possible in any given situation. You know how to communicate all manner of thoughts and ideas to all manner of people, and this talent may lead you to a career in the arts -- for what could be more communica- tive than that? SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 7 AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- Because of your native sensitivity, you may have trou- ble facing some situations, but you needn’t be ruled by current events. Seek shelter. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- You are not going to let yourself be defined by a single activity; you want to be considered well- rounded and capable -- and you will be! ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- How your work is received will depend a great deal today on the timing of your delivery, and the attitude you display in all interactions. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- You mustn’t be overly sentimental today; look at things the way they are, not the way you wish they would be. A certain mystery is solved. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- You’ll be dealing with a long shot today, but that doesn’t mean you have to lose anything in the process. You can and will play it safe. CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You’ve been given all you need to address a certain situa- tion in the right way. Take the time to get the lay of the land before you begin. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You understand better than most what is going on today -- or what will be soon. It’s time for you to take a more controlling stance, perhaps. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- What you see is not necessarily what you get today -- though you’ll certainly be tempted by appear- ances. You’ll soon embrace reality. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- You should be able to do all that you have sworn to do today, despite any difficulties that arise. You must establish a steady pace. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- The impossible is not about to stop you today, though you know full well that you cannot magically make it possible. Show off a little. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You must deal with things in a straightforward manner today -- or not at all. Any attempt to avoid key issues will only backfire on you. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- The more you rely on the plan you’ve made the more you’ll achieve today. Improvisation is not favored at this time, for good reason.
