You do things in a highly personal manner; you like to get close to things -- touch them, smell them, listen to them, and if possible, taste them. You harbor a not-so-secret love of all things culinary, and you are quick to learn lessons and put them to good use in your daily life. SATURDAY, JULY 23 LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You cannot expect to get through the day without taking a few knocks, but you are perfectly capable of giving as good as you get, to be sure! VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- You must gain just a little more ground today before you can say you’ve reached the goal you set for FRIDAY, JULY 22, 2022 yourself some time ago. You can do it! LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) -- Experience should serve you well today as you experiment with something that is in some ways over your head. You’ll learn very quickly. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) -- A positive attitude does more for you today than any attempt to outsmart the competition. An opportunity beckons -- and you’re ready. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- You must be sure that your priorities are in order today as you set out to climb one more hill. All must be ready when you come back down. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Someone may be trying to deceive you today, but they’re not likely to succeed so long as you remember you’ve been here before. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- Practice makes perfect today -- or nearly so. Once you have the confidence to go it alone, you’ll have many more important decisions to make. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) -- The damage 102 Public Notices Road Closure Forest road 73/Granite Hill Road will be closed due to construction activities from July 18th at 9:00 am through July 22 and from July 25 at 9:00 am through July 29.
