AMBER WAVES BY DAVE T. PHIPPS
SALOME’S STARS HOROSCOPE
ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Use that Ar-
ian charm to help make a difficult workplace

you might well be tempted to be more
extravagant than you should be at this time,

on enhancing your business prospects from
bona fide sources with good success records.
SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21)

AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18)
A personal matter takes an interesting turn.
The question is, do you want to follow the

VIRGO (August 23 to September 22)
One way to make your case for that pro-

Good luck.

to help you make your decision.
LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Be
careful about “experts” who have no solid
