FEATURES
AMBER WAVES BY DAVE T. PHIPPS
SALOME’S STARS HOROSCOPE
ARIES (March 21 to April 19) You need to
be certain that all the right conditions are in
place before you take that first step. It can’t
hurt to listen to good advice from those who
have your best interests at heart.
TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Be careful
not to get involved in other people’s disputes
unless you know the facts behind the dis-
agreements. That’s the best way to be assured
of making wise and honest decisions.
THE SPATS BY JEFF PICKERING
GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) You still
need to be careful about how you’re going
to spend those energy reserves you finally
got around to restoring. Best advice: Avoid
overdoing it. Let things take their course.
OUT ON A LIMB BY GARY KOPERVAS
R.F.D. BY MIKE MARLAND
There’s a possibility that you haven’t been
told all the facts that you deserve to know.
SCORPIO (October 23 to November
21) Having confidence in your abilities is
important, especially when you could be
facing a new challenge, whether it’s in the
workplace or in a personal relationship.
Good luck.
SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to Decem-
ber 21) A new work-related opportunity
might not be all that it seems. Before making
any decisions, you might want to check with
others who have had some experience in that
area.
CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Your aspect
continues to favor travel -- alone or with that
special person. So if you’ve been putting off
making those getaway plans, it’s still a good
time to get started on them.
CAPRICORN (December 22 to January
19) A situation involving someone close
could benefit from your timely intervention.
Avoid being judgmental. There’ll be plenty
of time later for those “little talks” you like to
have.
LEO (July 23 to August 22) Those so-called
golden opportunities that continue to dazzle
the Lion still need to be carefully checked
out. Be suspicious about anything that looks
like the “perfect” prospect.
AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18)
Travel could be a surprise element in that
new project. Be prepared for other previous-
ly undisclosed aspects that also might come
to light as you proceed with the work.
VIRGO (August 23 to September 22)
Changes at the workplace could make it more
difficult to do things the way you prefer. But
the wise Virgo who shows some flexibility
could find it paying off in a big way.
PISCES (February 19 to March 20) Try to
balance your work-related responsibilities
with the time you’re spending on your re-
cently revived social life. An old friend might
be planning to return after a long absence.
LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) You
might want to check out the explanation you
were given for a sudden shift in your duties.
BORN THIS WEEK: Your sensitivity makes
you aware of the needs of others. Have you
considered a career as a counselor?
