SALOME’S STARS HOROSCOPE
R.F.D. BY MIKE MARLAND
ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Making
things more complicated than they need
to be can be a problem for the typically or-
derly Lamb. Try to look for a less intricate
way to accomplish the same goals.
AMBER WAVES BY DAVE T. PHIPPS
TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Avoid-
ing personal involvement in a troubling
situation might be advisable at this time,
especially since you probably don’t have all
the facts. The weekend brings a surprise.
GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) A problem
with a colleague you thought had been
resolved could recur. However, this time
you’ll be able to rely on your record to get
a quick resolution in your favor. Good
luck.
THE SPATS BY JEFF PICKERING
CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Giving your
self-esteem a boost could be a good idea
for the Moon Child, who might feel a bit
daunted by the week’s occurrences. Just
focus on all your positive accomplishments.
LEO (July 23 to August 22) The “mane”
attraction for the Lovable Lion this week
is -- what else? -- love. New relationships
move to new levels, while long-standing
partnerships are strengthened.

personal.
SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to De-
cember 21) Try to control that heated Sag-
ittarian temperament while dealing with
what you believe to be an unfair matter.
A cool approach is the best way to handle
things.
CAPRICORN (December 22 to January
19) Nursing hurt feelings could keep you
from learning what went wrong. Ask your
partner, a family member or a trusted
friend to help you reassess your actions in
the matter.
AQUARIUS (January 20 to February
18) Nature is dominant this week. Try to
spend time outdoors with someone spe-
cial. An act of kindness in the past might
be recalled by a person you believed was
out of your life.
VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) A
recent workplace problem will prove to be
one of miscommunication, and once the
matter is settled, you should have a better
chance of getting your proposals approved.
PISCES (February 19 to March 20) An
upcoming career decision could be based
on how well you might be able to apply
your artistic talents. Be sure to use the fin-
est samples of your work to make a strong
impression.
LIBRA (September 23 to October 22)

the dark with a matter that seemed to be
taking forever to resolve, you should soon

for others comes easily to you. You are
considered a good friend, even by those
you might hardly know.
