LIBRA (September 23 to Oc-
tober 22) Private and profes-
sional matters compete for your
attention. Be honest in your
assessment of which should get
more of it, and for how long.
SCORPIO (October 23 to
November 21) A seemingly
endless list of must-do tasks is
best handled by tackling them
one by one, and taking ener-
gy-restoring timeouts between
each job.
SAGITTARIUS (November
22 to December 21) A vexing
relationship seems destined to
deteriorate no matter what each
side tries to do. A third party’s
advice just might prove helpful.
• Homes
• Farms
• Commercial
• Build to Suit

22 to January 19) Reach out
to ease any tensions caused
by home or workplace pres-
sures before they threaten the
relationship-building progress
you’ve made.
AQUARIUS (January 20 to
February 18) You oft en go out
of your way to show kindness to
others. So, don’t be surprised if
other people want to do some-
thing nice for you this week.
PISCES (February 19 to March
20) People in your life respect
your Piscean wisdom, so don’t
hesitate to speak up about a
matter that you feel isn’t being
handled quite the way it should
be.

sonal warmth helps you make
friendships, and your sense of
fair play helps you keep them.
