TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) It’s
not easy to bring order to a chaotic
situation, whether it’s in the work-
place or at home. But if anyone can
do it, you can. A pleasant surprise
awaits you by week’s end.
by Dave T. Phipps
GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Be
careful that you don’t make an
upcoming decision solely on the
word of those who might have their
own reasons for wanting you to act
as they suggest. Check things out for
yourself.
by Jeff Pickering

personal relationship that seems to

some surprising revelations.

SUPER CROSSWORD: ADD CAMPAIGN
LEO (July 23 to August 22) Th at un-
expected attack of self-doubt could
be a way of warning yourself to go
slow before making a career-chang-
ing decision. Take more time to do a
closer study of the facts.
VIRGO (August 23 to September
22) A workplace problem needs
your attention, now, before it dete-
riorates to a point beyond repair. A
trusted third party could be helpful
in closing the gaps that have opened.
LIBRA (September 23 to October
22) A recent family situation could
give rise to a new problem. Keep
an open mind and avoid making
judgments about anyone’s motives
until all the facts are in.
SCORPIO (October 23 to Novem-
ber 21) Rely on your always-sharp
intuition to alert you to potential
problems with someone’s attempt
to explain away the circumstances
behind a puzzling incident.
SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to
December 21) Although you still
need to do some snipping of those
lingering loose ends from a past
project, you can begin moving on to
something else.
CAPRICORN (December 22 to
January 19) With your self-confi -
dence levels rising, you should feel
quite comfortable with agreeing to
take on a possibly troublesome, but
potentially well-rewarded, situation.
AQUARIUS (January 20 to Febru-
ary 18) Travel is favored, both for
business and for fun. Th e end of the
week brings news about an upcom-
ing project that could lead toward
that promised career change.
PISCES (February 19 to March 20)
You might feel suddenly over-
whelmed by a fl ood of responsibili-
ties. But if you deal with each one in
its turn, you’ll soon be able to hold
your head above water and move
on.
BORN THIS WEEK: You have a
wonderful way of off ering comfort
as well as guidance. You would do
well in the healing arts.
