SUPER CROSSWORD: CHOW TIME
LEO (July 23 to August 22) Now
that you’re back enjoying the spot-
light again, you should feel re-en-
ergized and ready to take on the
challenge of bringing those big, bold
plans of yours to completion.
VIRGO (August 23 to September
22) A former friend would like to re-
pair a relationship you two once en-
joyed. Your positive response could
have an equally positive impact on
your life. Th ink about it.
LIBRA (September 23 to October
22) Resist making impulsive deci-
sions. Stay on that steady course as
you continue to work out workplace
problems. Be patient. All will soon
be back in balance.
SCORPIO (October 23 to Novem-
ber 21) You might feel confi dent
about taking a promising off er, but
continue to be alert for what you’re
not being told about it. Don’t fret.
Time is on your side.
SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to
December 21) People dear to you
might be planning a way to show
appreciation for all you’ve done for
them. Accept the honor graciously.
Remember: You deserve it.
CAPRICORN (December 22 to

bothersome situations you’ve avoid-

AQUARIUS (January 20 to Febru-

favor. (Of course, you do.) But heed
advice from those close to you and
do nothing until you know for sure
what’s being asked of you.
PISCES (February 19 to March 20)
Your loving reassurance helped re-
vive a once-moribund relationship.
But be wary of someone who might
try to do something negative to
reverse this positive turn of events.

wonderful matchmaker who can
bring people together to form
long-lasting relationships.
