HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Thursday, April 25, 2019:

This year provides many unique opportunities. Your innate conservative approach keeps you from taking a leap of faith. You feel more comfortable, yet you are less likely to achieve long-desired results. If single, you might meet someone very different who opens your eyes to a unique perspective. Travel is likely, if attached. The two of you gain from a change of scenery. CAPRICORN could be too much of a stick in the mud for your taste.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Your instincts tell you which way to go with a financial investment. You know what will work, though the end results might not be great. A discussion with an expert encourages you to revise your thinking. Tonight: Up late.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): A discussion with a friend makes you smile. A long-term wish might be about to fulfil itself. Do not erect a barrier between you and another person who often gives you solid advice. Rather, listen carefully to a suggestion. Tonight: Where you can hear good music.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): What you hoped was a possibility might not come through. Investigate your options before you commit to any course of action. A partner or associate might be unusually tense financially. Relax and move forward on your own. Tonight: Work as a team.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): You could be stunned by what another person thinks and expects. You might not be comfortable with his or her request, yet you might say “yes” because bonding with this person is important to you. Be careful, as the tale might not turn out as you want. Tonight: Allow others to dominate.

LEO (July 23-Aug 22): You might have a lot on your mind that you want to accomplish. Stay steady, knowing your ultimate goal. Do not take another’s need to disappoint you too seriously. Recognise your limits and how far you are willing to flex. Tonight: Let the party go on.

VIRGO (Aug 23-Sept 22): Zero in on what needs to be done. You have the energy and creativity to accomplish much more. You like a challenge every so often. Do not allow a great idea to go to the wayside because you would prefer to fuss or nitpick. Tonight: Make the most of the moment.

LIBRA (Sept 23-Oct 22): Pace yourself and do not allow yourself to lose the beat. You will be much happier at the end of the day when you get to see how much you accomplished. A situation changes rapidly. Touch base with a neighbour or relative who often gives you important feedback. Tonight: Anchor in.

SCORPIO (Oct 23-Nov 21): Make it OK to drag a little, especially if you are overwhelmed by all that you need to accomplish. Put your best foot forward and simply decide to get as much done as possible. Others reconsider their priorities. Tonight: The only answer is “yes.”

SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22-Dec 21): You are lively and concerned with what might be happening around you financially. You have reason to ask some heavy questions and expect to get some equally meaningful responses. Do not allow someone to corner you. Tonight: Keep to the budget.

CAPRICORN (Dec 22-Jan 19): Despite a sense of unease, you decide to follow your established plans. You might still be unusually slow in making a decision as you evaluate the benefits of trying different logic in eyeing a problem. Tonight: Reevaluating a present hassle.

AQUARIUS (Jan 20-Feb 18): Take your time making a decision. You might not be sure enough to take a stand, but this will soon change. You could be wondering about the best approach for changing your mood, revising your thinking and feeling much better. Tonight: Go for some extra R and R.

PISCES (Feb 19-March 20): You might be so focused on making a firm decision, you forget that perhaps you need to rethink a situation. In any case, a group of friends with very different ideas surrounds you. You could alter your thinking. Tonight: Make weekend plans.
