Aries (March 21-April 19)

The workload is heavy on Monday, but the party flag is flying by Tuesday. Your luck has just changed for the better, which should be obvious on Wednesday. Don’t get too rowdy that night, however. The headache you’d have on Thursday morning would be just awful. Watch for bargains and profitable opportunities late Thursday and Friday. Travel is forecast for this weekend. The only problem on Saturday is that you can’t take everybody with you. Your reaction to an unexpected event on Sunday lets you know you’re on the right path.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Get your lovin’ in early on Monday. The work pace picks up, and on Tuesday you’ll be racing at full speed with all the other rats. Avoid an attractive distraction on Wednesday. If you don’t watch where you’re going, you could run into something. Avoid a person who’s all talk and no action on Thursday, to save valuable time. Be flexible on Friday; it’s likely there’ll be a change in your plans. The urge to splurge will be hard to fight this weekend. Get a high-quality item after which you’ve long lusted, and your buyer’s remorse should be minimal.

Gemini (May 21-June 21)

Detailed work flows on Monday, so push yourself to get it all done. There’s a mess-up regarding a romantic appointment mid-Tuesday, but you’re in for a pleasant surprise later that evening. That would also be a good time for you to pop the question, if you have one to ask. Circumstances beyond your control could interfere with your love life on Wednesday. Just save up your money, and you’ll get a chance to spend it on Thursday. Collaborate closely with a co-worker Friday, and a difficult assignment will be fun. Do what your partner suggests on Saturday. That’s the partner you can trust completely, of course. Visiting friends together on Sunday should prove interesting. You might even want to take notes.

Cancer (June 22-July 22)

Remember to do the errands you promised on Monday, and you’ll be nicely rewarded. You’d like to sleep in on Tuesday, but your partner and/or your boss have other plans. Something needs to be done at home on Tuesday and Wednesday. If you don’t already know what it is, your roommate will be glad to tell you. By Thursday you’re ready for an outing, but it may be late before you can get away. It’ll be easier to get your chores done Friday, and then you can make a break for it. On Saturday the other person has the first serve, so take care. The more you aim to please on Sunday, the more likely you’ll win the game.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Shop for bargains on household items as much as you can on Monday. You might find the perfect thing at a great price on your lunch hour. If quality and style are more important to you than price, you can wait until Tuesday. If you and your mate can’t agree on Wednesday, stall. Odds are good you’ll find an alternative on Thursday that neither of you had considered. Don’t get depressed if a scheme you try Friday simply doesn’t work. It’s more complicated than that, so do more research and studying over the weekend. Save plenty of time for fun and games, too. Your favorite playmate has a few surprises in store for you.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

You’re apt to be the one who finds the answer on Monday. Keep digging, your chances are better than anyone else’s. Financial rewards could be yours on Tuesday or Wednesday. The money’s a result of your willingness to get rid of something that’s cluttering up your private space. Something you find on Thursday could change the way you do your work. It might even change where you work, if necessary. Frustrations on Friday could have you checking the want ads. Don’t leave one paycheck before you have another one lined up. If you’re thinking of relocating, this weekend will be perfect. Or, just have a party at your place. Looks like there’s lots of chaos there anyway — might as well enjoy it.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23)

You could be faced with a load of overdue chores on Monday. Don’t panic, just take them one at a time. Put them in order of importance. Your energy level’s high through Tuesday and Wednesday, and you’re getting smarter. You’ll find that a task that was daunting before is starting to become almost easy. Don’t get cocky, though. Thursday and Friday are fraught with peril. You may even be too tired to go out on Friday night. Schedule your romantic interlude for Saturday instead. Choose a date who’s stimulating intellectually as well as otherwise, and you’ll have a weekend to write home about.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21)

A friend can help you make an important connection on Monday. Go ahead and ask for the favor. Knowing which button to push helps you find the resources you need on Tuesday and Wednesday. Pushing them takes tact, and perfect timing, both of which you have in abundance. A mess at home could throw you off stride on Thursday — temporarily. Stay alert; you’ll get another opportunity to score. Things are not as they appear to be on Friday. Don’t say much, you could find out later that you were talking to the wrong person. Saturday’s good for losing a wager, or spending too much at the stores. Ixnay on gambling, too. Sunday’s better for fixing up your place, but don’t stay up late. You’ll need your beauty sleep by then.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Don’t snap back at a critical older person on Monday. If you simply say, “”Yes, SIR!”” or ma’am, whichever the case may be, you’ll increase your profits instead of losing your job. Tell the whole story to your friends on Tuesday, and they’ll give you lots of sympathy. Don’t let them solve your problem for you on Wednesday, though. That would be too expensive. Let them inspire you, and maybe teach you how to do it yourself on Thursday. Keep a low profile on Friday. Listen instead of telling what you know, and you’ll discover an error before you make it. The ball’s in your court over the weekend. Partying with neighbors and siblings would be perfect. Don’t spread gossip you’ve recently heard, however. Check it out carefully by asking a friend who would know on Sunday.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Looks like the coast is clear on Monday if you want to try something slightly dangerous. Your friends will be glad to help, so you won’t be alone. If you’ve been keeping a secret, be ready to confess it on Tuesday or Wednesday. It’ll come out around then anyway, so if you mention it first, you’ll look better. Don’t bother to ask for a raise on Thursday or Friday. You’re more likely to get a cut in your pay, or lose a client. Some of the things you learn over the weekend could help you improve your income, though, so don’t worry about it.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

If you have all the facts and figures, you could benefit quite nicely on Monday. Don’t leave anything to chance. Travel’s appealing on Tuesday and Wednesday, but not a good idea. Take care of obligations instead. You’re likely to clash with an older person Wednesday night or Thursday. This person is saying your dreams are unrealistic. Don’t let that stop you. Dreams don’t have to be realistic anyway. Don’t hurt yourself by trying to push a square peg into a round hole on Friday. You’d be wise to play with a team, or bet on one, over the weekend.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Your partner’s got all the angles figured out on Monday, so just go along with the program. A long-distance contact on Tuesday could lead to a better job if you’re interested. If money’s tight on Tuesday, maybe it’s time to go looking. Don’t tell any work-related secrets on Wednesday, especially about the boss. He or she is apt to find out on Thursday or Friday, and would not be amused. Your priorities are constantly shifting this weekend, so stay flexible. An older person wants to take control, but may not have the route figured out quite yet. Give helpful hints.
