Your Stars This Week | January 29th, 2017

The coming week will see many individuals digging deeply into their personal stores of energy and creativity in order to face and solve problems that are unique to the time as well as the individual. This means that effective help, while not impossible to come by, may be unusually difficult to find. So must one therefore go it alone? Not necessarily, for there are issues that can be tackled by a trusting partnership -- or even a larger team in some rare cases. The key is finding compatible creativity. No one wants to find him- or herself arguing over what the best idea or approach might be, especially if time is of the essence. Instead, it's likely that one individual must assume a leadership position.

The problems faced this week may be personal or business-oriented, but in all cases they will affect both areas simultaneously -- though not in identical ways. In fact, it may be virtually impossible to separate the personal from the professional in any practical sense. Home and office will surely be closely linked!

ARIES (March 21-April 4) -- Now is the time for you to present that unusual idea to friends or family. You can allay any fears by demonstrating your preparedness. (April 5-April 19) -- Others are likely to come to your aid as a matter of course, but take care you are not drowning in help!

TAURUS (April 20-May 5) -- You usually know just what to do when you are facing a certain key situation, but this week you may feel that you have to wing it. (May 6-May 20) -- A loved one tests your ability to improvise -- and, perhaps, compromise. Both of you want the same thing: mutual enjoyment!

GEMINI (May 21-June 6) -- You have been looking for just the right tools for a tricky job that must be done solo -- and they can be yours, for a price. (June 7-June 20) -- You've been relying a little too much on your ability to maneuver quickly, when in fact maneuverability may be hazardous.

CANCER (June 21-July 7) -- If you're trying to get a certain job done, you must follow all the steps. Now is no time to take shortcuts of any kind. (July 8-July 22) -- You're eager to add a little flair to an endeavor that has gotten far too routine of late. New opportunities give you what you need.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 7) -- You can take traditional methods and come up with something new and remarkable by infusing your unique style. Enjoyment abounds! (Aug. 8-Aug. 22) -- You may be feeling the pressure when someone else's pleasure depends on your ability to deliver the goods. You'll have more than one chance.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 7) -- You may choose to work at odd hours -- partially out of desire, and partially because your biological clock is out of whack! (Sept. 8-Sept. 22) -- Keeping yourself out of trouble is as easy as steering clear of those who are not telling you what's going on. Information provides safety.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 7) -- You can do what many cannot simply because you are more receptive to the kinds of input that experts are willing to give. (Oct. 8-Oct. 22) -- You want to do something impressive, but more because you need to feel good about yourself than because others require it.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 7) -- You mustn't deceive yourself about your motives. You know why you're doing something, and that must be good enough. (Nov. 8-Nov. 21) -- You may be champing at the bit as the week opens, but you can relax knowing that you'll enjoy more than one golden opportunity very soon.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 7) -- You're going to need tools of high quality in order to get the job done the way others are expecting. Spend money to make money. (Dec. 8-Dec. 21) -- You're in no mood for platitudes! Rather, you want to deal with realities that you can see, hear and experience firsthand.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 6) -- You're ready to make a commitment this week, when only last week you were afraid of any such steps toward permanence. What's different? (Jan. 7-Jan. 19) -- You may be angry with someone who has pointed out a weakness in your performance -- but isn't it true that you have no one to blame but yourself?

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 3) -- You may have to be unusually clever and flexible in order to face rapidly changing circumstances. A friend chimes in. (Feb. 4-Feb. 18) -- Some may misinterpret your eagerness as inexperience, but even an expert can be excited about what he or she is facing!

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 5) -- You may have to work with the timing in order to see that everything falls out in an optimum fashion -- but don't be too aggressive. (March 6-March 20) -- The quality of your work should win you praise, even from those who have been critical in the past. It's a good week!

The coming week will see many individuals embroiled in conflicts that are largely self-made. So, of course, the resolutions to those conflicts will need to be self-devised as well. When these problems can truly be solved may not be immediately clear, though there may be hints as to the path to take in order to render them short-lived. Ironically, some individuals may enjoy being at the center of these hot spots, but they will be few and far between. Most will find that prevailing difficulties are indeed difficult, and they will want to work toward lasting conclusions of all such situations as quickly as possible. It's important, therefore, for everyone to set their minds to conceiving solutions -- and know that even far-fetched or outrageous plans can prove valid.

It's a good week for all those considering dramatic changes on the relationship front to do and say what is necessary to get those changes started, for delays can become disappointing in the extreme. Yes, this means dealing with one thing on top of another during an already-trying week, but for some it's the only way real progress can be made.

ARIES (March 21-April 4) -- You'll want more of something that you've only recently been introduced to -- and you know just whom to ask. Don't be shy! (April 5-April 19) -- It's a good time for you to assert yourself in a new way. What you do early in the week can certainly pay off as expected later on.

TAURUS (April 20-May 5) -- You're following the activities of someone who has claimed to be a rival -- but you're more interested in working together if possible. (May 6-May 20) -- You may be able to reshape a current relationship to suit your needs more directly. Your ideas can certainly catch on before long.

GEMINI (May 21-June 6) -- You must be willing to put your plans into motion as soon as possible. Any kind of delay can put success at risk. (June 7-June 20) -- Your actions are likely to have far-reaching ramifications. Consider the needs of others.

CANCER (June 21-July 7) -- Should you, or shouldn't you? That's the question you'll be asking yourself throughout much of this busy week. (July 8-July 22) -- You can have a lasting influence on someone who shares your outlook and aspirations. Don't hold back as you demonstrate what's possible.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 7) -- You mustn't be ruled by the little things. Maintain your autonomy until something comes along that demands that you yield. (Aug. 8-Aug. 22) -- You may not find yourself in the position you had hoped for, but you can still get a great deal done. Don't fight it.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 7) -- You have what it takes to both begin and end a journey while remaining very busy. You can spread warmth and harmony everywhere you go. (Sept. 8-Sept. 22) -- You'll have a chance to fill any gaps and make sure that everything gets done on schedule -- and mostly under budget.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 7) -- Your popularity is on the rise, but are you being asked to pay too high a price? It may be time to challenge the popular view. (Oct. 8-Oct. 22) -- Your ability to keep several balls in the air at once will serve you well. It's the emotional issues you may find trickiest to juggle.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 7) -- You'll have the chance to take in something that you've only dreamed about for a long time. This week will be worth remembering! (Nov. 8-Nov. 21) -- You are eager to be understood, but you don't want to sacrifice anything significant toward that end. It matters whom you socialize with right now.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 7) -- What you hear early in the week will set you along a course that leads to discovery -- and a certain unavoidable danger. (Dec. 8-Dec. 21) -- What happens in the background makes the difference between success and even greater success. You know better than most what to lean on.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 6) -- You are eager to see things calm down a bit, which should happen toward week's end. Much depends on your attitude. (Jan. 7-Jan. 19) -- The "routine" may prove to be anything but. Be ready to step in for someone to direct how things are done.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 3) -- You may have trouble reconciling your scheduling with another's, but he or she may have to take priority for a few days at least. (Feb. 4-Feb. 18) -- Your ability to see what's coming may fail you for a time early in the week, which means you must be ready for anything later on!

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 5) -- You're not in the mood to cater to another's whims. You know where to draw the line; do so, and insist that boundaries be respected. (March 6-March 20) -- A change you've been working on for some time may have to be delayed, but it will never be far from your mind.

Your Stars This Week for January 15, 2017

Your Stars This Week | January 15th, 2017

The coming week will present many situations that pull individuals of all types in at least two very different directions at once. It may seem to some as if a war of sorts is being waged within -- desires will conflict with needs, and the heart and head will wage battle for dominance in situations that are volatile, emotional and of great importance in both the personal and professional spheres. Tough decisions will wait to be made as the week comes to a close, and how one thinks through all of his or her options will make the difference between a satisfactory outcome or one that wreaks emotional havoc -- though no option is likely to be completely painless. Indeed, many will be choosing the lesser of two very clear evils, so it may help to remember that support is available.

Where love is concerned, those who are willing to be firm and uncompromising stand the best chance of seeing things work out to their liking. Indeed, whoever unpacks his or her heart with the right words at the right time -- and to the right person -- can quite possibly have his or her heart's desire as the week comes to a close.

ARIES (March 21-April 4) -- Your attempts to rekindle a long-distance relationship will teach you something about what's possible -- and what you really want. (April 5-April 19) -- You're relying on the care of someone who is ultimately ill-equipped to care for anyone. It's time to look elsewhere for guidance.

TAURUS (April 20-May 5) -- A friend will get in touch and make a request that may catch you by surprise. Even so, it's not something you're unwilling to do. (May 6-May 20) -- You and a friend are onto something, but now may not be the time to reveal your plans. Be patient, and wait for a clear sign.

GEMINI (May 21-June 6) -- You and a partner have some details to sort out before you can set a new plan in motion. Something yet unsaid matters a great deal. (June 7-June 20) -- You are missing someone who, in the past, seemed to make things difficult for you. Now, he or she seems essential to your well-being.

CANCER (June 21-July 7) -- Your search for that "perfect something" is drawing to a close, and you're nearer to your heart's desire than you've ever been. (July 8-July 22) -- The time has come for you to commit to an idea you've been toying with for some time. A loved one gives you his or her full backing.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 7) -- You are more than qualified for a certain job or responsibility, but the powers that be are likely to look elsewhere. You must find out why! (Aug. 8-Aug. 22) -- You've been receiving a great deal of attention of late, but none of it for the reason you think. You'll get some unexpected news.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 7) -- A long period of uncertainty is drawing to a close. A loved one gives you permission to close out the week in a way that suits you to a T! (Sept. 8-Sept. 22) -- Now is the time to state your case to someone who has been willing to listen for quite some time. He or she can give you what you want.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 7) -- It's not unusual to find yourself navigating unfamiliar terrain, but this week that unfamiliarity may do something unusual to you. (Oct. 8-Oct. 22) -- The questions you ask will lead to discoveries that you've long anticipated, but certain details leave much to be desired.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 7) -- You may have to settle for an arrangement that is neither to your liking nor completely undesirable. You'll have to adjust. (Nov. 8-Nov. 21) -- You and a friend may finally come to an agreement about something that has long been a bone of contention between you.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 7) -- Now that all is said and done, you'll be able to look back and determine just what you could have done better -- and when. (Dec. 8-Dec. 21) -- You can do a great deal to avoid an unpleasant outcome, but take care not to rewrite the past in some intangible way!

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 6) -- You needn't overthink a key issue. The moment you decide on your course of action, get moving -- and don't be made to wait. (Jan. 7-Jan. 19) -- You can demonstrate unusual creativity when it comes to routine endeavors, especially in and around the home.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 3) -- Someone who figured prominently in key affairs early last year is likely to resurface and demand that you take action. (Feb. 4-Feb. 18) -- Someone is knocking at the door -- figuratively, at least. You'll want to see who's there, and what he or she wants, before opening it.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 5) -- What you admit to a loved one early in the week may be discovered by another party who desires to do you harm with the knowledge. Use caution! (March 6-March 20) -- You'll be sought out for your expertise in a certain area, but events toward week's end may still baffle you and others.
