20 Fun Your weekly dose of HOROSCOPE ARIES For a while there it seemed like nothing was getting done. Now, all of a sudden, you’re about to cross a bunch of things off your to-do list. Weird how sometimes everything just clicks into place at once. Your recent successes are going to motivate you to make even more ambitious plans for the future. Obviously, you are good at getting what you want. But that begs the question: What do you really want? Where are you going? Where do you want to go? This is going to be a week of exploration and of sharing wild ideas among friends. TAURUS A power struggle? Where did this come from? This is about the last thing you need right now. Some people take themselves so seriously. You don’t have the energy to compete with people’s egos, not right now. So early in the week you may find yourself giving in to someone, simply because you don’t feel like the battle is worth fighting. (And by the way, you’re right.) Share your frustrations with your friends. They’ll completely understand. And they’ll help you deal with it. Their humor is perfect for forgetting obnoxious people, and their loyalty to you is absolute. GEMINI You’re lost in the world of ideas on Monday. You’ve been thinking philosophically lately and reading some pretty smart books, and suddenly you don’t have a lot of time for reality TV. Don’t forget that you have a couple of pretty smart friends who would love a little intellectual banter now and again. Toward the middle of the week, you might not feel like getting into any big conversations, but this weekend you’re going to want nothing more than to see your friends and talk for hours and hours. CANCER This kind of friction is totally normal. This is what happens when a bunch of people sit down to work on something together. Naturally, there are some differences of opinion. None of it is personal. Keep that in mind. As you all figure out what to do next, don’t be afraid to think a little outside the box. Sometimes the craziest ideas are also the best ones. And don’t rush. You have all the time in the world. This weekend — especially on Sunday — do something to distract yourself. Organize a dinner party and invite a couple people you hardly know. Make things interesting. LEO You never expected this would explode into a conflict, but that seems to be what’s happening. Someone has a bruised ego. And that’s never a pretty thing to deal with. It might be a good idea (just for the sake of your own sanity) to lay low. Do your own thing. Do some research. Listen to what other people have to say. There’s no sense in bringing your own ego into the mix, and if you play it cool for awhile, you’ll have so much more leverage later on. VIRGO You’re ready for a change. Your old system just isn’t cutting it anymore. You’ve outgrown your old ways. And without being organized, you tend to go nuts. So, get organized. Figure out how to keep your life in order and you’ll be so much happier. The great thing about being in a self-improvement mode is that it makes you a lot more patient with other people, too, and a lot more open to having fun. Coworkers getting on your nerves? Worry not. You have some vacation time coming your way, and some pretty exciting ideas about how to spend it. JUST FOR LAUGHs “So let me get this straight,” the prosecutor says to the defendant. “You came home from work early and found your wife in bed with a strange man.” “That’s correct,” replies the defendant. “Upon which,” continues the prosecutor, “you took out a pistol and shot your wife, killing her.” “That’s correct,” replies the defendant. “Then my question to you is,” demands the prosecutor, “why did you shoot your wife and not her lover?” “It seemed easier,” the defendant says, “than shooting a different man every day!” LIBRA Whoa, you have a ton of energy. You’re in the mood to have fun, and so are the people around you. (It’s nice when everyone’s on the same page, isn’t it?) The only downside to being social, to having so much going on, is that it’s hard not to be distracted by it. There’s a lot going on at work, too, and follow-through is more important than ever right now. Still, you’re great at building relationships, and some of your coworkers are becoming pretty good friends, too. No wonder you’re doing so well. This weekend, your mood is just going to get better and better. SCORPIO What’s going on at home? The rest of your life is smooth sailing, but something at home is throwing your mood out of whack. Is a neighbor getting on your nerves? Has the heater given out? Are you desperately in need of a plumber? As soon as you fix whatever’s going on at home, you’ll have nothing else immediate to worry about, and you can spend the latter half of the week consumed by romance. If you’re single, this might be a good time to initiate something more serious. If you’re already serious about someone, just enjoy yourself. Sunday should be particularly exciting. SAGITTARIUS Monday is a great day to talk to strangers. You have so much more in common with other people than you realize, and you’re a great conversationalist. So why be shy? You’re going to spend the entire week listening and talking to other people, and you’re going to have a blast. On Saturday, someone is going to have a kind of loony idea, and the sheer lunacy of it is going to thrill you. Do whatever they have in mind. Take a risk. Have fun. It’ll make you feel like a kid again. TIMEPASS CAPRICORN You’d love to have all the money in the world, but you’re not sure that this new money-making scheme is all it’s cracked up to be. Sounds a little risky. Instead of shaking on it right now, maybe you should take a couple more days to think it over. Ask a friend who knows a thing or two about finance for some advice. And, in the meantime, spend some time doing something creative. Paint something. Write a song. Whatever. There are all kinds of ways to enjoy life without putting a dent in your wallet. AQUARIUS Monday is going to be the best day you’ve had in a long time. And, Tuesday won’t be too shabby either. Why this sudden stroke of good luck? Well, it’s not exactly luck. A lot of it has to do with your natural ability to enjoy the company of others. You are funny and persuasive, and the world responds well to those qualities in a person. Among your friends, you are kind of a sage these days. That explains why, this weekend, people will keep coming to you for guidance and advice. PISCES You wish you could help everyone. You wish you could solve the world’s problems. But you’re only one small person in a giant crowded world, and you shouldn’t beat yourself up over not being all-powerful. People adore you and admire your idealism. And the more you do things to help other people, the more you learn about yourself. (Of course, there are still some mysteries out there, some things you don’t know enough about yet, but you’re open-minded and willing to learn.) On Sunday, take the day off and relax. Make dinner. Listen to music. Let your mind wander. Wife is busy packing her clothes. Man: And where are you going? Wife: I’m moving to my mother. Husband also starts packing. Wife: And where do you think your going? Husband: I’m also moving to my mother. Wife: And what about the kids? Husband: Well if you are moving to your mother and I’m moving to my mother then I guess they must also move to their mother....
