12 c a r i b b e a n t i m e s . a g Wednesday 22nd February 2017 Today’s weather forecast Antigua and Barbuda Generally sunny despite a few afternoon clouds. High - 80ºF Low - 70ºF Wind: North West 5 mph Sunrise 6.29 am; Sunset 6.11 pm Tuesday’s Crossword Solution HOROSCOPE PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). It’s a day to read and learn. Social topics, in particular, will be lucky to know about. They’ll also be as exciting to read up on as any fiction, because this learning paves the way to new adventures. ARIES (March 21-April 19). Not only is it natural to feel defensive around people who have a history of socking you when you’re not expecting it: It’s advisable. Likely this has to do with the soft jabs of a loved one. Arms up; protect your head; duck and cover. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). There’s a point at which too much conversation clouds the meaning of things instead of making it clearer. While some seem committed to talking things to death, you jump in and fix it. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). It takes a confident person to risk being misunderstood and maybe that’s partly why you’ll do it. Plus, you’ll learn more from people who are dissimilar to you than from people with whom you have a great deal in common. CANCER (June 22-July 22). When things get a little more colorful and dramatic than is comfortable, be grateful for it. Were you to be limited to a very confined and unvarying society, you would be quickly bored to tears. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Discipline is just not something you easily come up with on your own right now. Enlist the help of a coach, a champion or a supportive friend. Not only will you get results; you’ll feel loved in the process. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Before you get into the mix, remind yourself of your purpose. While you’re at it, revel for a few minutes in what you’re all about. Because if you’re not sure of this, someone will come along and fill in the blanks for you. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Your big dream of the day may not be anything too spectacular; rather, it’s a small personal accomplishment or meaningful exchange that drives you to work deliberately and connect warmly with others today. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Don’t be surprised if, when you sit down to make a positive plan of action, negativity comes first. Work through the grievances. Once you give them airtime, they’ll go away. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Fun-loving people are the best when fun is chief on the agenda. What about when it’s not? If their love of fun is stronger than their love of doing the job at hand, trust your instincts and get the right person for the job. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You’re an artist. This doesn’t always present itself in the way some people think about creativity, but there are so many ways to turn life into a beautiful experience. That’s what you’ll chase today. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Sameness leads to staleness. Seek variety and diversity. It takes an effort to mix things up, and you’ll probably meet with resistance from those more fearful than you. Do it anyway. Everyone will be better for it.
