Horoscopes

ARIES (March 21-April 19): You may be caught up in material ambitions and unwilling to change your focus. A change of scenery could provide a fresh perspective.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You could become mindful of how shifts in the markets have altered your financial situation. It could be that you need to revise payment schedules or alter some plans for the future.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): You'll only make an awkward situation worse if you keep bringing it to everyone's attention. Concentrate on something more pleasant and the previous problem will fade from memory.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Spending the afternoon window shopping at the mall won't get the dishes washed, rug vacuumed or the bills paid. Spare time should be used wisely.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): You never really appreciate the value of something unless you are willing to take care of it.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Wanting and needing are two separate entities. This might be the right time to analyze your needs and compare them to your wants.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): When too many people put in their two cents the result may be so much noise that a very good financial idea may be overlooked.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): You might be at the top of the pecking order where financial security is concerned but you still can't afford to take a chance on shortcuts or risky investments.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Learning how to do things in a more efficient or technologically advanced way may speed things along.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): The more hands on the rope the easier it is to win a tug of war. A mountainous task can become a molehill when everyone pitches in.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You must pay bills and make obligatory social appearances just like everyone else. You really can't buy something you can't afford or ignore your obligations.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Do something to spruce up the house that will make you proud to cross your doorstep. Speak frankly with loved ones and make sure there aren't any issues that need to be addressed.

IF APRIL 1 IS YOUR BIRTHDAY: Reassess your finances and relationships during the upcoming four to six weeks while your judgment is at its best.
