Salome's Stars: January 8
ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Events could inspire adventurous Lambs who are looking to make a major career or personal move. But as always, get all the facts before rushing into any sort of deal or commitment.
TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) What seems to be a great opportunity could cause even usually practical Taureans to ignore their inner caution cues. Best to move carefully to avoid falling into unseen traps.
GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Need a holiday now that the seasonal festivities are behind you? Good idea! Plan to go to someplace wonderful. You'll return refreshed and more than ready for a new challenge.
CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Progress continues to be made on that pesky workplace problem. Meanwhile, don't assume that a personal situation will work itself out. Best to get more involved earlier rather than later.
LEO (July 23 to August 22) Catnaps are definitely recommended for LEOs and LEOnas who had been going at a hectic pace over the holidays. Adding relaxation time to your schedule helps restore your overdrawn energy reserves.
VIRGO (August 23 to September 22) Sure, some of the new friends you made during the holidays might move out of your life at some point. But at least one might show significant "staying power" with some encouragement.
LIBRA (September 23 to October 22) Encourage family members to join you in supporting a relative who could be facing a difficult emotional challenge in the New Year. Showing your love and concern helps keep this person's hopes up.
SCORPIO (October 23 to November 21) While a long-deferred decision might suddenly take on some urgency after news on a related matter, you still need to weigh all the factors carefully before deciding one way or the other.
SAGITTARIUS (November 22 to December 21) This is a good time to reassess the earlier plan you made for the New Year. Some elements you felt you could depend on to make it work might no longer carry this assurance.
CAPRICORN (December 22 to January 19) Forming a renewed connection with a former associate is only the first step toward working out your new plans. Be prepared for problems and deal with them as soon as they arise.
AQUARIUS (January 20 to February 18) A romantic situation that was going smoothly not too long ago might take a new turn. Be honest about your feelings before you decide whether to follow it or take another path.
PISCES (February 19 to March 20) The wise PISCES (that's you, of course) will make sure that everyone knows your plan to keep your options open and will listen to all sides of the situation before making any decisions.
BORN THIS WEEK: Your honest approach to life and living is always an inspiration for others who are fortunate enough to know you.
