Horoscope: March 17

Aries (March 21-April 19): You won’t say some of the things you are thinking, and later you’ll be happy you were so judicious.

Taurus (April 20-May 20): If you take time for planning, you’ll make a perfect plan. It’s perfect because it’s so flexible.

Gemini (May 21-June 21): Because you are such a fantastic listener, you will understand even those who communicate poorly. You will find a way to either help them or profit from them.

Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a puzzle that can be solved only through trial and error.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): You are affectionate toward loved ones. Others are secretly envious of the attention you lavish on your nearest and dearest.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): There is an element of intrigue, or perhaps even scandal, to the day’s events. There are always two sides to a story, and you can relate to both people involved.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Status is important to you, but it’s not your highest priority. You’re more concerned with the welfare of your loved ones, which is reflected in today’s activities.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): When you give the word, another person is either “in” or “out.”

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You will get the apology you have wanted to hear for some time now.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Your perspective may be off. Look at the big picture because it’s much lovelier than the small one. There’s too much focus being given to a minor, ugly detail.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You’ll overturn a verdict you made long ago. Things are different, and the more you experience the better you understand the difficulties of your past.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): You are able to control your emotions. Those who have less control will envy you. Tonight brings a romantic situation in which you’ll play your cards right.

Today’s birthday (March 17): You don’t need to change anything, and yet you will change things this year and have a terrific time. You’ll be a huge influence on others in April and could be the reason someone turns his or her life around. There’s a wedding in May. June features a reunion. October brings justice. Leo and Gemini people adore you. Your lucky numbers are 7, 14, 24, 2 and 18.
