THE NEW TANNER THURSDAY, JANUARY 7, 2010 12 ARIES - Mar 21/Apr 20 Youre no shrinking violet this week, Aries. Command- ing attention wherever you go, others are drawn to your magnetism. Enjoy the ego rush. TAURUS - Apr 21/May 21 A change in events leaves you flustered, Taurus. However, you quickly rebound and get with the program. Lady luck is on your side this Thursday ... and youll need it. GEMINI - May 22/Jun 21 A situation that seemed hope- less at first really has a few more possibilities than you anticipated, Gemini. All you needed to do was open your eyes a little further. CANCER - Jun 22/Jul 22 Too much of a good thing can end up being not so good, Cancer. Avoid the temptation to over-indulge in whatever you do this week and for the few hereafter. LEO - Jul 23/Aug 23 Sometimes others are scared away by your scary-sounding roar, Leo, and they dont get close enough to realize youre really soft-hearted inside. VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22 This week you find out that things you expected to go so smoothly really wont go accord- ing to plan at all. Stop living in the past, Virgo and accept your new future. LIBRA - Sept 23/Oct 23 A few remarkable things pop up later in the week that take you by surprise. One of them is where your relationship is head- ing, Libra. You may need to give that consideration. SCORPIO - Oct 24/Nov 22 A seething temper needs to be kept in check, Scorpio, other- wise your vindictive side could come out to play. Breathe, focus and calm down as much as you can. SAGITTARIUS - Nov 23/Dec 21 Surprise visits are good on oc- casion, but no one appreciates a person who always pops in unan- nounced, Sagittarius. Next time around, give a little notice. CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan 20 Others question your motives be- hind a decision that seems odd. Perhaps you overreacted just a bit, Capricorn? Think about others feelings before you think about yourself. AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18 You are ready to make a luxury purchase, Aquarius, but are a lit- tle nervous to part with the cash. Youre in a position where you can splurge a little on something youll enjoy. PISCES - Feb 19/Mar 20 There are a lot of bright points to this week, Pisces, but for some reason youll focus in on the one dark spot.
