CALIFORNIA'S OLDEST NEWSPAPER - EST. 1851
Volume 162 · Issue 59 | 99¢

Horoscopes, Tuesday, February 19

ARIES (March 21-April 19). A friend’s motives will come into question. Does this one really have your best interests at heart? Or is there a personal gain overshadowing the arrangement?

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You have a loose connection with hundreds of people, but you’re only tight with a few. The weak ties will be useful now, especially if you have something to sell or promote.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You’ll be involved in the maintenance and upkeep of something you own. This is no day at the beach, but at least it’s something you’ve been expecting. Keep thinking about the treat at the end.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). From time to time, your loved ones do get insecure, especially if you don’t return their calls promptly. Your speedy response will allay all fear and set a relationship on a better course.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’ll have the perfect reason to unleash your lion’s roar and make a difference. It’s not that your voice is so loud; it’s that it’s yours. Because of your royal status, your word makes a difference.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Your stance is stronger if you do not try to defend it. Assume that you have a right to feel the way you do, and go forward with conviction. Let the chips fall where they may.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You’ve been waiting for a response, and finally it comes. Today will deliver the consequences of a past action. It will likely be highly satisfying to finally close this loop.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). With your eyes closed, you will peer into the depths of your own being. The plunge you take feels honest and a little strange. This is a journey you will repeat often in the days to come.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You would love to experience spiritual illumination, but you’ll be happy to settle for a simple explanation of what is going on in your personal life. Friends have objective insights that help.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You’ll live and work in harmony with the same people who once posed a threat to your peace. It’s a sign of how far you’ve come. Your maturity helps you keep it all in perspective.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You may not be able to deliver what others want from you in the time frame they would most prefer. Name your terms. Everything is negotiable. Besides, you are worth the wait, and everyone knows it.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Staying on top of details will be challenging. Fall into a routine; create a system. Tonight, a harmonious outcome depends on how willing you are to see another person’s point of view.
