HOROSCOPES Today’s Birthday (04/21/14): Career and finances boom this year. Enjoy extra birthday relaxation this week. Communications, travel and intellectual studies increase profit during spring and summer. After August, home and family take priority. Harvest your garden. Real estate transactions and renovations go well. Creativity sparks beauty all around. Grow partnerships with steady, reliable attention. Treat yourself and others with love. To get the advantage, check the day’s rating: 10 is the easiest day, 0 the most challenging. Taurus (April 20-May 20) — Today is a 5 — Setting priorities becomes newly important with unexpected circumstances. Hold onto your valuables, and plan your next move. Tardiness will be noticed. Face to face works best. Enjoy the social buzz. Friends are dealing with changes. Balance physical work with social demands. All turns out well. Gemini (May 21-June 20) — Today is a 5 — You have more to manage at home than you may realize. It’s not a good time to travel. Circumstances have changed, and it works out for the better. There may be temporary confusion. Don’t throw your money around. Establish your leadership role. Wait. Cancer (June 21-July 22) — Today is a 5 — You may discover breakdowns with a partnership. Postpone expansion and travel for now. Others vie for your attention. Travel to an alternative work environment. Accept support from your team. Take it slow, and speak clearly. Simple misunderstandings can be worked out with patience. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — Today is a 5 — Don’t try a new idea yet. Lay low and keep your head down. Breakdowns in an alliance distract. Stay close to home and handle deadlines and urgencies. Avoid expensive suggestions. Make repairs, clarify miscommunications, or mollify someone’s hurt feelings. Do it for love, not money.
