HOROSCOPE Thursday, Jan. 12, 2012 Much of the preparation and all of the studying you’ve done over the past several years will be utilized to your advantage in your present field of endeavor. Don’t be surprised if the payoff is far larger than you anticipated. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Because you’ll instinctively know how to make life a fun game that attracts lots of other players, it’s likely that your influence over your peers will be rather remarkable. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) — Don’t get all in a dither over some big changes for you that are being engineered by other people. What they put together could be better than what you could do yourself. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) — Three pals of yours with whom you are very close might introduce some interesting new elements into your social life. You’ll find them fun and intriguing, as will they. ARIES (March 21-April 19) — There are more than a few opportunities hovering about that could benefit your career and finances. Don’t make light of them — squeeze out every last drop of potential. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) — If possible, give vent to your spirit of adventure and do something different. You could make what otherwise would be a boring routine into something scintillating. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) — Although you like joint involvements and you’re lucky with them, it’s important to avoid teaming up with someone who fails to grasp the adventurous nature of what you’re trying to do. CANCER (June 21-July 22) — Something good can be done to strengthen an appealing relationship. This alliance has the possibility of becoming more than just a friendship. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) — You’re in a financial cycle at the moment that can have propitious peaks as well as devilish lows. Right now, the sun is likely to be shining, so make plenty of hay while you can. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — No one will resent you stepping in and taking charge when they are struggling to keep their heads above water. In fact, they will greatly appreciate you saving them from drowning in their own financial turpitude. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — Everything is moving in your favor at the moment, so put the final touches on a matter that has been giving you fits; now’s the time to get it out of the way once and for all. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) — You have a marvelous ability to elevate the level of hopes, aspirations and expectations of those with whom you’re closely involved. Surprisingly, what benefits them will help you as well. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) — Major achievements are possible with both your career-related and financial affairs. Even if there are some connections between the two, treat each sphere individually. COPYRIGHT 2012 United Feature Syndicate, Inc.
