STAR SIGNS
A DAILY CROSSWORD
WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER
9, 2015
ARIES (Mar. 21-Apr. 19): Put
your money to work for you.
Whether as a tool or a weapon,
your cash can make things happen for you. When it comes
to making important decisions,
you should follow your first
instincts.
TAURUS (Apr. 20-May 20): Look
for inspiration. Find something
or someone that tickles your
fancy to give you the emotional boost to create something
wonderful. Appraise situations
realistically.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20):
Think before you speak.
Choose your words carefully,
especially when among those
you don’t really get along with,
as an inadvertent slip of the
tongue could make you out to
be the bad guy.
CANCER (June 21-July 22): Pick
up your own tabs. Someone
may offer to pay your way,
but rest assured there will be a
price tag in the end. You’ll find
that you function better when
traveling in a pack.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Keep
them all smiling. Use your wit
and charm to your advantage
and you’ll have no trouble selling your wares to the world.
There’s no need to put on airs
or make wild exaggerations.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Don’t
put all your eggs in one basket.
You need to find a way to budget your time among business,
family and friends.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22.): You
can mix business and pleasure
if you find the middle ground.
Being a bit casual could loosen up a business meeting, but
avoid overdoing it and keep
things professional.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21):
There’s strength in numbers.
You’ll do well to surround
yourself with like-minded people. You can make significant
progress by making sure everyone is working toward the
same goal.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.
21): Keep your mind on the task
at hand. You may have a tendency to daydream about a significant other or leisure plans,
but responsibilities come first.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19):
Knowledge is worthless unless
you understand what it means.
Don’t take foolish action based
on an irrelevant tidbit of information until you’ve done some
research.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18):
Don’t beat around the bush.
Mincing words when trying to
avoid a particular issue could
create friction or confusion.
Say exactly what you mean or
nothing at all.
PISCES (Feb. 19-Mar. 20): Great
minds think alike. Keep your
boat afloat by staying in close
touch with those whose enthusiasm and optimism inspire
you to achieve greatness.
IF SEPTEMBER 9 IS YOUR
BIRTHDAY: Get ready to make
a big splash during the next
three to four weeks. You’ll find
that anything that’s good for
you will be accomplished easily
in October. Any opportunities
that come your way should be
embraced wholeheartedly.
