Know when to say no. Your numbers are 4, 12, 18, 23, 30, 34, 42.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Social events, personal growth and physical fitness are favored, but before you set your sights on something, evaluate the emotional, financial and material costs involved.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Stifle your emotions, keep your plans to yourself and adjust your lifestyle to fit your needs. Taking on someone else’s fight will not solve your problems.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Focus on how you want things to unfold, and make it happen. Your perceptive determination will take you where you want to go and give you the platform to get others on board. Study information and educate others, and significant opportunities will transpire. 3 stars

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Participation will lead to exciting connections, but don’t let it break the bank. Cap what you will spend or donate before you get involved. An opportunity is only good if it will get you where you want to go. 3 stars

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Pay attention to what’s happening in the rearview mirror. Study the past, and you’ll make better decisions based on common sense and logistics. Use your voice to inform others of the truth and possibilities. Make changes that propagate trust, loyalty and respect. 4 stars

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): What you see is what you get. Don’t believe everything you hear. Ask questions, go directly to the source and make decisions based on what you see and experience. Don’t be a follower. Change what’s necessary. Make personal improvement a priority. 2 stars
