Horoscope for Feb. 9, 2010

By Holiday Mathis

February 9, 2010

Aries (March 21-April 19): You have the wisdom that experience can bring, but you're also willing to try new things and adopt a fresh mind-set.

Taurus (April 20-May 20): Write down everything that's on your mind. Once you get it down on paper, you can organize your priorities.

Gemini (May 21-June 21): An optimist can manage the unknown well, imagining it might be more wonderful than anything known. That's why you'll take a leap of faith today.

Cancer (June 22-July 22): If you try to escape from a problem, it will chase you. When you think you've lost it, it will crop up when you least expect it.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): You're casual, yet serious. You will stay on task mostly, chatting just enough to keep the vibe pleasant.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You're surprised by your own zany moves. Perhaps they won't make sense, but do not be quick to categorize them as mistakes.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Did you ever walk into a room and realize you no longer knew what you came in for? That's how you feel about a relationship today.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Long ago you used the word "never," and look at you now. Your sophistication has led you here and will take you to exciting places.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Life gets sweet just as soon as you ban all sarcasm and meanness from your repertoire.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You'll make something out of nothing. You'll astound others with your ability to do this.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You won't have to fight for respect. It will be given to you automatically.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): You are in the perfect place to follow your curious mind, gathering facts and experiences along the way.

Today's birthday (Feb. 9): You'll recommit to honing your talents this year. You'll learn from friends and work with loved ones over the next 10 weeks. You'll create something truly useful and perhaps employ others in May. Aries and Libra people adore you. Lucky numbers are 8, 19, 32, 17 and 50.
