Horoscope: Feb. 4

Aries (March 21-April 19): Today, you won’t exactly be doing battle, but you will have an opponent, and you should listen carefully to decipher truth from fiction.

Taurus (April 20-May 20): You will enjoy working with others and will seek activities that put you in public favor. It’s not because you need to be liked, but because you are liked and desire to build on that foundation.

Gemini (May 21-June 21): If you ask a question that seems deep and complicated, you will likely get a very simple, practical reply.

Cancer (June 22-July 22): Why does the one who is in charge seem to be very discombobulated? Perhaps it’s an act, or maybe this person really needs someone as organized as you to step up.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): There is someone who makes a lot of noise. It’s as though you’re on a road trip with this person and he or she is the only one who has access to the radio dial.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You now have an incentive to finish your work. You want to get it done so you can move on to a new interest.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): You would love to frolic with the free spirits, but you’re far too practical to leave your grounded place in reality.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): It’s not that others don’t appreciate you. They just don’t know how to show you.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You have a stronger idea about how a relationship should go, and it will take the other person a while to catch on.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): There are things that are more important to you than your leisure time, though you’re not concerned with them now.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You have mixed feelings about a business venture. If you don’t make a decision before the week is over, you will still be fine.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): In order to hold on to your identity and lead life the way you want to, you will have to say no to someone. The first time is always the hardest, and you are made stronger by the effort.

Today’s birthday (Feb. 4): You accept big changes as a challenge and will be graceful in your handling of them. You take initiative in a relationship this month to great effect. In May, you’ll go against a trend and make money. Pisces and Sagittarius people think you’re amazing. Your lucky numbers are: 30, 1, 24, 38 and 27.
