Horoscope: Jan. 28

Aries (March 21-April 19): You want what is reasonable to achieve. It is likely you’ll see your expectations met.

Taurus (April 20-May 20): You apply your skill and dedication to a job. If you want credit for this, you’ll also need to publicize it.

Gemini (May 21-June 21): Avoid anyone who seems indecisive or out of control. It’s not your day to save the world or change another person’s destiny.

Cancer (June 22-July 22): You’re in the mood to take a risk. You’ll likely trade a degree of stability for the chance to win at a competitive level. Libras and Aquariuses are worthy contenders.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): You want people to notice you for your work, not for how you look. Still, these style choices contribute to an impression that affects how your work is received.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You’ve been working toward an outcome in your personal life, though you may have been doing so subconsciously. If so, you will now be aware of your agenda.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): It’s not pessimistic to be pragmatic. You’ll feel more positive about your arrangements if you’re sure about what you’re signing.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Make sure everyone understands what you need. Friends who are just there to help could have the opposite effect if not well managed.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You’ll be grateful for a less-than-perfect aspect of your past. If it never happened, you would not have developed your best traits.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You’ll be aware of the influences and beliefs that people subscribe to, and this will affect your own choices.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): There is someone who is influential in your life now, and you tend to schedule yourself around this person’s needs. But be mindful of your sacrifice.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): There’s a precious reward hanging in the balance. The problem is, there is also a maze you must maneuver to reach the goal.

Today’s birthday (Jan. 28): You don’t have to decide between two exciting options: You can have them both. By the end of February, you’ll feel you’re doing what you were born to do. You’ll be an ambassador and bring about positive change in March. May brings style upgrades. Leo and Scorpio people shower you with blessings. Your lucky numbers are 5, 25, 39, 16 and 52.
