Horoscope
You need to be money-conscious this year. Draw up a strict budget and stick to it. Set aside a small amount each month to save. By this time next year, you may be able to plan a special vacation or make the home improvements you’ve been yearning for.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — Caution is key. Make sure you play by the rules. Being caught off-guard will end up costing you. Stick to the basics in order to lessen your stress.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) — Think fast and prepare to defend your actions. A person you thought was on your side will end up disappointing you. Cover your back and take care of business yourself.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) — You will tire quickly if you try to keep up with everyone else. Take care of your responsibilities and let others do the same, and you’ll do just fine.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Temptation will be your downfall. If you can’t afford something, don’t buy it. Putting yourself in a compromising financial position will only invite trouble. Be vigilant regarding your health.
