Horoscope: April 11

Aries (March 21-April 19): You’re thinking big, and it will be more challenging to make the ends meet.

Taurus (April 20-May 20): It’s time to do something extra to get the respect you deserve. You sense that it’s time to refresh your look.

Gemini (May 21-June 21): You will play a game and play it well. Just be careful not to be so enthralled with your own process that you forget to assess the competition.

Cancer (June 22-July 22): A loved one will tell all without saying much. Listen with forensic intensity, and you’ll get the message.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): The need to win is a basic human personality trait. You will gain an edge by realizing just how much those around you want to win.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): It is difficult to listen to others tell you something you already know without communicating that you already know it.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): You are already interested in someone, and what you learn today will further intrigue you.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Avoid a loved one who is in a bad mood. If you interact with the person while he or she is feeling this negative, you will be associated with this state of mind.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You will be overtaken with fantasies about leaping off the grid and into a completely new realm. There is good information in this dream.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Sometimes you approach your work like a craftsman, and sometimes you approach it like an artist. Both ways are valid.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You command your space and maintain a cool front. Inwardly, you may not be quite as confident, and that’s only natural.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Like an expert at the poker table, you’ll tune into the nervous habits that others unconsciously project. You’ll use these clues to decide how to play your hand.

Today’s birthday (April 11): You’ll walk in emotional sunshine. Act on your hunches. Your financial picture brightens as a direct result. You’ll build on what you learned last year and move to more advanced professional levels. You’ll gain the trust and love of a dear soul in June. August brings release from a burden. Aries and Virgo people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 4, 1, 20, 41 and 18.
