WEEK OF NOVEMBER 15,1979
AQUARIUS ? January 21 - February 19
You can make important gains now, provided you resist
impulsive moves. Popularity dips before the weekend, but
by Sunday you're top name on tne social roster. Romance
is on the upswing.
PISCES ? February 20 - March 20
A week of variety, featuring activity in work and social
environments. One of your work ideas is slated to win you
plaudits. Small financial setback is followed by a series of
gains.
ARIES ? March 21 - April 20
Until Monday, you're very concerned with love: friends
are loving, family members show new respect. Then,
ideas backfire and your mate becomes preoccupied.
Postponement possible Tuesday - Wednesday.
TAURUS ? April 21 - May 22
For health's sake, make balance your present keyword:
balance work with recreation, and balance diet. Unexpected
Qxpen^e may be required on Monday, meaning the

GEMINI ? May 23 - June 21

seems that stalled plans are very much back in motion.

event inspires you to look every bit as glamorous as you
feel.
LEO ? July 23 August 22

but you're too easily swayed by outside opinions. Longdistance
news on Monday is encouraging.
BIRTHDAY THIS WEEK
You manage to be the center of attention wherever you
are, you put your ail in everything, and you're sometimes
a little too hard and demanding on yourself. Year ahead
