CAPRICORN You may be faced with an important deci- sion that will transform your daily life in the long term. You will also seriously con- sider an interesting project for you and your partner. AQUARIUS There is sure to be lots of action at the office, and you will have many details to take into consideration. You will have to adjust to a few changes that will material- ize rather suddenly. PISCES One thing is certain: you are always the one that others call on when they need help. Your generosity is legendary, and you’ll enjoy the opportunity to demon- strate this once again.
