Your stars Jan. 29

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Surround yourself with supportive people. Donate time and skills to a cause that matters to you. Don't let anger stand between you and what you want. Handle others and situations gracefully, and you'll find a path forward. Discipline and patience will pay off. 3 starsTAURUS (April 20-May 20): A job change may tempt you, but get what you want in writing before switching. Time spent caring for someone else's responsibilities will leave you in a precarious position. Do your own thing and make changes that benefit you. 5 starsGEMINI (May 21-June 20): Don't believe anything or anyone without verification.

Don't follow the crowd; be smart and take the cost-efficient route. Choose to allow your intuition to maneuver you through a tempting proposal you encounter. Say no to others, and make decisions that favor you. 3 starsPISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): If you rely on intuition, you will figure out how to get what you want.
