horoscope By Nancy Black Today’s Birthday (05/04/11) You’re in the zone for your birthday! You’ve got the power and know where to apply it. This is an excellent year for exercise, sports, play, and for exploring practical creative projects. Quick, tangible results will be the most rewarding. To get the advantage, check the day’s rating: 10 is the easiest day, 0 the most challenging.

Aries (March 21-April 19) Today is a 9. It seems easier to concentrate, and a solution to an old problem is becoming obvious. Allow those ideas to gel, and get opinions from experienced friends. Things come together.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) Today is an 8. Your friends are really there for you, and for the next two days you’ll want to go play with them. Why not? Clean up any messes and invite folks over. Let go of a scheme that lacks soul.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) Today is an 8. Changes seem abrupt to others. You seem to feed off of them. A friend provides spiritual direction. Practice increases skills. Listen and learn.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Today is an 8. Take your ideas for a walk. You’ll think of something brilliant, and your heart will thank you later. You don’t need to venture far. In fact, stay close to home.

Gemini (May 21-June 21) Today is a 7. You feel powerful and are ready to make positive changes. Your natural planning talents are primed, so let loose and invent. Then jump into action. Cancer (June 22-July 22) Today is a 9. Follow through on details for the next few days. Think out different options and make plans. Don’t travel yet. Manage your deadlines, and stay thrifty.

Tellers Wanted! Kent Credit Union has several part-time teller positions available in its 3 branch locations within Portage County. Ability to multitask in a fast-paced environment a necessity. Responsible for handling customer service issues and resolving promptly. Competitive salary offered. To apply, email cover letter and resume to jobs@ kentcu.com. No phone calls please.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Today is a 7. Business interferes with fun. You have to call the shots and decide what’s best. Trust your intuition. Calling for reinforcements may be a good idea now. Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Today is a 9. Transformation is right around the corner. Start researching ways to invest in your future. Save a windfall for a rainy day. You’re sharp with finances.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Today is a 7. Work with a partner, and share decisions. Find an antique treasure. Reject a far-fetched scheme in favor of a practical solution (even if you don’t know how yet). Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Today is an 8. Time to get to work. No more putting off what you’re committed to. Focus on making money, not spending it. Sort through the feelings as they arise. Chop wood; carry water. Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Today is a 9. A little surprise would be nice. Romantic odds are in your favor now. Make sure what you build is solid, rather than based on fantasy. Practice and play by the rules.
