Horoscopes

Day 4

Aries: Today 3-3 splits offer better chances than finesses. Trust in the stars.

Taurus: Destiny comes to you as a woman in red — but don't get your hopes up, it's just the Queen of Diamonds.

Gemini: Resist the urge to stay in bed today. The sun will shine and you won't miscount anything.

Cancer: As Venus passes through your sign this month, you will feel a most unusual urge not to criticise partner.

Leo: Resist change. Be wary of your associates. After nightfall things may not be what they seem. Lucky colour, blue. Lucky flower, Gardenia.

Virgo: The stars predict that your lucky number this month is twelve. Try the Rule of Twelve for a change.

Libra: Today your partner's fidgeting is not indecision, but the awakenings of homicidal madness. Time to play very, very carefully.

Scorpio: The friendly dog that is often seen in the club car park hasn't been seen for quite some time. Your pondering what might have happened to it results in your misplaying a cold game contract. You feel that the dog may not be as friendly as you once thought.

Sagittarius: Only in the bar, after the last board has been played, will you realise that partner was wrong. A spade lead would not defeat the four heart contract on board 17, as he suggested. The post mortem is not over yet!

Capricorn: Old Mrs. Jennings is not the player she used to be, so in the name of charity it would be a nice idea to go easy on her and not pre-empt against her. Sadly, your stars indicate that you will not be in a particularly charitable mood this week, so fire away!

Aquarius: According to the stars, God isn't very impressed with you. Why you had to hear from the stars rather than the man himself is beyond me. I guess it's just a sign of the times.

Pisces: The stars are aligning in such a way as to ensure success! But is it for you, or your opponent?
