College students seem to have a reliance on caffeine to get them through lectures and late night study sessions, but there are healthier alternatives to power through the day.

Horoscope: November 29, 2018

A baby born today has a Sun in Sagittarius and a Moon in Leo if born before 8:08 a.m. (ET). Afterward, the Moon will be in Virgo.

Happy birthday for Thursday November 29, 2018:
This year you make waves just because you can. When you focus on a goal, you might be difficult to stop. People who do not know you well often misread you. You are precise and detail-oriented, yet you also love a good risk. If you are single, this year could be the year you meet a life partner. If you are attached, the two of you seem to come to agreements only after you air out each of your points of view. VIRGO can be critical and fussy.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult


ARIES (March 21-April 19)

You can almost count on someone not understanding what you say. A great deal of activity could be triggered as a result of this miscommunication. A boss could be unusually distant or cold. Worrying won’t do you any good. Tonight: Clear out some paperwork and errands.


TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

When your creativity surges, you have little to be worried about. Today, you exhibit unusual imagination and have the ability to focus on whatever issue is at hand. You can’t seem to detach from a problem that has been quietly nagging at you. Tonight: Be naughty and nice.


GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

You could need some time to relax in order to stay on top of a situation. You might not see the logic of slowing down. Try a slower pace, at least for a day. Confusion surrounds your home. Do not be surprised if you are caught in the middle of a disagreement. Tonight: Be a couch potato!


CANCER (June 21-July 22)

Honor a fast change of pace. Several people are determined to find you, no matter what! Stop for a moment and listen to what each person is sharing. Slowing down and listening will help you to center yourself. Be more of an observer right now. Tonight: The less said, the better.


LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

You have good financial sense, which you often display. Of course, everyone enjoys letting go sometimes. Set limits on how far you will go with your spending. You have a lot of people you want to spoil and indulge this holiday season. Tonight: Buy some eggnog on the way home.


VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Your magnetism emerges. People don’t often see how talented you are. You tend to be modest and try not to toot your own horn. Understand that it’s OK to accept others’ praise from time to time. A child or loved one craves more of your attention. Tonight: Where the action is.


LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

You sense that a lot is going on behind the scenes. For now, just do your thing. Be receptive to others’ questions, and consider asking some of your own as well. Just remember to be subtle in your approach. Be aware of what is happening behind the scenes. Tonight: Among the crowds.


SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Emphasize the pros and cons of a situation that comes up in a meeting. If your reaction is very different from that of those around you, you might want to think through where you are coming from. Remember, everyone is entitled to his or her opinion. Tonight: Till the wee hours.


SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Pressure builds around your work or your community responsibilities. You might not be aware of how fussy you can get when you’re out of your element. You care about precision, yet you’re still adventurous and like to take risks. Tonight: Join friends for a fun time out.


CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

You detach with ease and understand much more of what is motivating you as well as those around you. You gain a strong perspective, which helps you interact with others. Touch base with someone who has very different insights from yours. Tonight: Note what is not being said.


AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

The best way to handle a partner or key associate is on a one-on-one level. You can root out a problem in order to come to an understanding with this person. Both of you will feel much better after having a long chat. Visit with an older loved one. Tonight: Opt for dinner for two.


PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

You might not agree with a partner, but you ultimately recognize that the two of you have similar issues. What is different is your responses to these issues. You could learn a lot from this person. Respect what each other has to say. Tonight: Go along with a loved one’s request.
