HOROSCOPES BY HOLIDAY

Happy birthday. There is no finer joy than knowing that the one you care about loves you, too. This will be proved to you time and again this year. In May, acquiring wealth allows you to fully express yourself,especially by hiring and helping people, as well as by seeing your visions realized.

The summer is romantic. It sweeps you into your emotions and helps you lose the tendency to over-think.

Invest in August. October brings a payout of sorts.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Manual labor, especially having to do with cleaning up your environment, is the fastest way to feeling better. Clear a counter, desk or table, and your mind becomes fresh and clear, too.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): The creativity is flowing for you, and you’ll come up with exciting ideas - not all of them practical. Test them out on a Virgo or Capricorn to find out which ones are the best.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21): The compromises you’ve been making are starting to add up to a vague dissatisfaction with the way things are.

What needs to happen for you to feel like you’re getting more of what you want?

CANCER (June 22-July 22): You could get by on charm, but you prefer not to. You want to contribute something useful, and with all you’ve learned, it’s easy. Charm becomes unnecessary when you can deliver the real deal.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): It’s always easier to talk about what other people should do than it is to command your own ship. The wise individual won’t comment; he is too busy steering his vessel.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You’ll have options about where to spend your money. You won’t regret the choices that have to do with increasing your domestic satisfaction on a day-to-day basis.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): It’s important to feel a sense of progress, especially when you’re bummed out. Forget your hard challenges for a while, and tackle a job or game that’s easily done, easily won.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): When people are ready to learn, the learning happens easily and quickly. Teach those who are in the “ready” position. Those who aren’t ready may become inspired as they watch.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): As the sign of the archer, you are always immensely satisfied when you hit your mark. If you don’t have a target, you rob yourself of that satisfaction. Make some goals just for the fun of it.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Children desire to be very grown up, so in a sense, being a grown-up is a childish desire with which adults needn’t be overly concerned. Who said that grown people should always act like grown-ups?

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You can’t please everyone, so the best thing to do is aim to please yourself.

You’ll be amazed at the number of faces you’ll put smiles on while following through with what you believe is purely selfish.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Some tasks are like boomerangs, always giving you more to do and never finished until you decide you’re not going to play that game anymore. In some sense, you’ll have to put down your “toy” to be free.
