HOROSCOPES BY HOLIDAY

— Happy birthday. You have a burning desire and a clear right choice. Because you know what you must do, the consequences suddenly become inconsequential. Your work for the good of all won’t be glorified, but it will be rewarded in deeply profound ways. Band together in April. June brings publicity. July adds romance.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): You feelwonderful about yourself when you make others feel good about themselves. It’s a talent for sure, and one that requires an astute mind and a high level of attention.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Instead of imagining how you might succeed in business, think about how you could help your clients and customers succeed. Your success depends on the positive difference you make in the lives of others.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21): There’s a limit to what can be accomplished through thinking.At some point, you have to test the theory. In today’s case, the outcome will be surprising and nothing at all like you thought.

CANCER (June 22-July 22): Are you on a quest, or just in a dramatic mood? Beware: Questing can be a habit instead of a legitimate activity.You may find out that you already have what you seek.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): In some way, you’ll pour out stale feelings to make way for warm, loving ones. It’s similar to the way you must empty your cup of the old, cold coffee before you can properly accept a new brew.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22):You’ll overlook the peccadilloes of certain friends, but when your nearest and dearest commit such offenses, you feel it’s your responsibility to acknowledge it, if only to keep things honest.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): As your planets angle to cook up a financial snafu, you might consider seeing it as a math quiz of sorts.And if you have the right attitude, this ultimately leads you to a better relationship with money.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): You do not deem it necessary that everyone obey you. But you cannot be an effective leader unless your team follows you at least some of the time. So don’t be afraid to request this at key points today.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Right away you notice something to like in the new people you meet, and you forge fast bonds. Ironically, you’re unconcerned about whether they like you, and they genuinely like you because of this.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Life will give you reasons to get physical.Your hard work in this regard will pay off fi rst in a short-term exercise high and later as a general contribution to your good health.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Someone who once caused you stress will no longer be a bother to you.This person has moved on, and so will you.A smooth transaction this afternoon will be the first sign of progress.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): You’ll prove that the face of effective work is not always stern and serious. Sometimes it’s no sweat. Through your chuckles and levity, you’ll accomplish a signifi cant feat.
