HOROSCOPES BY HOLIDAY

Happy birthday. Your star quality shines this year. The work situation gets easier because a friend keeps you on the path to success. You’ll have good teachers through the end of the year, but draw your own conclusions, because you know what’s best for you. Travel sweeps you into a romantic mood in March and July.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): You’ve hit a saturation point with something you used to love or follow. You’re not in the same place anymore, or maybe the other thing has changed. It’s a good day for moving on.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You may have the urge to laugh at the wrong time. Curb it! People take laughter the wrong way under this sky, especially men, who are likely to equate chuckles with disrespect.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21): You have something important to impart. Your message will be read, heard or considered only if it is brief and to the point. Otherwise, it will go into the slush pile.

CANCER (June 22-July 22): Take it slowly, and do one thing at a time today. Trying to fit in too much before the sun goes down will be confusing to all involved.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): It’s nice to praise someone publicly, on social media or through a group email. Of course, this is exactly the wrong way to criticize a person. That should always be done one on one.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Your brain will fire at top speed all through the day and night, and you’ll come up with truly inspired ideas.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): How can you be expected to stay in the moment when most of your life is in the past? You’ll drift often to things you said and did long ago. Just be sure to come back when a loved one needs you to be present.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): It’s happened before: One day you’re enthralled with a person, and later the same person bores you. That’s why you’re more careful now about bonding with people.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): If you find yourself wanting to complain a lot, ask yourself what it is you need to do. The goal today is not to expect or ask of others what you can make happen yourself.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Many people you know are content to let things play out and go along in their current rhythm. Not you.You might relax, but you won’t let go completely because you have one eye on the next move.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): It’s been said that paradise is just like this, only way better. Assume that there’s something very good in your current situation, and work to find it instead of planning an escape.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): For baby wolves, fighting with siblings, pouncing, chasing and hunting small prey is preparation for the demands to come. Similarly, you’ll be part of a pack today, and you’ll be made strong through hard play.
