Horoscopes by Holiday

Happy birthday. Your willingness to fail is what leads to a July success of which you (and your loved ones) will be extremely proud. Seize the chance to perform as much as possible so you can work out the kinks. A mutually beneficial business relationship leads to an August windfall.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): You'll get realistic about whether or not your efforts are bringing you the desired results. Usually, there is more gray area to consider -- but not now. It's either working or it's not.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Just because things wind up next to each other doesn't mean they should be compared. It may take a great deal of restraint not to make comparisons, and if you can pass this test, you are superhuman.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21): There are definitely perks to being you. For one, you don't care too much about what people think right now, and that's part of what makes you so funny. You'll enjoy making people smile.

CANCER (June 22-July 22): Style risks are part of the fun, and don't be afraid to take this beyond your previous limits. Hair grows back, and you can always change your clothes, so experiment.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Reach out to the people you haven't had a chance to talk to. You've all changed in interesting and positive ways. It's time to share those changes so you can get back in sync.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Everything has a context. That's why so many moments that were funny, exciting and generally awesome wind up being less so when you try to explain them to someone who wasn't there.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): The most powerful person isn't the one who's talking nonstop. It's the one to whom others are talking. When people feel compelled to share with you, you can consider it a sign of respect.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): You'll see your town the way a tourist sees it: with great curiosity and a desire to taste the most interesting offerings before you move along to the next place.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): It's better to celebrate a flaw than to conceal it. Once you bring attention to the thing you were trying to hide, it no longer can be called a flaw. It transforms into an item of interest.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Even though you recognize that the thing you want is merely a symbol of success and not success itself, you still want it. Symbols are powerful, too.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): What you say has a very real power to expand, guide and direct the emotional flow around you. Choose your words carefully and your tone even more carefully.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Unpredicted good fortune will befall you. You'll be rethinking your definition of advantages and disadvantages when what you thought was a disadvantage actually works in your favor.
