Horoscopes by Holiday


Happy birthday (Feb. 4): You're reflective, intentional and bold! You'll break out of ruts. It takes some daring to meet new people, but it lights up your life. Because you dare to seek kind people doing interesting things in the world, love glistens, friends listen and the social swirl sings.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): You are willing to admit when you're wrong, and when you're right you don't always say so. Today it may be better to help the other person save face. Deals are easier to come to when everyone feels respected.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): What you do in the outside world reflects the work you've done to develop yourself on the inside too, though not everyone sees this. It's what makes your relationships special with those certain people who really know you.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21): Oh, the compelling mystery! You'll be pulled along by the sweet tension of wanting to know until it gets to be too much for too long. You may seek spoilers in the interest of saving yourself time and freeing up your mind.

CANCER (June 22-July 22): Getting the right person to fulfill a role will make all the difference. Someone who handles the higher-ups with grace is impressive, but the best judge of a person's character is how they deal with their subordinates.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Vicinity will determine who you know. It may limit you to settle for where you happen to be. There are those who don't realize they have options, but you're more adventurous and will give yourself a locational advantage.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): The ability to suspend disbelief for the sake of having a bit of fun will be a much used and highlighted skill. You'll do this as you listen to stories and as you practice your storytelling.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Give yourself credit. It's not about being prideful, it's just the truth that needs to be honored for a situation to run smoothly. Things work better when everyone knows exactly who is doing what and the value in it.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): It's the little gestures that will save the day. For instance, empty your pockets before doing laundry. You're in danger of inadvertently tossing out money or a good phone number or washing a pen.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Avoid those who seem to think of every interaction as a zero-sum game. In this endeavor, many can and will win at the same time. In fact, the more they help one another win, the more everyone will.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Don't worry about saying what others want to hear. They'll have their opinion about any sort of message you could possibly deliver, so you may as well communicate what's on your mind and heart.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Presentation will make a difference you can count, possibly in dollars, definitely in smiles. Take the time to make your project pleasing to the senses. The right lighting and acoustics will be especially important.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): In business, the prize will go to the one who keeps cool. That happens to be your talent. Tonight: You have something to say, and you look good saying it, which will sway certain audience members. Whatever works!

HYPE MOON: There’s an argumentative tension between Mars and Venus, but this will be overshadowed by the Leo moon and Jupiter lending luck for performances, pitches and presentations. Exciting deals get made. There’s magic in the sale because people enjoy the dazzle, crave the showmanship and long for the feeling of joining the hype.

CELEBRITY PROFILES: Oscar De La Hoya is the first American of Mexican descent to own a national boxing promotional firm. Golden Boy Productions is a combat sport promotional firm that not only features world champions and fight nights, but also presents million-dollar checks to charities. The Aquarian “Golden Boy” has 10 world titles, a gold medal and a habit of breaking financial records in the sport of boxing and philanthropy, too.
