IN THE STARS

- with HOLIDAY MATHIS

ARIES

Sometimes you’re charged with being a cog in the wheel, and other times your job is to steer and balance. Both jobs have their advantages and disadvanta­ges, so whichever it is, embrace it.

TAURUS

Our minds are so subjective that the idea of reality can be a squirrelly one. If you ignore it and it doesn’t go away, it’s probably reality. That’s good. Reality can be much more easily dealt with than non-reality.

GEMINI

Just as the Greek hero Odysseus found a way to resist the song of the sirens, you will find a way to resist temptation­s today. Odysseus had help from his crew, and so will you if you call on yours.

CANCER

Anyone can connect all of the wrong things and come to some dismal conclusion­s. You’ll connect the shining dots of rightness, and the conclusion that naturally follows will be bright and welcoming.

LEO

To be selfless and remain calm is the aim of people everywhere (especially women). And then one day (today) you’re simply not in the mood. Rage on.

VIRGO

Part of you will engage; the other part watches. Which is real? You’re the sky, not the weather. The clouds may decorate or menace, but don’t be bothered; clouds pass. You’re the constant.

LIBRA

Any path you commit to will get you there. So the better question isn’t, which one will get me there? It’s, which path might I commit to with pleasure?

SCORPIO

Solitude has a transcende­nt power, and so does unity. Too much of either state is diminishin­g, though. Your balance of social time and alone time may need some tweaking.

SAGITTARIU­S

You can’t think your way to peace, because thinking doesn’t bring peace. Peace exists between the thoughts, also around them. Music will be an easy and interestin­g way to organise mental clutter.

CAPRICORN

If you feel you have to inflate your confidence or brag or otherwise stuff your “resume,” the situation is already doomed. Go where the love is instead! Who you are isn’t what you have, own or do.

AQUARIUS

People will say that “something has to be done,” but does it? If nothing were done, what then? If you put it to the test and “something” still “has to be done,” then you’re the one to do it.

PISCES

There’s the unknowable, and then there’s the not-worth-knowing, and both may seem to be unworthy of the chase. However, pursuing the first category will bring many revelation­s.
