IN THE STARS

- with HOLIDAY MATHIS

ARIES

You tend to put pressure on yourself. Some of it is appropriat­e and is absolutely what you need to succeed; some of it is totally unnecessar­y. Today, you’ll figure out the difference.

TAURUS

There are three kinds of luck: the kind you are born into; the kind you stumble into; and the kind you make by putting yourself in situations with great potential. You can only really control the last kind.

GEMINI

Happiness doesn’t always make you smile. Sometimes, it makes you holler; sometimes, it makes you cry; and sometimes, it dumbfounds you into a state of perfect, blissful neutrality.

CANCER

You figure out that you simply don’t need as much as you thought you would, so you can let go and watch your energy level rise. Your connection with a fire sign (Aries, Leo, or Sagittariu­s) will raise your energy.

LEO

Thinking back to your behaviour from your younger days will make you cringe. Years from now, you’ll cringe about something you did just yesterday. It’s all growth. Stay light, laugh, forgive, and keep going.

VIRGO

Friends and stories will be the great treasure of your day. You’ll be surprised by what some people remember about your times together, and this will add to your own recollecti­ons.

LIBRA

Time can seem like a bully. But bullies can be stopped. Stand up to time. Take control of your schedule by filling it with what you want to do instead of reacting to every petty demand.

SCORPIO

You know when people say they’re ready, but then it turns out that they are not ready at all? It irritates you so much that you’ll take extra measures today just to make sure you’re not “that person.”

SAGITTARIU­S

Sometimes the conditions are perfect for slipping into a sweet spot of productivi­ty. Then there are days like today, when you have to practicall­y bribe yourself to get your head in the game.

CAPRICORN

You’ve seen how apparently trivial events can have disproport­ionately influentia­l consequenc­es. Today will present another instance of this, though it will take you months to detect the moment.

AQUARIUS

You’re really not sure where the next lucky break is coming from – the last one was so long ago. This is a fine time to arrange for yourself to be in as many potential hot spots as you can foresee.

PISCES

There’s a point in which trying too hard to change a negative behaviour becomes an even more negative behaviour. Obsessing over improvemen­t is not improvemen­t. Try self-compassion and acceptance.
