- With HOLIDAY MATHIS

ARIES

Whatever the issue, at its core, it’s as old as a people is. What’s been written about it? Look it up and you’ll find that the problem has been as well-addressed in the last decade as it was in the last millennium.

TAURUS

You feel like you’re just making up reasons to celebrate, and maybe you are, but if you don’t do this, when exactly will celebratio­ns occur? Not nearly often enough.

GEMINI

Fear is not the enemy; it’s just a message that goes off when triggered, like a car alarm. Also like a car alarm, it often goes off for reasons other than it was designed for.

CANCER

Your body has a deep, ancient and intuitive intelligen­ce, which is separate from your mind. Your health gets better when you think less, listen to your body and give it what it needs.

LEO

The key to amassing friends who truly enrich your life is to be excellent at spotting the stranger or acquaintan­ce who has potential. First impression­s are key. You can trust today’s perception­s.

VIRGO

The way to win the competitio­n will be to not compete. If you sense someone is trying to outdo you, give them the props they are looking for, and then take yourself out of the game.

LIBRA

Is it possible to be always at peace in a world that is not? Well, if anyone can do it, you can. As you accept, bit by bit, the reality you’re living in, you see ways to work with what is in order to create what might be.

SCORPIO

They warn against burning bridges. What about just disappoint­ing the bridge a little? It may be impossible not to. It’s inevitable that a bridge will get a bit worn out by the crossing, and that’s the nature of the journey.

SAGITTARIU­S

To enjoy pleasurabl­e moments and then let go makes for a happier experience, though it’s difficult to pull off. It’s only human to try to keep pleasure on the line, even though pleasure will always cut bait.

CAPRICORN

Reconsider your shopping cart before you buy. As the scholar Roger Corless said, “Trying to be happy by accumulati­ng possession­s is like trying to satisfy hunger by taping sandwiches all over your body.”

AQUARIUS

As much as you’d like to be sure that committing to an action will bring the intended result, such assurances are not always on offer. Take the next step and see what happens.

PISCES

Every decision has an obvious price and a payoff, as well as many subtle effects that are not obvious at all. But you, being astute, will pick up on them and account for them accordingl­y.
