HOROSCOPES BY HOLIDAY

- TODAY’S BIRTHDAY

(July 12): The Chinese word “guanxi” describes a network of relationsh­ips essential to conducting business. This year, such a network will bring happiness and prosperity. You’ll develop a system of measuring goodwill. Those who learn your ways and earn your trust will get your business, your love or both. Sagittariu­s and Aquarius adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 8, 20, 4, 16 and 23.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Your love is a rare and beautiful gift best invested where it can be appreciate­d. If you’re not getting feedback that you’re appreciate­d, then you’re probably not. You deserve better! Go find it. TAURUS (April 20-May

20): If you got into love a little deeper than was good for you, you have it in you to save your own heart like a hero. Of course, it’s a lot easier just to choose the right people upfront — people who can love you back and just as hard. GEMINI (May 21-June 21): People on the offense will make moves to defend themselves, and this creates conflict. So if you want to avoid conflict, refrain from threatenin­g people’s beliefs, possession­s or position. CANCER (June 22-July 22): In order for something to make you happy, you must really feel as though you’ve earned it. When you’re putting in the work, even the tiniest things can bring you a great sense of accomplish­ment and elation. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): You love your friends and family, but the most satisfying relationsh­ips featured today will be with mere acquaintan­ce. When people barely known to you do kind things, it restores your trust in the good of humanity.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept.

22):

A deeper look into your possession­s will reveal what you have, what you thought you’d lost and what you’d totally forgotten about. It will also help you avoid making unnecessar­y purchases.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): “Taking stock” is a term used by merchants accounting for their wares to track what’s available, what’s been sold, ordered, broken or stolen. Take stock of current resources, material and immaterial; you’ll soon reopen “shop.” SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov.

21): For whatever reason, others seem fine with all that’s going on. But everyone is different. Suddenly you’ll feel creative. This is a response to discomfort — your way of trying to cope or adapt to conditions that don’t naturally suit you. SAGITTARIU­S (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Do people really belong to each other? It depends on whom you ask. This will be the question at the heart of the action: To what extent do and/or should you allow yourself to be controlled by others? CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You’ll combat difficult people with tolerance, acceptance and love. You’ll win with this approach, not a trophy or a monetary award but something more valuable: peace and self-respect. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You like people, but you also thrive on solitude. Lately, you haven’t had enough tranquilit­y to do the deep thinking that connects you with the most intelligen­t and creative parts of yourself. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Follow instructio­ns and you’ll be a hit with the boss. Whether the “boss” in this instance is a friend, a partner or your actual boss, deference to authority is a skill that will serve the whole team well today.
