HOROSCOPES BY HOLIDAY

Happy birthday. Early 2018 presents fresh financial options.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Moods are like weather. They are not contained inside our body; rather, they radiate out and affect anyone nearby.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Though there are instances when a little competition makes things interesting, in your current cosmic position it is not advised.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21): What you feel with your heart and soul may be impractical, illogical and whimsical beyond your comfort level. Regardless, your heart and soul have the wheel.

CANCER (June 22-July 22): You have a strong point of view but will not be inclined to argue it. After all, it’s not that important to you that others think you’re right or do it your way.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Embrace the entirety of who you are — your strengths and vulnerabilities, the parts that align with the popular morals and rules, the parts that don’t, the refined and the rough.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Mastery tempered with humility — this is the balance to strike.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Every dalliance demands a tribute. The costs are usually not upfront and clearly marked on the menu.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): A sincere desire to learn — this is all that the teacher will ask of you.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You’ll be the first to suggest a smart, loving compromise to the problem that plagues your relationship.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): It’s a principle of advertisement: More exposure equals more response. The best ad in the world won’t work if no one sees it.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You’ll be the winner. That doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll take home the top prize. The real winner is the one who extracts the most value from the experience.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Special things are only truly special if they happen very infrequently. The rare thing is precious because it’s rare.
