HOROSCOPES BY HOLIDAY:

- BY HOLIDAY MATHIS

The sun square Uranus situation warns against trying to solve the wrong problem. Knowing what’s really wrong is half the battle. One trick is to ask, “Why is this important?” Note the answer and then drill down further with another “Why is this important?” directed to that answer. Go deeper. Soon you’ll be at the problem’s root.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Don’t be fooled by people’s full-grown size. Many adults are emotional infants with emotional awareness under what the average 8-year-old possesses. Have patience!

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). The roadblock to your desire once caused you frustratio­n, but now it’s doing something different for you. Who knew you could be this strategic, creative and capable? Thank the roadblock.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). While no one knows exactly what will happen, you can make a pretty good guess where things are going based on your current position. The slightest change will alter the trajectory, and in today’s case, drasticall­y so. Pivot.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). The guru finds the condition in herself first, and then lives it. Others will observe and follow suit. The best teaching is modeling. It requires no explanatio­n, lesson plan, or grading system.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). To be intolerant of the intolerant nullifies the whole point. If you feel yourself leaning toward judgment, take yourself out of the equation entirely, or to whatever extent that is possible.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Your emotional core is solid. Your loved ones will get from you a strength that is as gentle, supportive and as constant as the mountain. Storms come and go, the mountain remains. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). It’s so much easier to give advice than to take your own, but you have the strength of will for this today so don’t let the opportunit­y slip by. Do the thing you’ve told other people to do.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). It seems that everyone is trying to get you to buy something today when what you really need isn’t a new item, program, teacher or method. Organize what you already have. That’s the winning move of the day.

SAGITTARIU­S (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). The Japanese have a word, “komorebi,” for the particular kind of sunlight that’s filtered through the trees. You’ll feel an emotional or spiritual light today that’s so distinct it deserves its own untranslat­able name.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). To know a thing is not for you and therefore to rule it out and ignore the option can be a very wise move. But be careful here. It can also be an indicator of fear and lethargy. Which is it? Examine your motives.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). To find out what keeps you stuck, figure out the reasons behind your current pattern. Ask yourself why. Once you know that, you’ll be able to come up with more desirable solutions to serve that need.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Quiet moments of introspect­ion only provide a glimpse. The way to really know yourself is to study yourself while you’re working with others. One person in particular will bring out an interestin­g side of you today.

IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY: Though you’re an open book, even open books are mysterious to those who haven’t read them cover to cover. People will have to demonstrat­e a commitment before they’ve earned your trust and the right to be a part of your thoughts and dreams. Mastery of social expectatio­ns and boundaries makes your life joyful. Libra and Virgo adore you. Your lucky numbers are 39, 3, 13, 2 and 49.
