HOROSCOPES BY HOLIDAY
The moon and Mars align in Taurus for the send-off of the Cancer sun signifying financial exchanges like those that might occur between a parent and a child before the child goes off on a trip. Money for food, transit, entertainment and souvenirs will be handed over in a moment of caretaking as all parties look toward adventure’s horizon.
You were eager for good to triumph over evil. Now you realize it’s not so much about good and evil as it is about power and how a game is played. Rules will be broken by all sides.
Only untrustworthy people constantly talk about how good they are. Actions speak even when the actor is unaware of what they are saying. Those busy doing what’s right might have little time left for hype.
A case of arrested development will be featured, with people trapped at a point of growth they do not know how to move beyond. The stunted are likely oblivious to their own behavior. Compassion is called for.
You’ll take on tasks you are not yet equipped to handle, nor do you fully understand what they will entail. You’ll start without guidance but keep seeking help and along the way you’ll pick up the mentor you need.
You’ve experienced the quick brilliance of sheer inspiration, but the muses are fickle. More typically, what brings about your best is a bit of outside pressure. It’s on today!
Your self-doubts are normal but unhelpful, so you may as well stop. Your wishes are not unreasonable fantasies. If you don’t feel your hopes are within your grasp, you haven’t surrounded yourself with the right people.
While it’s wonderful to get what you want, it does come with a downside. Suddenly, you are responsible for protecting and maintaining the gift, as well as being grateful for it and using it accordingly. Wish carefully.
You’ll be mightily productive working with those whose gifts are complementary to yours but not identical. They share your values, not your strengths. You’ll accomplish together what you couldn’t do alone.
Sometimes relationships require work, but you shouldn’t have to work at them all the time. Putting too much emphasis on serving the needs of others will only make them spoiled and you resentful... not great for anyone!
The ego has a necessary role in your psyche, trying to mediate between all the parts of you. Don’t condemn your ego, but don’t cater too closely to it either, or believe it as the absolute truth.
A great well of self-discipline can be accessed. It won’t last all day, so use it while you have it. You will expertly manage your emotions, curb your cravings and shine in the social arena.
“The eye can’t see its own lashes” says the proverb, though things change with lash extensions. You’ll notice something about yourself. To you it’s subtle, but not to them. It’s an advantage to see from different perspectives.
Your confidence is high, and for good reason. Your talent, plus inspired action, will equal explosive success. Quite by accident you’ll make your way into a stellar team. More highlights: A hobby becomes work, a moment of closure or comeuppance, and trading in “old baggage” for new luggage and celebratory trips. Aries and Pisces adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 8, 19, 3, 33 and 14.
Beloved actor Robin Williams was known for performances that touched on every aspect of the human spirit. With over 100 screen credits in movies and television, the beloved Academy Award winner was exceptionally prolific. Williams was born when the sun, Mars and Uranus were all in the sensitive, intuitive sign of the crab and Mercury was in showstopping Leo. “Everyone you meet is fighting a battle you know nothing about. Be kind. Always.” -- Robin Williams
