HOROSCOPES BY HOLIDAY
The sun and Mercury con- junction highlights the intersection of passion and commerce. When you enjoy your work, compensation may feel secondary, but it’s still essential for anything called “work.” Without compensation the effort is correctly categorized as “charity,” “leisure” or “penance” as the case may be. Life balance depends on accurate analysis of the data.
ARIES (March 19).
Your search for grace and transcendence will lead you to others who are searching, too. With so many eyes on the situation, the spiritual treasure will be found. You’ll feel it before you see it.
TAURUS 20).
If you are asleep or awake, you are still you, proving that it takes no effort for you to be yourself. What does take work is enacting the various roles and fulfilling the responsibilities you have taken on. Don’t confuse the true self with its roles.
GEMINI 21).
It’s good to make a big deal over the little things you enjoy. You’ll get even more delight when you look back on them. These are the textures that make the story interesting, the spices that give your memories their kick.
CANCER 22).
When your people are having fun, so are you. When they aren’t, it’s hard for you to enjoy yourself. You can’t control the enjoyment of others, but if it’s your party, you can control the guest list. So, think of your life as your party.

Though the consummate actor and clown has over 100 performance credits in film and television, children around the world know him best as Mr. Noodle from “Sesame Street.” The master of physical comedy is an Aries, with a notably well-balanced natal chart. Every element is represented.
