HOROSCOPE

Aries (March 21-April 19): Start with the most crucial thing. If you don’t, you may run out of time.

Taurus (April 20-May 20): When your expectation proves to be way off, there may be nothing left to do but laugh.

Gemini (May 21-June 21): What was derailed is now popped back on track, thanks in part to your “popping” abilities.

Cancer (June 22-July 22): With your focus and creativity, this day will be an enormously productive one.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): It’s definitely a work in progress, but every day, in hundreds of different ways, you’re becoming the person you want to be.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You have seen the truth without really noticing it. And the truth, not wanting to intrude on you, let you go on, knowing you’d someday come back to it and be liberated by it in some small way.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): The one you are so fascinated with represents a whole new world to you.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): No person who carries his worries with him is really taking a break. Learn how to let go.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22Dec. 21): The reason you are able to touch the hearts of others is that you are in touch with your own.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You’ve gotten used to some unusual situations because the oddities evolved so gradually that you couldn’t even see them as anything other than normal.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): If you want time to go by fast, fall into the routine. If you want it to go by slowly, novelty is the ticket. Bounce between the two for optimum pacing and a humming good mood.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): You know what you want it to look like, and from there you’ll extrapolate all that needs to happen. The order it needs to happen in — now, that’s the tricky part.

Today’s birthday (Jan. 19): You alight upon social secrets, charismatic habits and ultimately ways of bringing out the cleverness in others; they celebrate you time and again for it. February and October both bring a surprise gift and money, too. Professional advancement will come in April. The travel in August will be out of character in a very fun way. Cancer and Virgo adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 47, 10, 33, 15 and 6.
