HOROSCOPE

Aries (March 21-April 19): Your invitation to risk will come by way of your heart. Extend it and you’ll likely get hurt at some point — and it will also be totally worth it.

Taurus (April 20-May 20): The social excitement might take a second to get started, but once it catches on, it will keep going and become great fun.

Gemini (May 21-June 21): Once you make a choice, the universe will be like water, getting out of your way as you move. Cancer (June 22-July 22): In real life, there is no clear first-place winner of anything. Each case is unique. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Don’t bother with trying to people please. It’s safe for you to go against the flow and to speak the truth that others don’t share. Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): The energy has been low, and the progress has been slow. Things will pick up after a nice long rest.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): You’ll be looking for ways to increase your talents, powers and capabilities. Perhaps counterintuitively, this requires pulling back to assess and organize.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): For you, intuition isn’t a part-time thing. It’s always engaged. Today it will be a significant driver for you.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22Dec. 21): Effective people move on when the project is completed, knowing that nothing will ever be perfect.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You probably don’t want to be the one to crush the fantasy, yet the responsibility falls to you. Use a kind voice and all will go well.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Be wary of advice from those who feel that they’ve figured life out and now know how everybody can win. Everybody has his or

her own life path. Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): A break from routine will be a soul-satisfying luxury, no matter what the break is. As long as it’s out of your ordinary pattern, it will revitalize you.

Today’s birthday (June 28): Your elastic heart will expand to include more people. Joy will double up inside your world. Anger and compassion cannot coexist. As you become increasingly compassionate, fewer things frustrate and irritate you. You’ll get a power surge in September and change something that’s been bothering you for a long time. Leo and Sagittarius adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 9, 30, 33, 37 and 42.
