HOROSCOPE

Aries (March 21-April 19): When you give yourself what you know you’ve worked for and deserve, be sure to take it without guilt or apology. Then celebrate.

Taurus (April 20-May 20): It might seem as though you’re losing at some point, but this is exactly the turn of events that you’ll be most grateful for later.

Gemini (May 21-June 21): You’re a unique and beautiful soul, regardless of whether or not you think so at any given moment.

Cancer (June 22-July 22): There are many voices in your head that aren’t yours and aren’t helpful to your growth. Shush them!

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): What you intended to be a steady stream of activity and joy is turning out to be more of a hectic schedule. So cut it back by half. Take it easy.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22):

Honor and love who you are. The best version of yourself situation starts with acceptance and wholeness.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Doing the right thing, again and again, has made you courageous and strong. It relates directly to today’s challenge.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Tell your inner micro-manager to back off. No extra judgment or even motivation will be necessary.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22Dec. 21): High implies low. The self implies other. Life implies death. And what does love imply? Certainly not hate. Maybe ownership, apathy or the neglect that comes from taking people for granted. Fight against the implication.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Full of doubts? It means that you’re intelligent — wise, even. You know who’s 100% certain? The fool.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Your work is important,

but not all-important. When it’s time to play, put that work out of your mind.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): The animals in your life have something to teach you about patience, love and affection.

Today’s birthday (July 21): You were meant to lead, and this year brings your moment — and many “your moments” at that. Stay ready so you won’t have to get ready. The generosity, affection and attention that you give to others will be returned with interest. A financial boost comes because you educate yourself beyond what’s expected. Leo and Pisces adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 1, 9, 44, 31 and 6.
