HOROSCOPES BY HOLIDAY

Happy birthday. People love you for reasons unreasonable, mysterious and obvious. People love you for you and who you’ll be and who you were once. Love is subjective, also beyond the rules of subjectivity and objectivity. Mostly, this year, you’ll enjoy so much love you won’t even remember a time you were without it.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Don’t worry; you’re good at being a person. This is not even a question. There are certain things you don’t need to question and this is one of them. Move along.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Maybe you haven’t been able to exactly control your thoughts on a certain matter. (Some thoughts can be incredibly addictive and harder to wrangle than wild beasts.) But if you control what you say out loud, that’s a start.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21): Too much attention on anything will change its state, so the main thing is to be careful what you place attention on. Attention can make a good thing of a bad thing or make a bad thing of a good thing. CANCER (June 22-July 22): You’ve felt more ready to take on the world. But this isn’t so bad - this part where you acknowledge your fragility. There’s so much you can do when you accept all the different parts of yourself.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Gravitation involves flying and anti-gravitation involves falling, because “up” and “down” are somewhat interchangeable. So don’t be too quick to decide where you are right now. It’s that you are, not where you are, that matters.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Your life hypnotizes you. There’s a pattern, and it lulls you into a rhythm. Then that rhythm brings a frame of mind that allows for unexpected things to spring forth. This is the course of your day.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): You put all your focus on making yourself better and it works; you get better. Bonus: It even feels somehow very easy to improve. Savor this rare and uncomplicated day.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): What makes you feel better in the short term may not be right for your long-term plan. Today, you are better off serving your long-term plan. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): If you can provide a framework in which people can use their talents, then this is doing something amazing that will have repercussions beyond what you could ever imagine. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): To express yourself in a way that is better than the last time, that is unique, that lands on the ear and heart of your audience in a certain way is an expression of genius.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): All of the stories will change in time. The true ones will become false, the false ones will become true. The difference between history and mythology is not a difference of content, but years.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): The middle is a good place to be today; you’re protected at either side, so long as no one crowds in or gets too close. You’ll learn what’s happening for the majority.
