HOROSCOPE

Aries (March 21-April 19). The thing that’s working will continue to work for a time, and when it doesn’t anymore, you’ll move on.

Taurus (April 20-May 20). Just because someone has accomplished the task doesn’t mean he or she can teach it well.

Gemini (May 21-June 21). It will feel like your work is at the mercy of the good opinion of others. This is a lie.

Cancer (June 22-July 22). In this age of oversharing, many people won’t show the kind of restraint necessary to build a mystery.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22). You like to speak your mind without worrying how it will be received, and yet it’s rare that you can find a person with a strong enough sense of self not to take your pure outspokenness personally.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You’ll make a difference with people who really want to interact with you. Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Some say that great ideas always start out as controversial. On the other hand, the fact that people are fighting over an idea doesn’t necessarily mean it’s great either. Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Trusting a person allows you to relax and be yourself. But you also like the edge you get when you’re not sure of the relationship.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Maybe it’s not the first thing you think of when you think of the word “fun,” but you will actually enjoy activities that connect you to your beliefs.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). No one really enjoys interacting with a loved one who is tired and preoccupied, yet these are common moods. Yours will be different because you make sure it’s so. Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Don’t do nothing about something, and don’t do something about nothing.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20). Those who see unfulfilled desire as an affirmation of powerlessness will experience that.

Today’s birthday (Oct. 7). This solar return finds you in a sweet position to leverage your talents and work your advantages, although it may take you several weeks to figure out exactly what they are. Aquarius and Pisces adore you. Your lucky numbers are 4, 16, 3, 28 and 11. www.creators.com/author/holiday-mathis
