HOROSCOPES THE FAMILY CIRCUS
Aries (March 21-April 19). When you’re not looking for the evidence of what people can and can’t do for you, you see others for who they are. Therein lies an entirely different kind of connection. Taurus (April 20-May 20). This is one of those times when the idea of something is almost as good as the thing itself – and a lot less expensive.
Gemini (May 21-June 21). If you feel the situation is edging toward expectations you cannot fulfill, you’ll avoid it. In a healthy relationship, both people feel free. Togetherness is a choice, not a trap.
Cancer (June 22-July 22). History is not destiny; however, when using data to predict the potential of different outcomes, the past is all we have.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22). Once again, it’s time to update your standards. This is not to be confused with upgrading, as they were serving you just fine for a time, but times have changed (and how!) and the bugs must be fixed.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). When you find yourself in a pretty pickle, take out a fork and knife and start making sandwiches. The rule of thumb here: Everything goes down better in bite-sized pieces.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You can value what you don’t understand, and that is the magnetizing effect of mystery. Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Don’t worry about learning who you are. When you’re in action, your own identity is the farthest thing from your mind. Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). It gets so cinematic you’ll be looking around for the camera crew – is this for real? Yes and no. The drama is heightened for effect by those who are fueled by people’s reactions. They’ll go until the attention runs out.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). A certain amount of outrageousness will be tolerated and rules will be bent right to the edge of their breaking point.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). What didn’t work the first time might not work the second or third time either, and yet you are undeterred.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20). Everyone you do business with or socialize with will have their own expectations, each with a contagious influence, and they all, at certain points, intersect. Your experience and awareness allow you to manage it.
Today’s birthday (Feb. 8). The maxim that stands you in good stead: Be nice to everyone every day. It’s actually easy for you, and it brings all the bounty your heart desires. You’ll learn a group’s culture, assimilate and rise through the ranks. It will seem as though you’re being constantly gifted, but this is just the universe paying you what you’re due. Aries and Gemini adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 10, 46, 33, 38 and 5.
