HOROSCOPES

Your birthday today:

You once worried about what was expected of you, but now you laugh about it because you already know and have decided how much credence to give to those expectations.

Aquarius: Jan. 20-Feb. 18 People fall in love with you unexpectedly. If you can help it, be careful not to foster attachments with which you won’t be able to keep up. It’s no fun to be loved more than you love.

Pisces: Feb. 19-March 20 What’s legal isn’t always moral, and what’s moral isn’t always legal. But today won’t be about laws of state. It’s more about rules of the heart versus social mores.

Aries: March 21-April 19 Jealousy makes people behave uncharacteristically. It’s not worth it to make someone jealous on purpose; if anyone does this to you, consider it a red flag.

Taurus: April 20-May 20 If you can facilitate an experience for another person, you’re thrilled for the opportunity to do so. You can invite experience but never provide it; experience is a co-creation between host and guest.

Gemini: May 21-June 21 Check in with loved ones, even if you just did recently, if you’re worried about bothering them or have nothing to say. Connection proves meaningful in unexpected ways.

Cancer: June 22-July 22 You don’t have to help everyone around you. Consider that you might be able to help them best today by doing you and being clear, strong and convicted about that.

Leo: July 23-Aug. 22 Issues of territory arise. The map is a crude tool here, because even if you spell out the “mine” and “yours” of it all, life makes the borders messy again. You must lead with your heart on this one.

Virgo: Aug. 23-Sept. 22 No pressure, but people notice you and start to follow you — and not solely in an attentiongarnering or social-media way. They actually do what you do and say what you say.

Libra: Sept. 23-Oct. 23 It’s one of those days when you can really see clearly who is in and who is not. Harsh maybe, but anyone who isn’t rooting for you in obvious ways today doesn’t belong on your team.

Scorpio: Oct. 24-Nov. 21 You did it before, and you can do it again. Sure, you can’t remember how you did it — or even why. You’re not the same age, and you don’t have the resources that you did then. Nonetheless, you’ll repeat the success. Believe.

Sagittarius: Nov. 22-Dec. 21 If you could figure out a way to go faster and still maintain the quality, you would. But this just happens naturally. Quality first; speed follows.

Capricorn: Dec. 22-Jan. 19 You love to keep smart people around you who will challenge you and make you read, think, learn and strive to be healthy and active. You also love comfortable people. In fact, you love and need them a little more today.
