HOROSCOPES
Your birthday today: . You’re not going for the trophy; you’re just going ever forward in the same direction, and the trophy is one of the inevitable takeaways. Leo and Libra people adore you.
Aquarius: Jan. 20-Feb. 18 People will not sanction the cost of what they don’t understand. Your options are to make them understand or flesh it out yourself at whatever cost it takes and let them catch up later.
Pisces: Feb. 19-March 20 You’ve an instinct to disclose that’s running counter to your instinct toward charm. Consider the wisdom of the French writer Voltaire when he said that the secret to being boring is to say everything.
Aries: March 21-April 19 It’s better to let off steam little by little than to let it build and blow up at an inopportune time. The perfect partner in letting loose will come tonight.
Taurus: April 20-May 20 Your life is full of gifts and blessings, so many that if someone off the street were to just step into your life, that person wouldn’t be sure where to start the gratitude list. But you know where to start it. So go there, and be happy.
Gemini: May 21-June 21 It will be a scenario you feel familiar with but on guard about. You’ll prepare to say no, but when the moment comes, all won’t go as planned. Consider inviting a friend into this with you.
Cancer: June 22-July 22 Whereas most people are not quite so effective as they think they are, you have the opposite dynamic going on today. You don’t know your own strength.
Leo: July 23-Aug. 22 When it’s not working, the answer can be to try harder and do more. This isn’t always the answer. Sometimes the answer is to stop or to go at it a different way. But right now, what’s needed is repetition of effort.
Virgo: Aug. 23-Sept. 22 Greatness isn’t something that exists in a few rare souls. It’s inside all. The problem for many is that they just don’t believe in their own kernel of greatness. You’ll remedy this for someone today.
Libra: Sept. 23-Oct. 23 This is not a time for leaping. Steps forward will be more than enough. There’s someone you want to know better. Allow things to build slowly. Small risks escalate the action. This is not a time for leaping.
Scorpio: Oct. 24-Nov. 21 Validation can be addictive. Knowing this, when you hear the praise, keep your head. Recognize it for what it is, a sticky bit of honey that can trap you if you land and rest too long there.
Sagittarius: Nov. 22-Dec. 21 It’s time to narrow your focus and home in on one goal. Can you pull this off with less? By getting small, you will accomplish big.
Capricorn: Dec. 22-Jan. 19 Sometimes it’s right to take “no” for an answer, and other times, such as this one, you have such a strong feeling that your offering will really help all involved that it’s worth it to move past “no” with a counteroffer.
