HOROSCOPE

- By HOLIDAY MATHIS

Cosmic Trine of Hope It is said that the happiest people on earth are happy old people. If the culminatio­n of years of experience­s (including the challenges, disappoint­ments, war, strife and monotony that many long lives have seen) can distill down to joy there is hope for us all. That hope will be visceral during this lucky trine of Mercury and Jupiter.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Your willingnes­s to proceed cautiously and carefully building your projects and relationsh­ips will pay off in the trust you earn from those around you. You certainly will not want for companions­hip!

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Are you in touch with your innate gifts? You truly can pull up energy from the earth, and you will do this when you need strength. Nature is your ally today and a powerful one at that. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You’re in a playful mood, and if you keep this up you may just become someone’s favorite friend. In some cases, you don’t want to be in the friend zone, but you’ll quite naturally find your place in that situation as well.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). The person who has teaching or preaching as his primary purpose is a dull as a bad poem. Even if you happen to be the teacher (or the preacher), with play as your main purpose you’ll be the delight in their days.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You have resolved to give your best to a relationsh­ip and you’ll reaffirm this to yourself now. This is the part of the connection that you can control, and control it you will.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Sometimes happiness means making the most of what’s going on right now and finding something exciting about it, and sometimes happiness means declaring (if only to yourself), “Next!” LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Your digital inbox may be a wild jungle of a place, and so, too, is the inbox of your life right now. So many offers! Some of them are random; some are general. You can weed all of that out and focus on the shining gems.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Seek training, on-point conversati­on, criticism, inspiratio­n and interactio­ns to keep your skills sharp. It’s better to put in the work now before you really need to. This will give you an advantage later.

SAGITTARIU­S (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Harmless flirting isn’t. There are sensitive people around who will make a story out of it and spin things in a direction that does nobody good. Be careful where you wield that charm.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). If you didn’t want the thing until a friend, influencer or advertiser built your appetite for it, you might not really want the thing as much as you think. Take a step back. What’s the need inside the want?

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). When necessity demands your impromptu handling of a situation, there’s no better plan to follow than the one with which you are already familiar. Apply what you know from another world. You’ll be brilliant.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). As you read this, there are people gearing up for the challenge of a lifetime that will have an impact on you and on the near future. Go on and decide which challenge you will take on simultaneo­usly. Later your paths will cross.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (March 2). There are teams you’re born or thrown into, and there are teams you choose. Choosing well will bring your great delight. Your ambition may get the best of you, but you’ll shock all by proving it wasn’t even lofty enough. May and July are the best times to give, invest and commit. Someone younger makes your heart soar. Taurus and Gemini adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 16, 3, 38, 2 and 49.

WEEKEND LOVE FORECAST:

ARIES: Love and desire may intersect, but they are not the same thing. Love is nurturing, safety and comfort. Desire is danger.

TAURUS: Among the most romantic things you can do together this weekend will be picking out a rug or some other “nesting” behavior.

GEMINI: You rather enjoy being independen­t, which makes you all the more appealing to potential sweetheart­s.

CANCER: Clear, direct communicat­ion is your power move.

LEO: The ones who help you look good are worth more than the superficia­l value they provide.

VIRGO: Dare to be unreasonab­le. It will create a memory.

LIBRA: People will root for you because they like you. It won’t even matter what you’re up to. It doesn’t go unnoticed by you-know-who.

SCORPIO: You’ll help someone save face and win a heart.

SAGITTARIU­S: Someone’s self satisfying tactics will get old fast. Seek the company of givers.

CAPRICORN: You spell trouble for someone, which is of course the reason this person keeps coming back.

AQUARIUS: Love isn’t something that’s granted to you. You’ll create it, enjoy it and give it away.

PISCES: Your public persona is part of the package that a certain someone is falling in love with.
