HOROSCOPE

- By HOLIDAY MATHIS

Mars, Saturn and Control Freaks Some just can’t seem to go with the flow. Instead, they feel compelled to dictate how everything is done around them, skillfully orchestrat­ing environmen­ts and situations that keep them in control. Will you fall in line? The current alignment of Mars and Saturn suggests that many will feel moved to point out that the “line” is a man-made construct.

ARIES (March 21-April 19).

You can’t have a bold day and a mistakefre­e day and have it all be the same day. You’ll have to choose. Before you do, you should know that the current astral lineup suggests that the bold day is tipped in your favor.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).

One way that your subconscio­us speaks to you is in the form of curiosity. Another way is in the form of jealousy. Both give you hints as to the endeavors that might suit your personalit­y the best.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

Bottom line, the people who are worried about being seen as less than desirable are feeling less than desirable. It’s just an unsubstant­iated opinion! Stamp it out. The truly desired don’t care what anyone thinks.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).

What about compassion? What about listening? What about forgetting the societal expectatio­ns for an hour or a day? This is the way to find a heart. The first heart you’ll find will be your own.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22).

It doesn’t matter whether the dog saw the invitation list or not; the dog will bark at intruders and invited guests alike. Your adrenaline system is a little like that. The things that trigger it today may surprise you.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).

As for the person who finds it hard to give a compliment, you might find this fact rather suspicious. Rightly so. It shouldn’t be so difficult to prop up those around you, unless you are harboring emotional disabiliti­es.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).

No word? Assume the best. No news will be good news. No answer? Go along your happy way. Everything is happening in the time it’s supposed to. All will be revealed on a need-to-know basis.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

Anyone who has taken good care of another human knows the humility that this requires. A servant’s heart is rewarded in ways that those who don’t have one would find hard to understand.

SAGITTARIU­S (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).

Masks are stiff, fake and boring. It’s almost impossible to project your own personalit­y through one. Some will put on a mask to deal with today’s situation, but you’ll get better results just being yourself.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).

Space is a vacuum that doesn’t carry sound the way air does, but the planets howl and plasma whistles nonetheles­s. Today you’ll be like the high-powered space probe that picks up what no one else does.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).

Your mind will be like a laser today. Lasers are used to do surgeries, catch thieves and manufactur­e clothes. Similarly, you’ll use your powers of focus in multiple and unrelated ways.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).

You’ll design new habits and systems for the way you want to grow – but you won’t expect others to follow along, because authentic people like you live by their own rules. No one else needs to follow them for them to be valid.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (April 2).

It will be lucky to learn new languages and communicat­ion styles. You’ve an energy everyone wants to cozy up to, and your social life will reflect this. Positive thoughts seed a magically unfolding July and August. An investment will pay double in 2019. A deal involving three or more partners will bring good fortune. Libra and Scorpio adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 5, 30, 1, 33 and 49.

ASTROLOGIC­AL QUESTION:

“My problem is my boyfriend. It’s been almost three years, and I still doubt his love for me. He doesn’t show any affection toward me in public. He treats me as his old friend in front of other people. He says he just wants to act profession­al and doesn’t want to do anything that older people would disap- prove of. That makes sense, but I can’t help but feel he’s just not proud of me. Plus, he looks at other women when we’re together. Sometimes we break up, but a few hours later we get back together because he says he doesn’t want to lose me. How can I change his attitude, and what can you say about our relationsh­ip? He’s an Aries, and I’m a Leo.”

Lose him. Aries men can be wonderful, but sometimes it takes them a while to act maturely and learn the rules of love. He is terrified of being alone, and that is the only reason he stays in the relationsh­ip. The emotional scars that this relationsh­ip carries with it will be very damaging to you in the long run. He needs to learn to be alone, and you need to learn to set your standards higher. Break up with him now. If he were to break up with you, it would be much worse, because Leo takes a longer time to heal when the other person does the breaking up.
