Horoscope

- By HOLIDAY MATHIS

Cosmic Captain Obvious Sometimes the theme of the day emerges as we make our way through the hours. Events occur that can be characteri­zed by loose associatio­n and upon reflection will fall or be jostled into a more or less fitting category. The current astral line up has us waking up inside just the theme we need, which will be declared as obviously as skywriting.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You will let go of a little piece of pride in the hopes of coming to a harmonious place in a relationsh­ip. Other parties may not be so willing, at least not initially, but your example will lead the way.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Love is many things. Today, it’s being able to correctly assess and cater to an emotional state. Turn your nurturing powers in on yourself or turn them to another person. Either way, the love begets more love.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). There’s a situation you pursued in the past. The doors were closed back then. Now brings the beginning of the turn. This one doesn’t need to be seized so much as slowly, curiously encountere­d.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). You admire emotional restraint, but don’t be fooled. People who seem in control of their “feels” are possibly not feeling them quite as deeply as you are. Your passion intensifie­s the highs and lows.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’ll be bright in two moments: the practice moment that happens in the safety of an empty room and the moment of inhale that pauses the action just long enough for you to insert yourself between opportunit­y and a grand potential.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). There was a time you didn’t know the standard, only your own experience which didn’t teach you enough. Now you know how people can effectivel­y help one another, so you see what’s not going on as clearly as what is.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Your sense of focus is on point and you’ve never been so serious about advancing your interests and the interests of those you answer to. Narrow down your task list so the big important things get the best of you.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). If there’s one thing you don’t need today, it’s advice. For starters, your intuition is on fire. And furthermor­e, you’re going to do this thing in a way that’s so unique, no one else has thought of it yet.

SAGITTARIU­S (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). There is no such thing as failure. If you’re putting things out into the world, trying things, working through fear and limitation, risking your pride, then you’re winning no matter what the outcome.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Impart the plan and cast your supporters in fitting roles. Then, watch it unfold. You’re a guide through this process. Don’t get so involved in the labor that you forget to put your head up to get the overview.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). There are people you appreciate because you can count on them to make good sense and help you onto the right path. Then there are people you appreciate because they don’t have to make sense to be loveable to you.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Because you want to know what others want, you ask, fully expecting to get back lies. It takes a special kind of listening to get past social niceties and know which questions to ask to get to the real truth.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Feb. 26). Spiritual developmen­t elevates your experience. Whether pleasures are many or few, goals are met or not, relationsh­ips grind or sail blissfully, your joy, grace, gratitude and compassion flow strong through it all. Profession­al shifts align brilliantl­y with your talents. Bonus money allows for fun improvemen­ts. Virgo and Leo adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 9, 30, 33, 1 and 14.

WEEKEND LOVE FORECAST: ARIES: Leave room for speculatio­n, play and a disruption of the routine, which will be the best part. TAURUS: Though reason is powerless in the poetry of love, it works wonders to sort out the details of a shared lifestyle. GEMINI: While you love to impress, an audience that’s too demanding takes the fun out of that. Set boundaries. CANCER: A certain someone is constantly on your mind. If you don’t make a move now, then when? LEO: You don’t want another person to conform to you, nor you to them. The difference­s widen both of your perspectiv­es. VIRGO: When people are able to see one another in a different way, much is possible. Conflict can end, attraction can kindle, opportunit­ies open and close. LIBRA: Learn the love language of another and you won’t have so many problems with wonky translatio­ns.

SCORPIO: You’re the social director with all the fun ideas. People need structure and you make the game fun. SAGITTARIU­S: You’re not a robot, but you can program yourself to some degree to respond to matters of the heart in a way that empowers you and gives you more options. CAPRICORN: Even the best people don’t always take the best action. Give do-overs. AQUARIUS: Your wise handling of a knotty problem will get you promoted in someone’s esteem. PISCES: Whether they’ve known you for years or minutes, people open up to you.

COUPLE OF THE WEEKEND: As the full moon in Virgo reflects the glory of the Pisces sun, these two can bring out the best and the worst in one another. It’s a real Dharma and Greg, Will and Grace, Felix and Oscar, Bert and Ernie situation here in which the give and take is that of opposites. They teach each other about perspectiv­e, responsibi­lity, pleasure, boundaries and each expands the other in some meaningful way.
