HOROSCOPES BY HOLIDAY

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Feb. 25).

It happens often over the next 12 months: the universe smiles at you and you smile back. Your stellar attitude will bring new developments, light up worlds and open doors. Contracts and legalities favor you. You’ll get the better part of an excellent “pie.” The respect of your peers is nice but being able to lift and lead your team will be even nicer. Virgo and Scorpio adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 3, 1, 11, 28 and 16.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).

It’s not a time to experiment, stray or allow for any kind of zigzag. Ward against distraction. Stay the course and you’ll see things start to pay off for you. These days, focus is everything.

ARIES (March 21-April 19).

It’s better to underschedule than overschedule. People make mistakes when they feel rushed. You’ll get the best out of others when you exude an easy-going sense of timing.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).

You’ll think about who you are to other people and who you are to yourself. You’ll compare and contrast those two ideas. It’s about more than how you look, your name or your role. There’s something else that matters here.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

You’re an excellent judge of character, but if you had a blind spot for those who compliment, praise and serve you, you could count yourself among the rest of the humans. It will be relevant today.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).

You may perceive a partner to be the cause of your feelings, but the truth is also showing itself to you. A person cannot bring you any feeling that is not already inside you.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22).

If it looks like the room has no doors, you might believe you’re trapped. The illusion of limits is very powerful. So is the illusion of limitlessness. Practice disbelieving the limits and they just might disappear.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).

You’ll accept a prize in full acknowledgement that the recognition and reward are a lovely carrot the universe dangles before you to get you to the real point, which is selfdevelopment.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).

New relationships and ventures percolate. You’ll choose between a professional and personal goal. Eventually you can do both, but you’ll have to show where your priorities lie first.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

Logic dictates that you can’t care and be detached at the same time, however something beyond logic will allow for just this. Life brings you assistance and lessons both practical and spiritual.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).

Naivety can be caused by a lack of experience or a refusal to experience. In either case, you can help. With warmth and accessibility, you make experience fun and easy to acquire.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).

When you’re praised, you’ll deflect or give it to your team. When you get credit, you’ll lift it as an offering to your teachers. Those who have acted selflessly to nurture you gave you the idea to follow suit.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).

You’ll develop new objectives. It’s better to name a narrow focus and be successful there than try for a broad accomplishment. Question for the psyche: “Who are you expecting yourself to be?”
