HOROSCOPES BY HOLIDAY

Happy birthday. This solar return, you’ll step way out of the familiar and, upon returning, find new joy in the life you’ve built. ARIES (March 21-April 19): You’ll find idleness to be an irritant and gladly take on more than your share to stay busy. TAURUS (April 20-May 20): One of the more difficult character challenges of the day will be in the practice of nonjudgment. GEMINI (May 21-June 21): Get going on a project. It doesn’t matter where you start; it just matters that you do. CANCER (June 22-July 22): You’re the unofficial coach of your group. You won’t let anyone perform at a subpar level without investigating the problem, fixing it and motivating improvement. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): This is a time to keep as much of the project under your control and jurisdiction as you can. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You don’t like to put people out, but if they want to make a sacrifice on your behalf, let them.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Who should be fulfilling your expectation? Whose expectation should you be filling? If the answers to those questions are “nobody” and “nobody’s,” then you’ll have an excellent day.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Things will not stay the way they are. They never have, and they never will.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): In most things, the lows and highs will expand at the same time. In a related story, you’ll be reminded that the way to intelligent things is often found through silly things.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You’re edgy; the pressure is on. Embrace it. Stay in the moment and use the energy.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Overplanning leads to a boring outcome. If your plans are prohibiting you from taking advantage of the pop-up opportunities of the moment, abandon them.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): You’ll be at your absolute best in a safe environment where you’re not worried about being scored or judged.
