HOROSCOPES BY HOLIDAY
Happy birthday: It’s true that brilliance has, through the ages, has been misunderstood and ignored. You will have a rare gift for both recognizing and contributing to the realm of brilliance. It is more important than ever that you surround yourself with people who get it or at least sharpen you.
ARIES (March 21-April 19): You’ll be positioned to hire, date or invite someone new into the group. Choose carefully. Beware of those who treat those with power better than those without it. It’s the No. 1 red flag for troubling character issues.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You don’t march to anyone’s beat but yours, and having your own music gives you plenty of room to move at the pace that feels best to you.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21): You find it easy to serve your people. It’s actually hard for you to be selfish! But sometimes selfishness is what you need. Your own talents and strengths have gone somewhat ignored, and this is the time to restore the balance.
CANCER (June 22-July 22): You believe others would be better off if they followed your advice, but this is inconsequential in the scheme of things. What matters most is that you follow your own advice. That’s trickier than it seems, but you’ll accomplish it.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Your character is forged by a code you adopted years ago. The more you follow your convictions, the more convicted you become. How does it feel to know you’re turning into the person you always wanted to be?
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You’ll meet the needs of others before thinking about what you need. Loved ones may not be as attentive as you you’d like, but friendly outsiders help you feel appreciated and wake your people up to the value you bring.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Your imagination is strong. You’ll get on a creative hot streak. There’s a chance to hone interpersonal skills. Praise effort over talent. No one can control what they were born with, only how hard they try.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): When it comes to social order, everything matters. The arrangements of seating, the subject of conversation, the order in which people proceed with the business — it all says something. Caring about this sets up your win.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You may make a move that isn’t exactly popular to outsiders, but everything inside you says it’s right for you. Sometimes you have to be the villain in another person’s story to be the hero in your own.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Inner chaos creates outer chaos and vice versa. But which comes first? The good news today is that it doesn’t matter, because whether you bring calm to your inner or outer environment, you’ll make headway on both.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You’ll need to assess a situation to understand, at deeper and predictive levels, the people involved. Be generous with those who may have been coerced into questionable behavior. Patterns say more than isolated actions.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): On the one hand, you don’t want to be abandoned, nor do you want to be suffocated by closeness. Instead of dancing between these two unwanted states, think about what you do want and do that.
