HOROSCOPES BY HOLIDAY
Happy birthday. The year rolls with a free-flowing style, exploring various themes including identity and the interconnectedness of all aspects of your existence. The world celebrates your talent and pays you well for it, too. More highlights:
Your understanding of people will deepen. Your insights will lead to artful ideas. Nutritional changes lead to increased vitality.
ARIES (March 21-April 19): It’s been said that a loan to a friend has the potential to lose both. Instead of loaning, consider gifting. Only give what you can afford to lose. Only hand over what you can immediately forget about and will never want back.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Over the course of a day of excellence, you’ll turn out work that’s stellar and not so. You’ll make mistakes. You’ll make adjustments. You’ll start over. Excellence is about tenacity, not perfection.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21): There is no universal concept of ownership. You will wonder what belongs to you, and you’ll get a very real sense that this is a subjective construct. What’s worth fighting for and what can be let go of is a personal decision. CANCER (June 22-July 22): There’s some impatience with the work at hand, but as long as you’re learning, you’re golden. It’s OK to think differently than others seem to want you to. It will be interesting to note how your thought process converges and diverges with the norms.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Don’t worry about whether you have enough. It will often appear to you like you don’t. But once you’re doing the work, you’ll find that you can get all you need by making use of the resources you have.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Your exceptional powers of observation will help you navigate a tricky and competitive atmosphere. Ultimately, what you notice can be applied later. For now, keep track of it.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): You’ll ask for and learn from the opinions of others. A moment of empathy will broaden you. It’s your heart that benefits the most, though you’ll also use what you absorb to conduct relevant business.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Your interest goes in so many different directions today. You needn’t give into the pressure to choose. Explore and enjoy. You’ll know when the time is right to narrow your focus. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): A memory isn’t a story until you turn it into one. Taking the time to do this will give you insight into yourself and help others know you, too. Storytelling will be one of the best ways to help people understand and align with you. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Unwilling to gamble with other people’s expectations of you, you’ll underpromise and overdeliver. Encourage a realistic view of what you can do for others and discourage them from placing you on a pedestal.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): At first, today’s problem seems more complicated than it is. A little research is all it takes to free you. Ask around. Do an internet search. Read articles. You’ll soon get enough of a feel for things to make an informed decision.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): The best way to learn is to put yourself out there and get some feedback. You’re ready for it. What you gather will point you straight to your next good move.
AS VENUS JOINS THE PISCES PARTY…
It is entirely possible to be more attracted to how much someone likes you and how good they make you feel than you are to the actual person — a dynamic to be wary of, as it’s neither ideal nor sustainable. It is not too much to ask that both boxes be checked — that someone you admire, share values with and enjoy being around also happens to make you feel like a superstar.
CELEBRITY PROFILES
Like a Pisces, Terrence Howard has an artistic range that spans genres and is as comfortable in a comedy such as the upcoming film “Selfie” as he is with a drama, thriller or horror project. This versatile Pisces powerhouse was on an engineering track before he switched lanes to become an actor, and he has been known to tweet his mathematical theories. Natal Mercury in Aquarius speaks to an inventive mind, and Venus and Saturn in headstrong Aries suggest Howard will go to the mat to defend his ideas.
