HOROSCOPE

Aries (March 21-April 19): Separate what is said from who is saying it. This is how you make sure to clear your own prejudice from the information. Taurus (April 20-May 20): Your personal rules for yourself warrant examination. You’re different now.

Gemini (May 21-June 21): The higher-maintenance a person is the less free he or she is. Knowing how to live with less gives a person power.

Cancer (June 22-July 22): You’re not lost, yet you’re experiencing a drifting feeling, as though your raft is farther from the shore than is comfortable.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): The unmanageable parts of life won’t be the difficult ones; rather, it’s the ones in need of prioritizing that will require your most critical faculties.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Among the saddest words are “if only.” An opposite grouping isn’t so easy to land on, but it’s something along the lines of “I accept.”

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): You’ve a way of encouraging your loved ones that is absolutely unbeatable. There will be no substitute for your presence. Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): You tend to feel deeper into the situation than others will, and that is your strength.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22Dec. 21): You’re not above using sneaky ways to get people to do what you want them to do, especially because what you want them to do is better for them.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Questions get us through. Good questions make the day better.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Be careful how you help people. There will be a natural tendency to rush in and

give what you have, but that’s not always best.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Science and art are not opposites as suggested by some dictionaries. You’ll meld the two in today’s endeavor.

Today’s birthday (June 19): There is little more satisfying than being able to fill in the void where you had a lack of skill. The satisfaction will not come immediately. In fact, it will be preceded by confusion and frustration. But keep at it and you will soon be good at what you need to be good at. There’s a windfall in July. In February, love rains down. Virgo and Libra adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 10, 6, 16, 37 and 18.
