HOROSCOPE
Aries (March 21-April 19): There are things you would throw away if only you were sure that no one else would pick them up and use them. You’re just taking a break.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): You’re aware of those who put on a smile even though they are in pain, because you’ve been there too. Your compassion will make all of the difference to someone today. Gemini (May 21-June 21): The characters in the story feel something, and so do you when you participate in the story in any way even as an innocent bystander.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): You’ll move forward with a venture that has captured your curiosity. Keep your options open as you go, though, because this isn’t what it seems. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Do you sense you should be taking notes? Absorbing the ways of masterful communicators will increase your good fortune later.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Put down your phone and talk to real people in real time. You’ll get into interesting conversations that will later be something you can draw from for energy and inspiration.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): If you live somewhere that has a library, a public gym, a hiking trail, a field, a church or another feature that’s public and free then it’s something to take advantage of today.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Whether it’s a happy story or a shameful one, it’s good to know how it was so that when you change it (and you will) you can appreciate the significance of the change.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22Dec. 21): Your willingness to listen deeply to someone’s (perhaps delusional) side of the story will help you find
peace.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): When you lose your cell connection it’s safe to blame outside interference. Other personal connections are the same today.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You sense tension and can head off conf lict before it happens. Distraction is your best tool. Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): When people are happy they bring their best selves to the party. This is what you bring out in people. Today’s birthday (Sept. 29): Things ramp up slowly, and then good fortune rains on your life. Yours is the lofty ambition, the unreasonable expectation and the outrageous dream that somehow comes true. Your lucky numbers are: 5, 45, 11, 19 and 37.
