HOROSCOPES BY HOLIDAY

Happy birthday. This year brings a breakthrough. You’ll feel that you’ve finally passed into a realm you’ve long wanted to know. The sensation is that of trumpets announcing your arrival and your being warmly presented and accepted. There’s extra money to be made in August, October and November. Wedding bells ring in June.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): A strong inner will guides you, and it seems to be making plans so secretive that you do not even know about them until you are in full swing. Surprises are in store.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You celebrate the obvious, and you also celebrate for no reason at all. The latter will involve your loved ones today, and they will know you truly appreciate and love them.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21): Though you work to get to a place of “no regrets,” there is something good about regret to consider. Whatever you wish you would have done differently you can use to inform your next move.

CANCER (June 22-July 22): Where many would grow impatient, you’ll excel. It’s because you are willing to invest great attention in things for their own sake without expecting an immediate return.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): You may come across work you did long ago and discover that it makes no sense to you now, or you may be utterly baffled by a decision you made way back when. See how far you’ve come?

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Some people are fond of saying “the time is now” at any ol’ time. But you’ve learned through the years that the time is not always now for everything you want to do.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): All snowflakes are about the same color and melt at the exact same temperature, and yet each one is completely unique. Someone will appreciate your originality this afternoon, which may make you melt a little, too.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): There’s little to be gained from speculating about someone’s odd behavior. The only way to get to the bottom of it is to ask. If that seems impolite to you, it probably is.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): It may seem rather glamorous to be “in the loop,” when in actuality it could be much better for you to stay on the outside of said loop, where there’s little chance you’ll be tainted by the residue of drama.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You’ll listen to others to try to understand where they are coming from and what they are going through. It’s because you care, but also because you want to know their motivation and what they want from you.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Nothing is predetermined. There’s no telling what any one individual will do to maximize opportunities or overcome disadvantages.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): You’ll spend many hours of highly focused attention on productive and practical activities. By evening, you may have little psychic energy to invest in your loved ones. Then love will recharge and empower you.
