HOROSCOPES BY HOLIDAY

Happy birthday. You’ve enjoyed a sense of rootlessness and freedom, but at the start of 2013, you’ll dig in once more and establish ties. Love bonds are cemented in words and ink. Big deals come together in February. March brings family additions. Aries and Cancer people adore you.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): You may see someone in action and think, “I can do that, too.” This is not a passing observation. You can and you will.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You’re on top of your game. Most of what you need you can provide yourself or make arrangements to get.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21): You burn bright today, and your energy could use a worthy outlet. Consider dedicating yourself to helping another person.

CANCER (June 22-July 22): You are in the mood to keep your private life to yourself. In this age of over-sharing, your refusal to give TMI (too much information) will be seen as a refreshing.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): You have maturity beyond your years, and so you don’t see eye-to-eye with a friend your age. Steer clear of hot topics for the next three days.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You don’t have a lot of time to spend with friends, and so you are wise to be highly selective about the company you keep.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): You don’t need an olive branch to be an agent of peace. You were born knowing how to bring people together. You build bridges with your words.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): If a person gives bad service, don’t continue doing business with that person.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): What matters most to you today is the same thing that mattered most to you yesterday: improving the lives of those closest to you.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): It’s always nice when the universe speaks to you in clear, concise terms. You’ve wondered whether a past decision was wise, and now you’ll get a definitive answer.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You’ll embrace the change others resist. When people see you moving forward unafraid, some will be inspired, and others will feel threatened.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Realizing that to err is human, you can support a person without supporting that person’s latest (baffling) endeavor.
