HOROSCOPES BY HOLIDAY:

- BY HOLIDAY MATHIS

ARIES (March 21-April 19).

You may explore unnamed emotions, though they won’t go nameless for long. As soon as you give them a word, they become contained by it, wearing it like a container you can grab hold of and examine from different angles.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You’re gifted with the guts to test-drive ideas. Some things are worth the risk, even if the odds are dicey. Focus solely on what you want.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Watching others relish something can spark desire. Maybe it’s a form of envy, but it’s as natural as nature itself and humans aren’t the only ones who want what the others are having. You’ll leverage the principle today.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Somehow experience seems heightened, like what happens matters more than usual. Your thoughts wander poetic lanes; everything dons a metaphoric­al guise.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Self-mastery isn’t a straightfo­rward affair. Sometimes you feel like doing as your inner boss directs, and then there are days like today when compliance is akin to corralling a troop of cats into formation.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). There’s no such thing as a fresh start without a challenge. If you encounter such an offer, take heed and back away slowly. An element of work, risk and trepidatio­n will be part of any good deal.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).

When your defenses spring to life, it’s actually a gift. It teaches you what you care about and shows you how much. Defensiven­ess points the way to new strategies for protection, strength or letting go, as the case may be.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). What matters to you about your work will be different than what matters to someone else. There are aspects of the project you are willing to put yourself on the line for and that passion points to the value you find meaningful.

SAGITTARIU­S (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Learning thrives in diversity. Body, voice, ear, pen — all instrument­s in the symphony of understand­ing. Restrictin­g to one mode stunts your growth, which will be radiant.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). They say those who refuse to learn are lost causes, but it’s not entirely true. Some are befuddled and just need a different approach or some more careful explaining.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).

Primitive instincts prick up your ear and widen your eyes. You’ll be alert to flattery, opportunit­y, lies, love and any number of other clues as to the inner workings of a situation.

In the pursuit of progress, action outweighs words, intentions and even education. Get moving and the action itself will be your teacher and companion, your mirror and your story.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY:

A powerful perspectiv­e shift marks your solar return. Birds in flight have nothing on you — you soar ever-higher on freedom feelings. Scorpio and Leo adore you. Your lucky numbers are 10, 1, 13, 12 and 15.
