HOROSCOPE

- Holiday Mathis

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Jan. 12): In the past, you both failed at and succeed in doing very difficult things. Libra and Virgo adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 10, 8, 6, 18 and 37.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): In order to take care of other people, you have to first take care of yourself, which is what you’ll be doing with a healthy swath of your day.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): When your heart and brain are out of sync, there’s a jagged energy pattern represente­d in your day. So unify your mental and emotional states.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21): Those who bring out your playful side are people you need in your life for the long term. They’ll strengthen your resilience. CANCER (June 22-July 22): There’s power in anger and a practical use for fear, so you wouldn’t want to eradicate those feelings from your life. The antidote for fear and anger is gratitude.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): When you think about the great art of the world, much of it is focused on small details — sunflowers, animals, the sky, food on a table and the like.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Your mental, emotional and spiritual muscles need a workout. Once you fix yourself to a purpose and live it boldly, these faculties will engage.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Just as movies are better when the casting director gets things right, and companies run better with skilled workers in jobs that utilize those talents, your personal life improves with the right people in the right roles.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Is what you’re asking of yourself reasonable? Would it be polite to require it of a family member? Is it more than you’d ask of your best friend? Be kind to yourself. Be fair.

SAGITTARIU­S (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): A smile can mean a lot of different things. It can mean the interactio­n is over. It can be an invitation or a dare. You’ll get a wide variety of smiles to read today.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Because so much private informatio­n is made public through social media, people feel like they know one another when they don’t. Public image is never the whole person. Avoid mistaking the person for their homepage.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Before you can hunker down and get to work, certain things have to be in place. You need a full tummy, a rested body and a mind that’s not racing to solve some personal problem.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Recognize that there’s a power in love. Rituals that center around love will channel that power very effectivel­y today, regardless of individual belief systems.
