HOROSCOPE

ARIES (March 21-April 19). When the norms don’t make sense, and people are behaving badly en masse, nonconformity is a moral imperative.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). When your loved ones need encouragement, you have kind words to share. What are the words you give yourself?

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You don’t have to sort life all out in a day, so relax. Your wish to be brighter can be achieved through a simple habit of focusing on better things.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). The first step is to build an image of what you want in your head. It’s harder than it seems because what you don’t want keeps coming to mind instead.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Remorse can be a stage in maturity and growth, but only if it’s a feeling that gets processed and moved through. You won’t let anyone, wallow in remorse.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Imperfection is ubiquitous. Of course a person can be ordinarily flawed yet extremely worthy of being cherished.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Don’t forget to bring your imagination, because the most important things about the situation won’t be obvious.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). There may be practical reasons that it’s hard to find the right person for a role, but rest assured that there are also practical solutions you can employ to compensate for them.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22Dec. 21). Creation is a manipulation of energy. You move one thing to form another, cut together concepts, change the context, bring together different elements.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22Jan. 19). There’s really no getting around it. We have to be considered with compassion and perhaps a sense of humor to be tolerated over the long term.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20Feb. 18). There’s something to figure out, but you won’t be able to, not completely. However, even just trying will engage the higher mental faculties that will get you in harmony with life.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). When people have similar gifts, they can be assets to each other — sharing experiences and knowledge or banding together to compound their powers.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Feb. 10). New excitement overwrites old routines. Leo and Virgo adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 6, 40, 28, 1 and 13.
