HOROSCOPES

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Half-hearted commitment won’t produce half-hearted results, rather it will produce no results. The price for what you want is a full commitment.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). This is a lucky day, especially when you add a little elbow grease, curiosity and research to the equation. A little work will improve your lot.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You read people well. You know what they look like when they’re interested in something. There’s no onesize-fits-all answer to what people want today.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Your goal is uncommon, so you don’t have explicit instructions about how to get there. You’ll get to make it up as you go. Keep at it.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Take a cue from your guiding planet, the sun. The sun doesn’t worry about giving equally to everyone; it shines for all.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Information is floating in; this is no coincidence. You’re meant to learn, so gather it up and wait; there’s more to come over.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Whatever resistance you have to your work, you’ll still manage to get it done. You might decide to drop the friction; it only makes things harder.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). There’s a discomfort in having to explain yourself. It does imply that others have a right to know the ins and outs of your decision-making.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). It’s too soon to say whether you like or agree with what is going on. Break it down, try to figure out the smaller pieces, then put it back together.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Awkwardness happens. It’s the natural byproduct of daring attempts and trying unfamiliar things. So much of life is awkward.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You’re doing more than you used to and possibly more than you should. Irritations in the afternoon signal the need for rest.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). The plot turns meta. Thinking into the thinking will be necessary. It takes a secure person to be objective about the inner world.

YOUR BIRTHDAY TODAY (Jan. 16). You learned manners and social behaviors at home, but you’ll seek the extra polish that makes you comfortable in unfamiliar situations. Learning different customs opens the world to you. An educational pursuit will connect you with friends, money and love. Virgo and Pisces adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 4, 33, 2, 21 and 16.
