HOROSCOPE

- Holiday Mathis

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (April 16): Your talents will be sought after. There are a plethora of creative situations for you to involve yourself in. Sagittariu­s and Virgo adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 8, 4, 49, 2 and 10.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): The salesman keeps dropping the price because he knows that once you leave the showroom, chances are you won’t be back. For clarity, get some distance between you and the final decision.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You are fun to be around, and people like working with you. Try other modalities out, too, though, especially when it’s your turn to be in charge. Overusing “fun” could hurt your ability to lead.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21): In order to put your best into the things that matter most to you, a small sacrifice will be made. Probably, this has to do with giving up a habit, attitude or possession. It won’t hurt. CANCER (June 22-July 22): Returning to the things you did when you were less experience­d will bring comfort, perspectiv­e and reassuranc­e. You’ve changed and adapted to deal with all that happened. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Should you say “no” to the things that are clearly outside of your expertise, or should you say “yes” and stretch to the challenge? What’s the time commitment? To experience something new for an hour will be worth the inconvenie­nce. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You make people feel comfortabl­e, and therefore they are more likely to say yes to you. Part of this has to do with consistenc­y of action and attitude.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): One way to test a relationsh­ip is to move furniture together, or execute another task that requires teamwork. If it goes well, it’s something to celebrate. If it’s a major pain, there might be communicat­ion issues to work out.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Your options may seem frustratin­gly limited, but in reality, there are choices that have nothing to do with the ones you are considerin­g. Think broader. If it weren’t for the things in front of you, what else would you choose? SAGITTARIU­S (Nov. 22-Dec.

21): It’s a day of working out minor difference­s, which you’ll do like a champ. Then, a good question to ask is, “How can I support you going forward?” CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.

19): You’re excellent at reading people, especially when something is bothering them. Better yet, you’re not afraid to gently open up a dialogue. Because of this, you’ll facilitate connection and maybe even healing.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): As you make your pitch, go for the gold. Not all “yes” answers are equal. Some actually mean “no” and others mean “maybe.” A committed “yes” is not just an answer; it’s a line of action.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Even though you are not responsibl­e for a situation, you take full responsibi­lity for your reaction to it. Note that cameras may be involved, as they so often are these days.
