HOROSCOPES BY HOLIDAY
Mercury Follows the Sun
Mercury follows the sun into Aquarius, and communication is like a forward-thinking group chat where someone suddenly drops a brilliant idea that makes everyone start seeing the future. Big ideas, social change, technology and unconventional solutions will come together in the weeks ahead. Skip the sentiment in favor of insight or principle.
ARIES (March 21-April 19). You’ve been a bit detached, which has served you well. Think of it as protection. But today, nothing feels stormy or overwhelming. The emotional climate is gentle enough to set your defenses down and experience things more directly.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). The majority won’t get it, and that’s actually a good thing. Relish your moment. Originality makes the world go round. Better to be truly seen as yourself by one person than to blend into the background.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Your high standards aren’t just about turning in good work or making lifestyle choices. You extend your expectations to matters of character and attitude. You seek the company of those who are considerate, fair and compassionate, like you.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Even though you know intellectually that feelings are neutral — not wrong, not right, just information — you still judge yourself for having certain emotions. Instead of analyzing your process, just give yourself credit for having one.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). The one you care for could get attention from different directions, but there is no care quite like yours, and this will become increasingly obvious. Let it be a source of pride to you. You will keep the relationship in balance by never forgetting the value of your love.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Achievements will magically spill over from one domain to another because the way progress is made stays consistent. Skills grow through sequencing, patience and repetition. Break it into manageable pieces and build them one at a time.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Scorekeeping turns giving and receiving into an accounting job instead of a spiritual or pleasurable gesture. Share without worrying about who gave what. The real benefit happens inside your heart as you give.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You’ll gather insight and construct a few stronger boundaries, not to keep people or experiences out of your life but to protect yourself from their effects the way a wetsuit allows the diver to explore depths.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You are loyal to the ones who are loyal to you. You are also loyal to the ones who are (SET ITAL)not(END ITAL) loyal to you. Because to you, loyalty is a value, and the rules do not change when circumstances do.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). It’s hard enough to resist the influence you can feel. But what about the influence that is so much a part of the culture, you don’t even notice it? Awareness keeps you in charge. Ask, “What am I missing?”
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). People react well when they understand the full scope of the situation. Many just don’t have the experience to know the layers and depths in play. This is why it’s important to have the right mentor. Such a person is coming into your life.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). We change. We are changed by one another. To interact with someone is to change them, and to change yourself. Today, you make extra efforts to be sure people are lighter, brighter and better for knowing you.
TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Jan. 20). Life buzzes with fresh experiences in this Year of Firsts — some are on your list, and many drop out of the blue to delight you beyond anything you could have planned. Close relationships are your treasure. More highlights: You’ll break ground and pour the foundation for a project you’ll keep building on for years. You’ll be proud of how you earn money, and you’ll have adventures in foreign territory. Leo and Taurus adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 3, 10, 31, 8 and 21.
CELEBRITY PROFILES: Rainn Wilson recently starred in the landmark absurdist theater masterpiece “Waiting for Godot,” which touches on the existential themes so near and dear to his heart. Far from the megalomaniac Dwight Schrute he portrayed on “The Office,” Wilson’s passion as an artist, author and person exemplifies the humanitarian ideals of his Aquarius sun, Venus and Mars placements.
