HOROSCOPES BY HOLIDAY

— Happy birthday. You’ll be touched by the sentiments expressed to you today. The people who know you and those who want to know you will form a delightful mix. Your intentions for June will be realized by month’s end. Your excitement grows through September as you realize that your vision of life is being fleshed outbefore your eyes.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): The price tag won’t give you a good idea of an item’s true value. You’ll be the one to catch amazing bargains and avoid overpriced nonsense if you keep your eyes open.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Just when you think you’re gaining ground, you realize something that sends you back to the beginning. This is ultimately very beneficial. Your results will be much stronger this time.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21): The one you love may or may not reciprocate in the manner you would prefer, but you will get a surprising response either way. Regardless of how it plays, there’s something wonderfully energizing about being caught off guard.

CANCER (June 22-July 22): You will have special privileges because of a relationship or association. Even if you feel you’ve done nothing to deserve the perks, you should enjoy them.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Tense situations settle into a neutral state. Someone who was being difficult last week will now be willing to talk reasonably. Anxieties will be allayed. Everything is working toward resolution.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You know it would be wrong to base your self-worth on someone else’s opinion. That may not be enough to keep you from working for someone’s favor, though. It’s only natural to want approval.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): One person’s attention and support will make your work easier. It also will make it clear who isn’t supporting you and really should be. It will be the start of a conversation that happens in the days to come.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): The day is rich in complexity. It’s as though everything you see is a symbol for another thing entirely.You’ll look deeply into so-called reality to find a larger meaning. You want the story behind the story.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): There’s an action you would like to turn into a permanent fixture in your behavior - to the extent that it becomes a part of your personality. Repeat the response hundreds of times until your brain accepts it as automatic.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You can’t will yourself to take pleasure in an experience. You either feel it or you don’t.That’s what makes pleasure an expression of your true self.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You make a habit of celebrating people. You need only get a slight inkling that there’s something to celebrate, and you’re on the job - and good at it, too.Your thoughtfulness will be greatly appreciated.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Your prize appears on the horizon - and just when you’d almost given up! Reach forward with all of your might and imagine that destiny is rushing toward you, arms extended.
