Horoscopes by Holiday

Happy birthday. Domestic improvements will align your head and heart. You'll find new ways to relate to your loved ones and build better relationships all year long.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): At its essence, life is energy. The energy you invest in a project is your life. Is this project worthy of the attention you're giving?

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Many elements converge and you'll have a plan in your head. Put it on paper now while it's fresh.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21): When people can't bear self-scrutiny they blame others. You don't see the point, though. You take full responsibility for whatever part is yours.

CANCER (June 22-July 22): When you're working there are rules. And when you're just playing around there are rules, because the potential for getting hurt is even greater in a seemingly unstructured playground.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Your first idea will be pretty good, but it's not until you reach idea 10 or 12 that you'll get to the next level, which is sheer gold. Are you willing to keep generating new ideas until you break through?

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You weren't expecting to be finished with a job early, and yet you'll hit a point today where it seems to be dragging on beyond what is reasonable. This warrants a thoughtful communication with the others involved.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Remember that bruise that mysteriously appeared? Emotional bruises also can have vague origins, but that doesn't make them hurt any less or show up fainter. If it's sore, assume there's a good reason and baby it until it heals.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): You're joyfully aware of the best that's in you. That doesn't make you clueless or Pollyanna. But why focus on the shadows, when there's so much to do in the light?

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): A figure from your past will be a figure in your future. There's a reason you parted and a reason you reconnected. Just be careful not to let nostalgia cloud your vision.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You want a broader repertoire, and you're willing to put in the practice time to get it. This isn't going to come together overnight.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Ask the others how they're doing and you'll suddenly feel pretty good about your own baggage. The novelty of another person's problems seems to subtract pounds from your own.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): One way to stop a temptation from having power over you is to give into it. The other methods will include you going far out of your way to avoid even having to look at or think about the thing.
