DAY AFTER TOMORROW’S
HOROSCOPE
THURSDAY, JUNE 20, 2019
RHYMES WITH ORANGE
ARIES (March 21-April 19). The
key to pleasure is brevity. Fast
conversations, quick visits, pre-
sentations that wow and delight
despite (or more likely, because
of) their short runtime.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). To
be broadminded is to accept that
your beliefs and opinions repre-
sent but one point of view. Big
brains make room for multiple
theories, as there are many things
that could be true at once.
B.C.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Heal-
ing is miraculous — a sweet relief
— and yet one that goes so often
uncelebrated because having
things in working order seems
like it should be the norm. To
appreciate whatever stage you’re
in is to welcome greater vitality.
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
People who feel the situation has
gotten out of their control will
lash out. You can reel it back in
with a question, as long as you
avoid one that starts with “why?”
Ask a “how” question instead
such as, “How can we solve it?”
DILBERT
BIZARRO
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Restless-
ness isn’t always best addressed
by indulging your wanderlust. If
you let distraction win, or keep
running to the next thing, you
won’t get anything done. It’s time
to buckle in and finish what you
started.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
Relationships have costs, just like
other things. The time you spend
together, the attention you give,
the ways you acknowledge one
another — these are all outlays
of effort. Some people are more
expensive than others.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You’ll
get bored quickly, not because
you’re “boring” but because you
feel that you are, in some way,
trapped with a problem that’s too
easy or familiar to be interesting
to you. Don’t stay there. Free
yourself.
NON SEQUITUR
WIZARD OF ID
ROSE IS ROSE
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).
Verify your sources and don’t talk
about anything of which you
don’t have firsthand knowledge.
If you can steer clear of miscom-
munication and stick with the
original route you mapped out,
you’ll be ahead in the race.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.
21). You may understand your
position, resources and the
conditions around you, but until
you also know what the competi-
tion is bringing to this game, you
don’t have enough information.
Find out what you’re up against.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
There will be big opportunities
around you today. You can tell
who the important people are.
They don’t talk much about
themselves; they don’t have to.
You hardly ever hear them say, “I,”
as they act on behalf of many.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
You don’t want to be universally
attractive. Universal attraction
brings all sorts of trouble and
sorting with it. You want to be
attractive to the small margin of
people you can serve the best.
Aim your offerings there.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
You’ve no problem expressing
yourself now. Circumstances
have culminated to give urgency
to the emotions inside you. It’s
actually easier for you to do the
surprising thing than to do the
expected thing.
THURSDAY’S BIRTHDAY (June
20). What starts as a mere curios-
ity becomes a full-blown mission.
The months to come show you
collecting clues, skills and team
members. September brings a
trophy. Domestic changes will
ultimately support and inspire you
as you daringly adapt to trends
and welcome influences. An in-
vestment pays in November. Virgo
and Taurus adore you. Your lucky
numbers are: 4, 30, 19, 33 and 5.
