DAY AFTER TOMORROW’S
HOROSCOPE
SATURDAY, JUNE 22, 2019
RHYMES WITH ORANGE
B.C.
DILBERT
BIZARRO
ARIES (March 21-April 19).
Someone is behaving in a way you
don’t understand. Consider that
this person may be complying
with needs and desires that are
not obvious to you. They may not
want to reveal their motivations.
Observe to get more information.
that comes with doing your part.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
The stoics focus on temptations
resisted, passions opposed and
infirmities mastered. Not fun.
When you want something that’s
good for you, all of those things
happen naturally as you focus on
your wholesome desire.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
Clearly defined relationships make
everything go smoothly and ac-
cording to plan. The trouble is that
the more intimate is a relationship,
the harder it is to define. And with
the closest relationships, defini-
tions are practically absurd.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). The
path to fulfilled wishes is littered
with practical impediments, barri-
ers of psychological resistance and
other annoying limits to contend
with, all of which you will rise up
and over.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
The upside of frustration is that
it shows you exactly what’s not
working and to what extent. The
level of frustration you feel directly
corresponds to how far off the
mark the situation is from your
expectation of it.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Be
careful not to equate rest with lazi-
ness. They are not the same thing.
Laziness is a decision to under-
achieve. It’s driven by fear. Rest is
a necessary part of achievement’s
cycle, driven by nature’s mainte-
nance system.
WIZARD OF ID
ROSE IS ROSE
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
Imagined problems can have as
much impact (if not more) as real
problems can have. The good part
about imagined problems is that
they can be solved the instant you
change your mind about them.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Exemplify-
ing his typical clever humor, your
sign-mate Andy Warhol claimed
to be a “deeply superficial person.”
You’ll relate today as you bring a
solemn level of attention to what
some might consider a trivial
matter.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). To
you, your project is a project.
But to someone else it might be
a learning opportunity, a social
experiment, a way of gaining
leverage in a situation or a game.
Be aware of what everyone is
getting out of the situation.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). It’s eas-
ier for some people (perhaps most
people) to say yes than it is to say
no. Consider the first yes a false
answer. And gently press further
into the conversation. It’s not a real
agreement until the third yes.
SATURDAY’S BIRTHDAY (June
22). Even as you focus on the big
things this solar year — such as
cultivating a stellar attitude and
refining your overall purpose and
direction — the tiniest details will
come together with incredible
elegance, as though a thousand
angels are knitting together the
fabric of your life. And maybe they
are. Your family grows in January.
Gemini and Libra adore you. Your
lucky numbers are: 8, 30, 29, 1
and 7.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). If you
can’t do anything about it, then
it’s not a problem. Rather, it’s a
circumstance. Deal with problems,
and the circumstances may or may
not change. Either way, you’ll have
the satisfaction and confidence
NON SEQUITUR
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).
You’ve a secret that helps you
move through events with grace,
and the secret is this: Change itself
doesn’t hurt. What hurts is our re-
sistance to change. We can always
choose not to resist.
