BLONDIE
DAY AFTER TOMORROW’S
HOROSCOPE
MONDAY, JANUARY 27, 2020
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Tri-
umph always goes to those who
endure, the reason being that
endurance itself is the triumph.
Wins are celebrated and then
forgotten. Attendance records
remain.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
You weren’t aware while it was
happening, but you’ve changed.
You’re different. For this reason,
you can’t go back and contin-
ue the old scene; you can only
return to transcend it. You can
only go back as the new you.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
You’ve a gift for knowing the
right thing to say. It sometimes
means being frank or crass. You
cater the style to the audience.
Even so, there will be instances
when words just aren’t the me-
dium — action is.
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
Would you believe that peo-
ple working together form an
enticement that’s even stronger
than people playing togeth-
er? It’s because there’s great
comfort in the structure of work.
Jobs build bonds.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). When
you really think about those you
serve, your job becomes easier.
You expend less effort guessing
about what to do and hone in
with great empathy on those
who need what you can give.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). In
moments of loss, people cannot
see what will be gained. But
you’ve been through enough
life to know that what’s gained
is often such a better fit. So you
trust life, and help others trust,
too.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Yes,
you are the sign of the scales.
That doesn’t mean you were
meant to be stuck in a back-and-
forth pattern. When balance is
hard to achieve, maybe you’re
measuring the wrong things.
Time to reassess your values.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).
Just because a thing must be
dealt with doesn’t mean it must
be tackled head-on. Sidle up.
That’s a nonconfrontational po-
sition that many people respond
well to.
RHYMES WITH ORANGE
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.
21). Maybe the key to your hap-
piness is one of those automatic
ones that stays in your pocket
and unlocks when you’re near
enough to the door. More likely,
your happiness can be unlocked
through face recognition.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
Anxious about the future? Make
a plan. Anxious about the plan?
Do a brainstorm. Anxious about
a brainstorm? Just keep your
hand moving around the page
and all kinds of answers will
come.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
Direct loving kindness inwardly
follows up as the Metta medita-
tors do with a sequence of com-
passion that expands evermore
inclusively toward loved ones,
strangers, enemies and the far
reaches of the universe.
B.C.
DILBERT
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
Success is within your control.
You just don’t know what to do
yet. It will be tempting to dive
in, but it’s better to start with
research. A systematic approach
will take you far.
MONDAY’S BIRTHDAY (Jan.
27). You’ve seen earthquakes
of the soul; you’ve stood in the
ruins; you’ve built the new city.
Now you’ll draw on those expe-
riences and start running things.
You’ll learn whom to trust, lean
on, delegate to. You’re ultra-or-
ganized, and your sense of
purpose carries over to others.
Summer brings foreign travel.
Taurus and Virgo adore you. Your
lucky numbers are: 2, 39, 33, 18
and 45.
