DAY AFTER TOMORROW’S
HOROSCOPE
THURSDAY, APRIL 23, 2020
RHYMES WITH ORANGE
ARIES (March 21-April 19).
Trying to push something out
of your mind is a sure way to
drain your willpower quickly.
You’ll have greater wells of
self-control when you face
what’s going on and create
some if/then strategies.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
Before making a purchase,
assess what you have. By
employing a little forethought,
you’ll save money. Bonus: It’s a
way of remembering and being
accountable for past decisions.
B.C.
DILBERT
GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
Ignorance is sometimes un-
avoidable, as no one is born
knowing everything. Assume
that people really can learn
if incentivized properly and
taught effectively.
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
Among your most sincere core
beliefs is the idea that each
person is great in their own
way. Therefore, it is often inap-
propriate to make comparisons
or value one person’s efforts
while devaluing the efforts of
another.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). All peo-
ple are both equal and unique
and there was never a time
when you believed otherwise.
Money and status may change
the power dynamics of a situa-
tion, but they don’t change the
value of any person.
BIZARRO
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
You know you can make lives
better, but you don’t know how
you’re going to do it. That’s the
fun part. You’ll brainstorm and
create until you come up with
the sort of care that only you
can give.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). One
problem is tied to another, and
luckily the solution is similarly
tied. As naturalist John Muir
said, “When we try to pick out
anything by itself, we find it
NON SEQUITUR
WIZARD OF ID
ROSE IS ROSE
hitched to everything else in
the universe.”
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).
Pride goeth before the fall.
Then again, “the fall” is an inev-
itability of life that could just as
easily follow shame, humility,
cheer or neutrality. You may as
well be proud of yourself.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.
21). The ones who love you
have already seen you through
many incarnations in this life-
time and are happy with each
different version that comes
along. You afford the same
grace to them.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19). You can avoid trouble by
making it a policy not to loan
money. Give it instead, if you
are so moved. Furthermore,
when you do a job, try to get
paid upfront.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
You are openhearted and
curious. Once you decide what
you want to do, you’ll quickly
gather up everything you need
to know to make it happen.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
When you love someone, you
don’t need a lot of reasons for
it, although it’s fun to think
about what they are. Relatedly,
enjoy the good mood you fall
into, as unfounded as it may
be.
THURSDAY’S BIRTHDAY (April
23). This year calls up your
most open, ebullient and lucky
self. In at least three instances,
you will seem able to conjure
just what you need to solve
a problem or create an excit-
ing new circumstance. You’ll
become more powerful as you
learn methods of serving and
leading. You’ll be an invaluable
asset to a close-knit crew. Virgo
and Gemini adore you. Your
lucky numbers are: 3, 50, 22, 37
and 11.
