Observe until you have a gut feeling about what to do next. If no feeling comes, enjoy the silence and space. After all, silence and space is what gives life form. 3^ RHYMES WITH ORANGE I'VE PO/MÉ MANSIONS, CASTLEC... HOW '&OUT you ? WHAT'S* IT LIKE. HAUNT/AIG AN IGLOO? ] TAURUS (April 20-May 20). There’s a higher level of intel- lectual activity going on today, and you’ll get the chance to share ideas with people who think alike and differently. You’ll challenge and inspire one another. a.Pfctc a-14 R.*'yi*tii*iHkof*A 9 t.con* pj GEMINI (May 21-June 21). The best way to find out who can keep a secret and who can’t is to observe how people do with the information you give them — before you tell them anything you actually would want kept secret. B.C. Y o i S O K A Y , VtfXFP DILBERT I THOUGHT YOU SAID UJE UOULD BE TESTING THE SOFTWARE BY TODAY. NOPE. I NEVER SAID ANYTHING REtAOTELY LIKE THAT. I CANT LET THIS GO. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). As a rule, people don’t com- pletely know the landscape of their own psyche. Today, you’re as likely to be surprised by your own behavior as you are by the behavior of another. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). It’s sometimes hard to tell wheth- er you’re excited or anxious. Either way, there’s a job to be done. Breathe through the nerves and remind yourself what matters here. I DIDN'T THINK YOU COULD. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). People who think they can’t do much about their situation will not pay nearly as close atten- tion as those who are actively looking for all the opportunities they believe are around them. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Unreasonable purchases have their place and time. As fellow Virgo Dorothy Parker suggest- ed, “Take care of the luxuries and the necessities will take care of themselves.” BIZARRO Fa¿elook.¿om/ Bi£arroComi<& MONDAY’S BIRTHDAY (Aug. 17). Your cosmic birthday includes lofty expectations met by new people. The plot takes unexpected turns in the thrill ride that is the end of the year. Highlights of 2021 include a legendary family event, a professional opportunity and a habit change or skill enhance- ment that brings your game to the next level. Cancer and Sagittarius adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 9, 20, 22, 1 and 17. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). The people around you with similar backgrounds and experiences will not be the most useful to you now. The objective and unbiased eye is invaluable, and it only comes from an outsider with a differ- ent experience. ©2020 SiMREb STUPiQS UJcuj wo'® SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You’re only interested in the people who are difficult to know and the prizes that are hard to win. Perhaps, it’s because you have a feeling you can succeed with this. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Resist persuasion. Those who attempt to sway you in any particular direction are more concerned about their own agenda than yours. Action would be premature. CANCER (June 22-July 22). The victory is yours, which is weird because you didn’t even know you were in a competi- tion. Do not let that stop you from using what you’re given. £>st b, Ciaîlai SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Consider, just for one day, doing hardly a thing beyond showing up. It’s what most people are doing. Pull back and you’ll be suddenly aware of, for better or worse, what a whole lot of extra effort you normally put in.
