DAY AFTER TOMORROW’S
HOROSCOPE
THURSDAY, MAY 13, 2021
RHYMES WITH ORANGE
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Your
creative endeavors are like a net
you cast into the world. They will
bring you some of the things you
chase, as well as what just hap-
pened to be drifting by, caught
in the middle of that pursuit.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
Getting positive feedback and
encouragement is helpful but
not as helpful as the criticism
that will shine light on where you
can improve. Dare to ask for that,
and you’ll get both respect and
valuable information.
B.C.
DILBERT
BIZARRO
GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
Limits lift with the acceptance of
this truth: Our minds, as reliable
as they may be, can only witness
the smallest slice of any reality.
Wisdom is not knowing more but
embracing that you don’t.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). To-
day, you will read the signs better
than the Oracle at Delphi herself.
Just remember that criticism
isn’t a sign that you shouldn’t be
doing a thing, it’s actually just an
opportunity to get better. Every-
one can get better.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). No-
body likes to do what they are
not good at. When you’re not
enjoying the work, the culprit is a
knowledge gap that needs filling.
Take a breath, stay receptive to
learning, and it will get better.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Since
you can’t prove it either way, you
may as well believe that this des-
tiny unfolding includes the right
people at the right time and the
opportunities that lead to your
ultimate fulfillment and what’s
best for all.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You
made your choice, and now
you’re baffled as to why. You can-
not remember your reasons, if
you had them. Did outside forces
have a hand in this fate? Perhaps,
though it is yours to handle now,
and handle it you will.
NON SEQUITUR
WIZARD OF ID
ROSE IS ROSE
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).
Everyone has their own private
worries. You’re braver about this
than most. You realize that hid-
ing can be more energy than it’s
worth. You also know that your
story cannot inspire other people
if you don’t tell it.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.
21). Taking on too much leads to
diminished results in all catego-
ries. But how do you tamp down
the ambition that swells in you?
Maybe you can’t, but instead of
rushing to tell everyone, air it
somewhere safe, like a diary.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
One difference between a bou-
quet of wild roses and a bouquet
of weeds is that the wild roses
can draw blood. Expensive tastes
require sacrifice that may or may
not be worth it.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
Contrast helps us see. The neg-
ative space is as much a part of
the silhouette as the object itself.
You’ll understand what matters
because it will stand out against
a backdrop of so much that
doesn’t.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). It’s
hard to say why people come
down hard on one another, but
usually, it’s about something dif-
ferent than the situation at hand.
You’ve a gift for steering clear of
drama and staying in your own
business.
THURSDAY’S BIRTHDAY (May
13). Your cosmic birthday
boon is a well-focused supply
of fearlessness. It allows you to
trade in the change you thought
you wanted for a fresh idea just
coming into your realm. Breezy
connections develop into deep
bonds. Lifestyle upgrades will be
affordable and in fact you’ll be
paid to teach others the change
you created in yourself. Virgo and
Aquarius adore you. Your lucky
numbers are: 9, 30, 22, 1 and 10.
