DAY AFTER TOMORROW’S
HOROSCOPE
SATURDAY, MAY 22, 2021
RHYMES WITH ORANGE
ARIES (March 21-April 19).
Success in one area of life won’t
automatically bring success in
other areas, but certain basic
principles will apply universally.
The work is best chunked down
into small steps and mastered
in order.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). No
one comes into their own doing
whatever everyone else does. As
long as you are deeply satisfied
by the work you are doing, it’s
OK if you don’t fit in. In fact, it’s a
good sign.
B.C.
DILBERT
BIZARRO
GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
There’s a time to keep score,
and a time to indulge and
share without worrying the
least bit about who gave what.
Scorekeeping turns giving and
receiving into a job or a game
instead of a spiritual act or a
pure pleasure.
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
Anything you do to develop and
learn about yourself, you do for
your relationships. This is why
you don’t have to be in a rela-
tionship to be working on one.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). The
umbrella of indifference may
keep you dry, but it also ob-
scures your view of the sky. The
emotional weather is mild today,
making it a good time to lower
your protections and feel the
cool rain of possibility on your
cheeks.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). It
doesn’t matter what the “it”
is; what matters is how much
you’re willing to focus on it.
Could you focus on it to the
exclusion of anything opposing?
Could you focus on it to the
exclusion of anything at all?
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You’ll
give and hold out hope that
your charity is going to a good
place. Don’t worry. In today’s
case, the real benefit happens
inside your heart as you hand it
NON SEQUITUR
WIZARD OF ID
ROSE IS ROSE
over. The rest is gravy.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). The
real deals happen face to face —
that exciting place where all the
risk is right there and you never
do know what the other person
might do or say. Artful conversa-
tion will separate the amateurs
from the pros.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.
21). You’ll reach a turning point
in your work. Pause here a while
to really consider the options.
Once you pick a direction, its
reversal, though not impossible,
will be awkward and time-con-
suming.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
While you’d rather go into a
game with a strategy, those re-
quire time you won’t have today.
So, the best strategy will be to
stay on high alert for clues and
trust your instincts.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
You possess qualities that seem
so indelibly you, yet new styles
of being are still a possibility.
After all, in the stretch since your
first breath, you’ve already been
many people and more incarna-
tions will unfold.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
Maybe life is fair; maybe it’s not.
No single person is objective or
omniscient enough to know. But
things don’t have to be fair to be
good. An unjust moment will be,
in the end, a glorious gift.
SATURDAY’S BIRTHDAY (May
22). A rebellious spirit pervades.
The rules you break will liberate
you. You’ll attract investors. The
money helps you get a project
off the ground, but there’s even
more value in the time and
lessons you gain. To repeat this
success will bring you exponen-
tially more, so take careful notes,
pay attention and be methodi-
cal. Libra and Sagittarius adore
you. Your lucky numbers are: 4,
44, 38, 5 and 32.
