DAY AFTER TOMORROW’S
HOROSCOPE
THURSDAY, JULY 1, 2021
RHYMES WITH ORANGE
ARIES (March 21-April 19).
You’ll get so much more done
because you’re doing it for the
right reasons. Curiosity and
wonder are motivators with
seemingly endless fuel. They
give and give.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Your
own self-interest is certainly part
of what motivates you to act to-
day, but it’s only one small con-
sideration of the many concerns
vying for your attention. You’ll
carefully weigh out options to
determine your next move.
B.C.
DILBERT
BIZARRO
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). A
smack to the ego can be more
devastating than a physical
hit, and ego wounds can be as
debilitating as bodily injuries.
The difference is that destruction
to the ego makes a person much
stronger.
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
You’ll say the thing you wanted
to hear. You’ll give the help you
wish someone would have given
to you. You’ll provide the very
thing you most needed. It’s good
to be you. Capable!
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). A signal
is coming from far off, barely
audible, but annoying … like
a drippy faucet in a downstairs
bathroom. The question on
repeat: “Can I? Can I? Can I?” Yes,
you can. You can, and you will.
Go down and shut off this doubt.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). It’s
OK not to understand every-
thing right away. In fact, it’s
better this way. The information
assimilates in its own time, when
it has relevance to you and when
you’re ready to do something
about it.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You
don’t have to know what the
conflict is to know that one ex-
ists. It’s not always worth getting
into. One way to erase tension
from your life is to use your feet
to walk away.
NON SEQUITUR
WIZARD OF ID
ROSE IS ROSE
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).
Loosen your grip on the controls
and give yourself a wide berth,
too, because the most interesting
things are going to happen quite
on their own and in the margins.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
You think you’re performing well
despite your mixed feeling about
the venues and institutions, and
the few bad habits helping you
cope. Then again, maybe you
owe your good performance to
this mixed back of influences.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
Everyone is the star of their own
show, though with some, you
wouldn’t know it. They seem to
turn their story into an ensemble
piece, and then take a seat in the
audience to watch it play out.
Not a bad tactic to try out today.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
Get some distance between
you and the problem. When you
return, the solution will follow
you back. Also, “home” is not a
problem, but creating a tempo-
rary distance from home will also
bring a favorable outcome. It’s
just time.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
Today’s outcome is a small bird,
precariously perched, listening
to the wind for answers. It could
fall one way or the other. It could
start building a nest where it is. It
could fly to the heavens. You are
the wind. Start whispering.
THURSDAY’S BIRTHDAY (July
1). The big change of the year
will be astounding, though not
sudden or dramatic; it will hap-
pen by degrees. First, you’re the
car, and then you’re the driver.
Before you know what you want,
you do what you’re told. Then
you learn of a glittering destina-
tion and a vision comes together
in your mind to fuel this journey.
Aquarius and Aries adore you.
Your lucky numbers are: 14, 5, 30,
7 and 18.
