A8 THE ASTORIAN • THuRSdAy, July 15, 2021 FRANK AND ERNEST TOMORROW’S HOROSCOPE FRIDAY, JULY 16, 2021 ARIES (March 21-April 19). Even though you sometimes resist au- thority, you also respect anything and anyone who can teach you. You’ll drop all resistance to road signs, guides and instructions. Life is made easier by simply following the directions. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Your powers of observation are so dialed in that you’re verging on the telepathic. Hearing what other people are thinking is not the hard part. The hard part is verifying your correctness in the matter. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Boring the audience is a terrible sin in the world of entertainment and the norm of polite society. You’ll liven things up with charm and snappiness, and employ acting skill, too, as you tolerate the long-windedness of others. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Those who point out another person’s faults are implying that, by comparison, they have fewer faults of their own, which is hardly ever the case, and even if it were, bringing attention to it is a big red flag-sized fault. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). With mul- tilevel awareness, you’ll pick up on minute expressions of interest and make split-second decisions about whether to continue the entertainment, holding and lever- aging the attention, or to dodge, hide from or redirect it. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Used to a particular rhythm of external assurances, your ego is scared to step into environments where reception will be uncertain. Su- perstar move: Challenge yourself to care less about them and more about your purpose. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You can trust in your deeper knowing, even when it has yet to emerge to top layers of consciousness. You have goals that even you do not know about. Your being vibrates with an agenda you’ve only start- ed to understand. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Changing yourself is challenging enough. Changing someone else is not only difficult but possibly futile. Even in the unlikely event that it works, your imposed change would be temporary and invite a backlash. Live and let live. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Sleep, vitamins, sunshine, movement, the positive influence of optimistic friends and media … it’s obvious what’s good for you, and the one who inspires you to actually partake in good things is great indeed. THATABABY PHOEBE AND HER UNICORN CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Creativity is at a high. Keep striv- ing to turn your inspiration and emotion into something concrete. People will like and resonate with the products of your expression. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You’ll set up rules, systems and rewards aimed at building mental patterns. If anyone is going to change your mind, you want it to be you and not some tricky tech- nology employed by a corpora- tion to seduce and control you. LOLA PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). It is in your nature to extend whatever care is needed, and the more you notice the need, the more need there is to be noticed. Just be sure to care for yourself first and foremost. FRIDAY’S BIRTHDAY (July 16). Your sense of fun is going strong, and you’ll agree to adventures you’d not have thought of if it weren’t for your growing circle of forward-thinking friends. New additions in September. You’ll be paid handsomely to take on re- sponsibilities, but the money will turn out to be the least valuable aspect to the experience. Scorpio and Pisces adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 40, 22, 5, 28 and 1. SIX CHIX MUTTS BABY BLUES ZITS
