BIZARRO
ARIES (March 21-April 19).
You’re open to seeing yourself
how others see you. Their opin-
ions aren’t necessarily more ac-
curate than yours, but the blend
of several views creates the kind
of clear picture that makes obvi-
ous your next success move.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).
You don’t have to say or do
anything for people to feel your
energy. You take care of your
own heart, happiness and focus.
You send out the sweet, attrac-
tive energy, and people respond
in kind.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
One impediment to learning
is thinking you should know
something already. Better to
admit what you don’t know
and gather experience than to
unnecessarily stumble around
in the dark.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.
21). You’ll be inspired by the
people you meet and the stories
you hear. You may not realize
the good you do for others just
by giving your supportive atten-
tion and listening well.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Cer-
tainty causes you to take great
risks and use powerful tactics to
further the mission. But if there’s
even a shadow of a doubt, as
there will be today, watch and
wait for more illumination on
the matter.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19). As gardeners know well,
many seeds look alike. It’s early,
and the ideas are folded in on
themselves — pure, featureless
potential. Put them in dirt to see
what happens. If it’s not what
you want, you can always try
again.
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
You’ll step into a role you hav-
en’t played before — a natural
fit. It’s new territory and yet
oddly familiar, which allows for
ease and grace in these early
stages.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
Conforming to certain cultural
norms is sometimes necessary
to survive, fit in and influence
others. But conforming all the
time is soul-crushing. You feel a
rebellion coming on.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Brain-
storm new friendship rules. With
good social boundaries, you
can avoid having another one
of those conversations in which
people feel better after sharing
their feelings and pain with you,
but you feel worse.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
The bear who wants honey bad
enough is willing to risk bee
stings. You’re much cleverer,
though, and will stand by
watching until you figure out
how honey can be had without
a chance of getting stung.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). The
resolve has always been in you;
it just hasn’t been brought out
quite this powerfully before.
Now exciting projects, ideas
and plans give you a surge of
transformational courage.
THURSDAY’S BIRTHDAY (Sept.
23). The encouragement of your
surroundings will be unmistak-
able. All you have to do is take
steps toward the destination
and wild bounty pours forth.
This is a product of excellent
alignment. What you need to
give is precisely what they need
to receive and vice versa. Keep it
rolling; luck follows movement.
Leo and Aquarius adore you.
Your lucky numbers are: 18, 2,
22, 16 and 5.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). May-
be it seems like you’re acting
out of character, but really, it’s
just that certain people bring
out rarely seen sides of you. The
unpredictability of this fasci-
nates even you.
