DAY AFTER TOMORROW’S
HOROSCOPE
THURSDAY, DECEMBER 2, 2021
RHYMES WITH ORANGE
ARIES (March 21-April 19).
Breathe easy, take frequent
breaks from your work and get
plenty of sleep and exercise.
Make your own pleasure and
well-being a higher priority.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
Competition for a certain spot
will be stiff. Just because you
have what it takes doesn’t mean
it’s worth the trouble. Think more
about what you want and how
well the current offerings really
fit the bill.
B.C.
DILBERT
BIZARRO
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). It
seems like everyone needs you
at once, and maybe that’s part
of the deal when you’re good at
what you do. Keep in mind that
you have the choice of when to
respond. Other people’s urgency
doesn’t have to be yours.
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
Your memory will be strong and
undiscerning, recalling import-
ant and useless facts alike. But
the thing is, you won’t know
which is which, so revel in it all.
Sometimes the slightest detail is
the key to everything.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). If you
need another reason to get out
and socialize, consider that you’ll
see yourself objectively as some-
one else experiences you for the
first time. Valuable insights will
be gained from your interactions.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). There
are those who think they are
good at something regardless
of how good they actually are.
Don’t let yourself be bamboozled
by overconfidence. Ask for proof
of skill. Getting the right person
for the job is a game changer.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You
have the freedom to believe as
you wish and openly express it.
This is a freedom people have
fought and died for and you
don’t take it for granted, even as
you exercise the opposite right
to keep things to yourself.
NON SEQUITUR
WIZARD OF ID
ROSE IS ROSE
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).
Your attempts to rearrange your
world seem futile because they
are. These moves and inquiries
won’t eliminate suffering, only
transmute it. The way to elimi-
nate the problem is to greet the
moment and accept it exactly
how it is.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.
21). Stories can be like hot meals
that cool off as soon as they’re
served. Timing is everything.
Knowing what to trim is key. It’s
worth working out before you
tell it because your stories reflect
you.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
One theory is that money buys
you the freedom to arrange life
to your preferences. In practice it
will not be so. The more you can
do with creativity and strategy
the better, as money will compli-
cate things beyond belief.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
You can handle any nonemotion-
al truth on its face. You can work
with any fact and deal with stark
realities. It’s when feelings get in-
volved that the difficulties arise.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). In
determinate games, the starting
player can always win with the
right strategy. In indeterminate
games, two perfect players could
play on forever. You will play with
elegance in an indeterminate
game, for instance, love.
THURSDAY’S BIRTHDAY (Dec.
2). When you’re not so sure
what’s in your mind and heart,
your feet will know. They’ll take
you out the door and straight to
the hidden goals of your soul.
Trust yourself! The new year
brings clarity, peace, adventure,
success and love. A lucky streak
starts with the exchange of
property or a significant sale.
Aquarius and Taurus adore you.
Your lucky numbers are: 4, 2, 22,
29 and 48.
