HOROSCOPE
SATURDAY, DECEMBER 4, 2021
RHYMES WITH ORANGE
B.C.
DILBERT
ARIES (March 21-April 19).
There are plenty of good ideas
zinging around, but without a
structure for accountability it
will be difficult to get people
to do what they say they’ll do.
Make a deadline-based plan
including verification, reward
and punishment.
plan it and get busy creating a
destiny worthy of you.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
When something doesn’t work
the first few times, it’s hard to
know whether you need more
tries or an entirely different ap-
proach. In the current case, it’s a
little of both. Do more research.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.
21). When you’re caught in the
traffic jams of life, stay patient.
Even the most monumental
of accomplishments can only
happen on a moment-to-mo-
ment basis.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
While you’re no slave to the
clock, you can’t get around
the fact that the world runs on
agreements around when and
where. To avoid rushing around,
give yourself a wide margin for
the unexpected glitch.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
An endeavor will be so involv-
ing, you’ll slip into a state of
flow. It’s just you and the task
at hand. The input or reaction
of the outside world will mean
nothing to you — if you notice
it at all.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). As
you check your current status
against where you’d like to be,
give yourself plenty of credit
for things like taking care of
yourself. Because getting to the
goal won’t be half as important
as how you feel when you get
there.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
You’ll have no problem getting
attention, but what matters is
what happens afterward. Make
it count. Be ready to lead people
somewhere. This is a perfect
time to prepare.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Context
will be extremely important to
making the right impression.
Meet in a place that will keep
you feeling comfortable and
powerful. Bonus points for good
lighting.
BIZARRO
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
People on the same team won’t
necessarily act like they are.
They may be overly competitive
and noncollaborative. The im-
portant thing is to stay relaxed
and alert. This dynamic will only
sharpen your game.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You’d
love to know what’s coming up,
but this is no time to stare into
the ethereal mist. Make it hap-
pen. Choose your adventure,
NON SEQUITUR
WIZARD OF ID
ROSE IS ROSE
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).
New ventures will be meaty and
will come with a side order of
inconvenience and a big glass of
chaos to wash it all down. Hang
in there for the complimentary
dessert, as sweet as it is just.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
There are those whose relation-
ship with the truth is tenuous
at best. Maybe half of what
they say is real, but which half?
Take the whole expression as
metaphor though, and a deeper
truth emerges.
SATURDAY’S BIRTHDAY (Dec.
4). Your gorgeous attitude is a
net to pull in fascinating friends,
lucrative opportunities and
unexpected astonishments.
You make it look effortless, but
your charisma takes work. Your
goal of greater awareness and
better listening seems humble
to some, but it also happens to
crack open the treasure chest.
Pisces and Scorpio adore you.
Your lucky numbers are: 4, 22,
28, 1 and 40.
