FRANK AND ERNEST
TOMORROW’S
HOROSCOPE
FRIDAY, DECEMBER 17, 2021
ARIES (March 21-April 19).
You enjoy who you are, and
this makes it possible for you to
get much more pleasure out of
every experience. Even daily er-
rands and simple tasks will give
you a peaceful, easy feeling.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
Being an adult will have a lot
to do with sticking to what’s
constructive. This may involve
seeing, and acting like you don’t
see, or listening to it all and
focusing only on the part that is
actionable.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You
have three eyes. Two for looking
and one for seeing. The third
eye does have certain known
blinders. For instance, smolder-
ing passion is a smoky irritant to
say the least!
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
Knowing a lot about a person
isn’t the same thing as knowing
a person. You’ll get a chance to
understand who a person really
is, which will be very different
from what can be assumed from
a social media profile or resume.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Among
the scariest words uttered be-
tween friends is the inquisitive
trifecta, “Can we talk?” Today it’s
better not to. Everyone’s actions
are saying enough. Read those,
and save the conversation for
more puzzling fare.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
You’re feeling reserved and
there’s a benefit to holding back.
After all, not every story needs
an answer story from the per-
sonal history archives. You’ll be
appreciated for your excellent
listening.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Hav-
ing things in common will bring
you together. Making a connec-
tion takes more than together-
ness, though. It’s the differences
that ignite the spark. People
who are too much alike aren’t so
interesting to one another.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). The
competitive mood. It starts with
knowing you can beat someone
else and then realizing that the
thing to beat is the status quo,
or perhaps your own personal
best.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.
21). You’re not trying to deceive
anyone, and no one means
to deceive you. But there are
dynamics in play that cause
people to behave a little differ-
ently. Have fun getting to know
a heightened version of your
personality.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
Don’t worry about saying the
right thing. The words are not
what move social discourse
along. Hold the space, be inter-
ested, and you’ve won.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
Impulsive people need some-
one thoughtful next to them
to temper their flaring energy.
You’re the stabilizer who will
anticipate the other person’s
move and encourage all to take
a pause before rushing into the
wrong thing.
THATABABY
PHOEBE AND HER UNICORN
LOLA
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). The
only thing standing between
you and the goal is a knowledge
gap. Get the expert. Learn what
you didn’t know that you didn’t
know. The right one will be well
worth your investment.
FRIDAY’S BIRTHDAY (Dec. 17).
You’re onto something — you
know it and this year the world
will know it too. Deals get made,
papers signed, bonds braided.
You’ll flip the script in February.
In May you’ll give generously
and receive unexpectedly.
Powers of attraction will be at
an all-time high in September,
so focus well and celebrate the
spoils. Libra and Virgo adore you.
Your lucky numbers are: 9, 5, 11,
21 and 17.
