HOROSCOPE
MONDAY, JANUARY 31, 2022
RHYMES WITH ORANGE
B.C.
DILBERT
ARIES (March 21-April 19). To
honor your fire, give yourself
permission to be as intense as
you want to be about certain
things within particular bound-
aries outlined by you. Direct
your own controlled burn.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).
Not all that glitters is gold, and
sometimes stardust looks like
plain old dirt. Today you’ll use
your talent for figuring out the
true value of things regardless
of their shine.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
You can’t always choose who
has access to your energy, time
and attention, but you can
certainly instate boundaries
to keep you focused on what’s
important to you.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.
21). Your attitude of gratitude
compounds your good fortune.
The more appreciative you are,
the luckier you feel. The luckier
you feel, the luckier you get.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
You’re not the same person
you were. Because you’ve
changed, the people you
attract will be different, too.
There’s a learning curve here,
so your social life becomes
something of an adventure.
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
Aristotle said nature does
nothing uselessly. Reasons
may be mysterious to you but
keep observing. Eventually,
you’ll understand why things
are in their current state and
how you can evolve them in
your chosen direction.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). It’s
hard to be a lighter, brighter
person while anchored to a
sinking ship. Obviously, the
first order of business is to free
yourself. So, what’s it going to
take?
BIZARRO
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
You’re a quick study today.
Others could get jealous of
your pace, but don’t slow
down. They’ll get over it just as
soon as they see a benefit to
themselves in it.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You
have a keen eye for communi-
cation coming from the sub-
conscious. You detect people’s
vulnerabilities, their wants and
fears, their lies and embellish-
ments.
NON SEQUITUR
WIZARD OF ID
ROSE IS ROSE
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
Not everyone is gifted with
your stellar powers of commu-
nication. It’s easy to get frustrat-
ed by those who won’t say what
they mean or mean what they
say. Finding patience is a worth-
while challenge.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
It’s rare, but it happens. Some-
times you really do feel like the
world is one big, welcoming
community. Just liking to be
around people is a contribution
that lifts spirits.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
Things get overwhelming when
you take them too seriously. To
relax, try letting your thoughts
pass through your mind like
water, as though there’s noth-
ing to grab onto and if you
tried, it would only slip through
your fingers.
MONDAY’S BIRTHDAY (Jan.
31). You’ll rack up achieve-
ments big and small but no
matter what happens you’ll
remember your roots, credit
your team and appreciate your
good fortune. Helping family
solve problems lends a strong
sense of purpose and many
unexpected joys. New hobbies
are favored to connect you with
fresh sources of inspiration.
Taurus and Virgo adore you.
Your lucky numbers are: 8, 10,
4, 33 and 9.
