RHYMES WITH ORANGE

DILBERT
BIZARRO
ARIES (March 21-April 19).
What people are forgetting is
that ultimately, we are all on
the same team. You’ll look for
commonalities, de-escalate
conflict and nip petty matters in
the bud.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).
There are forces at work that
you don’t know about and
won’t know about until the plot
thickens. But if you sense there
are angels on your side, that’s
something you’re right about.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Ex-
tremely capable people attract
those who are less so. There is
nothing wrong with this, espe-
cially if the aim is to teach and
uplift. Even so, be wary of the
red flag of a leader surrounded
exclusively by inexperienced
yes-people.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.
21). You’ll sacrifice to make
a relationship work. You care
more about getting along and
lifting the other person than
you do about pushing your
own agenda. There’s a balance
to strike here. Only do what
you can do gladly.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You
deserve ease and a sense of
spaciousness in your life. Del-
egate when necessary — also
when unnecessary. Assign the
tasks now before tiny responsi-
bilities build into an avalanche.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19). A job may be easy for you
in theory, but unpredictable
elements could take it in any
number of directions. Be care-
ful not to claim too much or
over-promise.
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
Getting it right the first time is a
rarity, so set your expectations
accordingly. You might even
say that such beginner’s luck is
something of a robbery. What is
there to learn from?
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
You have the option of demon-
strating your might. Is it wise?
Secret strengths can be more
powerful, as they are coiled
in the element of surprise. Be
strategic.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). When
faced with a puzzling or dis-
pleasing result, distance is the
response that buys you time.
No need to explain, complain,
argue or raise your voice — just
walk.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
Accept help judiciously. The
help of one person will make
life easier, whereas the “help”
of another person will over-
complicate things and make
life harder than it was to begin
with.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
Nonsensically, you will feel
younger as the year progresses.
Worry disappears, playfulness
returns, and the fun people just
keep coming. Your living space
will reflect your lighter, brighter
frame of mind.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).
Finances improve as you pick
up a new skill, but which one
should you learn? Investigate
options, poke around and tune
in to your curiosity. Bottom line,
you’ll stick with what interests
you.
NON SEQUITUR
WIZARD OF ID
ROSE IS ROSE
SATURDAY’S BIRTHDAY (Feb.
5). Your hospitality runs the
range of friendly to spectacular
and ultimately earns you mon-
ey and esteem. Responsibilities
get easier because you’ll have
a team. Love and risk will go
together; so will intense study
and a high honor. A different
eating style is also featured.
You’ll experiment until you find
the vitality you seek. Aries and
Virgo adore you. Your lucky
numbers are: 6, 44, 3, 28 and
14.
