DAY AFTER TOMORROW’S
HOROSCOPE
THURSDAY, APRIL 14, 2022
RHYMES WITH ORANGE
ARIES (March 21-April 19).
You’ve tried to slot someone
into a pattern that suited you,
and it worked for a while, but
ultimately each must answer to
individual needs... an inevitabil-
ity of life.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
People can be unpredictable,
erratic and irresponsible. That
doesn’t make them less lovable
to you, but it does mean you’ll
have to think ahead or work
around them to achieve your
desired outcome.
B.C.
DILBERT
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You
will avoid the frustration that
inevitably comes with not get-
ting what you want by simply
not wanting it. Your cosmic gift
of the day is the amazing ability
to just drop it and instead desire
something right within reach.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). No
one learns alone. “Self-taught”
is a myth. Learning begins
by watching, listening to and
following the teacher. Today’s
teacher may be a book, a princi-
ple or an unfolding event. You’ll
soak up all you need to know.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You
usually don’t like it when people
who don’t need help ask for it
anyway. But who has the time to
make sure each request is legit?
Today it won’t matter. You’ll help
others and you’re the one who
will end up feeling lucky.
BIZARRO
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
Your problems are not to blame
for what ails you. Rather, these
complications are what will
grow you into a more creative
and resourceful person. The
things you must do to survive
and thrive will be the source of
your strength.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Those
who make excuses or pass
blame deprive themselves of the
chance to learn the right way
to do a task. You recognize this
NON SEQUITUR
WIZARD OF ID
ROSE IS ROSE
in others and avoid making the
same mistake.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).
Out of modesty and social grace,
you don’t always highlight your
accomplishments and all you’ve
got going on. However, right
now there’s someone near who
will benefit from your work. So,
talk it up!
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.
21). Growth takes time, but it
doesn’t take forever. You’ve been
patient, nurturing and positive,
yet things haven’t formed to the
shape you needed them to be.
Nothing is so essential you can’t
let it go. Start over new.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
The task at hand is something
you would do even if you were
not paid to. Even so, don’t offer
it for free. People will value it
better if they pay for it.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
Whatever you’re working with,
make it your own. Forget about
what a thing was designed to
do. What do you need it to do?
You’ll get completely original re-
sults because you’re not bound
to the rules.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
To live in harmony is as much
about hitting the right tones as
it is about getting the timing
right. You pace yourself to strike
the right mood with the right
moment.
THURSDAY’S BIRTHDAY (April
14). Implausible happenings
blossom in your life, so don’t
limit your wishing to that which
seems reasonable. You’ll be deal-
ing in realms that don’t exist at
the time of this reading, so send
your hopes to the stars and your
plans to the outer edges, and
keep pushing. New scenes are
painted with the vitality of your
passion. Virgo and Scorpio adore
you. Your lucky numbers are: 1,
44, 38, 9 and 5.
