DAY AFTER TOMORROW’S
HOROSCOPE
MONDAY, APRIL 18, 2022
RHYMES WITH ORANGE
ARIES (March 21-April 19).
You’re engaged in a pursuit that
will never stop being a lot of
work for you. It’s like a stair step-
per that keeps producing a new
step in front of you, though your
elevation hardly changes. Only
you can say whether it’s worth it.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
Make backups, whether it’s a
digital copy of your comput-
er files or a plan B for today’s
schedule. Thinking ahead to
what might go wrong will make
getting it right more likely.
B.C.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). It’s
like you’re the on-call problem
solver of your group. Don’t stress
yourself out over what they
need; it’s a lot. You don’t have to
have all the answers. It’s OK to
say, “I don’t know.”
CANCER (June 22-July 22). You
feel a transition coming on, and
you want to be graceful about it.
This is where surrender comes
in. Let go and trust that you will
have a soft place to land.
DILBERT
BIZARRO
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Answer
phone calls promptly. You will
avoid confusion, miscommuni-
cation and awkward situations
by following this one rule. Deal-
ing with things in real time gives
you power.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). The
sweet life is about loving what
you have, especially your rela-
tionships. When you see oppor-
tunities to treat your cherished
people, you don’t hesitate. It will
make them feel special to know
they are important to you.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You
walk into a room and you set
the tone. There’s no shortage of
people who want to be around
you. Just by liking the life you’re
living and living the life you like,
you influence people.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).
Persistence is your thing. You’re
NON SEQUITUR
WIZARD OF ID
ROSE IS ROSE
even persistent about being
persistent. So long as you feel
there is something else you can
do that might help you achieve
your goal, you’ll keep after it.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.
21). Eliminate stressful trig-
gers. It’s the daily habits — for
instance, always putting your
keys and your glasses back in
the same place — that make life
smooth and allow you to focus
on highly valued relationships.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
You’re becoming aware of the
ways you get off track. There’s an
art to redirection, a way to lead
yourself back to productivity.
Sometimes it’s easier to change
your environment first. Your
thoughts will follow suit.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
The weather has shifted yet
again, and your priorities adjust
right along with the change.
You’ll be coming back to a part
of yourself you haven’t seen in a
while. This part has been waiting
patiently for your return.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
When you started this work, you
weren’t expecting anyone to
saddle up and carry some of the
load. And though you didn’t ask,
the sweet moment comes when
you realize it’s happening all by
itself. Your team is emerging.
MONDAY’S BIRTHDAY (April
18). Your goals are unique, and
your list of must-do experiences
eclectic. You’ll work these plans
like a boss this year, and with
very little support at first. But as
you forge forward with confi-
dence, people join you, resourc-
es are offered, skills developed.
You become the person who
can bring your exciting visions
into reality. Cancer and Scorpio
adore you. Your lucky numbers
are: 3, 30, 1, 27 and 14.
