HOROSCOPES BY HOLIDAY

Happy birthday. In light of your personal new year, you’ll close an old cycle, handle business neatly and put the past in a fitting emotional compartment. You’ll get three big breaks over the year: in November, in March and in July. One special love is featured in December.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Friends and family wonder about your relationships and want to be sure you are well taken care of. This is why they have been so nosy.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): A Monday malaise is happening, but your quick physical and social reflexes brighten your environment. People will think you are younger.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21): With your guiding planet going retrograde, you feel an urgency to get an entire list of items accomplished. You’ll make quick work of the first five items.

CANCER (June 22-July 22): It will take someone with depth of character to understand you now. Luckily, such a person will know just what to say or do to make life better for you.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): You know exactly what you need, and you can afford to be picky about it. You’ll find only a small part of the resources you seek, but that will

make a big difference.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You know the specific result you want to achieve and will settle for no less. You’ll do business with someone who has proved himself time and again.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Venus in your sign favorably angles Jupiter, bringing good luck to your romantic sector. Take care that your happiness does not come at the expense of another.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): An aura of mystery is a better image enhancement than a designer outfit. Of course, you were born knowing this.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Your mood will be rather serious, as there’s something you must accomplish by the day’s end. You’ll be repelled by emotional neediness and immaturity.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You’ll finally get the chance to air a concern to a receptive audience. Colleagues will be open to your opinions, especially if you start with opinions they agree with.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): A pay raise or new monetary arrangement is in the works. When you hint that this is important to you, someone with power will reprioritize.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): It’s easy for you to open up to others now — maybe too easy. It’s better to say less and to be coy rather than frank.
