HOROSCOPES BY HOLIDAY, BY HOLIDAY MATHIS
The trine of Venus and Neptune is a serious situation. You can turn the “serious lens” to whatever you need to train it on. Whether it’s serious fun or something you need to “seriously” figure out or another category of seriousness entirely, you’ll make it right. The point is that you’re committed to a focus and you’ll keep with it until the conclusion.
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Becoming has its own intelligence. Even though you may feel clueless as to what your next move is, your intention to avoid trouble and steer yourself in a healthful and supportive direction will prevail.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). When you over-do it, the recovery can be so intense you wish you never made the effort in the first place. Go forward incrementally, so as to make the challenge a pleasure, not a punishment.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). There are many ways to be truthful. Your truth is tested by worthy opponents. Priorities shift. New influences and interests come. Growth is exhilarating. Rest when needed.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). It’s a day to choose your song and let it carry you through experiences, as a good soundtrack is keen to do. If you need another reason to sing: the verbalizations will resonate through the entire body with healing sound waves.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). When volunteers are needed, you’ll consider it and you’ll join in the case where you truly believe you can do something good in the situation. If you do decide to raise your hand, it will be in the spirit of certainty. Later you’ll look back and realize it was all because you raised your hand.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). When you make plans involving others, suddenly dozens of other small goals fall into the mix. There’s so much that has to happen to make one meeting come together. This is what’s on your mind and agenda.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Build good will and it will remain. It will be there when you need it to be there. It will be there when you want to tap it and it will be there if you never do. Good will, like gold, has a way of remaining untarnished and ready.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). When people want to be generous with you, you’re first instinct is skeptical, which is only smart. If there’s no reason to be skeptical, that will be revealed. First you’ll wonder if accepting generosity will put you in debt. Then you’ll find out what expectations are in play.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). There’s something to add and something to drop. You can balance much, but not all. Once you let go of a matter, it will fall into circulation. Someone else will get it and be very happy for the acquisition.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You’ve done things you’re proud of. You’re still in the thrust of it, actually. Don’t wait for others to notice your accomplishments. Privately acknowledge and praise yourself.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Contrary to the saying, honesty is not always the best policy. It is only best when the truth is both necessary and kind. There’s a time for silent honesty. That’s when you hold a space, quietly observing, until someone needs and wants to know what you see.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You’ll be a key player in the events of the day, and there’s a lot you’re doing to get ready for the events of tomorrow, too. The muses favor you with excellent ideas that you’ll sell with great persuasion.
TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (July 11). You’ll venture boldly, not knowing the way, and nor will your mentors or team. But your moral compass, curiosity and work ethic will lead you all to innovate, invent and strike gold. More highlights: relationship developments that thrill and move you, a clutch investment will pay for seasons to come, and droves of new clients, supporters and fans. Sagittarius and Taurus adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 13, 2, 20, 14 and 8.
