HOROSCOPES BY HOLIDAY, BY HOLIDAY MATHIS
The word “testy” is linked to personality traits like “difficult” and “touchy” instead of “curious” and “intelligent,” which could just as easily apply. Without the testers of the world, there would be no science, and neither would anyone know the boundaries of love. The clash of Venus and Saturn favors little nudges to the physical and emotional environment.
ARIES (March 21-April 19). You come on strong and find out right away which direction to calibrate. This is better than going in mild because the longer things go on in that tone, the harder it becomes to try anything new.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Sometimes you feel like Dr. Robert Bruce Banner turning into The Hulk. Even though his actions are occasionally destructive, he always means well and only breaks down walls to get to some kind of justice.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). There’s no such thing as a perfect person or process, but if there’s such a thing as a perfect hour, you’ll find it and stack a few of them together and come up with something truly remarkable.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). You won’t have to look for the connections to find them. You will find that something you thought was random was actually done on purpose, and seemingly disparate events were indeed connected, perhaps in magical ways.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). The same entertainment you once sought for relaxation now seems to tie up your time and give nothing back. The choices that contribute to your happiness will be made preemptively. Think ahead about how to handle the down moments of the day.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Different points of the day highlight different facets of your personality. A mixed bag of events will balance into a rather realistic view of things and from here you can make plans that serve you well.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). If you had only yourself to please, you’d have no problem whatsoever executing the task, which could theoretically go on for months, maybe even years, before you’d tire of it. Alas, it’s not the case, but at least you’re brilliant with the compromises.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). There are many methods for smoothing things out — heat, weight, raking, pressing, rolling… and in the case of social tension, joking around a bit, which is the equivalent of using an iron — keep it fast, light and constantly moving.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You can visualize with the best of them today and you’ll use your imagination for big and small things alike. For instance, you can project how a date might go, picture another venue and imagine that, too, and then make a plan out of the best fantasy.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). This day is like a realistic mirror, showing you to yourself with clarity and favorable lighting, which you very much deserve. This is where you are in life. This is you, and it’s good. Where do you want to take it next?
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). The way you talk to yourself inside your head can be an exercise in self-care or self-harm. You’ll have a greater amount of control over the tone of your internal dialogue. There will be times you’ll even feel that inner discourse is unnecessary — how peaceful!
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). To trust someone is to relinquish the need to have complete control of things when you’re around them. When you feel safe, you let down your defenses and then, however things go, it’s a collaboration.
TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (June 8). Those who say time is money know little of the value of either. Time is way more valuable and yet it’s still not even close to the value of other precious commodities, such as the sweetness between people or the satisfaction of realizing your potential. Prioritizing will be your strength this year and so you shall have an abundance of all above mentioned commodities. Aquarius and Sagittarius adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 5, 25, 28, 9 and 38.
CELEBRITY PROFILES: “The human race builds too many walls and not enough bridges,” said Frank Lloyd Wright, echoing the very Gemini-esque ethos of communication and connection. Among the world’s most prominent architects, Wright believed that humanity should be at the center of building design. A trend-setting Gemini, Wright was born under the Virgo moon of perfectionism and details. His legacy of mastery lives on in over 800 buildings around the world.
