JIM DAVIS
THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN
STAN LEE & LARRY LIEBER
LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22).
Sometimes it’s a relief to remember that no one is as concerned about your ap- pearance as you. Take this as permission to relax, and then go out and enjoy yourself.
TANK MCNAMARA
JEFF MILLAR & BILL HINDS
VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22).
Now isn’t the time to back off. This opportunity won’t last forever. Furthermore, you’re going to have to show that you really want it. Make the call. Focus on what you want and what you need to do to get it. Now go make it happen.
WATCH YOUR HEAD
CORY THOMAS
PRICKLY CITY
SCOTT STANTIS
LIBRA (SEPT. 23-OCT. 23).
You have a fantasy about the way it’s going to be. If you keep running that through your mind, intensifying the images and filling out the picture, this visualization will in fact be very close to the way things ultimately turn out.
BABY BLUES NON SEQUITUR
WILEY RICK KIRKMAN & JERRY SCOTT
SCORPIO (OCT. 24-NOV. 21).
Every party has a shelf life. Get out before the use-by date has arrived. Leaving the party too soon could offend the host. Leaving too late will annoy the host. Be a good judge of the energy in the room, and you’ll be fine.
SAGITTARIUS
(NOV. 22-DEC. 21).
Holding people’s attention will be a challenge. It has nothing to do with you. There are too many distractions around to entrance them as you usually do. Follow your own interests, and don’t worry about the others.
ON THE FASTRACK BIG NATE
LINCOLN PEIRCE BILL HOLBROOK
CAPRICORN
(DEC. 22-JAN. 19).
Doing it all yourself is a drag. Today, approach your life as though it were a team sport. The interplay and interdepen- dence keep it exciting. Match the pace and energy of the other players. It’s a lively game.
PEARLS BEFORE SWINE BEETLE BAILEY
MORT, BRIAN & GREG WALKER STEPHAN PASTIS
AQUARIUS
(JAN. 20-FEB. 18).
Be brief and you’ll be heard. A three-second sound bite will get your message across better than a three-minute presentation. Your subject matter is strong. Address it and move on.
PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20).
You’ll be mixing and mingling with old and new faces. Long-lost friends were prob- ably lost for a reason. Still, it’s nice to catch up. There’s something in it for both of you.

BIRTHDAY | MAY 28
HOROSCOPE
Like a skilled arti- san, you create fascinating, stylized scenes in this, your
life’s masterpiece. Being somewhat picky is a plus. Refuse to be swayed or controlled by anyone around you. Money comes in June. Long-term investments are favored. August brings relationship bliss. Travel in October. Cancer and Virgo people adore you.
ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19).
You wouldn’t intentionally eavesdrop, and yet you will overhear something that affects a friend of yours. As long as you didn’t seek it out, the information is fair game, especially if it protects some- one you care about.
TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20).
All along the way, you have made the most of your situ- ation. Often circumstances have been less than ideal. You’ve found a way to maxi- mize the good parts. Don’t change now — it’s working for you.
CUL DE SAC
RICHARD THOMPSON
GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 21).
You’re almost there. Take a deep breath and stay on it for just a little while longer. The payoff will be worth it. If nothing else, you’ll be through the process and free to make new choices.
CANCER (JUNE 22-JULY 22).
The wind is blowing in the direction you want to go. The sun is warm on your face. The birds are singing your fa- vorite song. Today is a good day to take a chance.
