R JERRY SCOTT & JIM BORGMAN
BIRTHDAY | SEPT. 9 HOROSCOPE
You’ll excel in a competitive
environment through September. October
brings a new responsibility and a matching paycheck. You’ll be inspired to show your affection in a big way in December. There will be a financial development that allows you to have terrific fun in March. The social swing is a blast this June. Taurus and Leo people adore you.
ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19). At times, it seems you would rather be doing almost anything in the world other than the work in front of you. But when you really consider your options, this notion isn’t so true.
TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20). Don’t trust your reviews. The French philosopher Voltaire once reviewed William Shakespeare’s “Hamlet,” calling it “the fruit of the imagination of a drunken savage.” Even smart people make mistakes.
D E COR
L I T T L ERED HEN SU M AS S
S HIR L E Y J O N E S CAAN HO O P D R E A MS OG R E UK E M O T HER TS A R DE Y CL I N G S
JIM DAVIS BARNEY AND CLYDE WEINGARTENS & CLARK
GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 21). Dreams will bring you presents. You will have a sense of how to apply them right away. However, you will need to focus and go deeper in order to actually move into action mode. Write in your journal.
CANCER (JUNE 22-JULY 22). Angels are around you. But how do you tell the difference between a true angel and someone who is just being what you want them to be in order to win your favor and trust? It’s easy. The true angel won’t ask for money.
THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN STAN LEE & LARRY LIEBER TANK MCNAMARA JEFF MILLAR & BILL HINDS
LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22). You are the definition of steadfast. In order to really get what this means, it might help to check out this other definition of steadfast in Collins English Dictionary: “unwavering or determined in purpose, loyalty, etc.”
WATCH YOUR HEAD CORY THOMAS
VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22). You’ll witness a social scene bubbling up. This might be a revolution or a counterculture movement. Or it could just be a colorful and weird bit of chaos that the universe has stirred up purely for your enjoyment.
PRICKLY CITY SCOTT STANTIS
LIBRA (SEPT. 23-OCT. 23). Your self-esteem has taken enough knocks lately. Do something to protect it! Better yet, find a way to bolster yourself. Get a compliment, even if you have to give one to yourself.
BABY BLUES NON SEQUITUR WILEY RICK KIRKMAN & JERRY SCOTT
SCORPIO (OCT. 24-NOV. 21). Have you ever tried to save a bug and wound up killing it instead? Sometimes it’s better not to interfere. Go gingerly into other people’s business.
SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22-DEC. 21). You’ll be aware of the sands of time passing through the hourglass. There is only one way to grow old gracefully, and it has nothing to do with surgery or vitamins. Give love freely, openly and often.
ON THE FASTRACK BIG NATE LINCOLN PEIRCE BILL HOLBROOK
CAPRICORN (DEC. 22-JAN. 19). You will best accomplish your aims in a small group of three to five people. You’ll have the opportunity to share the top items on your wish list with everyone in detail.
PEARLS BEFORE SWINE BEETLE BAILEY MORT, BRIAN & GREG WALKER STEPHAN PASTIS
AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18). What you want to do isn’t difficult, but it is time-consuming. The hardest part will be committing the hours and keeping your strength and motivation up until the job is done. A coach will help you.
PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20). Not everyone is able to welcome prosperity. You have a clear conscience, and you’ve also known what it’s like to go without. For these reasons, you are ready for wealth and it is coming your way.
