R JERRY SCOTT & JIM BORGMAN
BIRTHDAY | SEPT. 23 HOROSCOPE
You’ll finally have the time to do what you want. The next 10 weeks bring many
long, meaningful conversations that cement bonds of affection and also lead you to explore new interests. December brings an impressive payday. Travel in May. Gemini and Virgo people adore you.
ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19). Now that a hurdle is behind you, you no longer feel defined by its oppression. Rather, you are defined by your victory over it. In your own way, you are a mighty conqueror.
TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20). You never know who is watching. Your good deeds and hard work will be observed by those who can’t help you at all, and by powerful folks who can promote and pay you.
GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 21). There are times when ideas seem to drop into your head from on high. But waiting around for this to happen practically ensures that it won’t. Start sketching, brainstorming, conversing — then the ideas will flow again.
S O N I NLA W BARNEY AND CLYDE WEINGARTENS & CLARK
CANCER (JUNE 22-JULY 22). You might not feel that you have anything much to say to your colleagues, employees and others who work with and for you. However, you need to maintain contact in order to keep the ball rolling on the work you are doing together.
THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN STAN LEE & LARRY LIEBER
LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22). Instead of being who you think you should be, just be who you are. This takes great courage. But in the end, it’s easier on you, not to mention others. Everyone around you will feel more comfortable being themselves, too.
TANK MCNAMARA JEFF MILLAR & BILL HINDS
VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22). If you don’t know what to do next, follow your desire. Maybe your dreams are not as selfish as you think they are. Maybe they were given to you as a kind of compass to help you find your way through life’s labyrinth.
WATCH YOUR HEAD CORY THOMAS PRICKLY CITY SCOTT STANTIS
LIBRA (SEPT. 23-OCT. 23). You may be disappointed by someone’s work, but don’t show it. Take the stance of a professional manager. Be objective: This isn’t personal. Point out what’s going right, offer criticism, and make a new request.
BABY BLUES NON SEQUITUR WILEY RICK KIRKMAN & JERRY SCOTT
SCORPIO (OCT. 24-NOV. 21). Sometimes you skip along life’s path, and other times it feels as if you’re crawling. You’ll experience both modes of movement over the course of the day. But as long as you are moving forward, it is, as they say, “all good.”
SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22-DEC. 21). In professional matters, you take into consideration how your decisions will affect your immediate team and also the “team at large,” which includes your suppliers, customers and Mother Earth herself.
ON THE FASTRACK BIG NATE LINCOLN PEIRCE BILL HOLBROOK
CAPRICORN (DEC. 22-JAN. 19). It might feel as though taking time for yourself means you will miss out on other opportunities. However, you will enjoy your connections with others much more after you’ve invested in your own well-being.
PEARLS BEFORE SWINE BEETLE BAILEY MORT, BRIAN & GREG WALKER STEPHAN PASTIS
AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18). You may have relied on one who is not the most qualified person to help you. There is no one who knows you better than you know yourself. Take back the power you have given away.
PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20). Too much energy gets wasted in exchanging horror stories. The negativity can only taint your fun. Tonight, relate strictly the happy things that happened during the day.
