FRIDAY, AUGUST 13, 2010 JERRY SCOTT & JIM BORGMAN
BIRTHDAY | AUG. 13 HOROSCOPE
Your pure expressions of love will be received in kind. Emotional and physical distances
will be bridged over the next four weeks. September brings family additions. November challenges you to make money doing something new. December brings rare good fortune that few ever get to experience. Aries and Cancer adore you.
ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19). You are blessed and, therefore, feel that you should be happy. Yet, unless life pushes you beyond normal daily experience, it is not likely to feel very fulfilling. Challenge and change are necessary components of joy.
TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20). You’ll be even more curious than usual about other belief systems. You may also feel drawn to learning about cultures that have long since died out. By studying different kinds of social systems, you further develop your own.
GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 21). You laugh at those who suggest that you should let your heart defy logic — as if you had any other choice! These days, your heart and will are so strong, they lead the more reasonable side of you around without any trouble at all.
CANCER (JUNE 22-JULY 22). Limit your apologies. If you really do something wrong, of course, you should say you’re sorry. But don’t apologize for taking up space and having your own intentions. It’s not your job to make sure everyone is happy.
THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN STAN LEE & LARRY LIEBER
LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22). You have a loyal friend and supporter. And when you rush in naively, trusting the world to behave by your code of ethics, this person will watch your back and stand guard over your heart.
TANK MCNAMARA JEFF MILLAR & BILL HINDS WATCH YOUR HEAD CORY THOMAS
VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22). If only your relationships would run more like a business, and all the terms would be spelled out in the contract that you both signed. Instead, there’s a lot of vagueness to sort through. At least you’re a good sorter!
PRICKLY CITY SCOTT STANTIS
LIBRA (SEPT. 23-OCT. 23). Sometimes, all it takes is one match to light a forest fire. And other times, a small campfire requires the whole box. So much depends on the circumstances. Observe patiently. Timing is everything.
BABY BLUES NON SEQUITUR WILEY RICK KIRKMAN & JERRY SCOTT
SCORPIO (OCT. 24-NOV. 21). You’ll notice that your reasons for doing a job are different from what they usually are. Perhaps your work will spring from a desire for political justice or a need to make something useful or beautiful.
SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22-DEC. 21). When you were younger, you were easily distracted by the slightest intrusion from the outside world. But now, you’ll find that you are so shrewdly focused that, short of a natural disaster, nothing fazes you.
ON THE FASTRACK BIG NATE LINCOLN PEIRCE BILL HOLBROOK
CAPRICORN (DEC. 22-JAN. 19). You go at things harder than most, working early, staying late and enduring more physical and emotional discomfort than anyone around in the name of the job. Make plans to relax and play.
PEARLS BEFORE SWINE BEETLE BAILEY MORT, BRIAN & GREG WALKER STEPHAN PASTIS
AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18). Remain neutral as you recognize the consequences of your actions. It’s neither a reward nor a punishment, just the way things turned out because of the particular series of actions you took.
PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20). Your money will come from many different sources throughout your life. Keep your eyes open for a job that will teach you the skills you need to possess in your dream job.
