Horoscopes: Friday, April 28, 2023

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Novelty may very well be a basic human need and not one to ignore today. Your mind keeps wandering, a sign that maybe what you’re doing isn’t all that interesting to you right now. What can you change up?

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You are a resource to many, though it’s hard to be completely accessible to one’s own self. Even when the answers are to be found within, it’s a hard place to look for things. For starters, it’s not well lit. Ask a friend to uphold the flashlight of objectivity.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Rapport builds with agreement, but also with a certain degree of disagreement. Interacting with a clone seems like it would be fun for a time, but ultimately people thrive on the very same personality differences that cause friction.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). The results you’re getting will turn a few heads. Your work will be noticed and even highlighted before your peers. Take it in stride — gracious but low-key — so as not to arouse envy.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Don’t be surprised if by midday you’re already dreaming of putting on your pajamas. A cozy Friday will seem massively appealing and if you don’t make it out at all tonight, you won’t miss out on a thing.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). The journey without reflects the journey within and vice versa, although they can take an awful long time to catch up with each other. Just know that whatever you’re working on or experiencing, it will eventually come together, every last bit of it.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). If it works, it works. For today, accept it without question. You’ll have time to go back and figure it out later, but there’s an opportunity in the balance. If you hesitate, you might miss it.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You’ll be caught up in heartfelt giving, even if all you are giving is a smile, a listening ear or a respectful presence. The value of things is not to be underestimated. You never know the last time another person felt the warmth of acceptance.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). However much you want to break down the process and analyze it in depth, leave that for a day when you have more time. Today, you’re wise to go with the flow with what’s working for as long as it does.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You’re happy to do more and consume less. The satisfaction of learning and the joy of accomplishment is so fulfilling that it diminishes the need to accumulate cheap, transient pleasures.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Connections are gold. However many people you know, you always have room for more. You’ll add to your contact list this weekend. Ask to be introduced because people might not think of it on their own.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (April 28). You sensed the wonder that was coming, but now you’ll get the proof of feedback: People will tell you how you improve their lives and make things beautiful. Benjamin Franklin said, “An investment in knowledge pays the best interest.” And you’ll educate yourself in such a manner as to reap outsized benefits. More highlights: You’ll
