Horoscopes: Saturday, Jan. 6, 2024

ARIES (March 21-April 19). There’s a bubbly energy that buzzes in your body when you engage with an exciting idea or pursuit. Act on it while the effervescence is alive in you! If you wait, things will fall flat.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Your purpose, if it’s a worthy one, will bring you a multitude and variety of problems. Do not let a problem’s size intimidate you; simply divide until it’s doable. There’s really only one size, the one that can be handled right now.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Frustration doesn’t feel good, but oh how it sets the stage for some of the most satisfying feelings there are — like victory, the moment of “ah-ha!” and, of course, sweet, sweet relief. Frustration also motivates you to make a plan.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Though you wish to turn out work that is as good as it can possibly be, there comes a moment to send it, imperfectly. This is acceptable, necessary and even desirable. Without a flaw, there is nothing to hook into, wonder about, connect over.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). There’s no good reason to answer every question people have about you and neither should you volunteer information. Cultivate a sense of mystery. Ideologies are subject to trends, and even the best ones will eventually age out, while mystery is ageless.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You always share credit because you are well-aware that everything you accomplish is connected to the accomplishment of another. Your virtues will lead to personal growth, improved interactions and a positive impact on the broader community.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). It’s profoundly rewarding to be a part of someone’s life who needs what you know, soaks in what you’re all about and will carry forward your intent in this lifetime. For this reason, you will seek and find mentees.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). The current challenge is more intricate than it initially seems. There are numerous approaches to consider, and it would be regrettable to hastily settle for the first solution that presents itself. Experiment. Explore and refine your methods.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Taking on a heavy load can build your muscles or injure them. The trick is to take on just a little more than is comfortable, but not so much that it causes you to lose your good form.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You may feel compelled to seek validation, but you don’t need it. The thing you’re doing now is singular and therefore no one on the outside can tell if it’s good or bad, effective or not … this is you serving your own purposes — beautiful.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Leaning, by definition, is work for the post. You don’t take for granted the strength and sturdiness you call on for everyday life to roll smoothly out. Aim for fixes that work in both the long and short term.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Your life involves many moving pieces that come together in a natural order. Getting the proper amount of time alone helps you be calm and centered when the pieces seem to jockey for position and bombard you.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Jan. 6). You’ll become mighty in this year of pushing boundaries. You will find the point in which this is most effective. You meet the challenge, then the next one and the next. There’s an investment which will pay you times five. More highlights: heart-pounding romance, three airline flights to paradise and a significant lift on the job front. Virgo and Pisces adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 7, 13, 2, 29 and 28.
