horoscope

(October 8 Wednesday)

- By HOLIDAY MATHIS

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Today you'll experience the phenomenon of dancing, though metaphorically.

People will be bound together by a beat, though it’s not coming from the DJ, but from the pulse of work -- a common ground, a shared, uniting effort.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Overwhelm feels real, and maybe it is, but it’s also just an idea. Focus only on what's essential -- first for the day, then just for this hour. By narrowing your focus, you'll feel powerful inside the part you can control.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). The emotionally immature tend to make assumptions and form superficial impressions. Higher emotional intelligence means more noticing, more care, more accurate guesswork about what others might be experiencing. Nuanced observation is the heart of empathy.
