Horoscopes: Wednesday, December 27, 2017

ARIES (March 21-April 19). In the cry of one broken heart is the song of all the broken hearts through history. It's why you can't listen without echoing the mournful resonance inside you. There's a comfort and healing in this.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). If you don't easily fall asleep, there are good reasons; perhaps too much is on your mind, or an exciting possibility has you reeling. Embrace the mystical: It's good for imagination.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Frank Sinatra had a hit doing it "My Way," but for most people the adventure begins when "My Way" doesn't pan out and we must learn to do it "A Way" (or in today's case, any way that will work).

CANCER (June 22-July 22). There's something coming your way - an important sale or a bonus. The rewards will have a direct correlation to your effort and stellar attitude. It's nice when things happen this cleanly.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You're usually pretty intuitive about what others might need, but what this intuition is probably telling you now is to just ask. You'll be surprised by what you hear.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Dreams are good; plans are better. A little of both will serve you best. Because if you only plan, it won't be interesting enough, and if you only dream, it won't be practical enough.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You'll be on the hunt for a new experience. So while the cost matters, and the risk is a factor to consider, the enticement of the unfamiliar teamed with your curiosity will trump your trepidation.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You care about something that isn't conventional. Getting into it more might lead you slightly and temporarily away from certain people who will never really get it, but it will bond you with people who share your interest.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). The moment when it happens is not the next one; it's always this one... if for no other reason than the fact that you can't live or do anything in the next one. Keep reminding yourself to stay alert to what's happening now.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Since you are the beholder, you get to say what's beautiful. Try to do this away from the influence of others to get a true read. Otherwise you'll be swayed.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). It's easy to say no when you have already said yes to something else. Since your schedule fills up on a first-come, first-served basis, fill it up with what you really want your life to be about.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). According to Grabel's Law, two is not equal to three, not even for large values of two. In a related story, getting something different from what you want is still not getting what you want.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (Dec. 27). An investment made years ago will finally pay off in 2018. Among the stellar decisions you'll make this year will be your choice to rely on the reliable. Loved ones will give you the lift you need to stretch into new roles and challenges. A friendship gets sweeter with a shared adventure. Speak your heart in June. Gemini and Libra adore you. Lucky numbers: 30, 45, 22, 19, 31.
