partnerships, determination, and innovative approaches are steps in the
right direction.

BIRTHDAY | OCTOBER 4
This year you present
yourself as social and
generally upbeat.
You always seem
ready to have a talk or share
information. You naturally
express your personality. If
you are single, you find that
whether you are conscious
of it or not, you like being a
free agent. Be honest about
your likes and desires. If you
DILBERT SCOTT ADAMS JUDGE PARKER FRANCESCO MARCIULIANO & MIKE MANLEY are attached, you enjoy your
significant other to no end.
The two of you spend a lot
of time together. Leo likes to
party with you!
ARIES
(MARCH 21-APRIL 19).
Your temper seems to be
close to the surface. You might
have had some experience
taming the anger within, which
makes it less likely that you
will explode. Be forgiving if
someone starts acting out or
simply becomes wild.
TAURUS
FRAZZ JEF MALLETT CANDORVILLE DARRIN BELL (APRIL 20-MAY 20).
A domestic issue emerges
that could put you deep
into thought. Reverie might
not be appropriate at work!
Extremes seem to mark your
day. Connect with others, and
express your concerns.
GEMINI
(MAY 21-JUNE 20).
You have a way of expressing
yourself and your needs.
You might want to take a
break from the immediate
situation. Go off and take
a walk, then share your
GARFIELD JIM DAVIS BARNEY AND CLYDE WEINGARTENS & CLARK thoughts openly.
CANCER
(JUNE 21-JULY 22).
Build yourself up. Consider
taking a class, or schedule
more frequent gym visits.
Be careful when dealing
with a partner. Stay centered,
and do not allow yourself to
be thrown off-kilter.
LEO
(JULY 23-AUG. 22).
You beam and draw others
toward you. As a result,
your positive attitude goes
far. Others tend to reveal
DUSTIN STEVE KELLEY & JEFF PARKER THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN STAN LEE & LARRY LIEBER
much more when you are
open with them. Watch a
tendency to be excessive
in your self-expression.
VIRGO
(AUG. 23-SEPT. 22).
You could be dealing with
more than your share of
details and issues. You also
have a lot of information to
digest. You will have a new
beginning if you decide to
change certain patterns.
LIBRA
(SEPT. 23-OCT. 22).
PRICKLY CITY Get down to basics when
SCOTT STANTIS LOOSE PARTS DAVE BLAZEK
having a discussion. You
cannot avoid a conversation
for long -- and the sooner you
have it, the better. Your anger
is close to the surface. Try to
avoid an eruption of fury. Be
careful if you feel hot under
the collar.
SCORPIO
(OCT. 23-NOV. 21).
You decide to have a long-
overdue conversation with
a higher-up. You could have
difficulty getting a situation
under control, especially as
you might be harboring some
NON SEQUITUR WILEY BABY BLUES RICK KIRKMAN & JERRY SCOTT undefined resentment or
anger. Honor your differences.
SAGITTARIUS
(NOV. 22-DEC. 21).
When trying to piece together
a problematic situation,
detach and try to imagine
what it is like to be in the other
person’s shoes. Identifying
with others helps you come up
with a reasonable solution for
all parties involved.
CAPRICORN
(DEC. 22-JAN. 19).
You are able to look at a
problem from a unique
BIG NATE LINCOLN PEIRCE ON THE FASTRACK BILL HOLBROOK
perspective. As a result of
your unusual view, you see
what others don’t. In fact, a
solution might not be needed,
but rather understanding and
empathy toward each other.
Ask questions, if necessary.
AQUARIUS
(JAN. 20-FEB. 18).
Defer to others, and let
them clearly express their
agendas. You are unlikely
to lose yourself if you allow
another person to dominate
for a while. You also might
understand why you do not
BEETLE BAILEY MORT, BRIAN & GREG WALKER PEARLS BEFORE SWINE STEPHAN PASTIS like being as passive as you
are.
PISCES
(FEB. 19-MARCH 20).
Deal with a work-related
matter. Your schedule might
be intense and very busy. You
could wonder what way would
be best to present a new idea.
You might want to wait for now.
Ask a close loved one if you
are projecting negativity.

Decorating a child’s bedroom can be a daunting task. You want to create a space that can easily transition from nursery to playroom to
homework zone, with plenty of storage for toys, sports equipment, instruments, clothing and more. ¶ “With any kid’s room, the design objective is
usually happy, durable and practical,” wrote Alexandra Pappas and Tatyana Miron, designers and principals of Pappas Miron Design, in an email.
Their design for a 6-year-old’s bedroom in New York’s Upper East Side recently was getting some love on Instagram, with its bright colors and
space-saving homework nook (#nookgoals). They had been tasked with creating a youthful interior that would provide a workspace, ample storage
and enough floor space for playtime. ¶ “The palette is bright, but sophisticated,” the pair wrote in an email. The walls were kept a muted light blue so
the space would not “scream ‘kids room,’ ” while the orange plastic desk chair, custom teal twin bed and yellow desk accessories infused the space
with vibrant, youthful energy. ¶ The yellow desk lamp, the designers said, “doesn’t take up a lot of surface area on the small writing desk, but the
bold color packs a punch.” ¶ Want to achieve this look? Try these products. megan.mcdonough@washpost.com
