Daily Horoscopes for Tuesday, August 7

We may feel as if we’re at a standstill today, yet the energetic Aries Moon encourages us to push ahead. Nevertheless, the Moon opposes resistant Saturn, reminding us to tie up loose ends before stepping into new territory. We grow more patient now as sweet Venus enters the nurturing realms of watery Cancer. We’re currently more interested in emotional security than progress. Fortunately, there is movement tomorrow when Mercury turns direct.

 

Aries Horoscope
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

The spontaneity of today’s Aries Moon is befuddled by the passivity of Venus in Cancer. You want to seize the day because the courting process is like going to war. You love the chase and you like to win affection. Practice being quiet so your feelings can be heard. Back up a bit so that others have room to express their desires, too. Although being subtle is not your usual style, it’s the best way to make sparks fly now.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

Romantic Venus is your key planet, and you will feel softer and more receptive to love as she travels through sentimental Cancer.

Fortunately, your modus operandi of slow and steady wins the race really does work at this time.

Gemini Horoscope
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

If you have been on social overload lately, things should begin to settle down as Venus finally leaves your sign. Although you still may want to play, it’s time to set new priorities and focus your intentions on what you want in a relationship. But don’t be too concerned if your emotional needs aren’t being fulfilled right now. Concentrate on long-term goals instead of seeking immediate gratification.

Cancer Horoscope
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

The next few weeks could provide a heightened sense of belonging, adding an expanded depth to your current relationship or introducing a new love interest into your life. If a romance starts to heat up while charming Venus is in your sign, it might be about tender caring and sensitive nurturing instead of a sudden, head-over-heels infatuation. There may not be any showy fireworks, but the feelings can run very deep.

Leo Horoscope
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You’re encouraged to look at your own issues about love and romance now that Venus is wandering through your 12th House of Spiritual Mystery. You have subconscious fears that can motivate you in relationships. Use these coming weeks to dig into your rich fantasy life. Face your previous disappointments. Own what you are attracted to and what repulses you. Self-acceptance is your key to happiness.

Virgo Horoscope
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Venus in sensitive Cancer moves through your 11th House of Friends and Wishes, emphasizing your long-term relationship goals and putting you in touch with your future. It doesn’t matter whether you fantasize at night or if you daydream at work. The content isn’t all that important as long as you dream. Don’t judge yourself; it’s OK if you don’t yet have the intimacy you seek. Love works on its own schedule and can’t be rushed.

Libra Horoscope
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Venus is your planetary ruler, but you may find yourself in conflict with the planet of love and money now as she moves through vulnerable Cancer. You are attracted to harmony and equality, but have a more difficult time balancing everything today because you’re concerned with protecting your feelings. As such, situations might intensify for a while if you let yourself be drawn into a drama. Your best defense is to not hold on to more than you need.

Scorpio Horoscope
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You are in your element with sensual Venus’ visit to caring Cancer. These next few weeks may bring tender situations that mellow your intensity without requiring you to suppress your feelings. Although you have a clear vision of what you want now, you might be quieter than usual. Shift your attention away from the outer world and create a safe bubble where your feelings can contribute to building a nurturing relationship.

Sagittarius Horoscope
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You may not easily understand the care-taking aspect of Venus in Cancer, making your relationships difficult to manage for the next few weeks. You might prefer jumping into a situation without necessarily becoming attached. However, this isn’t possible now, so you’ll need to take a risk and allow yourself to become emotionally vulnerable. Luckily, if you can break the ice by opening your heart, others are able to do so in return.

Capricorn Horoscope
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You Goats typically find security by establishing structure in all aspects of your life. Naturally, you take love seriously and want it to be real. Some of your well-defined boundaries grow mushier now as Venus moves through your 7th House of Relationships. This might make you anxious, for you’re not comfortable with the more vulnerable side of love. Give yourself permission to enjoy the pleasures without worrying about the cost.

Aquarius Horoscope
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You are normally attracted to relationships that give you a bit of extra room to be on your own. But Venus in caring Cancer now tempts you to attach yourself to the object of your love — and this clinging behavior may make you irritable. Stretch into your vulnerability and explore the emotional intimacy that’s possible. You might be happily surprised that being very close to someone could be exhilarating rather than smothering.

Pisces Horoscope
