Get A Jump On Tomorrow….
Your Horoscopes for Tuesday, August 9th
by Rick Levine
General Horoscope
We want resolution on lingering issues after the Moon shifts into perceptive Scorpio at 12:51 am EDT. Discerning objectivity is no longer the top priority as emotions overwhelm logic. A friendly Moon-Venus sextile enables us to effortlessly get along with others once we make a commitment to do so. A foggy Moon-Neptune trine clouds reality while putting us in touch with the power of our dreams. If we believe in ourselves, nearly anything can happen.
Aries Horoscope MAR 21 – APR 19
Your lack of patience motivates you to move away from the centrist position you were previously holding. But you are more compulsive than impulsive about executing your plan today because you are fearful about making a careless mistake. It’s one thing to acknowledge you’re at a point of no return, but it’s something else to be cool enough to make your current actions count. Be as practical as you can without walking away from your dreams. In Muhammad Ali’s words, “The man who has no imagination has no wings.”
Taurus Horoscope APR 20 – MAY 20
Your expectations can lead to trouble today if you are relying on someone else for advice. A close friend or partner will likely step up to the plate to present an alternative perspective on a current situation. Although you may be appreciative of the additional point of view, it’s not wise to accept it as equal to your own perceptions because other people have their personal biases. Take any feedback you receive now as simply more data upon which to base your decision. Ultimately, the best answers come from within and not from anyone else.
Gemini Horoscope MAY 21 – JUN 20
You believe you know the best way to go about your business today and are reluctant to listen to anyone else’s criticism. Nevertheless, your air of self-sufficiency won’t prevent someone from answering your questions before you even ask them. Although your gut reaction is to be dismissive, you could learn something important if you get past your resistance and maintain an open mind. It’s your option to go back to your original idea if you so desire. Nevertheless, your receptivity might just lead to a breakthrough strategy you never considered before. Inspiration springs from the most unlikeliest of places.
Cancer Horoscope JUN 21 – JUL 22
You’re motivated to express what’s on your mind today, even if the thought of revealing your truth makes you recoil in fear. But don’t let the limitations of your logic stand between you and effective communication because your disclosure carries the potential to positively impact your life. You have the power of integrity on your side; don’t be afraid to use it for the good of all. Just remember that right thinking leads to stagnation without right action.
Leo Horoscope JUL 23 – AUG 22
You have stories that you want to keep to yourself today and no amount of prying will encourage you to loosen your lips. Your current charm enables you to keep things to yourself without alienating anyone in the process. In fact, you make it look easy when you matter-of-factly declare your boundaries in such a friendly manner that people can’t help but smile and agree with your right to personal space. No one will hold a grudge if you combine your honesty with kindness.
Virgo Horoscope AUG 23 – SEP 22
You’re unwilling to gamble on shaking up your schedule today, even if your calculated odds look promising. Oddly enough, you are not intrigued in the slightest by endless stacks of data that could be used to justify your position. Instead of your regular penchant for facts, you’re eager to unwrap a few magical tidbits now. Although you’re fascinated by the alluring music of your imagination, there’s little room for error when it comes to your world of efficiency.
Libra Horoscope SEP 23 – OCT 22
It’s all about your self-esteem — or your lack of it — today. Typically, you shine when you’re surrounded by like-minded people who know and love you. But maintaining your confidence isn’t easy, especially if you long for time by yourself away from the crowd. Whatever course of action you choose, you must juggle your attraction to the spotlight and your current fear of being on the big stage. As Irish novelist Laurence Sterne wrote, “In solitude the mind gains strength and learns to lean upon itself.”
Scorpio Horoscope OCT 23 – NOV 21
You’re unsure how to handle your intense mood changes now that the emotional Moon is kicking up a storm in your sign. As soon as you acknowledge your feelings, they morph into a new configuration that makes it difficult to keep track of them. Unfortunately, you can exhaust yourself, and others, by making a big deal of every passing thought. It’s all about cultivating a healthy perspective; if you find yourself wandering off course, slow down and reestablish your center of gravity.
Sagittarius Horoscope NOV 22 – DEC 21
You might not want to come out of hiding today, although this reclusive behavior contradicts your normal outgoing nature. Of course, you are not responsible for everyone else’s feelings, but there’s no reason to alienate your allies by ignoring them. It won’t take much extra energy to simply inform them of your motives so they won’t over-personalize your introspective attitude now. As Mahatma Gandhi said, “It’s easy to stand with the crowd; it takes courage to stand alone.”
Capricorn Horoscope DEC 22 – JAN 19
You are extremely discerning about who you associate with and you aren’t willing to change your selection criteria just to appease someone else today. However, establishing your standards might not be as logical of a process as you claim; instead of adhering to rules, you arbitrarily pick and choose your friends by the feeling in the pit of stomach. There’s nothing wrong with trusting your instincts as long as you don’t hide behind the illusion of sound judgment. Ultimately, your erroneous assumptions can be your worst enemies.
Aquarius Horoscope JAN 20 – FEB 18
Nearly everything you do today is aimed at climbing the ladder of success. But you’re not satisfied now with making progress and then resting on your laurels. You’re gazing further into the future and are willing to make short-term sacrifices to achieve long-term objectives. Although you might be tempted to set out on your own, there is much to gain from the resources others could bring to the table. Decide what you’re willing to give up for the luxury of someone else’s participation. Small acts when multiplied by many people can transform the world.
Pisces Horoscope FEB 19 – MAR 20
You have your heart set on doing something out of the ordinary and you don’t want to wait forever to make it happen. However, there may be someone else involved who has a slightly different idea of what an adventure might look like. Don’t get discouraged if a resolution seems elusive now; you will have plenty of time to put it all together once you reach a mutual agreement on the overall plan. Steer clear of impulsive decisions today. In the words of Ben Franklin, “Take time for all things. Great haste makes great waste.”
