Your Daily Horoscopes for Tuesday, August 14

We are traversing some very tricky territory now as the Moon visits supersensitive Cancer, reminding us that home is where the heart is. A growing undercurrent of anxiety may raise control issues in our relationships as the noble Leo Sun stresses the explosive long-lasting Uranus-Pluto square. We wish that we could kick back and relax, but we must express our feelings gently as they surface or they could turn to anger or resentment.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You can finally slow down today — a relatively unusual event — yet you may still resist easing up on the gas. You have been racing at high speed for a while and could be in danger of depleting your fuel. Take the time to gather resources and recharge your batteries while you have the opportunity. Nevertheless, be ready to swing into action later in the day instead of passively waiting for something to happen.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

A maternal feeling toward someone you love may sweep over you today, even if you aren’t parentally-inclined. Nurturing others can be healing, yet you must make the effort to do it. But don’t take care of anyone just so you can feel good about yourself. Practicing unconditional love has the greatest impact on everyone involved.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

Love begins at home by learning how to value your heart’s desires. You’re often quick to say the right thing at the right time so you receive the approval of others. But now it’s time to stop trying to elicit the response you want from anyone else and follow your dreams. Taking care of yourself feels good; ironically, it also can set the tone to deepen the connection between you and someone special.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

Although the Moon’s visit to moody Cancer stirs your emotions, you have some serious self-restraint issues coming to light today. You may feel as if you’re on-edge, but cannot easily express the things you want to share. Keep in mind that you’re probably being harder on yourself than is necessary. Stay aware of the facts, but save your critical judgments for another day.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

Your fantasy life is rich now with the Moon illuminating your 12th House of Imagination. Nevertheless, keep one foot anchored in the real world so you don’t drop off into the realm of dreams. You have significant feelings that you need to unfold in the privacy of your own mind, because letting others know doesn’t seem quite right yet. There’s no need to worry; trust your intuition and you’ll know when to open up.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Sometimes when you’re participating in a group function you are hesitant to say what’s on your mind. You don’t have a problem talking to your partner or your boss in private; however, it’s difficult to express yourself in a public meeting. Gather your courage to speak up today. You don’t need to disclose everything, but rest assured that every word you share will be taken seriously.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You want to do what’s right, but something is preventing you from taking action now. You have been observing your feelings as they change, but haven’t said anything yet because you don’t want to upset the status quo. However, today you can share what’s been bugging you as long as you do so with sensitivity. Show how much you care in a way that allows you to get away with saying more and offending less.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You might be especially concerned about your future now. Even your fantasies may be related to your career or community goals rather than your personal life. It’s tempting to get emotionally worked up about issues of social injustice. Your opinions could be so strong that your passionate perspective explodes to the surface. Speak your mind, but hold back just enough so your message isn’t lost in the drama of the moment.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Your unexpressed feelings may be the most significant ones now, especially if your idealism attracts unrealistic dreams. Actually, the subtle signals you’re receiving might not even be on the radar of perception. Don’t question where your ideas are coming from. Just listen carefully, even if you’re not sure what you are listening to. Write down everything you hear today; you will understand more in due time.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

It’s not all about you today; in fact, it’s about everyone else. At least that’s how it seems. But someone isn’t telling you everything, and the unexpressed feelings can rebound to create a tense situation. If this is what’s happening, look to your own issues and acknowledge your contribution to the current events. You can change your outer world most effectively by transforming your inner perspective.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You could be a bit anxious today. Your dilemma stems from your desire for love and acceptance. Of course, nearly everyone wants to feel needed, but you complicate matters by attempting to avoid emotional interdependence. There is no one-size-fits-all answer; instead of seeking the right solution, try to be comfortable with all sides of an issue. Others will be more appreciative when you are flexible enough to recognize their points of view, too.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Your feelings are growing more serious day by day. However, it doesn’t mean you are antisocial, even if you need some time to yourself now. To the contrary, this is an ideal day to pursue a romantic interest or to use your creativity to make something real. Reach out to enjoy the moment with someone special.

Your Daily Horoscopes for August 13th

Insecurities deepen and emotions intensify today as the Moon enters moody Cancer at 4:27 am EDT. Nevertheless, the day still begins on a sweet note as the Moon creates a smooth trine with dreamy Neptune and then hooks up with romantic Venus. Even if everything appears to be running smoothly, it’s challenging to express what we feel. Relationship dynamics grow more complex as the Cancer Moon opposes domineering Pluto and squares unstable Uranus.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You may decide early in the day that you’re not going to let anything bother you. This cavalier strategy might actually work for a while, but it’s impossible to hold on to your laissez faire attitude if someone does something that offends or threatens you. Even if you consciously choose to just let it go, handling your unresolved feelings will be easier now than later. Share your concerns with a friend and then move on.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

You’re feeling very positive about life and could even ignore an important detail just so you can maintain your current peace of mind. Unfortunately, it becomes more difficult throughout the day to continue to bury your head in the sand. It’s better to face an uncomfortable truth than it is to try to dance your way around it. Be courageous; your dilemma is probably not as big as you think.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

Although you could be tenaciously holding on to fears about your finances, you’re acting so confidently that others may not see past your charming appearance. There’s nothing wrong with wanting to present your life in a positive light. Nevertheless, don’t try to fool yourself even if you can dazzle others with your fancy footwork. Be smart today and manage your money or pay some bills. Push past your resistance and get down to work. All that anyone needs to know is that you’re busy and can’t be disturbed now.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

Although you may be rather distracted today, it’s wise to acknowledge your own feelings and express your needs now that the Moon is back in your sign. You are at the beginning of a whole new emotional cycle, yet your attachments to the past can prevent you from moving forward. Being patient is one of your strengths; just don’t let it turn into procrastination while waiting for the best moment to act.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You have probably experienced many distractions over the past few days. Although the busy pace hasn’t fully settled down yet, it’s time to concentrate your scattered energy and pay less attention to anything that keeps you from doing what you must. It may take extra effort today, but setting priorities enables you to accomplish more now and gives you extra time to relax later on.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You may find your professional responsibilities overwhelming now. Although too many tasks are pulling you in too many directions, you want to narrow your focus to do one thing at a time. Ultimately, you feel better when the quality of your work meets your high expectations, yet you can’t perform at this level when you’re under pressure. Take a stand; discuss your concerns with your boss so you can set a new agenda that gives you the chance to do each task well.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You may not be as productive as others expect of you, but the most important work you’re doing now is taking place within your mind. Maintain any appearances that are necessary to give yourself the room you need to continue your inner journey. Keep in mind that today’s creative ideas can fuel your accomplishments in the days ahead. Get lost in your imagination to find the keys to your success.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Your willingness to go along with someone else’s plan today doesn’t mean you are without your own limits. You may be pushed into an uncomfortable emotional confrontation if you think that anyone is taking unfair advantage of your flexibility. Try not to blame others for their shortcomings; focus on your feelings rather than what anyone else did or didn’t do. This compassionate strategy allows for the best possible outcome for everyone involved.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

A relationship with a powerful person may come to a head today as clashing points of view require resolution. However, a direct confrontation won’t produce a winner, so avoid locking horns with anyone to prevent unnecessary drama. Instead of arguing about who is right and who is wrong, explore common ground so you can accomplish more than either of you could on your own.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You could be busier than normal today, but you aren’t one to be afraid of hard work. It’s just that you don’t like being pulled all over the map to put out fires as you handle a string of small crises. Although you might be quite effective taking care of problems as they surface, it prevents you from accomplishing what was on your initial agenda. Fortunately, there’s no need to struggle; you can return to your unfinished projects tomorrow once everything settles down.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Although crosscurrents at work require your undivided attention today, you’re up for nearly anything. Your positive attitude will take you far, but be careful that your eagerness doesn’t set up a situation where you are stretched so thin that you cannot do a good job at any one task. Stay aware of your energy level so you can maintain a sustainable pace and, ultimately, feel good at the end of the day.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You may be stressed by a relationship problem that can interfere with your concentration on the job today. Or, maybe your emotional needs are in conflict with your current work obligations. Either way, you need to find a sensible course of action that allows you to remain in touch with the issues without believing that you must fix anything right away. Resolution will come in time if you don’t push too hard now.

Your Love Horoscopes for the Week of August 13th

There may be explosive devices on the road to love as sweet Venus crashes into hard aspects with volatile Uranus and provocative Pluto on Wednesday and Thursday. Radical changes in circumstances and sudden shifts in attitudes can slam shut one door, but then a window of opportunity swings open just as quickly. Stay flexible and expect the unexpected when it comes to matters of the heart. The expressive Leo New Moon on Friday morning adds another dash of drama to the mix.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Give your pursuit for romance a rest as a more patient approach to partnerships is called for this week. Irrepressible Mars joins responsible Saturn in your 7th House of Others on Wednesday to bring relationship issues to a head. You can repair damage and earn trust by being truthful about your desires. It’s not easy to deal with a demanding person or a stressful situation, but this is a chance to demonstrate that you’re willing to work for love. The bold Leo New Moon on Friday gets your weekend off to a hot and spicy start.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

This complex time is highlighted by your key planet Venus’ stressful connections with disruptive Uranus and evocative Pluto midweek. Don’t try to hold on to plans, people or values that have outlived their usefulness. If you’re willing to let go of the past and step out of your comfort zone, which admittedly isn’t easy for Taurus, Friday’s generous Leo New Moon will bring you even more pleasure in return. The transition may be a bit bumpy, but is a necessary part of your heart’s journey.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

The analytical Virgo Moon travels through your 4th House of Roots this weekend, provoking a bit of practical self-examination and possible changes on the home front. Focusing on one critical issue can lead to a breakthrough that allows you to find a successful resolution. The more willing you are to look deeply within and start making adjustments the freer you will feel. Your confidence grows when you face your inner truth and start acting upon it.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

An in-depth conversation can lead to surprisingly successful results this week. Friday’s expressive Leo New Moon falls in your 2nd House of Self-Esteem, which is ideal for rethinking your priorities when it comes to your time and energy. Clear thinking and straight talking are on the weekend’s agenda once the Moon shifts into rational Virgo and your 3rd House late Friday afternoon. Explaining yourself without letting your emotions take over can heal wounded alliances or open the way toward a new one. Don’t be shy about asking tough questions if you want to know the truth.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

Friday’s New Moon in your courageous and demonstrative sign provides the drive, confidence and creativity to go after who and what you want. But you’re also guided by common sense and patience as energetic Mars and realistic Saturn align favorably with this Sun-Moon conjunction. A little bit of self-restraint is perfect for the weekend as the Moon enters practical Virgo where details count and remaining reasonable is a must.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Your wit is a powerful asset this weekend with the Moon’s presence in your sharp-minded sign and brainy Mercury aligning creatively with innovative Uranus. Bright ideas attract attention but be careful to avoid being so clever your comments go over people’s heads. Pay close attention to your audience so that you can make the connections you’re seeking unless you have so much going on in your mind that you secretly wish you could be alone.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Partying with pals is perfect this Friday with the enthusiastic Leo New Moon landing in your 11th House of Groups. Even if you feel like staying home, getting together with friends is bound to boost your spirits. This New Moon aligns favorably with assertive Mars and productive Saturn in your sign, which earns you rewards thanks to your sense of responsibility. This trust is a precious asset for building lasting relationships, so treat it with the respect it deserves.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Friday’s Leo New Moon illuminates your 10th House of Career, which can put you in a leadership position. Creativity and generosity are keys to making the most of your time in the spotlight. The rest of the weekend finds the Moon in practical Virgo and your group-oriented 11th House, which can attract constructive criticism from friends. But if you’re working for a cause in which you passionately believe in, you could make a special connection that will reward you on a personal and professional level.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Your challenge this weekend is to figure out how to take care of all the tasks on your plate and still have some time left over for fun. One way to do this is to start working in advance instead of leaving things until the last minute. Demonstrating how organized you can be may not sound especially enticing, but planning ahead can enhance your reputation and sends a clear message that you are someone who can be trusted.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Escaping from your usual environment puts some extra spice in your personal life this weekend. The earthy Virgo Moon will be in your 9th House of Faraway Places on Saturday and Sunday, which gets your blood pumping when you hit the road. Combining business with pleasure is recommended, but express opinions graciously since minor debates might get out of hand if you’re not careful. Think of life as an adventure and enjoy the ride.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Friday’s audacious Leo New Moon falls in your 7th House of Relationships, which is bound to heat up your personal life. An individual could come on so strong that it turns you off. Sure, you enjoy appreciation and attention but pushy people tend to make you uncomfortable because you like to feel independent. Instead, why not take the lead by making your own bold and exciting plans for your current squeeze or by openly sharing your feelings with someone you want to know better.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

There are some details to be worked out with your present partner this weekend. The analytical Virgo Moon is in your 7th House of Relationships where untangling knots is a key to happiness. If you’re single and looking, be discriminating about your connections. Don’t waste time on petty and critical people who are more into putting you down than building you up. Waiting for the right person who will cherish your heart is the first step to romantic success.

Your Daily Horoscopes for Sunday, August 12

We may have so many things to do today that we don’t know where to begin. The fickle Gemini Moon makes it tricky to set priorities because we can change our minds at the drop of a hat. Fortunately, this lack of stability is counterbalanced by the Moon’s harmonious trine to the stabilizing Mars-Saturn conjunction that’s exact on Wednesday. Although Mars says go and Saturn says stop, the dualistic Gemini Moon enables us to do a little bit of both.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You may have recently experienced a resurgence of creative energy, whether you made progress on an existing project or are fired up about a new one. However, today you could be torn between continuing your productivity and just taking time to enjoy the summer weekend. Indulging in pleasure is a great idea, but be sure to balance your play with something more practical, too.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

Even if you wake up raring to go, you may lose steam during the day. You feel as if your energy level is high, encouraging you to say yes before you consider the whole picture in a realistic manner. Set clear boundaries to avoid running out of fuel before the day is over. Be conservative as you make your plans; doing less ensures you’ll have the necessary resources to finish what you start.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

Don’t let anyone talk you out of doing what you want today. However, keep in mind that your antennae might pick up on more potential fun than you have time for now. Ultimately, you need to monitor your own behavior so you don’t overextend your energy. Ironically, acting in a responsible manner enables you to enjoy yourself and still complete your chores.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

Your feelings seem to go back and forth between hot and cold today. Although you are upbeat about the possibilities, reality sets in as you meet up with unavoidable obstacles. Taking care of your obligations outweighs other more exciting plans. Listen to the voice of reason; doing the right thing now will have a positive impact on the week ahead.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

Although you’re often the life of the party, this weekend you might take things to a whole new level. You may be temporarily free from some of the more serious responsibilities that have kept you occupied these past few days. Go ahead and let your hair down, but don’t overdo the fun and games because you will need to be at your best for the busy week ahead.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

It’s likely that you will become more involved within your own community today, possibly even in a leadership role. Although you might not have the inclination to take on additional obligations at this time, the Moon’s presence in your 10th House of Status prompts you to jump in and help others anyway. Everyone appreciates your willingness to come forward and lend a hand.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Your fortune seems to be swinging back and forth today, like a pendulum. One moment everything appears rosy, yet a few minutes later you feel stuck. The optimism rises and falls, making you uncertain about your choices now. There’s no need to be self-critical; just keep your goals in sight and continue to do the best you can to achieve them. Observe your emotional variations without trying to stabilize the movement. Although it may take a few days, your feelings will settle down on their own.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You might be reconsidering your life’s direction in a way that gives you a deeper perspective. Sometimes it’s challenging to think clearly when your emotions are stirred, but you have a chance today to be passionate while still being logical. Don’t try to make any long-term decisions now; just let your mind meander through the various scenarios and mull over all the possibilities.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

A friend’s scattered behavior may be distracting now as you unsuccessfully try to finish what you started. But others are not the real problem; your attention span is rather limited today and you might be eager to jump at the opportunity when someone suggests something fun to do. Even if you don’t complete everything you begin, staying focused long enough to make a bit of progress will bring you more satisfaction.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

It’s time to improve your current exercise program or, at least, get off the couch and go for a walk. You’re thinking about options today you normally might ignore, and hopefully one of them is exactly what you need for inspiration. But making plans is not enough now; you must put your best ideas into action as soon as possible. The sooner you start, the better your chances are for success.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Creative activities are highlighted now, whether you are redecorating around the home, working on an artistic project or planning an adventure with kids. Since the Moon is traveling through your 5th House of Fun and Games, it’s also possible to channel your own inner child. Even if you feel young at heart, there’s still a serious tone to the day. Successfully balancing work and play is your current key to happiness.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

The Moon’s current visit to your 4th House of Security reminds you that it’s important to make time for contemplation. Write in your journal today or talk about your needs with a close friend or family member. An unusual mixture between self-reflection and a desire to connect with others may prompt emotional disclosure now, which can lead to increased intimacy. However, it’s your choice; you must be willing to take the risk and confide in someone you trust.

Your Daily Horoscopes for August 10th

Motivating ourselves may be a problem today unless something happens to make us uncomfortable, because the easygoing Taurus Moon prompts us to sustain activities that bring us pleasure. We could become so entrenched in where we are and what we’re doing that we don’t want anything to change. However, we quickly grow restless once the Moon shifts into changeable Gemini at 4:10 pm EDT, giving us a second wind just in time to enjoy the weekend.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Settling in to a slower pace isn’t as easy as it sounds. Nevertheless, it’s a smart idea to relax while you can because the pace is going to pick up again later in the day. Try practicing reliable techniques such as yoga, t’ai chi or meditation. If you have excess energy, take a walk, work in the garden or do something creative. Just make sure you partake in activities that rejuvenate you rather than depleting you.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

It might seem as if someone is pushing your emotional buttons now just to upset you, but your resistance is strong and you won’t likely get involved in other people’s dramas. Your stubbornness works in your favor when establishing your boundaries today. You can be bull-headed yet, thankfully, others won’t take your lack of interest as a personal rejection. Nevertheless, give yourself permission to change your mind at the last moment.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

Your imagination is busy with captivating fantasies today, challenging you to stay focused on the events in the outer world. However, you may actually become single-minded as you mull the same image over and over again in your daydream. Don’t worry; your current obsession won’t last long and soon you will be back to your old playful and productive self once more.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

Your mind doggedly pulls you into the future, whether or not you’re ready for it. However, your current thoughts aren’t just idle musings; you’re actually laying the foundation for what will unfold over the months ahead. Instead of cutting yourself off from the connections to your own memories, weave them into your dreams. Your subconscious will do the rest.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You might feel uneasy today with the expectations of others conflicting with your own ideas about how you want to spend your day. Try to avoid bringing a conflict to a head now, for it probably won’t resolve the tension anyhow. Instead, accept the differences between your needs and your reality. Discussing your worries with a good friend over the weekend will help to soothe your concerns.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

It’s difficult to find satisfaction today because your plans seem to be getting cold while sitting on the back burner. But even if some larger pieces of the puzzle are out of place, enough of the smaller ones fit so well that the energy still flows. Nevertheless, you’re wise to take it slowly and use this time to rejuvenate and prepare for the next adventure around the corner.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

It may seem readily apparent to you that others are attempting to influence your feelings in an indirect way today. Unfortunately, your friends won’t come right out and say what they want. Instead, you feel an awkward undercurrent and there isn’t much you can do about it other than recognizing it for what it is. It’s crucial to remember that you don’t need to sink to a level of retaliation. Moving ahead with your own agenda is your best course of action.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You might feel as if others are trying to make something appear less complicated than it is now. You are all too familiar with the truth, but cannot get anyone to see it from your perspective. Accept that there are totally different ways of looking at a similar experience. Multiple points of view bring much-needed awareness and choice. Seeking common ground increases your chances for success.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You’re off in your own world today, reminiscing about a recent trip or planning your next one. However, reality keeps calling you back to the boring tasks at hand. Although you might rather be somewhere else, it’s necessary to concentrate on your current work now. Take care of chores as soon as possible and you’ll be able to enjoy yourself without remorse over the weekend.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

A gentle dance between your heart and your head can lure you into socially warm waters today. You might feel as if you are trying to overcome some old limitations that are based on an unpleasant memory. Fortunately, the past is over and you aren’t tied to yesterday. Your current truths are quite different now. There’s not as much risk in the present moment as you think. Just do what comes naturally and enjoy the ride.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Be cautious about your interactions with others today since complex emotional issues can drain you of much-needed energy. You don’t need to take someone else’s problems and automatically make them yours, even if you care a great deal about the people involved. Listen with an open heart, but keep some of your feelings private, nonetheless.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

This relatively quiet day can turn chatty if a co-worker tells you more than you need to know. However, you cannot just ignore someone in need when he or she comes to you with a problem. Thankfully, lending a helping hand doesn’t mean giving up your own agenda. Let others know your limits and then stick to them.

Your Weekend Lunar Love Horoscopes for Aug. 10 – 12

Weekend Love: Lunar Love by Jeff Jawer

A Lighter Love

August 10 – 12

The Moon skips into diverse Gemini on Friday afternoon, multiplying our social options this weekend. Since moods shift quickly in this adaptable sign, it’s better to plan short events instead of longer ones that could become boring. Mentally stimulating activities and conversations carry a fun, playful quality, so it’s easy to chat up just about anyone now. We’re not looking for commitment; simply seeking connections that come without the pressure of high expectations. It’s best not to take people too seriously now since the depth of our feelings may not match the eloquence of our words.
Variety is the spice of Gemini life, so be sure not to stick with the usual weekend routines. Doing different things together can help to revive an ongoing relationship or lead to meeting someone new. Connections comes easily, but aren’t necessarily made to last. If you’re concerned about a relationship, this might be a good time to talk about issues, but don’t expect this to be the end of the discussion

Daily Horoscopes for Thursday, Aug. 9th

Our fantasies are sweet as sensuous Venus creates an easy trine with illusory Neptune. These are the two planets of love and beauty; Venus symbolizes our personal desires and expressions, while Neptune is more spiritual and diffused. Our dreams are mixed up with reality today as Venus and Neptune conspire, and we can grow infatuated with our visions of ideal love. Fortunately, the earthy Taurus Moon prevents us from drifting off into space.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Rather than pushing your agenda on others today, it’s better to trust your instincts and pay attention to your changing feelings. Luckily, your allies have your best interests at heart, so it’s a smart strategy to listen to what they have to say. Even if your goals seem impractical or unattainable now, don’t be afraid to reach for your dreams while they are still near enough to touch.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

Your ruling planet Venus teaches you a lesson in compassion today as she harmonizes with spiritual Neptune. However, this kind of dreamy love doesn’t come naturally since you prefer to keep things real. Keep in mind that sometimes stretching outside of your comfort zone is well worth the effort. Opening your heart does not put you in any real danger now since the practical Taurus Moon comes to the rescue and brings your fantasies down to earth.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

A visionary boss or associate may become a close mentor now, but you must be willing to embrace him or her beyond a superficial level. Others won’t accept your clever wit as a substitute for a real connection of the heart today, so don’t let your nonchalant attitude distract you from sharing your dreams. Instead, enjoy the beauty of the emotional support that is available to you now.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

You’re able to soak in the admiration from others today, but you must also be willing to reach out to express what you want. You might actually be more eager than anyone realizes now, but you have to be comfortable before revealing your heart. If you’re insecure, you can quickly clam up. Your current challenge is to stay present even if you feel vulnerable; share your perspective so others can see what you have to offer.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You may be totally charmed by someone you meet today and could even fall in love. But the entire relationship might occur only within your imagination. You’re hesitant to share your feelings with anyone else because you have trouble seeing a good reason to come clean with your fantasies. It’s crucial to give yourself permission to explore your desires whether or not you express any of them out loud. Honor your heart by listening to what it wants.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You may not be able to keep your perspective rational today because you’re probably dreaming about an unrealistic relationship. You might also be wondering how you can put your desires into words. Unfortunately, your interactions with others seem too shallow to express the depth of your feelings. Don’t give up before you even try. Go ahead and convey your message anyhow; the right person will understand your point perfectly.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Your key planet Venus is visiting your 10th House of Career, enabling you to enjoy the magical vibes of her alignment with Neptune in a professional manner. Being on a creative high can be exhilarating today, especially when others at work acknowledge your artistic talent or your dramatic flair. Do whatever is necessary to motivate yourself into action; you’ll be very happy with the results.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Usually, you aren’t one to evade intensity or sidestep difficult issues, yet today it is a tempting possibility. You see great potential everywhere you look now, but don’t want to do anything to mess up what you currently have going. Keep in mind that suppressed feelings can be expressed gently in a way that’s productive instead of destructive. It’s the timing and the tone that make all the difference.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You might be feeling pretty good today and think that everything is wonderful. It’s easy to believe a fantasy now, especially if it offers you some sort of emotional security. But even if you are being nurtured, your need for adventure may stir up uncertainties about your current relationship situation. The more you try to ignore your concerns, the more intense they become. Ironically, staying in touch with your discomfort can actually improve your day.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You may not like the idea of lessening your resistance, even if you secretly would like to try. You are attracted to exploring a potentially positive experience today, but you feel safer within the formality of rules. However, your dilemma won’t be solved with a simple all-or-nothing choice now. Observe when you tighten your muscles or hold your breath; engage your heart, instead of automatically closing it down.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You’re ready to enjoy the finer things in life today, but there may not be time since it’s busier than a typical workday. You have sufficient energy to do your job, but unexpressed desires could get in the way. Unfortunately, the more you try to concentrate, the more persistent your fantasies become. Instead of pushing them away now, focus on ways to make your dreams come true.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Your key planet Neptune trines enchanting Venus today, activating your desire for love. Venus is visiting your 5th House of Romance and Creativity, encouraging you to pursue a relationship. Don’t worry about what others think. Nevertheless, you are seeing things as you wish them to be in an ideal situation, rather than how they are now. Wait a few days before making any significant choices regarding matters of the heart.

Daily Horoscopes for Wednesday, August 8

We finally exit the starting gate, yet are cautious about moving too quickly. Nevertheless, we are determined to reach our goals by beginning slowly and building up steam until we attain a productive pace. Although mental Mercury turns direct today, giving us the green light to go ahead, it takes a few days to regain its speed. Meanwhile, the Moon’s shift into stable Taurus at 3:27 am EDT advises common sense rather than impulsive action.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You are at a fork in the road, anticipating the journey ahead. Although you aren’t sure of all the details yet, you have probably given them quite a bit of thought. Don’t let your optimism overshadow potential obstacles. Shortcuts taken today will be problematic tomorrow, but doing the right thing now will pay off in the weeks ahead.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

The Moon’s current visit to your sign may sugarcoat your memories as you think about your past. As you look to the future, your plans seem more reliable than they actually are. Fortunately, your chances for success are still good if you make sure everything is in order and that you keep a practical perspective. Although you won’t reach your goals overnight, your dreams can come true if you remain focused on your destination.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

Your key planet Mercury has been retracing its steps in the sky since mid-July, requiring you to revisit mental ground you thought was already covered. However, now it’s time to set your sights on where you will be going next and to start moving in that direction. Stop talking about what you want to do and begin doing it today.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

There is a conflict between your head and your heart now, but you have tools at your disposal to work out the differences. No one said this current transition would be easy, but the energy does seem to be lightening up. You feel positive today about the very same things that were overwhelming you just last week. Take advantage of your newfound optimism to overcome any fears you might have of failure. Anything is possible as long as you believe.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You may start the day feeling good only to find frustration knocking at your door later on. Unfortunately, you are so enthusiastic about what’s happening that you want everything right now. However, the present moment cannot give you all that you need. A more successful strategy is to give yourself a couple of weeks to see how things develop. In the meantime, practice patience while concentrating on your goal.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You are particularly sensitive to the movements of your ruling planet Mercury. The messenger planet hangs apparently motionless in the sky today and you may feel that same stillness reflected within your thoughts. Cut yourself some slack if you aren’t as far along on a project as you think you should be now. Mercury speeds up over the days ahead and your efforts will begin to reap the rewards you seek.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You’re feeling self-indulgent today and you are willing to do whatever you must to get your share of pleasure. However, striving for satisfaction seems to be an uphill battle and you might be unpleasantly surprised that your desires are going to take longer to fulfill than you originally believed. Maintain a positive attitude, for that will make your trek easier. Remember, appreciating the journey is just as important as reaching the destination.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You know what you want professionally and you want it now. You’ve been working hard for weeks yet you aren’t sure you have enough to show for your efforts. Still, clever Mercury’s direct turn in your 10th House of Career is a harbinger for the success that’s coming your way. Everything has taken a long time, but your confidence is returning and you know you’ll be rewarded. Don’t give up; you’re closer to your dreams than you think.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Plans that you made at the beginning of summer could finally be coming together now. However, it’s too soon to take your work to the next level because there may be just a few final details that need to be put in place before you’re off and running. Try not to be in such a hurry. You will arrive at your destination at exactly the right moment.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

It’s tricky to find balance today, since you may be tempted to extend beyond your usual limits. Reaching too far might upset your equilibrium, and you stand to lose the gains you already made through hard work. If your dream is just out of reach now, you probably can get along without it. And if it’s something you were meant to have, you should be able to earn it more easily in the days ahead.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Focus on your work now; powerful lessons are yours for the learning. Often there is some pain associated with assimilating what we need to know. But the difficult side of this cosmic equation is minimal today, since you can dig deeply, experience the emotional juice and then get on with your day. Slow down and you’ll have more time to soak it all in.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Although you may be happily engaged in a very busy day filled with a variety of activities, you have a keen ability to find stability amidst a storm. Ironically, you’re not as flexible now as you seem with the stubborn Taurus Moon visiting your 3rd House of Immediate Environment. Don’t worry so much about meeting others halfway today; be strong and hold your position. Once you establish that you mean business, you can negotiate from a position of strength, not weakness.

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 (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 (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 (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.

There may not be any showy fireworks, but the feelings can run very deep.

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 (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 (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 (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 (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 (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 (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 (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

As a sensitive Water sign you are comforted by Venus’ entry into soothing Cancer and your 5th House of Romance. In fact, this transit may bring some sweet relief to a relationship dynamic that was recently a source of stress. Thankfully, you’re able to lighten up and be more playful now. Pay attention; love might be just around the corner.

Daily Horoscopes for August 6

An unexpected emotional encounter in the morning is likely when the combative Aries Moon activates domineering Pluto and irrepressible Uranus. However, our memory fades quickly along with any lingering negativity as the Moon harmonizes with jolly Jupiter and the radiant Sun. Although we may express our emotions before thinking about the consequences, everything should work out fine as long as we remember to consider the feelings of others, too.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You know what you want today with the Moon in your sign, yet impulsively announcing your desires to the world isn’t necessarily the most effective way to reach satisfaction. You could stir up an emotional hornet’s nest by saying more than is necessary. Thankfully, a little self-restraint goes a long way now. But it’s not necessary to keep all your thoughts to yourself. Revealing your most uplifting feelings allows you to walk on the sunny side of the street.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

You really don’t have to say much today because that special someone probably already knows what you are feeling, even if you think you’re keeping a secret. There are lots of different ways to be demonstrative; although verbal communication may be the most obvious, it’s not always the most efficient. Your acts of kindness toward those you love enable you to get your message across loud and clear.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

Your current wave of enthusiasm can create a big splash with your partner or lover. However, a long-winded speech might have the opposite effect unless you follow your good intentions with sincere actions. People may tire of your sweet talk. Delivering the goods is more impressive than empty promises.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

You shouldn’t have to work so hard at letting someone know how much you care. Ironically, sometimes expressing what you feel is so easy that others think you’re not really being sincere. Naturally, this misunderstanding can be frustrating. Steer clear of flattery and flowers; stick to the facts and speak straight from your heart.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You might exaggerate today as you try to paint the most positive picture of your love life. However, your words can be misleading now as talkative Mercury nears the end of its retrograde period. Even if you believe that you’re being clear, others may still hear what they want to hear. Fortunately, your actions speak the truth in a way that cannot be misinterpreted. Say less and do more.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Communication skills are crucial today, especially if you want to delve beneath the surface to discover what’s real. Exploring your feelings is difficult now without the support of others. But a visit to a therapist or counselor won’t be able to replace a heartfelt discussion with someone you love. Keep in mind that finding the truth is less important than the process of interaction. There are no absolute rights or wrongs when it comes to matters of the heart.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

It may seem as if everyone is a bit jumpy today and their reactions can be extreme. Nevertheless, avoid basing your actions on how you think someone will respond to you. Instead of carefully weighing your words, just say what’s on your mind while still conveying kindness and respect. Others will be so appreciative of your positive attitude that they might not even care if you disagree with them.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Instead of doing your job according to the established routine now, take a risk and experiment with a different plan.

You may be so eager to open your heart today that you don’t notice the potential trouble that lies ahead.

Thankfully, acknowledging your vulnerability draws others closer to you and disperses lingering feelings of loneliness. Saying exactly how you feel now will likely lead to more intimacy in the days ahead.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Others might be walking on eggshells when they are near you because they don’t want to unnecessarily stir up difficult emotions now. However, this may be the exact opposite of what you want. You can set an example by expressing your desires clearly instead of keeping your desires to yourself. But being brutally honest doesn’t mean that you have the right to hurt someone’s feelings. Say what you must while remaining sensitive in your delivery.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You wish that you could push your feelings into new territory, but you still might be cautious with your words. Oddly enough, it’s easier to demonstrate what you want with bold actions rather than rationalizing your needs. Keep in mind that you are not responsible for how anyone reacts to your decisions. Nevertheless, you can be true to yourself and still be kind to others at the same time.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You’re feeling optimistic today about what you have to offer others in your life. You are excited about exploring this newfound confidence by sharing your exciting plans with your family or coworkers. However, they may not be as supportive as you wish, so downplay your original ideas to be safe. Ultimately, you’re more believable if you speak matter-of-factly, without turning everything into such a big deal.

The Daily Horoscopes for Sunday, August 5

We need to finish old business today and prepare for an active week because messenger Mercury is ending its retrograde phase to turn direct on Wednesday. Meanwhile, dreaming is more natural than taking action as the Moon floats through surreal Pisces until 4:58 pm EDT. However, there’s no time to waste on this transition day; the Moon’s shift into enterprising Aries pushes us into high gear and sets the energetic tone for the days ahead.

The

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You are buzzed by the Moon’s afternoon entry into your sign, prompting you to feel more aggressive than usual.

Fortunately, if you consciously relinquish power, instead of attempting to accumulate more of it, others will honor your wisdom and you’ll be able to avoid unnecessary conflict.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

Although one cycle is coming to an end, the new one has not yet begun to unfold. Nevertheless, there is still a lot going on, even though it may feel as if you are between two major events. There’s no need to rush into initiating a new project. Although time seems to be in short supply, you actually have more of it than you think. Give yourself permission to relax while you have the chance.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

You may be at the end of your rope today, yet you still are unable to put your feet on the ground. You probably know exactly what you should be doing now, but compassion for someone close to you might influence you to take a different course of action. Remember, there isn’t any one correct solution to your dilemma. In fact, there isn’t only one question. It’s time to do what you Twins do best: enjoy the exquisitely delicious paradox of life.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

Your feelings rise to the surface today, even if you try to keep them hidden. Consciously withholding your emotions won’t work and you can’t push them away just because they are difficult to integrate. Instead of resisting the inevitable, let your inner process flow outward. Although it may be scary at first, ironically you will feel more secure once others see what’s going on in your heart.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You’re in a rather feisty mood today, yet your confidence might not be up to par. Still, you’re willing to put yourself on the line and tell it like it is — even if you’re not sure about what’s going on now. There’s no need to overcompensate by pretending that everything is fine. Instead, acknowledge your uncertainty and see what lessons you can learn about yourself.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You may be facing some of your own fears and insecurities today, even if they appear to be coming from someone else. It feels as if your friends aren’t telling you everything that they know, but it could just be their lack of clarity. Nevertheless, it seems like you’re missing something significant. Don’t dig too deeply now, unless you are willing to deal with the can of worms you might open as you gain new insight about your relationships.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You may not handle emotional uncertainty very well but, paradoxically, you don’t mind your own ambivalence. You just don’t like it when it comes from someone else. You’re tempted to take out your frustration on others today, but it’s only because you aren’t sure about what’s going on. Don’t worry about what to do; concentrate instead on how you feel. Keep in touch with your heart, no matter what comes into awareness.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You’re energized to do something new and different before the imaginative Pisces Moon leaves your 5th House of Fun. You feel more carefree now and you’re prepared to blast through the restraints that have prevented your spontaneous creativity. Don’t spend too much time in deep analysis today. It may be healthier in the long run to just write yourself a permission slip to play.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You may have inadvertently fallen prey to your own desires, and now there are no quick escape routes. Your way out of this self-made trap is by heading directly for the center of the building storm.

Happily, your willingness to let go of your expectations might be all that’s required to free yourself from disappointment.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

It’s challenging to get a handle on the day because every situation seems to take its own course without regard to your preferences. The uncertainty of how to respond to the twists and turns of events makes the day an unsolvable riddle. You might feel as if time is speeding up, but this quickening may just be a result of your own sense of urgency. Clarity begins to return later in the day as your routine settles down over the next few days.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Your personal finances may be confusing today and it’s difficult to decide on a sensible course of action.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Those closest to you might think that you aren’t very dependable today, but they may have unrealistic expectations.

Fortunately, you won’t have to fight to get your way if you calmly inform others of your priorities right from the start. You could be pleasantly surprised when you receive more support than you expect.

Daily Horoscopes for Saturday, August 4

Although we might try to clear up recent sloppy thinking, our fantasies remain larger than life today. Rational Mercury in expressive Leo encourages us to say exactly what we mean, but its retrograde motion makes the right words elusive. Additionally, Mercury’s slippery quincunx to hazy Neptune can hijack logic and blur reality. It’s easy to confuse fact and fiction now, especially as the imaginative Pisces Moon squares opinionated Jupiter.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Your feet might not touch the ground today, for cosmic influences are pulling you into the spiritual and dream realms. You’re eager to leave your chores behind for a while so you can space out.

Bring the big ideas back down to earth and proceed one step at a time to reach your goals.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

Although you may appear to resist change, you are probably much more adaptable than others realize. After all, you Crabs are in tune with the rhythms of the sea.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

It is challenging to separate your dreams from what’s real now, but the hard cold facts just won’t go away.

Focus on the positive tangible aspects so you can remain open to the love around you, even if it isn’t quite what you imagined.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Your spiritual and metaphysical interests may be gaining a more significant role in your life these days.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You may be unclear about where you’re going in your career now that confusing Neptune is aligning with retrograde Mercury in your 10th House of Career.

Your dilemma du jour is a familiar old pattern that resonates from time to time. You wish that you could live your life in a big way, as if you were an action hero in an adventure story.

Thankfully, conscious communication can help you navigate through this tricky territory.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Intimate relationships could be a source of confusion today, especially if you aren’t really listening to what the other person is saying.

We are more empathic now since there is only one ocean of consciousness.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Confusion may arise today as fast as you can gain clarity. Every question you answer just peels off another layer of the growing onion. Seeking positive solutions may feel like a hopeless battle.

But you don’t have to move so fast; there are goodies to be discovered if you allow enough time to untangle the complexities before giving up.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

It can be disarming if your data aims you one way while an intuitive hunch suggests that you should be doing something else.

You’ll feel better about what your choice if you wait before swinging into action.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

You have gathered all the necessary information and have successfully withheld your feelings as you developed your plan.

You’ve made it this far, so don’t blow it by acting too soon. The turning point is next week.

Trust in yourself and your clarity will return.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You can’t stop thinking about something that’s been bothering you recently. You intuitively understand that the only way anything will get better is to talk about it until the energy settles. However, it’s difficult to bring your intense feelings out into the open because the resultant vulnerability makes you uncomfortable. Be courageous and move directly toward the source of your discomfort, not away from it.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

This is one of those days when your head and your heart aren’t reading from the same adventure novel. You may be feeling softer and more compassionate than you are acting as your cavalier behavior masks your vulnerability. Thankfully, you can regain your focus by looking within and exploring your motives for not sharing what’s in your heart. There’s no need to hide behind a false sense of bravado; just be yourself.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You can be a fount of strength if you let go of your own self-criticism for a while. You’re ready to discover how much you have to offer others. Your carefully chosen words have the power to heal, and you have co-workers who can really use your help today. Push beyond any personal resistance to the idea of being a healer and start listening to those around you with an open heart.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Self-doubt can be debilitating today, especially if it prevents you from being part of a crucial discussion. Fortunately, your thoughts are quite powerful and more connected to your core essence these days. Your perspective is desperately needed now, no matter what it is. Share your opinions, but be careful about overstating your cause in order to cover your own uncertainty.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Your imagination is far more active now that the Moon is paddling through your watery sign. Go ahead and sink into your dreams today, but be wary about using them to escape from the difficult emotions attached to real world circumstances. Fortunately, the symbolism that bubbles up from your unconscious might be the key that clarifies your current uncertainty. Once you are in touch with the meaning, you can change your attitude about what’s happening.

Your Love Horoscope for the Weekend of Aug. 3 – 5

Weekend Love: Lunar Love by Jeff Jawer

Love Without Limits

August 3 – 5

Sweet romantic dreams and escapes from reality help love flow more freely this weekend. The Moon is in sensitive Pisces from Friday morning to Sunday afternoon, inviting escapes and getaways where problems are left behind. Let go of practical matters as much as possible to enjoy the fantasyland of delight offered by this compassionate and boundless Water sign. Feelings flow easily when we don’t bog them down with criticism or overthinking.

A lunar conjunction with Pisces’ mystical ruling planet Neptune imbues Friday with an extra dose of compassion and creativity that can melt barriers between hearts and turn an ordinary day into a memorable one. Imagination may be the greatest aphrodisiac, and it’s plentiful with the Moon in Pisces. Music, movies, and all the arts touch our souls, and nature’s generosity allows us all to feel loved without judgment. Vulnerability is high, though, so we should be especially kind to others. Finding common ground is easy when we stop worrying about minor matters that can keep us apart. A spiritual perspective allows us to feel safe enough to let go of our doubts. Surrender to the pleasures of having no ambition other than the desire to share your life without limits.

Your Daily Horoscopes for August 2nd

It’s easier to ask for what we want today as the Sun in expressive Leo forms an anxious semisquare with romantic Venus. An optimistic Sun-Jupiter sextile further encourages us to take a risk for love. However, physical Mars aligns with dreamy Neptune, adding confusion to the mix. We may have confidence at first, but lose steam throughout the day. Fortunately, the intelligent Aquarius Moon gives us glimpses of clarity so we know how to proceed.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Quirky expressions of energy may be motivated by very straightforward desires today. But even if you know what you want, it’s difficult to put your feelings into words. Try not to judge yourself too harshly if you give up before you can make someone understand you. Knowing when to back off reduces the stress for everyone. Being patient helps your cause now; remember communicator Mercury ends its retrograde phase next week and things will begin to turn around.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

You believe that life should be simple, but it’s not. Your current work situation may be causing tension, prompting you to worry about your financial circumstances. You can make it all work out, but the solutions won’t be what you expect. Take the initiative and talk about your dilemma, since clear communication must be a key component of your strategy today.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

You excel as a communicator, but you have been holding back some of your thoughts recently. You may be getting bored with this self-restraint because you’re feeling charged up and ready for some fun. However, others might resist your plans if you push too hard or move too quickly. There’s no need to upset anyone with your sense of urgency. You will be more successful getting what you want if you continue to take your time and proceed with sensitivity.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

It seems as if you need to concentrate on taking care of yourself now, but you might not know how. Although someone may not be giving you what you want, there’s no reason to think you’ll remain unfulfilled. You could scare off others if you appear desperate, so acting in a self-sufficient manner is a smarter approach. When you take decisive action on your own behalf, those around will be more likely to respond supportively.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You feel more connected with your heart now, but a close friend or partner might think you’re self-absorbed. Unfortunately, you could become fixated on getting something that you want. You may not realize how much of a negative impact your neediness has on those around you. Thankfully, your personal relationships deepen when you trust your instincts without pushing others too far.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You may believe that you’re building your future on a solid foundation today, yet your plans are not as grounded in reality as they seem. The good news is that your confident yet unrealistic vision of what’s ahead could actually turn out to be what you get if you’re willing to follow through with hard work. Don’t let yourself get discouraged if you experience a setback; just pick yourself up and try again. Success comes to those who don’t give up.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

There’s relationship tension brewing today, but it’s hard to know what to do about it. Your key planet Venus is in whimsical Gemini now, putting you in touch with your inner butterfly. It’s easy for you to flit around an issue without fully engaging it. Although you may get fired up with energetic Mars in your sign, its alignment with nebulous Neptune later this evening lessens the stress all the way around. Be patient; you should be able to refocus your intentions tomorrow.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You may be seeking ways to express your individuality at home today with the Moon currently visiting your 4th House of Family. Although the Moon’s harmonious trines with hot Mars and cold Saturn prompt you to act in a more thoughtful and gracious manner, you’re not interested in living your life on stage now where you can be judged by others. Nevertheless, you’re capable of doing nearly anything as long as you know exactly what role you play in the larger picture.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

This is your kind of day, even if there is a difficult emotional issue that needs to be resolved. On one hand, you feel as if your future is opening up before your eyes, in spite of the current dilemma. On the other hand, there are so many choices that you’re uncertain of which way to go. Fortunately, you can take the pressure off the relationship tension by focusing on long-range goals instead of your more immediate concerns.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You finally have a clever way to handle an outstanding financial concern, but achieving real progress may be harder than you think. Fortunately, your logic is sound; trusting your analysis of the current situation is a wise idea. But instead of swinging into motion right away, let things continue to develop for a few days before taking action. Giving yourself a little more time can turn a brilliant plan into a strategy for success.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You might be distracted today by someone close to you as demands of a friend or co-worker prevent you from doing something that you really want to do. It may seem as if there is no immediate way out of this conflict, but beneath the surface tension is your firm belief that everything will somehow work out for the best. Thankfully, a positive outcome is likely, but allow a few extra days before you request to revisit the conversation.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

It feels as if everything is up in the air now, and there’s no quick release button to push that gives you an easy way out of the current tension. Your logic won’t lead to a solution but, paradoxically, your dreams might. Instead of seeking a concrete answer to your questions, allow your fantasies to take you along for a ride. Without the stress of having to find an immediate resolution, your imagination is free to show you exactly what you need to know at this time.

Your Horoscopes for August 1, Lammas

Sudden bursts of awareness crash into our consciousness as today’s ingenious Aquarius Full Moon aligns with quicksilver Mercury and electric Uranus. The Moon’s entry into humanitarian Aquarius at 5:55 am EDT shifts our focus from personal issues toward more global realms. Our emotions continue to grow stronger until the Full Moon at 11:27 pm. Although we want to be connected with a larger group, we must stay detached enough to remain unique.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Your energy may run out of control today as your creativity blossoms. The Aquarius Full Moon activates the radiant Leo Sun in your 5th House of Self-Expression, making you even more spontaneous than usual. On the surface, all is well, but there could be more going on than meets the eye. Watch your step; exercising sensible caution now is more than just good advice to follow.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

You would like your emotions to settle down, yet the Aquarius Full Moon occurs in your 10th House of Career, pulling you back into a familiar pattern at work today. You may grow anxious when you learn that someone didn’t tell you everything; now you want full disclosure before you go on. Uncovering all the details could be challenging at first, but everyone will feel better once the facts are finally out in the open.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

Today’s Aquarius Full Moon falls in your 9th House of Big Ideas, broadening your mental horizons. Unfortunately, this wider perspective can be confusing because you may pick up extra noise along with the important data you need to know. Use whatever psychological or spiritual tools you have to keep a fix on reality, since you’re going to receive some mixed signals from others along the way. Above all, keep your feet on the ground.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

You are deeply connected to lunar rhythms and can’t help but be moved by the intensity of today’s Aquarius Full Moon that brightens your 8th House of Intimacy. Let the emotional tide surge with its swells of unexpected power, but remember that you don’t have to express every passing mood. If you must say something now, do it and then let go. Attachment to your desires adds complexity to an otherwise beautifully simple relationship.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

The Aquarius Full Moon is especially powerful for you Lions, illuminating your 7th House of Relationships. Your emotions are intensified by a partner or close friend who is going through a dramatic change. As tough as it may be today, stay connected while still allowing everyone involved plenty of room to feel independent. Life will settle back down in the days ahead.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You are motivated to find new meaning for your life, yet your outer world may seem uninspired in comparison to what’s happening within your subconscious mind now. However, you’re not required to share anything that doesn’t increase your efficiency with the Aquarius Full Moon highlighting your 6th House of Self-Improvement. You will be happier and healthier if you feel everything fully today, even if you keep your revelations to yourself.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Life may be quite pleasant today with an edge of excitement to make things more interesting. However, your outer reactions might be somewhat subdued. Fortunately, good vibrations are buzzing all around you as the Aquarius Full Moon lights up your 5th House of Love and Creativity with spontaneous fireworks. Enjoy the show while you can without worrying too much about the future.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Today’s Aquarius Full Moon is buried in your 4th House of Roots, but it’s not a smart idea to suppress your emotions. It’s even more important to pay attention to your feelings if your head is telling you one thing and your heart is saying something else. Slipping into denial is neither healthy nor productive. Instead, reconsider your priorities and deal with the underlying issues rather than the symptoms for enduring results.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

The Aquarius Full Moon falls in your 3rd House of Communications, inspiring you to write a letter or make a phone call that you were previously avoiding. Do it right away since what you do today will have the impact you desire. But even if you have good intentions, your intensity can be overwhelming. Be patient and allow everyone enough time to assimilate your words before changing the subject.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

You are highly productive when you set your mind to a specific goal. However, you could physically exhaust yourself if you aren’t careful now, because you’re riding a surge of energy that continues to build over the days ahead. The Aquarius Full Moon’s presence in your 2nd House of Personal Resources enables you to keep yourself grounded. Make time to care for your body and don’t short yourself on sleep. Being at your physical best improves your chances to accomplish your lofty ambitions.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

The thoughts that are flowing in your subconscious are lifted to a high tide level by the brilliant Aquarius Full Moon. Your imagination floods into every aspect of your waking life today. Normally, the Moon works in the realm of dreams, but you cannot contain it now. Embracing the emotional storms can clear the air of stagnant feelings and allow relationships to flourish.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Your heightened sense of urgency may stem from unrealistic fears today as the Aquarius Full Moon illuminates your 12th House of Secrets. Although you might feel as if time is running out, it could just be an illusion. Nevertheless, there is still work to do and you want to finish as much as possible. Close your eyes and take several deep breaths. Then, open your eyes and return to the task at hand. Doing this simple relaxation exercise often throughout the day helps you accomplish more than you thought possible.

Your Daily Horoscopes for July 31

It may actually feel good to put in extra effort today, especially when we experience the satisfaction of a job well done. The industrious Capricorn Moon forms dynamic squares with impulsive Mars and compulsive Saturn, motivating us to overcome any obstacles in our path. We may rush into starting a project without a lot of forethought; fortunately, we can avoid distractions and sustain a steady work pace with a stabilizing Venus-Saturn trine.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You feel as if you have been riding a rollercoaster recently with all your emotional ups and downs. However, now you’re more even-keeled as you get a handle on the relationship between what you desire and what you’re willing to give up in order to get it. If you went overboard on your search for independence, it’s time to be supportive of someone you love to heal the rift you possibly created.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

You may be a very formidable opponent today, even if you’re trying to steer clear of any sort of conflict. Your patience and determination can wear down someone who stands in your way. Your strength comes from your ability to avoid arguments, even if there’s a noticeable difference of opinion. Don’t push too hard; gentle persuasion works in your favor better than anything else.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

You might be protective of your feelings now, but your quiet acceptance of others can help to create peace and harmony. Enjoy the current calm, but remember that it may just be the temporary eye in the center of a storm. Don’t worry about justifying your unconventional goals to anyone today; you are well equipped to tell your story as long as you’re not in a hurry. Slow and steady wins the race.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

Someone could be secretly pulling strings behind the scenes in order to get his or her way. However, you’re not willing to give up your power until you try to bend reality in your direction. It’s challenging to deal with the situation if you don’t know the whole truth. But instead of trying to uncover anyone’s hidden agenda, just concentrate on your own positive action. Save the detective work for some other day.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You know what’s possible today and what’s not. You have a realistic outlook on life now, indicating that this may be a good time to make a decision about a major purchase or a job change. But don’t limit your options by playing it safe. A calculated risk could be your smartest strategy, especially if you’re willing to act methodically, rather than impulsively.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Clarity returns today, allowing you to have confidence about an important decision you must make. However, it’s a mistake to believe that your current choice is your final one because logical Mercury is retrograde in your 12th House of Destiny. You have a general understanding of where you are heading, but there are still specifics to be determined. Give yourself some breathing room so you can respond to the facts as you learn them.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

You probably know more than you’re saying today and no one can get you to spill the beans. Perhaps a friend told you something in confidence, or maybe you just haven’t yet put your ideas into words. Either way, your allies quickly appreciate your high level of integrity now because they understand that you will share what is necessary when the time is right.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You realize that a special relationship is more complicated than it appears, but you’re afraid to disturb what seems to be working so well. Luckily, you’re blessed with sensible friends who will tell you their honest opinions today. Thankfully, the advice they give you now is sound. The current window of opportunity won’t last, so don’t procrastinate. If you want another perspective, ask before it’s too late.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Your friends may grow weary of your tap dancing today because it’s obvious that you don’t want to be pinned down. They would prefer that you say what’s on your mind without beating around the bush or talking in vague generalities. Don’t let your natural resistance to making a commitment turn your allies into enemies. Focus on creating stability, not upsetting it. Honor your friendships by appreciating your loved ones in the present moment.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Your ruling planet Saturn basks in the warmth of delicious Venus today, encouraging you to be extra considerate of those you love. Others are attracted to your current easygoing style, but that doesn’t mean you’re carefree enough to ignore your responsibilities. Although you’re motivated to pursue pleasure now, meet your obligations first and then head out to play with your friends.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

You may be quite serious about relationships today, but you still want to be seen as a person who knows how to have a good time. However, it isn’t easy to enjoy yourself fully now unless you are engaged in creative projects that involve working with others. Achieving satisfaction is more likely if you don’t set your goals too high. Unfortunately, you could become so lazy that you don’t do much at all. Find a way to balance the two extremes since your current happiness depends on it.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You may have to struggle to get a meaningful relationship back on track, especially if you’re currently in the doghouse. Thankfully, you can make up for lost time or bad behavior by paying extra attention to what others need today. But don’t assume that you can earn bonus points by doing all the right things; you’re off to a bad start if you’re keeping score. The best way to re-establish trust now is to combine kindness with honesty while staying present in each and every interaction.

Your Daily Horoscopes for Monday, July 30th

The atmosphere is so electric that we can feel the charge in the air. An eagerness to change leads to ingenious solutions to even the most complex problems. But the superconductive Sun-Uranus trine is tempered by the Moon’s entry into conservative Capricorn at 3:29 am EDT. Nevertheless, caution gives way to movement as the Moon joins intense Pluto and squares unstable Uranus. Thankfully, planets in adaptable Gemini today should keep us flexible.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Something wonderful is going to happen. Although you might not know what it is yet, you can feel it in every cell of your body. Perhaps your willingness to take more of a risk today is what stirs up the excitement. Just remember to discuss your intentions with others before involving them in your crazy plans, since they may not be as eager for the same kind of action.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

You might not be able to get fully comfortable today and your restlessness isn’t helping anyone else relax either. Your anxiety stems in part from what you aren’t saying now. It’s not productive to pretend that all is well if you wish you were doing something else. Remember, the first step to making others happy is to speak from your heart. Your true friends will understand that sometimes you need to follow your bliss.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

Today’s rumbling of excitement rattles your nerves. It may even be challenging to sit still because you want to move physically in resonance with your hyperactive mind. You have an endless string of clever ideas and witty remarks now, but unless you narrow your thinking, the day will end with little to show for all your brilliance. Channel your creativity wisely and use your extra energy to perform random acts of kindness.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

Although you’re normally afraid of losing control, you may have an uncharacteristic attraction to the rush of adrenaline today. You’re up for almost anything, and if nothing exciting is going on, then you might step forward as the instigator. Obstacles fall to the wayside as you dance into a day filled with fun. Spread the joy; it’s contagious.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You seem to be in the flow today. Others think your light is shining brightly and that all is right in your world. However, your emotions are agitated and there’s pandemonium beneath the surface, even if everything appears placid. This kind of intensity might normally be overwhelming, but now you are eager to shoot the rapids of the emotional white waters. Grab your metaphorical kayak and start paddling.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

You want your co-workers to enjoy themselves and you’re willing to expend an extraordinary level of energy to accomplish this goal today. This could be a very social day, so make the most of it by doing something outside your regular routine. Your approach to life is more unconventional than usual, which can be quite thrilling. Shine your light of love and good feelings will reflect back in return.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Everyone expects you to be the steady backbone of the group, but you aren’t interested in playing your regular role by trying to hold it all together today. You prefer your day to be without unnecessary social responsibilities, and could go to great lengths to make your point. Even if you don’t want to upset others with your need to rebel, tell them what you desire. And don’t act too surprised when you receive unexpected support from an unusual source.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

It’s challenging to navigate a course between your need for a quiet retreat and your desire to partake in the scheduled festivities with everyone else. Your friends would like to spend more time with you now, since you can be more fun than you realize. Don’t write off any social engagements just because you think it will distract you from your inner work. The juice you get from others gives you something special that solitude never will.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Group activities allow you to accomplish more today, but you might have to pay too steep of a price. Of course, being a part of a group can also be a lot of fun. Nevertheless, there’s a rebellious part of you that wants to break loose and demonstrate your own unique individuality by striking out on your own. However, solitude isn’t the best answer now. Chill out and allow others to do the planning and set the pace. All you need to do is show up and smile.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Leave your sense of duty behind today so you can have some good old-fashioned fun. This irresponsible behavior may be difficult because you Goats work hard and aspire to greatness, but you truly deserve a break. Forget about your previous accomplishments and don’t worry about what you need to do tomorrow. Just ride the exhilarating wave of enthusiasm now; letting go restores your spirit while also spicing up your life.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

This is a highly stimulating day, so it could be difficult to stay on target if you have specific tasks that need finishing. The Sun is illuminating your key planet, wild Uranus, giving you permission to get a little crazy in your interactions with friends and family. Go ahead, take a chance and embrace the unknown.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

Everything is a bit more hectic today as your thoughts run around in circles. But this isn’t just about a few random ideas; you actually seek out external events now to match your internal intensity. Unfortunately, you may feel disappointed if you can’t find anyone special to share your passion, but don’t let your frustration turn into discouragement. Instead, aim your energy outward and indulge in an activity for the sake of sheer enjoyment.

Your Love Horoscopes for the Week of July 30th

The sociable Aquarius Full Moon on Wednesday night sets the tone for a fun and friendly week. Generous Jupiter joins the party with favorable aspects to the Sun and Moon, inspiring curiosity in different kinds of people and encouraging openness to a variety of experiences. On Friday morning, there’s a subtle shift from cool to cuddly when the Moon slips into imaginative Pisces, giving sweet permission for romance to trump reality.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Supporting friends in need or working for a worthy cause may not sound sexy, but builds a network of trust this week that pays big dividends later on. Privacy is a priority for most of the weekend and you might feel the need to seek out some peace and quiet. You’re likely to come out of your shell on Sunday when the Moon fires into your dynamic sign to get your adrenaline pumping. You’re in a risk-taking mood as restless feelings make you ready for romantic action.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

Expect plenty of positive attention with Wednesday’s innovative Aquarius Full Moon shining in your very public 10th House. Putting the interests of others before your own is key to making a strong impression throughout the week. The more open-minded and generous you are now, the more likely you’ll earn the affection that you desire. What might look like sacrificial behavior on the surface is the best way to attract a loving partner.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

Visions of faraway places add spice to your relationship life now. An incredibly insightful Aquarius Full Moon lands in your 9th House of Higher Mind and Travel on Wednesday, stretching your social horizons. Expansive Jupiter in your sign supports this lunar event, encouraging your clever ideas and enhancing your gift of gab. Still, less words and more emotion is a better strategy for achieving intimacy if you are hoping to connect romantically over the weekend.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

You could reach a turning point in relationships with this week’s Aquarius Full Moon lighting up your 8th House of Intimacy. This airy lunation blows in fresh breezes of objectivity, enabling you to see your situation more clearly. If you have a partner, it may be time to reassess your expectations. If you’re single, attracting an unconventional individual is possible. Either way, opening your mind is essential for the chemistry to work.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

This could be a breakthrough week in romantic matters thanks to Wednesday’s quirky Aquarius Full Moon brightening your 7th House of Partnerships. Unexpected events or surprising interactions could challenge your ideas about who and what you need to make you happy. Exploring unfamiliar territory and allowing someone else to lead the way require trust and a flexible attitude. It may feel unnatural at first, but relinquishing control now will breathe more excitement into your relationships.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

The psychic Pisces Moon warms your 7th House of Partners this weekend with compassionate companionship. Fantasy and romance flourish as you disconnect from your routine tasks and allow your imagination guide your actions. A creative individual helps you to imagine a magical world where the barriers to closeness melt away. Let go of petty details so you don’t miss out on this sweetly satisfying scenario.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Amorous feelings are on the rise with Wednesday’s innovative Aquarius Full Moon falling in your 5th House of Romance. Yet this emotional event can push you to extremes with moments of unbridled confidence interspersed with significant self-doubt. Break through your old patterns by taking some chances when expressing yourself. It’s healthier to follow your own creative impulses now than to be overly concerned about how others might react.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

Restlessness is likely with Wednesday’s high-frequency Aquarius Full Moon rattling your 4th House of Roots. Shaking things up on the home front is risky but is better than silently stewing with resentment. There’s a delightful shift on Friday as the Moon enters surreal Pisces and your 5th House of Romance to end your week on a magical note. Imagination opens your heart, making you a more captivating companion.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

The quirky Aquarius Full Moon kicks up your interest in unusual people and experiences on Wednesday. This high-energy lunar event lands in your communicative 3rd House, making it easy to strike up conversations in the course of your daily activities. You may slip into a more sensitive mood this weekend, perhaps even preferring to spend time alone or with one special individual who you don’t have to impress. Whatever you do, take time to listen to your dreams.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Try a little tenderness this weekend with the Moon floating into inspiring Pisces on Friday. This boundary-melting transit occurs in your communicative 3rd House, which may turn a simple little chat into a magical moment. Instead of taking life so literally, let your imagination loose and you could be rewarded with a romance surprise. Creative companions are much more desirable than critical ones now. Cast a positive light wherever you go and you never know who might notice.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Staying cool and calm isn’t easy this week with a super energized Full Moon occupying your sign on Wednesday. If you’re not happy with your relationship life now, you are ready to make an impulsive move. It’s fine to take some risks as long as you’re sensitive enough to back off if you’re heading in a dangerous direction. Getting noticed comes easily now, but don’t act out simply for shock value since that kind of attention is not likely to last very long. Consider your audience before you speak from your heart.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

The Moon moseys into your sweet sign on Friday to melt boundaries and dissolve barriers this weekend. If you’re stuck in a tough place with a partner, it’s time to speak truthfully, but with the kindness it takes to be real without becoming hurtful. Playing dress up and allowing your imagination to lead the way makes this a memorable time. Let yourself have fun exploring a different look and attitude, which can reignite your relationship life in a delightful way.

Daily Horoscopes for Thursday, July 26

Our passions deepen when we hold on to a feeling instead of releasing it. The fixed Scorpio Moon brings self-assurance if we consciously focus the intensity of our emotions; however, too much inflexibility invites frustration. Magnetic Venus aligns with electric Uranus, tempting us with sudden attractions. Meanwhile, we can inadvertently overpower others as an awkward Mercury-Pluto quincunx makes it difficult to estimate the impact of our words.

Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

Waiting for what happens next requires more effort than just dealing with a current situation, yet an immediate solution seems elusive. You wish that you could relax your jangled nerves today, but it feels as if you have a significant part to play in a power struggle and haven’t been given a script to follow. Being flexible is crucial; stay loose and you will be ready to engage in the drama as it happens.

Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

You might wish that you could get back to a familiar routine today, but something isn’t quite right. No matter how many ways you analyze the facts, you still don’t seem to be able to put your finger on the source of the problem. Unfortunately, you can’t just banish the lingering discontentment by avoiding the subject. Thankfully, talking with your friends in a cool and calm manner helps to ease your emotional discomfort and puts you in a positive frame of mind.

Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

You think that you know what you should do today, especially if you’ve given it a lot of thought before you made up your mind. Unfortunately, reality isn’t necessarily as cooperative as you wish. It might seem as if the universe is resisting your decisions now for no apparent reason. Don’t be overly concerned if there’s a gap between your desires and your current circumstances. Keep your eye on the destination; although it may take a few days, the conflict will resolve on its own.

Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

You might feel as if you have stewed in your own juices long enough. You’re ready to act on what you know today, even if you cannot see where your current decision will ultimately lead. It may be challenging to accept the instability at work, but your needs must also be taken into consideration when making choices now. Don’t reject what doesn’t fit in; success is more attainable when your professional aspirations are in harmony with your personal goals.

Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

You might feel overwhelmed by the feelings that tug on your heartstrings today. Unfortunately, you let yourself get hooked by the dramas of life too easily. Luckily, your inner strength can save you now. Even if you believe you’re exempt from playing by the same rules as everyone else, at least remember that open and honest communication is still the most important thing.

Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Coming to terms with your powerful desires may require that you do a few mental gymnastics today. However, it’s not as simple as you wish because clever Mercury is being sideswiped by mysterious Pluto. One minute you have everything figured out and then just a few minutes later, you’re not so sure. For now, it’s wise to take yourself a little less seriously. Having a healthy sense of humor is like using a lubricating oil that makes everything move along with less friction.

Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Whatever positive intentions you have now, they might not be sufficient to carry you through the day. Other people seem to be testing your composure to see if you can maintain your cool and still act graciously, even if you’re secretly ready to explode. Fortunately, you won’t lose your temper if you remember to release pressure gradually by expressing your feelings before they build to a critical level. Take a deep breath before you speak.

Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You might be so focused on the outcome of a current work project that you become distracted from what’s happening in the present moment. The reflective Moon in your sign increases your connection to your subconscious mind, making it even more crucial to maintain a handle on what is real now. Honor the creativity that comes from your imagination while staying aware of what matters most.

Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

You could work yourself into a state of high anxiety today as you strive to manage the complexities of your life. Thankfully, circumstances aren’t as overwhelming as they seem, yet your annoyance is real, nonetheless. Previous obligations may prevent you from being as socially active as you wish. Luckily, there’s no need to worry so much; many of the situations that are up in the air will sort themselves out within the next week.

Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Your life is full of contradictions today because you must put out fires by responding to multiple situations. Paradoxically, you don’t seem to be overly concerned about what’s happening. It’s not that you don’t care; it’s just that you have so much on your plate now that it’s nearly impossible to get overly involved in any single issue. Thankfully, this detachment can work to your advantage by enabling you to stay calm while handling the demands of the day.

Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

A disagreement that springs up over differing points of view could be blown out of proportion today. Although there may be a very real issue behind the current dispute, it’s also possible that you’re battling with your own imagination. Anger can rear its ugly head, stemming from something entirely unrelated, such as your inability to reach your stated goals. Assuming full responsibility for your own success or failure minimizes the possibility of taking your frustration out on the wrong person.

Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You may feel agitated about something at work today, but you don’t have an obvious target for your nervous energy. Powerful emotions that are stirring in your subconscious motivate you to find courage you didn’t know you had. Listen carefully to what you are being told now, even if the message isn’t what you want to hear. Instead of acting on your first impulse, wait for the deeper lessons to emerge before making your move.
