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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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 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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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.

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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
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 Cosmic Calendar for August 7

Inspirations are flying fast due to Pallas and Jupiter in league via a supportive, 60-degree tie (2:22AM PDT). A major switch occurs at 6:44AM PDT when Venus leaves Gemini — where it has been since April 3 — for nurturing Cancer. This can reinforce many of the interests of the fourth sign of the zodiac — cooking, baking, gardening, sprucing up your residence, reminiscing about the past, and connecting with relatives.  The Moon in Aries forms its monthly opposition to Saturn in Libra (1:05PM PDT) — possibly creating temporary delays or obstacles to progress regarding your agenda on the work-front. This Moon-Saturn polarity also starts a long void lunar cycle that lasts until 12:29AM PDT tomorrow. During the void lunar twilight zone, Mercury makes an abrasive, 45-degree link with Ceres (6:14PM PDT). Strive to keep overall productivity going strongly in your main fields of expertise.  Meanwhile, the main cosmic event is Mercury finally making a station at 2 degrees of Leo (10:40PM PDT) and beginning to shift into direct motion. All Mercury themes — communications, information exchange, classes and primary education, words and language, learning programs, business and trade, health and medicine, transportation and travel plans, magic tricks, sleight-of-hand and theft — are emphasized now and over the next 24 to 48 hours. [Mercury remains in forward motion until November 6, 2012.]
