HOROSCOPE

JACQUELINE BIGAR

Note: Bigar’s Stars is based on the degree of your sun at birth. The sign name is simply a label astrologers put on a set of degrees for convenience. For best results, readers should refer to the dates following each sign. A baby born today has a Sun in Virgo and a Moon in Cancer if born before 4:11 a.m. (EST). Afterward, the Moon will be in Leo.

Monday, Aug. 29, 2016 Aries (March 21-April 19)

Your excellent communication pays off. You could be quite touched by an associate’s or loved one’s goodwill, but you might choose to keep this fact to yourself. Tonight: Consider going on a getaway for a day or two soon.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

You will have a hard time being focused after this past weekend, so much so that you could already be thinking about next weekend. Tonight: Happy where you are.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

You could be quite expressive; however, you also might be tired of hearing the same old story from a partner. This person has been difficult and touchy as of late, but keep in mind that this attitude likely has nothing to do with you. Tonight: Remain sure of yourself.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

You are on top of your game, but you also might be concerned about your financial stability. Be aware that your need to stabilize a situation could encourage you to accept the status quo a bit too easily. Tonight: Break the mold.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

You’ll be more verbal than usual. Try to have a meaningful discussion with a loved one. You could start out a bit fussy or critical, but you’ll change your tune as the day goes on. Tonight: Be mindful.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Saying less might not work in a tense situation involving your personal life. Verbalize and/or demonstrate your caring in a meaningful way. Tonight: Your treat.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Round up a friend or two, and express your thoughts and desires. Don’t hesitate to ask for more of what you want, although an immediate response might not be forthcoming. Tonight: Surround yourself with people.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

You’ll get a lot of attention, which could make you uncomfortable. You might feel as if you can’t get past a problem in a discussion. Tonight: Something hush-hush is going on.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Despite the fact that the Moon could fire you up, you might choose to remain aloof. If you look around, you’ll see that caring surrounds you. Tonight: Don’t throw a tantrum.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Be more direct with a partner or loved one if you want to stoke the flames of goodwill, and in some cases, perhaps more than that. One-on-one relating is your strong suit right now. Tonight: Out with a favorite person.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

You might have thought that today would be like any other Monday, but your popularity seems to be soaring right now. You will be confronted by needing to juggle your schedule with what has happened. Tonight: Catch up on news.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

You might have to pick up the slack. As a result, your highly organized day could fall apart quickly. Your sense of humor will keep you from getting too upset. Tonight: Don’t forget to exercise; it will relieve some stress.
