HOROSCOPES BY HOLIDAY
TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Aug. 26): In the past you’ve felt you were doing what was necessary for survival, but this year is all about thriving. You’ll live in lifted emotion and higher thought. With the love and support of your inner circle, stimulating colleagues and a tranquil domestic environment, you can take chances and fly. Cancer and Gemini adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 4, 18, 22, 29 and 50.
ARIES (March 21-April 19): Most changes don’t happen overnight, and the larger ones can take especially long to unfold. When the change takes hold, it was years in the making.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You are committing daily acts of self-sabotage. However minor the destructive habit may be, the numbers will work against you over time. Cut it out now.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21): A bitter person looks at the bad situation and says, “It always happens like this.” A wise person decides to stop getting into the situations that happen “like this.”
CANCER (June 22-July 22): Chaos is inherently dangerous. The thrill is addictive. Break your addiction by accepting the part of yourself that’s hiding behind this diversion.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): When people are brave enough to share their weird, uncensored thoughts with you, it’s a major compliment. They trust you not to judge. They value your insight.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You’ll be reminded how you and others are united in a common purpose. The energetic bond that holds you together may be invisible, but it’s real.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Let the others know your process. Tell them how you got to this point. Let them know what you gained and what it cost you. Your journey will help others.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Even though you can be as constant as the tide, it’s important that you exercise your right to be unpredictable, as that’s exciting for all.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): As it is in the fairytales, your wishes are magic seeds. Unlike the fairytales, they are not limited to three. So don’t worry about wishing the right wish.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): No matter what you choose, there are some people your choice will displease. As long as you do right by your own code, good will come of it.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You’ve been so focused on taking care of others that you’ve neglected your main responsibility in life — which is, of course, taking care of yourself.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Struggling for your next dollar is not your favorite way to spend the hours. On the other hand, you love to spend time on a cause that helps others.
