HOROSCOPES: AUGUST 26, 2020

MOON ALERT: There are no restrictions to shopping or important decisions. The moon is in Sagittarius.

IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY:

Actress, singer, TV host Keke Palmer (1993) shares your birthday. You are trustworthy, disciplined and generous. Friends and family matter to you. This year will be more relaxed for you. Do your best to cooperate because your interactions with others will be important. Always look for ways to be kind and helpful. If you are open when engaging with others, your business and personal relationships will benefit you.

Aries (March 21-April 19):

Today you want to do something different so that you can get away from all this. You want to be the hero in a swashbuckling movie with swords, sales and big sleeves. Don’t worry. You are the hero of your own movie! You are the hero of your own movie every day.

Taurus (April 20-May 20):

As the financial wizard of the zodiac, it might behoove you to stay abreast of bank accounts and matters related to shared property, inheritances and insurance issues. Know what’s going on. Just check in to make sure everything is as it should be.

Gemini (May 21-June 20):

The moon is directly opposite your sign, which means you have to go more than halfway when dealing with others. This requires friendly cooperation and accommodation, which is not really a big deal, is it? Smile and pretend you’re listening with interest. Be agreeable.

Cancer (June 21-July 22):

Very likely, you will have to perform a service for someone or do something to assist someone or do work that is on behalf of someone else. Well, we all have days like this. Do the best you can because it never hurts to shine in the world, does it?

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22):

The moon is in your fellow fire sign, which is a good thing! It makes you feel adventurous, interested in the arts and keen to explore sports or playful activities with children. Social outings will appeal as well as any chance to be theatrically dramatic.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22):

Life is been a bit hectic because the sun and Mercury are in your sign putting you out there and making you busy socializing with others and talking to everyone. This is why today you will welcome any chance to cocoon at home and catch your breath. (You can’t always be all things to all people.)

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22):

Today you can trust your hunches. (And you will.) However, you will also want to get into nitty-gritty, deep conversations with others about something that really matters. You don’t want trivial polite chitchat. Seek profundity at best, juicy gossip at worst.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21):

You have money on your mind today. (Who doesn’t?) By nature, you are very resourceful because you are big at doing anything with a “re” in front of it. Resanding, refinishing, refurbishing, reupholstering, reworking, redesigning, renovating and restoring. Find the money.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19):

Today the moon is in your sign, which means your life will improve! (A little bonus.) However, when the moon is in your sign, which happens for two days every month, it also heightens your emotions and makes things a bit willy-nilly.

You will prefer privacy today. Seek out a pleasant space so that you can enjoy some peace and quiet. Plan ahead and take good food and drink. Maybe a book or a crossword puzzle? The busy mind finds no rest.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18):

A heartto-heart conversation with a friend or a member of a group will be meaningful today. (This person might be a coworker.) Whatever the case, share your hopes and dreams for the future with this person to hear what they have to say, because their feedback might be helpful.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20):

Whether you are aware of it or not, you are high visibility today because for some reason, people seem to be talking about personal details about your private life. Like, what’s with that? Be aware of this. (“Whaat?”)
