Your Horoscope for Saturday, August 12

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

You have an abundant amount of energy. Visit with loved ones, and make time for conversations that day-to-day life does not permit. TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

You might feel as if there is a lot you can’t say. You could be correct in holding back. A certain amount of tumultuousness surrounds you. Know that this confusion could cause a misunderstanding. GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

Let others in on your thinking and plans. You will be happiest with friends or off fulfilling a long-term desire. Your ability to create more romance and/or amusement in your life emerges.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) You could be more willing to take a risk, even if you are not totally sure you want to head down that path. Observe a flashing yellow light when it comes to your spending.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Take an overview of a situation, and detach from an immediate desire to get involved. Look at the long-term ramifications of being impulsive. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

One-on-one relating elicits a strong reaction and could be a problem. You might be prone to becoming critical and fussy. Try not to allow a misunderstanding to get even bigger. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You will want to listen to what others are sharing. Even if you disagree, you still need to open your ears. Be aware of others’ views and judgments.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Touch base with friends and loved ones if you decide to make plans. An unusual situation could develop into a misunderstanding. Be sensitive to a friend’s needs. Do a better job of listening. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

You might feel that it is important to remain sensitive to others. A loved one or a higher-up could be fragile and not even realize it. A misunderstanding is likely to develop from out of nowhere.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Don’t allow a loved one’s mood to edge you into a reaction. You know when enough is enough, though this person might not. Stay close to home. News from a distance could be a problem, as a misunderstanding seems to be entrenched in its message.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Your words could start a commotion if you are not careful. You might not expect such a reaction, as you are simply being yourself. A loved one is likely to take a stand. Try to be as clear as possible.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You might want to defer any social planning to someone else for now. You could sense that you are walking right into a disagreement with a friend or loved one. How you handle yourself will determine the tone of the next few days, if not weeks.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY (Aug. 12) This year you have an opportunity to express your uniqueness. Many different people and situations could appear from out of the blue. You have a warm way of expressing yourself that attracts many people.
