HOROSCOPES
Aries (March 21-April 19). People will find out who you are through your actions, your stories or because you share your preferences. Taurus (April 20-May 20). You’re gutsy. You forget that sometimes. Or rather, you take it for granted, believing that everyone else is gutsy, too. Not true! You’re lucky when you recognize the quality and make it count today. Gemini (May 21-June 21). Before a mutually satisfying deal can be struck, the others will want to understand your story.
Cancer (June 22-July 22). Self-sufficiency is among your many attractive qualities. You won’t ask your friends to help you unless you truly can’t do on your own. In that case, a Taurus is your ideal support.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22). Like the cat your sign is named for, you are choosy about who you like, and then obsessively loyal to your chosen ones.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). People have their own agendas, but they might adopt yours if it is appealing enough. People are usually willing to forgo their plan when there’s something more interesting, attainable, lucrative, fun, urgent or important to do.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). If you stop saying yes so often, people will take notice.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You love to know what’s really going on in people’s lives, but mostly they show you what their lives look like instead of what they feel like.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22Dec. 21). Your compassion is an enormous strength.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Aim for the middle of the road. You’ll hit the perfect note: surprising, but not obvious; spontaneous, but not impulsive; romantic, but nobody’s fool. Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). If “play” is an art form, you’re a fine artist indeed today. Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20). In friendship, you’ll deal with the other person’s flaws or be kind enough to look the other way. Today’s Birthday (Aug. 19). “We are all lions,” said the poet Rumi, “but lions on a banner: because of the wind they are rushing onward from moment to moment.” This solar return, you’ll seize your moment, marching forward for your cause, a purpose that brings out your most regal characteristics. Cancer and Capricorn adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 5, 30, 2, 21 and 16.
