Aries ( March 21- April 19): Your mind may be on an upcoming romantic encounter, so you may overlook something important. Keep an eagle eye on finances and make sure all bills are paid on time. This is not a good time to invest.

Taurus ( April 20- May 20): Live a little. Enjoying the good things in life could be in the cards, but you might ruffle some feathers if you insist on having things your own way. Take your time when driving.

Gemini ( May 21- June 20): If you listen, you may hear just what you need to hear. Grab hold of vivid ideas or concepts that could help you advance your career or education. Join a group that has an interestin­g philosophy or outlook.

Cancer ( June 21- July 22): Capture the heart of a loved one by being Johnny- on- the- spot when small tasks need attention. Show your affection by making a gourmet meal, taking out the trash, or just bringing in the groceries.

Leo ( July 23- Aug. 22): Find some fun when work is done. The weekend may offer an opportunit­y to escape from a workload or drudgery. Leave business and career pressures behind and concentrat­e on family outings or hobbies.

Virgo ( Aug. 23- Sept. 22): Don’t burn your bridges. Remain content with what you have and who you’re with, although you may think that you need more. You could be opposed by a confidant over your unrealisti­c goals.

Scorpio ( Oct. 23- Nov. 21): Busy hands make light work. Do a Tom Sawyer and tempt others to help you by making even onerous tasks appear inviting. Find ingenious ways to make your money work for you.

Sagittariu­s ( Nov. 22- Dec. 21): You may need a time out. Take criticisms in stride. It might be tempting to gamble, but it’s best to simply settle back right now and ignore the minor temptation­s that swirl around you.

Capricorn ( Dec. 22- Jan. 19): Be a realist. Understand that other people aren’t really that much better off. It could be that greed and envy are the two biggest causes of your discontent. Once you have what you need, be happy with it.

Aquarius ( Jan. 20- Feb. 18): Err on the side of caution. Even though it’s an ideal day to take action on a creative project, you might be wise to ask permission first. Other people close to you will be pleased if you seek their opinions or input.

Pisces ( Feb. 19- March 20): Beware of passing whims. Use common sense and good judgment before you’re swept up in a fleeting enthusiasm. Someone with your best interests at heart will prevent you from spending your money foolishly. If August 8 is your birthday:

The month ahead promises to unwind smoothly with no major obstacles or setbacks. Make the most of your business skills and put career or business plans in motion during September and early October, while you have your hand firmly on the rudder. December is a great time for romance, vacations and creative inspiratio­n, but not so good for financial and business affairs. Wait until January to make major changes or decisions that could impact your career or finances, as your passion for success and good judgment will be at a peak.
