Happy birthday for Sunday, Aug 11, 2019: This year, you might seem more sensible and conservative than you are or have been. From this point of view, life looks quite different. If single, you could choose to be with someone who suits you well this year but probably won’t for the long term. Do not commit unless you are sure. If attached, the two of you might find that you need to readapt to each other in certain ways. Both of you have changed. This process could charge your relationship with excitement. Capricorn always gives sound advice. Do not feel as if you must listen to it.

This Week: You easily move through responsibilities to make time for some fun midweek.

Taurus -

(Apr 20 - May 20)

This Week: You have developed an ability to shake people and help them see the big picture. Be careful. Someone could become resentful of this ability.

**** Be willing to let go of your need for control, and you could be delighted by what comes down the path. Associates, loved ones and friends might surprise you but are accommodating. Tonight: A potential loved one or your sweetie has decided to indulge you.

This Week: A partner could become demanding, especially around finances. Midweek, communication sizzles. Someone presents a new perspective on an important issue in your life.

Cancer -

**** Your emotional frequency could be high and draws in a special person if you are single and a loved one if you are attached. A friend could do what you least expected! Go along with the moment. Tonight: Be responsive to a request.

This Week: Defer to others and you will be much happier with what goes on. Make time for a private and/or important meeting later in the week.

Leo -

(July 23 - Aug 22)

*** Adapt your plans in order to have more free time at home. You could be tired from the weekend, or you just want or crave a lazy day. You do not need to overthink this decision — just do it. Your smile late in the day says it all. Tonight: Keep it low-key.

This Week: You get a lot done, but you cannot nix a certain amount of socializing after Tuesday. Be open to networking.

Virgo -

(Aug 23 - Sept 22)

***** News from a distance may charge your day with excitement. Many of you will choose to spend some extra time with a child or loved one. He or she might be full of flack, but enjoy it. Tonight: A long-overdue discussion.

This Week: You give answers when others have none. Apply them to a difficult or demanding situation.

Libra -

(Sept 23 - Oct 22)

*** Tension might be a little too high for your taste, but know you can deal with it. A family member really wants you to spend some time at home with him or her. Do not say no. Tonight: Make it cozy.

This Week: Life gets better and better. Roll with the punches. Let your social life take greater priority.

Scorpio -

(Oct 23 - Nov 21)

***** You might want to say what is on your mind. If you address this directly, you could see the other party flip. Opt to initiate this chat at another time or choose to be more diplomatic. Tonight: Get into a movie.

This Week: You can be brutally honest, especially at the beginning of the week. Why not try to be more open and less brutal. The results will be better.

Sagittarius -

(Nov 22 - Dec 21)

**** You could want to change directions, though you feel somehow committed. Ask yourself if you can break this scenario or not. It might be better to tolerate the matter for a while. Finances are likely to change in the near future. Tonight: Fun does not need to cost.

This Week: Curb spending, keep the budget, and pay bills. Then relax for the remainder of the week!
