YOUR STARS

(TUESDAY, 2 AUGUST 2016)

ARIES (March 21-April 20) – You will succeed in carrying out a resolution and the results will be most beneficial. This may be a good time to make some long-term decisions regarding your love life. Try to concentrate on what really is and not on the things that you think are. TAURUS (April 21-May 20) – If you do what has to be done as it arises, it will not seem so difficult to tackle as if you let it accumulate. Beware; an expenditure you have to some extent allowed will prove to have been much higher than you had anticipated. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) – To cooperate amicably with others do not expect more from them than you are giving on your part. What at first seem to have none or too little possibilities will on further perusal be more viable. With patience, try to wait a little longer for what you had been expecting and you will be greatly rewarded. CANCER (June 21-July 20) – There is no harm in hoping for the best, but you should not hope the best will happen if you do nothing towards it. What you have to do today may be somewhat unclear; do not hesitate to ask for and take advice from your superiors. LEO (July 21-Aug. 20) – Any good opportunity quickly disappears; waste no time availing yourself of them. Memories of an old relationship may still be around but there is no sense in reminiscing what has been permanently laid to rest. Try to get a move on with a new one; take note of lessons learned from the previous one. VIRGO (Aug 21-Sept. 22) – Not all will be in your favor; instead of complaining you would do better to make the best of it. Recall your experiences from the past and if applicable, use them in your present situation. Make an effort to make up for lost time and then do your best to stay ahead. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) – You can look forward to a very busy day but you will be compensated with good results. If you feel that you have been given enough time but were unable to deliver, you can now make up for lost time. Avoid finding excuses for being unable to meet your deadline; it will only make matters worse. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 22) – Go out of your way to straighten out any family disagreements and at the earliest possible time. Try to look at things dispassionately when dealing with a controversial matter particularly if your family is involved. You will discover a contradiction; fortunately before any harm is done. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 20) – Some unfinished business you have left behind must now be completed. Otherwise, it will interfere with your future plans. Check your commitments very carefully and avoid saying “yes’ easily to last minute invitations. CAPRICORN (Dec. 21-Jan. 19) – Some of your initial doubts will easily be overcome but do beware of becoming over-confident. Try to avoid postponing things; there may not be enough time later. Ensure your ideas are up to date; what applied yesterday may well not apply tomorrow. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) – It will do you well to try to exhibit a little more patience and generosity when dealing with your family. A rather tense atmosphere may prevail and you must do your best to keep calm and composed. Being audacious is in order but seek to avoid being too impulsive. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) – A partner who knows how to move around with your daily budget could help you attain financial stability. When dealing with a delicate matter, make sure you do not act precipitately and avoid trying to do too much all at once; gradually is a better policy just now.
