Horoscope

Today’s birthday This year your spontaneous side emerges and throws you into some fun situations. At other times, you are overly cautious and worried. You will learn to juggle these diverse emotions, and you’ll become less dependent on others as a result. If you are single, you could meet someone very different, perhaps while traveling. You will learn a lot about different cultures and attitudes from this person. If you are attached, the two of you fulfill a long-discussed goal. Sometimes you need to give each other space, as too much togetherness will cause you to fight. Virgo’s fussiness annoys you.

Aries (March 21-April 19) 6666 Go along with spontaneity, but don’t be surprised if you quickly lose interest in what you are doing.

Taurus 66666 You could be in a situation that might cause a problem or two if you don’t handle it properly. Tap into your ingenuity to come up with the right solution. A friend is likely to disagree with your plan or idea, but go for it anyway. Tonight: Live in the moment.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) 6666 You could be a little down in the morning, but by the afternoon you’ll feel like a different person. Some of you might get an earful from a loved one. This person wouldn’t be so upset if he or she didn’t care. Tonight: As you like it.

Libra 666 Use the morning to join a friend. Why not opt to head to brunch together? Afterward, you might need some personal time. Don’t hesitate to take a nap, if need be. You will need to keep your energy high for the coming holidays. Tonight: Disappear. Mystery suits you.
