CRYPTOQUIP/CROSSWORD/HOROSCOPE
HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Sunday, August 06, 2017:
This year you are very aware of others’ roles in your life. Those around you find you to be magnetic but not always approachable. You can be very warm and open at times, yet remote and closed down at other times. If you are single, these mood swings could affect a budding relationship. Find someone who accepts you as you are. If you are attached, the two of you could have a very exciting year. Learn to respect your different values and perspectives, and you’ll both be a lot happier. AQUARIUS values you as a friend.
A baby born today has a Sun in Leo and a Moon in Capricorn if born before 8:16 a.m. (ET). Afterward, the Moon will be in Aquarius.

This Week: A minor disagreement could become a lot more serious if you aren’t careful.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)
You feel energetic. The real issue is how you express this high energy. You might pick a fight, or perhaps you’ll opt to go to the gym. Be careful, as you could become sarcastic as well. Do yourself and others a favor, and think before you speak. Tonight: Let off some steam.
This Week: Take what a friend says with a grain of salt.

This Week: Consider investing your funds differently.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)
