Horoscopes: Monday, Aug. 18, 2025

Daily Horoscopes.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Like most people, you have a type, and it keeps showing up in various forms. New friends resemble old ones. It’s time to change it up. Social experimentation is favored, and you’ll be delighted by surprisingly beneficial outcomes.        

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You’re skilled at gathering insights and using them to grow. Draw inspiration from everywhere: expert advice, beginner questions and even outsider comments. Sometimes the freshest perspective comes from those who know the least but see the most. You know how to listen.       

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You’re alert and open, which leads to meaningful connections. A relationship is developing — likely one that feels exciting, mentally engaging and possibly flirtatious or inspiring. The chemistry builds through banter, shared curiosity and the sense that anything could happen.       

CANCER (June 22-July 22). You’ve stopped idealizing crumbs. Where you once mistook a late text or fleeting gesture for meaning, you now see it clearly — a moment, not a connection. You deserve more, and you know it now.       

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Every action has ripple effects. What feels good now might cause problems later, and what’s hard now might lead to something great. You’re thinking long term and being strategic, especially when the immediate payoff doesn’t tell the whole story.       

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You are deep, complex, curious and alive. Why not give yourself as many good options as possible? You want to choose love that makes you feel free, not loyalty that is rooted in guilt. You want agency.       

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You don’t need applause to know you’re doing it right — but it feels good when it comes. You’re steady in your own light, magnetic in your truth. Approval may follow, but your power comes from within.       

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You’ll delve into complex projects that take time and planning and simple projects, too, that you can jump into and execute on the fly. You’ll be seen as a leader, which will pay off for you further down the line.       

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Today might feel like a lot. But you’re made for “a lot.” You’ve navigated major transitions before, and today you’re showing up again. You’re more than capable. You’re grace under fire.       

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Whether today brings an uphill climb or a slippery slope, you’re ready to adjust your steps to keep your balance. You’ve got that energy that just knows when to push and when to coast. No matter the terrain, your instinct drives onward.       

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). There are those who are wired to test boundaries — and they’ll keep pushing until they hit resistance. Hold your ground. You’re kind, perceptive and generous, but you know where the line is. Let them feel it. Compassionate, yes. Pushover, no.        

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Sometimes you wonder if you’re claiming confidence from nowhere, unreasonable in your aims. But no. Your ideas are offbeat, but they are not out of the realm of possibility. This thing you think you can do? You can.      

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Aug. 18). Creative highs get established and then topped. So you’ll set new norms for the energy, excitement and novelty in your world. More highlights: You’ll do good work that will involve many. You’ll be appreciated and publicized. Relationships will deepen, and somehow also seem light and fun. Financial wins come through persistence and well-timed boldness. Gemini and Cancer adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 19, 3, 32, 34 and 17.
