Daily Horoscopes

ARIES (March 21-April 19). The law of reciprocity, which is a spiritual tenet, a religious cornerstone and an inescapable physical reality, will be very immediately represented in your life. You’ll be delighted at what zings back to you today.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You know intense people with passions and tempers. Consider your part in the drama they always seem to stir up. Might your steadiness and stability allow them to fly off the handle? If so, is it acceptable to you?

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Different actions net different results. So much is going well, it would be a gamble to change what you’re doing and how you’re doing it or alter your course even a small amount. If you’re going to take the risk, make it a calculated one.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Communicating with your favorite people will be part of the fun. Quick responses convey affection. You’re a genius at steering interactions to a sunny, easy place. You sense where pressure points are and navigate away from them.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). When a thing is going well, you leave it alone. It’s just now better to be grateful for what comes than push for more. A hotheaded person you know may act rashly today.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). It is said that the blessings of life are deeper than what can be appreciated with the senses. Even so, sensory input seems to take you there. Because you’re so open, you’ll follow your perceptions to spiritual and emotional places.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Empathy is a strength, and yet you never believe you have enough of it. You constantly strive for a better understanding of the other person’s perspective, sometimes out of kindness, other times out of strategy.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). The odd ideas will be the most fun to execute. Perhaps the oddest one is to arrange to do nothing for a stretch of time. It’s surprising what happens when you give yourself space and the freedom to be your own creature.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Very accomplished people will also be quite humble, partly because their focus on the work is more fulfilling than ego gratification, and because the truly secure have less need of extra attention.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You’ll be fascinated by mystery, drama and obscure motivations. It’s like you’re doing a jigsaw puzzle. You have to get a good amount of it clicked in before you’ll know the picture that’s coming together.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You’ll notice where the voids are. As much as you’d like to fill in the blanks and supply what’s needed, don’t rush to do so. First, seek more listening and understanding.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). If an activity doesn’t bring you challenge, money or joy, then what does it bring you? The answer will teach you something about yourself and begin an internal shift. You’ll close some doors and open others.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Aug. 8). With your sparkling intelligence as a given, you eschew overthinking and rely on your good karma and excellent intuition to make quick and lucky moves. A financial spike allows you to experience new places and different circles. Other highlights: aesthetic upgrades, a rare professional opportunity and family pride. Gemini and Scorpio adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 10, 3, 33, 48 and 17.
