Horoscopes: Tuesday, Aug. 6, 2024

ARIES (March 21-April 19). This day is a dance. Parts go off as though intricately choreographed, and other parts are passionately unbridled. Your sense of what’s required is intuitive, and your timing is superb.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You may not think of last year as strength training, but you’ll notice you’re stronger, solid in your footing and moving with confidence. This progression transforms past struggles into a foundation for greater success.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You appreciate and are inspired by the interesting ways people around you have changed through their commitments. You’ll double down on one of your goals as you see how this will keep you growing as a person.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Complaints are an outlet for those who feel powerless to impact a situation. That’s not you. You know you’re bigger than the problem, which is why you skip the complaining and go straight to action.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You are building yourself better than ever. Sometimes, it means disassembling your own internal structures, debunking certain stories you’ve told yourself or giving them a different spin. The remodel celebrates the best in you.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). The challenges you faced and overcame have built resilience and skill. What once seemed daunting is now easily achievable because of all you did to boost your confidence and competence. You’re ready to scale up once more.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You’ll solve five problems before lunchtime. Your productivity is owed to the efficiency of excellent listening and following directions well. A step-by-step guide will lead you exactly where you want to go.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You wouldn’t normally point out the nice things you do for others, but there are those who could use a wake-up call on that matter because they are starting to take you for granted. Removing yourself from a situation so they will miss you will also do the trick.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). People want to work with you, which is a compliment and testament to your talent and cooperative style. Let any win you get along these lines -- a choice assignment, recognition, better compensation -- grow your confidence. Opportunities are coming.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Since all humans will make mistakes, there is no point in trying to overcome this inevitability. There’s also no point in fearing it. The worthy aim here is in developing the resilience to recover quickly and keep going.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). A good life is not the same as a comfortable life. Those who believe happiness and comfort should be constant are often the hardest to satisfy. Favor falls on those who don’t fret over minor discomforts. Living right is better than living easy.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You’ll work fast so you can love slow. People need your attention. Make time to sit together, listen and be present with your loved ones. Let them know they matter, not through words alone but through the gift of your undivided time.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Aug. 6). Now more than any other year, you draw boundaries that allow you to work on what makes you happy. You’ll either do the work you can smile through, or you’ll decline. More highlights: You’ll love working on new problems because in working for solutions, you’ll come up with incredible experience, excellent money and the esteem of your friends, colleagues and partners. Cancer and Virgo adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 12, 8, 4, 40 and 15.
