Horoscope

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Friday, Aug. 7, 2009: This year, much happens quite quickly. You often find that important events pull in a key person, but not necessarily the same person. If single, you will meet someone who might have a profound impact on you. If attached, you will learn to defer, or at least listen more often to the other side presented by your significant other. Pisces can make you uncomfortable, as they seem to just know you.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) ••• Know when to pull back and say little. An adjustment will become necessary. Your imagination fills in the gaps that surround a relationship.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) ••••• Zero in on what you want. If you would like to distance yourself and go off and do what feels right, do. If you can, call it an early day. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) •••• Confusion surrounds your decisions. Listen to news that comes through a friend. This person feels as if he or she offers you a lot. Does this person really, when you don’t buy into his or her rhetoric?

CANCER (June 21-July 22) ••••• Reach out for others. Investigate and understand what someone is really seeing. Your imagination triggers when left to its own devices.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) ••• Encourage another’s imagination and let flights of fancy mark interactions. You might be delighted with another’s solution. You don’t need to own everything as yours.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) ••••• You have traveled to an extreme in some way, and now have an opportunity to pull in. Of course, whether you do or don’t is ultimately your call.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) •••• You might want to revamp your thinking about certain issues. How you deal with someone and the issues that come forward emerge quite suddenly.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ••••• You might want to do something very different in the next few days. If you wish, you can change plans, especially if they don’t seem open enough or sufficiently creative.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) •••• Anchor in on a primary issue that easily could open a door and impact you across the board. Know the possibilities. Understand the possibilities.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) ••••• You are capable of dismissing whatever you want. You are great at denial. Still, maintain awareness on a certain level.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ••••• You might not 100 percent understand what needs to happen if you go with a certain venture. Ultimately, this could be a problem – and a rather large one at that.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) ••••• Talk is cheap, and you do make a difference. The ball is in your court. Remember that and stay on top of your desires and situations.
