Horoscope

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Wednesday, Aug. 3, 2011: This year, decide to manage your less-comfortable emotions. In time, you will be clued in to whether you are suppressing your feelings. If single, your unusually charming way attracts many people. If attached, your sweetie will help you see what you are not conscious of. Libra can charm even you. A baby born today after 3:04 a.m. Pacific time has a Sun in Leo and a Moon in Libra. Prior to that time, the Moon will be in Virgo.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) • • • Note a change in the air, especially in your energy and how you feel. Know that this is just a passage. Express your feelings rather than hold them in.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) • • • • • You are vibrant and full of energy. You could come off much stronger than you realize. Don’t hesitate to tell someone how you feel.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) • • • • Let your mind roam, and share pertinent ideas. Brainstorm away with a friend or associate. You’ll get results. Your vagueness of late doesn’t help clear out a problem.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) • • • • You could be overwhelmed by everything that is occurring. Because you are unsure of certain choices, it could be difficult to make a decision.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) • • • • You have a lot to say. In the next few weeks, your anger level could change. You could be more easily triggered if you are suppressing those feelings.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) • • • • Honor what is happening with a friend. This person could go on a wild diatribe about his or her feelings. It might be smart to help this person find a solution.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) • • • • • You know what to do and when to do it. Someone in authority might have the opposite opinion and lets you know. This could be a bone of contention for the next few weeks.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) • • • • You might want to rethink a choice or a move in another direction. Today, time is an ally. Take your time figuring out what to do.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) • • • • • You could be taken aback by an associate’s reaction. Indeed, this person could become far more assertive than you are aware or realize in the next few weeks.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) • • • Take the lead and know what you want. Others could choose to back out, but you need a certain amount of self-expression or control.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) • • • • Detach and observe, especially if you keep hitting a wall. Rather than lose your temper, go out for a walk and, for now, veer in a new direction.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) • • • • • Togetherness is the natural outcome of a problem if you handle it properly. You are full of energy. You will tend to become more playful or at least more lively.
