Georgia Nicols horoscopes for Aug. 11

Moon Alert

We have the “all clear” today to do business. The Moon is in Cancer.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Yesterday’s easygoing quality seems to have faded today. This morning, conversations with family members might be volatile or intense. As the day progresses, a general feeling of unrest might exist with home and family. Do not be impatient, even though you are eager for something to happen.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Be careful because this is a mildly accident-prone day. Basically, your threat is your own state of mind. You might be too excited, too emotional or too impatient about something, and this mindset is what creates problems with others or, in the extreme, triggers an accident. Chill out.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Don’t get bogged down in quarrels about money, cash flow or possessions today. Just let this pass. Later in the day, something unexpected might impact your cash flow. You might find money; you might lose money. Keep your eyes peeled.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Power struggles with others are likely today. Frankly, sometimes this happens because you are a sensitive sign, more sensitive than most people realize. When your feelings are hurt, you react and withdraw. But this can get a rise out of others. Be aware of this. Don’t be their bait.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Power struggles about something might erupt today because you are coming on too strong. Small wonder, because with the Sun and Mars in your sign, you are pumped with positive energy and bossier than usual. (Did I just say that?) Cut others some slack.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

You might be at odds with a female friend today. It could be lighthearted and lead to a feeling of being liberated or freer. Or it might be more intense, with anger and resentment. Disputes about debt, ownership and inheritances are prickly.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Difficulties with parents and authority figures, especially females, are likely today. You might feel that someone is curtailing your freedom or holding you back. If, in turn, this makes you feel rebellious, you will be inclined to do exactly the opposite of what anyone suggests. (Take your huff with you today in case you have to leave in it.)

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Tread carefully because the energy today can make you accident prone. Basically, this is due to feelings of excitement or agitation on your part about politics, religion, travel plans, medicine, the law or a racial issue. This could create interruptions at work.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

You have concerns about debt, shared property or other red-tape issues like inheritances or insurance disputes. They might even involve how to share expenses for a vacation or sports or a social outing. They could also involve children. Strive to be clearheaded and calm.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Relations with partners and close friends are dicey today. You might sense a power struggle going on; in fact, you probably will. It could sensitize you enough so later in the day, it creates disruptions with family relationships or your home routine. Just let it go.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Equipment related to your work might break down today. Similarly, power struggles might occur with co-workers or someone you’re involved with depending on what you’re doing. Whatever happens will make you excited, impetuous and a bit rebellious. Don’t do anything you will later regret.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Be patient with your kids today and similarly be patient with romantic partners because power struggles, jealousy and manipulation are all too easy. Negative feelings might actually impact something you own or your cash flow. Be smart so you don’t let this happen.

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actor Chris Hemsworth (1983) shares your birthday today. You want to teach others. Deep down, you are a whistleblower. You want to reveal the truth because you are powerful, insightful and have strong morals. This year something you’ve been involved with for about nine years will end or diminish to make room for something new. Take it easy and learn to serve others. This is a good year to travel.
