Horoscope for August 19, 2018

Moon Alert

We have the “all clear” today to shop and do business. The moon is in Sagittarius.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

You feel rich! You feel pleased about your finances today. News that relates to the wealth and resources of your partner or someone else is reassuring. You know you can count on support from others and this feels good!

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Partnerships are enriching to you at this time. In fact, you might idealize a partnership because you feel a bit starry-eyed. While it’s good to be realistic, it’s true that your partnership will be what you believe it is. Your ideals will color it.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Work-related travel appeals to you today. You also will enjoy group activities and hanging out with others who are like-minded. Your idealism is aroused and you might act on this impulse. However, you might also want to lie in the sun and drink beer.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Romance is the stuff of movies today. You might have a serious crush on someone and put them on a pedestal. Actually, you will want to idealize many things today, including children, the arts and the beautiful creations of talented people. And why not? There is so much beauty in the world.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Home and family give you a warm feeling in your tummy today. Your home and family matter to you because for Leos, their home is their castle. You are also head of your clan, which is why you expect respect from others. Today you have this in abundance.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

You will enjoy yourself today because your positive frame of mind will lift your spirits and attract others to you. People are attracted to happy people. They want to bask in their aura, and perhaps they secretly want to know what makes them tick.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Be careful spending money today because it’s easy to blow a wad on something luxurious, elegant and expensive. You’re in a dreamy state of mind and you will be easily seduced by something. Plus, who loves beautiful things more than you?

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

This is a fortunate day for you and you can sense this. You know that you are blessed with what you have and you feel lucky when you consider how unfortunate so many on this planet are at this moment. It’s good to feel fortunate. Appreciation is important.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

The moon is still in your sign, and today you feel philosophical and thoughtful. This is because the spiritual side of your personality is awakened more than usual. In fact, religious, spiritual and mystical subjects might attract your attention. (Go do that voodoo that you do so well.)

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

You are of two minds today. Part of you wants to seek seclusion and peace and quiet to get away from it all. But another part wants to socialize with others and have profound discussions about important topics. Charitable organizations that help those who are less fortunate will appeal to you.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Most Aquarians have a strong desire to make the world a better place. You understand the power of the unification of like-minded individuals. Today is one of those days when you will think about this and wonder about your life direction in general. Are you doing what you really want to do?

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Travel to distant places and exotic lands totally appeals to you today because you want to do something to enrich your life and expand your world. For this reason, you will enjoy talking to people from other cultures and different countries.

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actor Matthew Perry (1969) shares your birthday today. You are sensitive, friendly and always warm, courteous and confident. You are also intelligent and self-motivated. This year it’s time to take a rest. It’s a more slower paced, wait-and-see year. Learn how to cooperate with others. Look for ways to practice kindness and be helpful to others. Be relaxed and easygoing. Focus on business and personal relationships.
