Horoscope for Sunday, Sept. 8, 2019

Moon Alert

We have the all clear to shop and do business. The moon is in Capricorn.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Today is a mixed bag because you feel upbeat and optimistic, especially related to your job and your health. However, an interaction with a parent, boss, authority figure or police might discourage you. Don’t worry. Everything is fine.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

You’re keen to have fun and enjoy good times with others, especially kids and romantic partners. And you should be able to do this! However, news from the media or something related to politics, religion and racial issues might be a bummer.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Your dealings with close friends and partners are warm and wonderful. Everyone wants to have a good time! There is a fleeting, dark cloud on your horizon, however. (Some kind of financial obligation or financial restriction might be annoying.)

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Everything in the world begins with a thought. Think about this, you will see it is true. Today, your thoughts are positive, optimistic and expansive, which is why your world can be like that. However, a friend or partner might try to rain on your parade. Don’t let this happen.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

You feel confident about your financial situation. Admittedly, you might feel richer than you really are, but then everything is a state of mind, isn’t it? (Until the rent is due.) Health restrictions or job demands might be a drag.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Today you feel content. You’re happy to be alive and have your home and enough food and your basic needs met, especially compared to millions who are suffering (and certainly not reading this column). Appreciate who you are and what you have. Don’t let an older family member get you down.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

You might get caught up worrying about something. It’s so easy to worry; I know — I’m a worrier. But most of the things we worry about never happen! “Worry is like a rocking chair. It gives you something to do but gets you nowhere.”

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Your interaction with friends and groups will be enjoyable today. In fact, things are so positive, you might be tempted to promise more than you can deliver. (Don’t do that.) Stay with what is positive and encouraging and ignore niggling little worries that bring you down. Go with what works.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

You make a fabulous impression on bosses, parents, teachers, VIPs and the police. They think you walk on water. (It’s all smoke and mirrors.) While you are enjoying such good PR, you might be bummed out about financial matters or something that you own. It’s all good.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Travel plans look exciting. You have a future and your future looks bright! Whether you travel or expand your world through further education and training is entirely up to you. Because the moon is lined up with Saturn in your sign, you might feel critical, stingy or depressed. Really? Lighten up.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

It’s nice to be on the receiving end of some wealth, especially goodies from others. It looks like your partner is doing well, which is why you feel richer! Nevertheless, something going on behind the scenes is bothering you. Don’t let this get you down.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Relations with bosses, parents, friends and partners are positive and upbeat. That’s why you will have a great day dealing with others. Having said that, you might encounter someone older or more experienced who is a bit of a downer. Just work with this.

If Your Birthday Is Today

Politician Bernie Sanders (1941) shares your birthday today. You are a practical perfectionist. You are confident, level-headed, trustworthy and loyal. This year you are winding up many things you began nine years ago. It’s time to leave behind heavy burdens and move to something new and lighter! Start to identify what is no longer relevant in your life. You are lightening your load to get ready for new beginnings.
