Horoscope for Sunday, August 1, 2021

Moon Alert

There are no restrictions to shopping or important decisions. The moon is in Taurus.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

You might make a To Do list today because you feel you should get things done. You don’t want to be frivolous and waste time. Children might be an increased burden. Likewise, romance might have challenges. You might even have to say goodbye to someone.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Conversations with parents and authority figures are serious. These discussions might limit your movements or your ideas and suggestions. Naturally, this might be discouraging. Or you might be held back by some other reality that is confining?

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

You certainly have mental discipline today. Because you’re in a serious frame of mind, you will get a lot of mental work done. If working, you will be precise and careful. “Measure twice; cut once.” However, you might view light-hearted, playful activity as a waste of time.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Today you will take a serious look at your finances, and you might have some concerns. You might feel broke or that you don’t have enough money to do what you want to do. This is because Saturn is affecting your financial outlook. On the other hand, a little thrift is a good thing.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

Mercury in your sign opposes stern Saturn, which makes you feel set apart from others, a bit isolated. You might be concerned or even depressed about a relationship. Be aware that everything changes constantly. Friends become enemies and enemies become friends. Hang in there.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Your glass might feel half-empty, which is why you might have a pessimistic view of things. You might feel separated from someone or have to say goodbye to someone. On the upside, you have excellent concentration, which means any research you do will yield results.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

A conversation with someone older might create concerns. They might criticize you or make suggestions that will limit your scope or your future plans. Remember: Every day is different. Some days we feel we can climb K2, and other days it’s tough to get out of bed. This is temporary.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

A conversation with a parent, boss or a member of the police might be serious today. You might feel criticized. The best way to handle today’s influence is to get busy with some hard work because this will give you a feeling of positive reward. Roll up your sleeves!

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Travel plans might disappoint. Likewise, school plans might look impossible or difficult. The good news is that your mind is focused and determined today, which means you can study with purpose and achieve certain goals. Do not be discouraged. Attitude is everything.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Help from a third party or a partner or close friend regarding fundraising or financial matters might disappoint you today. People are tightfisted and not forthcoming with money and support. Nevertheless, you can earn their respect through study and hard work.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Relations with partners and close friends are difficult today. They might criticize you or tell you why you can’t do something. You might even have to say goodbye to someone today? However, this is a temporary dark cloud on your horizon. Keep the faith.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Work might seem to be onerous and difficult, which makes you feel overwhelmed or discouraged. An authority figure might be demanding or critical. Bummer. Note: This is just for today. (It’s always darkest before it gets pitch black.)

If Your Birthday Is Today

Actor Jason Momoa (1979) shares your birthday. People respect you. You are calm, focused, tough and determined — all qualities of a natural leader. You have a dry wit and expect others to be honest with you. Honesty is an important value for you. This year is a time of change for you. That change can manifest in a number of ways. Be open to meeting new friends and accepting new paths of both direction and growth.
