Horoscopes

For Saturday, Aug. 10, 2002. Those with birthdays today: Your happy sense of humor and cheerful ways sometimes distance others. These people don’t understand you or might be jealous. Don’t worry about this characteristic, but do learn to express yourself in a more gentle way with children and loved ones. On the other hand, close associates understand your temperamental ways. You will begin a new life cycle this year. If you are single, you might meet the right person. If you are attached, be sensitive to your sweetie, and your relationship will bloom.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult

Aries (March 21-April 19)

  • You drive through a project like a tornado through a town. Don’t hesitate to remodel a room or take on a new commitment, although a partner could give you flack. Tonight: Dance the night away.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

  • You’re ready for fun and games. You could be upset when a partner or friend veers in a totally different direction. You cannot change this person, but you can give him or her space. Tonight: Frisky aren’t we?

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

  • Consider canceling plans and spending some quality time with your family or those close to you. Don’t be surprised if you get some flack. You’re paying the price for being so desirable! Tonight: At home.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

  • Whether out roaming or browsing through a favorite store, you have a ball. You might need to let go of one set of plans to cover all the ground you want to cover. You seem unstoppable. Tonight: Out and about.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

  • Pressure builds within a relationship or a potential relationship. Willfulness can separate rather than bring together. Tonight: Your treat.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

  • Move a venture off the back burner. Unfortunately, you might start an uproar where you least want it. Fireworks could ensue, but at the same time, they clear the air. Tonight: An overture goes far.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

  • You might not mean to upset someone or vice versa. Both of you could find it difficult to immediately sort through feelings. Be vulnerable and open, rather than taking an assertive action. Tonight: Vanish while you can.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

  • A family member or one whose authority you care about lets you know where he or she stands. Intensity marks your decisions regarding finances and feelings. Tonight: Do what makes you happy.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

  • You have a lot of ground to cover. At times, this person can test your limits, but this also gives you a wonderful opportunity to detach. Tonight: In the limelight.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

  • A partner reaches out, perhaps not in the manner you would like. Consider the underlining message, and don’t get so uptight about the delivery. Tonight: Where your friends are.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

  • Others seek you out with unprecedented speed and determination. You might decide to take the day off with a special friend, despite all the invitations. Tonight: Let someone else lead.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

  • * Someone might want something that you aren’t prepared to give. Dump work; you cannot always think work. Be more playful. Tonight: Where the action is.
