Horoscopes

For Tuesday, Aug. 10, 2004. Those with birthdays today: You’ll need your strength to deal with the many different forces that run in and out of your life this year. You are capable of making a lot of money, but also of spending a lot. Use good sense with any money dealings. Communication flourishes in the later part of the year. If you are single, a relationship might be very heavy this year, though you will enjoy the socializing. Don’t push this relationship toward commitment until next year. If you are attached, agree to disagree. You also might need to separate your finances. Socialize as a couple more often, warming up your bond.

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)

  • Your fiery nature could be plugged in to your work and health. Start a health kick. Think about a diet or exercise. Do something physical for yourself. Tonight: At a favorite spot.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

  • Deal with finances head-on. You can be sure that an associate sees a money issue in a different light. Tonight: Order in.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

  • Others continue to be difficult, especially on the home front. In the next few weeks, a roommate decides to create an uproar. Tonight: Hang out at home.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

  • You want to reach out for those around you. You don’t want to stand on ceremony, but someone might be out of sorts, or others in general could be unusually aggressive. Tonight: Get some extra zzz’s.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

  • You know what you want, but others could give their share of flak, making sure you know. You might want to revise your thinking about spending. Tonight: Where the crowds are.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

  • You have unusually high energy, which easily could be misdirected. Be careful with bosses and public appearances. Tonight: Work late.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

  • Curb a tendency to suppress your anger, because in the next month this behavior could backfire on you. You could either blow up at the slightest thing (having held your feelings in for too long), or you could get sick. Tonight: Relax at a movie, or answer e-mail.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

  • A partner has a lot to share. Learn to work and develop projects together. You need to look at the long-term course of action rather than act immediately. Tonight: Be with your favorite person.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

  • You could react strongly to another’s nudginess and bossy manner. Pull back some and decide not to get involved. Tonight: Observe the whirlwind around you. Work late if possible.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

  • You might be making mountains out of molehills. Detach and observe. You’ll accomplish a lot by just hanging out, doing your work and observing. Tonight: Take a long walk.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

  • A friend disappoints you. Perhaps you are too open and vulnerable. Romance will develop if you are willing to reveal the real Water Bearer. Tonight: Be more playful.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

  • Others act up, and you might want to run away. Actually, taking some time for yourself might be perfect. Partners could be difficult and full of criticism. Tonight: Let the child in you out.
