For Saturday, Aug. 4:

Opportunities head your way this year because of your brain power. You know things in advance before many, seeing the relationship between cause and effect. You might need to be explicit with others when describing what you do and why. Communication stars, as often you don’t see situations in quite the same light as others. You might want to approach life far more creatively. If you are single, romance is hot on your track! If you are attached, your bond becomes much more frisky. TAURUS can be pushy at times.
