For Tuesday, Aug. 21:

This year you have the creativity and drive to create a better platform, be it professionally or personally. You might often opt for brainstorming sessions and choose to work in situations with a diversity of opinions and ideas. Understanding differences can be used positively rather than negatively. If you are single, during 2007-2008 you could meet someone important. If you are attached, focus on the creativity and energy that lie between you. SAGITTARIUS introduces fun into life.
