For Monday, Aug. 4:

You could be stunned by what goes on this year. Just when you think you are on cruise control, you discover otherwise. Find out what is going on at a deeper level. If you are single, you open up to potential. If you are attached, you are entering a very special period when the two of you will bond more deeply. Virgo can be possessive. In that case, steer clear.

Aries (March 21-April 19)
