For Saturday, Aug. 22:

This year, use your willingness to break from your pattern and follow a different approach to life. Many of you could decide to develop your own business on a secondary level. If you are single, you attract many different types of people. Romance happens unexpectedly. If you are attached, the two of you experience more high-voltage moments than usual. Libra helps you make money.

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)

•••• Stay centered. Your instinct might be to tackle someone the minute you wake up. Try to go for a walk or jog instead. Your sense of direction returns midday. Tonight: Defer.

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

•••• Could you see a different end result? Let your creativity go to work. You might feel as if you don’t have what it takes. You do. Listen more to a child or loved one. Tonight: Don’t push so hard.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

••••• You are bound and determined to have it your way. You seem insolent or difficult to a close friend or loved one. Find an appropriate manner to express your mood. Tonight: Let your imagination rock and roll.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

••• Express your limitations and ask for help. Nevertheless, be prepared to deal with the situation alone. Tonight: Talking up a storm.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

•••• Keeping an eye on your expenses might not be what is needed to hold them down, but it certainly is the first step. Tonight: You don’t need to go far to meet up with a friend.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

•••• Curb your assertiveness in the morning. Don’t be surprised if you get a harsh response. Be careful with expenditures. Careful. Tonight: Your treat.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

••••• See past a problem and don’t allow a partner to get under your skin. Listen to news with a grain of salt. Tonight: Do your thing.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

•••• You cannot wiggle out of a responsibility. It would be best to move forward. Later in the day, you’ll be free and clear. Tonight: Just wish upon a star.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

•••• Defer. Worry less about people’s reactions. Certainly someone on the home front could make your morning less than agreeable. Tonight: Add that special quality to the moment.
