For Sunday, Aug. 30:

This year, creativity comes through finding solutions. At the same time, some of the heaviness of recent years will leave your life. Remember to add that special touch at work or with interpersonal relationships. Add your imagination. If you are single, you might have a lot of fun fantasizing about each potential sweetie. Stay grounded in reality. If you are attached, your relationship becomes easier because you become easier. The bond will become warmer. Capricorn always has another perspective.
