holiday-horoscopes 08/08/10

Aries (March 21-April 19): You can’t be expected to change what you don’t know needs fixing. Kick a few metaphorical tires today to make sure everything is in good working order.

Taurus (April 20-May 20): It’s one of those days when so little of what you think seems to be generated by your own mind. Take issue with some of the passing ideas.

Gemini (May 21-June 21): You love to share what you know, but you are careful to first determine what information is useful to others.

Cancer (June 22-July 22): Stress and drama cause unhealthy complications. For now, it’s better to avoid that person who seems to revel in the theatrical extremes of human emotion.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Sometimes, you want things that you will use for only a limited time, if you use them at all. Consider this carefully before you buy anything today.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Stay sharp. Ideally, your mind and body will be in a perpetual state of readiness.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): When was the last time you made a music mix for someone you love? And if this person happens to be you, all the better.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): There’s a definite goal for the day. Stay on track. Find a symbol for the mission to remind you at all times what you are doing.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): A loved one longs for the connection you experienced long ago. What you had is not gone; it’s just sleeping and needs a shake.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): This person may not like the music, foods and colors you like. But he or she will think your humor is hilarious.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Some metals become magnetic just by hanging out long enough with other metals. Similarly, the inanimate will take on your energy.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): To say you are not who you were is an understatement. At this point, it wouldn’t be a surprise if your DNA reflected the change as well.

Today’s birthday (Aug. 8): You believe in magic and luck, but most of yours comes about because you work so diligently. Stay the course and you’ll be amazed at what you accomplish by the end of the year. Over the next six weeks, new contacts lead to work and personal opportunity. Your lucky numbers are 10, 3, 22, 14 and 6.
