Horoscope: Aug. 13

Aries (March 21-April 19): You are blessed and, therefore, feel that you should be happy. Yet, unless life pushes you beyond a normal daily experience, it is not likely to feel very fulfilling.

Taurus (April 20-May 20): You’ll be curious about other belief systems and past cultures. By studying different social systems, you further develop your own.

Gemini (May 21-June 21): You laugh at those who suggest that you should let your heart defy logic — as if you had any other choice!

Cancer (June 22-July 22): Limit your apologies. If you really do something wrong, you should say you are sorry. But it’s not your job to make sure everyone is happy.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): You have a loyal friend and supporter. And when you rush in naively, this person will watch your back and stand guard over your heart.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): If only relationships would run more like a business, with terms spelled out in a contract you both signed. Instead, there’s a lot of gray.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Sometimes, it only takes one match to light a forest fire. Other times, a campfire requires the whole box. Much depends on circumstances.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): You’ll notice your reasons for doing a job are different from what they usually are.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Unlike when you were younger, you are now so shrewdly focused that short of a natural disaster, nothing fazes you.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You go at things harder than most: working early, staying late. Make plans to relax and play.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Remain neutral as you recognize the consequences of the actions you took.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Keep your eyes open for a job that will teach you the skills you need to possess in your dream job.

Today’s birthday (Aug. 13): Emotional and physical distances are bridged soon. September brings family additions. November challenges you to make money doing something new. December brings a rare good fortune. Aries and Cancer adore you. Your lucky numbers are 6, 35, 50, 42 and 19.
