Horoscope: Aug. 21

Aries (March 21-April 19): You will be reminded that although artificial intelligence has come a long way, it is a poor substitute for human intelligence.

Taurus (April 20-May 20): Sometimes humility works in your favor. But if you’re too modest, others will assume that you have much to be modest about.

Gemini (May 21-June 21): You’ll be asked to tell a story. As you relay your tale, you will simplify the complicated.

Cancer (June 22-July 22): Excitement alights around you. You have this knack for squeezing the juiciest part and getting a sweet sound bite out of it.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Like a cat, you find the prize and chase it until the perfect moment — then you pounce.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You’ll be the expert pattern finder. You pick up clues. Others would be wise to follow your lead.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): You need calm almost as much as you need air. Noninvolvement in dramas will inspire you.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): It may feel as though you are going in circles and getting absolutely nowhere. Perhaps that is because there is nowhere to go.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You’ll handle a domestic issue brilliantly. The solution will have something to do with making sure the public and private you match up.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Give yourself extra mirror time because you’re likely to run into just the person by whom you don’t want to be caught off guard.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Part of living in the present is talking about the present. Make the current moment your main topic of conversation.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Strike up a conversation. You’ll find you share something in common with that stranger next to you.

Today’s birthday (Aug. 21): You’ll find a new way to make money in September. December is the most romantic month. You’ll make an important commitment in February. Your lucky numbers are: 12, 5, 39, 41 and 16.
