We have little control over what we choose to recall from the previous few weeks. Set the scene perfectly, including the lighting, the words, the hand brushing, and the aroma of food. You want everything to stick in their memory. However, memory is not submissive. It preserves what it desires. Not the speech, but a glimpse. Not the kiss, but a chair. You can fill the present with things you believe are valuable, but everything will either linger or depart on its own.
March 21–April 19 is ARIES. You won’t receive the rebound energy if you never let the pendulum to swing. It doesn’t restore you. You simply keep getting slimmer. Progress is made possible by rest, not the other way around. You can find yourself again even in moments of silence.
April 20–May 20 is TAURUS. Give a thorough description of your issue, and you’ll be halfway there. Discuss it with another intelligent person. Today, you will be able to choose from them. Taking thorough notes will ensure that none of today’s treasure is lost. In the future, you will be constructing upon this foundation.
May 21–June 21 is GEMINI. Sometimes you’re simply exhausted on all levels—mentally, physically, and emotionally. No amount of preparation can overcome the fact that your body is requesting rest rather than reform when you’re feeling that way. You revere the great healer when you honor sleep.
June 22–July 22: CANCER. Even if you can see the incident in your rearview mirror, you need a different perspective to comprehend how it relates to everything else. Distance is beneficial. And altitude. Pattern, rationale, and possibly even peace are brought about by a high-level perspective.
LEO (23 July–22 August). Since you start by being distinctly yourself, you will be able to get to know someone better. It’s good if they’re interested. If not, allow it to divert your focus to other productive avenues. To connect, you’re here.
VIRGO (23 August–22 September). In a bigger context, your job makes sense. You and others both recognize your worth; you are no longer speculating about it. Additionally, the day goes smoothly, plans go off without a hitch, and people follow through on their commitments. How fulfilling.
LIBRA (23 September–23 October). Like someone who understands that surviving is insufficient since you’re after freedom, you’re simultaneously wishing and building.The vision is in you. The timeline is in your possession. You are strong. And someone else loves you and thinks you can succeed.
SCORPIO (24 October–21 November). A single discussion, a single spark, or an unexpected pairing can completely change the tone, the result, or even the course of one’s life. And it will be today. Social dynamics are dynamic, alchemical forces rather than chance.
SAGITTARIUS, November 22–December 21. You’re always guessing in a relationship. For one minute: enthralled. Next: perplexed. Then a flare-up occurs. It’s not dull, but it’s not stable either. Don’t expect a resolution quite now. You remain in the center.
(December 22–January 19) CAPRICORN. Someone is attempting to assist by providing what they believe to be a temporary solution or a helpful lifeline. However, they overlook the fact that you are not a novice at the time. A thousand times, you have been to the brink and back. You don’t require guidance. A witness is required.
January 20–February 18: AQUARIUS. Yes, once more, you are responsible for reading the room because the others aren’t. They are filling the void left by self-interest. Before figuring out how to manage those interests during the hours of impending encounter, you will first see and arrange them in your own thoughts.
February 19–March 20 is PISCES. Send information about your future self into the cosmos. This is your incarnation waiting to rise; it is not a dream; it is already here and approaching you. Continue developing the habits that will benefit this version of yourself in the interim.
It’s my birthday today, August 24. The life you envision is within reach — not a space for someday, not a fantasy life, not a life you ll live if everything magically falls into place, but something happening now, by the work of your hands, wit and will. More highlights: Love improves everything — your health, fitness, mood and attitude. Assignments send you on adventures. Your name will be prominent in the credits. Aries and Taurus adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 5, 7, 16, 21 and 30.
