See ya’ around town… NOTES AND NUMBERS: Vernonia Senior Center • 939 Bridge Street • 503-429-3912 Your Horoscope for August 2016 how you move about and handle dan- gerous objects! Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Yes your love life is number one. Within reach are all of the resources necessary to achieve your professional goals. You enjoy particular success in group ac- tivities. August is dynamic financially, but risky. You could get too involved and expose yourself to high stress. Take it easy, there is plenty of time to do it all! Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) Look to love, happiness and joint achieve- ments. You end up in lucky circum- stances, as if the universe is conspir- ing to fulfill your desires. Finances de- pend upon professional decisions and on how well you set your strategies in motion. An appropriate month for medical procedures. There is a ten- dency toward excess that you need to control. Focus on major goals and achieve them! Aries (March 21-April 19) Not an overly romantic time. But it is a good time for investigations, treatments, and care; particularly so for refocus- ing on older or neglected medical is- sues. Protect your digestive, nervous, and respiratory systems that might be more sensitive than usual. Long-dis- tance travels and contacts could be profitable, but there is an element of risk. Keep yours eyes open. Taurus (April 20-May 20) A good time to freely express your romanti- cism. Experiment, play, be adventur- ous and, of course, fall in love. You could enjoy one of the best vacations of your life. If you have to work, you should know you can achieve amaz- ing results – provided you take plea- sure in the work. Express your feel- ings! Particularly the deep, beautiful ones. continued from page 12 for violence or conflict. Relax and be as forgiving with others as you can. Cancer (June 21-July 22) August may bring you a busy schedule, hav- ing your freedom to act restricted, dealing with unpleasant tasks or work- ing under difficult conditions. But you can take comfort in the thought that you will make money and your efforts will be rewarded. Your strong suit is your good morale. Hold on to your sense of humor and adopt a positive attitude under all circumstances. Gemini (May 21-June 20) Saturn makes things more difficult, serious or complicated – and that’s since 2015. Saturn is neither cheerful, nor gener- ous. You’ve dealt with this configura- tion before, during March-April-May. It is a time of drawing conclusions, making decisions, and taking action. Avoid circumstances with a potential The Vernonia School District is looking for help in designing dugouts for its new softball and baseball fields.
