TOMORROW’S
HOROSCOPE
SUNDAY, AUGUST 18, 2019
THATABABY
ARIES (March 21-April 19).
The spirit of play has more to
teach you about the people
around you than you could
possibly get from more formal
discourse. Today, you’ll learn a
person’s nature and find a point
of comfortable connection.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
This goal you’ve been working
on might not bring what you’ve
hoped for, but that will proba-
bly be its own kind of reward.
If not, having finished will be
the reward, which comes in the
form of confidence.
PHOEBE AND HER UNICORN
LOLA
GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
Complaining doesn’t improve
things, but it can bring aware-
ness to what needs improve-
ment. From there, a decision
must be made. There are three
choices: stop, work around it or
change.
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
The shiny new objects and
opportunities will appeal to
you far more today than the
actions that feel safe and the
environments that are familiar
and comfortable.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). How
can you tell life is going well?
Various balances will be record-
ed and reported, but they say
nothing of the kinship in casual
banter, the laughter between
friends, the way you felt when
that song came on.
SIX CHIX
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Be
careful with your help. If you
help too much, you could be
hurting by nurturing a de-
pendency that will hinder a
person’s ability to develop skills
on his or her own.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).
Finally, you’ll get the chance to
sit down with someone you’ve
been missing. As poet May
Sarton suggests, “Loneliness is
the poverty of self; solitude is
the richness of self.”
MUTTS
BABY BLUES
ZITS
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).
You may watch the weather,
but unless it’s extreme, you
don’t let it interfere with your
plans. Focusing on what you
can do in the moment is always
better than worrying about all
the things you have no control
over.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.
21). Take the temperature of
the room. You’ll change it just
by being there. The more you
understand how things are, the
better you can make them into
what you want them to be.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19). People assume that the
heavy-handed oppressor is the
bad guy to be feared. Actually,
the one to watch out for will
come in soft form. That which
tempts, amuses and distracts
us can have dangerous poten-
tial.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
You can either fix what’s broken
or wait a few months more
for the availability of the new
version. Likely, this is about
something other than technol-
ogy.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
What seems like a very small
distraction simply takes up too
much of your time. You’ll be so
much more productive when
that one diversion is no longer
a part of the picture.
SUNDAY’S BIRTHDAY (August
18). You’ve won a permanent
home in someone’s heart.
There’s comfort in this, also a
distinct brand of discomfort
that goes by the name “adven-
ture.” Feeling loved and safe
inspires you to take risks you
wouldn’t have before. You’ll
enjoy different transportation.
A professional circle opens to
you. Sagittarius and Capricorn
adore you. Your lucky numbers
are: 28, 45, 4, 9 and 30.
