TOMORROW’S
HOROSCOPE
FRIDAY, AUGUST 30, 2019
ARIES (March 21-April 19).
People say and do odd things.
Maybe you’re not sure how to
take them. Assume goodwill. It’s
far better than cynicism, which is
depressing if you turn out to be
right, and worse if you turn out
to be wrong.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). The
challenges get steeper, but don’t
worry. You’re not a run-of-the-
mill contender in this arena. You
know what you’re doing. You’ve
practiced for this, and you’re a
force to be reckoned with.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You
know how to complete your
work, show up on time and bring
a willingness to work with others,
even the difficult ones. It’s why
you keep getting asked back.
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
You have talent, but that’s not
what will take you to the goal.
It doesn’t matter half as much
as other things, like persistence
and applying oneself to the most
important task at hand.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). When
fear subsides, the brain is quiet.
It’s out of this quiet mind that
deep insight and intelligence
emerges. So the first step toward
making a smart move is to create
a bubble of safety and get men-
tally still.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
What’s the thing you like about
yourself today? You’re allowed to
think it. You’re even allowed to
say it, to yourself or anyone who
will listen. It’s about time you
got on your own side in a bigger
way.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Peo-
ple fear what you think of them
more than you might guess. So
whatever you do to make them
feel comfortable is not just you
being nice; it’s you doing what’s
necessary for sociable living.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).
The safety net can have an effect
whether or not it’s actually there.
The confidence one gets in
thinking that it’s there will con-
tribute to surefooted action. So
how can you make yourself feel
safer about taking this risk?
THATABABY
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.
21). Good taste is often a matter
of context. If you strive to be
more in sync with the people
around you, you’ll naturally grav-
itate toward tastefulness. Then
again, it helps if like and admire
the people around you.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19). How can you bring more
awareness to the scene you’re in?
Really, all it takes is a you-to-you
request. What is it that you think
you should be noticing? Start
with what interests you and go
deeper.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
Most will be caught up in the
agenda of projecting an image
that feels like the right one
necessary to feel comfortable
in the current surroundings. Go
beyond that agenda and you’ll
really be living.
PHOEBE AND HER UNICORN
LOLA
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
Obedience isn’t the entire point
of parenting, but sometimes it’s
taught that way. You’ve expe-
rienced some of that yourself,
and you’ll think about this in an
interaction having to do with the
balance of authority.
FRIDAY’S BIRTHDAY (Aug. 30).
There are some obstacles that
you really need to work through
in order to get the lesson, and
others that you can effectively
vault over, essentially saved by
a hero or spared with an angel’s
grace. Both come into play over
the next six months. Your social
scene will sparkle. Interesting
people come into your world.
Sagittarius and Aquarius adore
you. Your lucky numbers are: 9,
40, 2, 22 and 18.
