DAY AFTER TOMORROW’S
HOROSCOPE
THURSDAY, AUG. 11, 2022
RHYMES WITH ORANGE
ARIES (March 21-April 19). You
don’t have to try to be interest-
ing; someone already finds you
fascinating as you react to the
normal ups and downs of life.
Heightened emotions cause you
to do something you would not
ordinarily do.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Too
much introspection is a bad in-
vestment of your energy and can
thwart your productivity. A lack of
objectivity makes it impossible to
see your best move. Get feedback.
Let other people be your mirrors.
B.C.
DILBERT
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). In
many ways you feel blessed
beyond reason, and yet there’s
something more you want. You
may wonder if you have a right to
it, but that’s not the point. The real
question is, are you willing to do
what it takes?
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
Those who know you trust you
to get what’s funny about the
situation. You’ll feel their invisible
winks. When you reconvene, you’ll
discuss deeper layers and laugh
over your shared knowledge of
the inside story.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). There’s a
powerful intuition alive in you, no
doubt activated by your intention
to defend, support and uplift oth-
ers. To that end, not everything
you’re moved to do is entirely
logical, and yet it will all serve
your worthy purpose.
BIZARRO
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). A
sprinkle of uncertainty will make
life exciting. Too much of it will
have the opposite effect, ex-
hausting your vital resources. Pay
attention to how you’re feeling
and when it gets too intense, flee
to the safety of familiar comforts.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Some-
times you think you aren’t a natu-
rally patient person, but learning
the habits of patience will be the
next best thing to actually em-
bodying the virtue. Today this will

start with identifying the source
of your impatience.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).
You don’t dislike people, it’s just
that you don’t need anyone right
now. When you’re alone, you feel
deliriously satisfied, able to amuse
yourself with very little – a benefit
of your fantastic imagination.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
You will touch someone’s heart
with the compliment you offer.
There is a chance that the other
person’s reaction won’t show on
their face. Your unexpected kind-
ness will take time to process.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
You could be the emotional
support in a bad situation, but it’s
far better to put your attention on
changing the situation so it’s fair
and balanced enough to support
everyone who is in it. A restructur-
ing is in order.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You
probably don’t think you need
contributions to launch the proj-
ect of the day, but giving people a
chance to help will also give them
a purpose, a reason to bond, and
the self-esteem that comes from a
giver’s high.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Since
there are exciting things going on
for you, you cherish, and indeed
require, the space to process
and recuperate. You’ll find peace
in humble, quiet scenes and be
restored in stillness and solitude.
THURSDAY’S BIRTHDAY (Aug.
11). Location will be a huge factor
in business success and it strongly
affects your personal life too. Your
cosmic birthday gift is an uncanny
sense for finding the right place
and time. You’ll provide what
people need; the more people
you serve, the more powerful
you become. Finances are lifted
giving you new options. Taurus
and Gemini adore you. Your lucky
numbers are: 7, 8, 12, 35 and 17.
