Horoscope

August 12, 2002

- Joyce Jillson -
The moon in Libra joins Venus in Libra, so everyone is in the mood to find a loving companion – even the most entrenched bachelors and bachelorettes. On-again, off-again relationships become more stable. Professionals and those in service businesses should expect to do a lot of hand-holding, as people are seeking reassurance.

ARIES (March 21-April 19).
You’ve got it, and you flaunt it. Why not? Your social skills are in rare form. By lunchtime, you’re figuring out what you really want by process of elimination. Drama builds in a love relationship.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
You get instant respect from others if you can set standards and stick to them. Shopping is your perfect social forum. Time away from it all is what you need tonight. Put yourself in a position conducive to introspection.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
You’ll be magnetically drawn to what teaches you more about life. Resist anyone who tries to commit you to just one plan of attack, and be wary of those who don’t match your enthusiasm. Love affairs evoke powerful emotions.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).
It’s easy to say more than you mean to. Give loved ones the benefit of the doubt, and don’t be hasty! What may become a monstrous obstacle to our success can probably be handled in one courageous phone call.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22).
An adversary may offer you a direct challenge – and you’ll probably win if you accept – but is it worth it? Tonight, give thought to your calling in life. Don’t settle for the ordinary. Special people do special things.

TODAY'S BIRTHDAY (August 12).
The sun, life and others finally smile on you and your goals. A boost in income comes by late September. Tackle overdue financial issues and family problems now, as concessions will be made in October. Why decide about love right now? Keep the merry-go-round rolling, and you come across more choices (a new Pisces). Your lucky numbers are: 6, 10, 17, 24 and 29.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
You’ll get a platform to speak your wishes and state your cause. Rely on a partner’s clear thinking, especially in matters that have to do with your passion. Don’t gamble. Teens need forgiveness.

LIBRA (Sept.23-Oct.23).
Accept a last-minute invitation. Important and impressive people come into your realm. Use imagination in the line of duty. Your crew needs you to think of what no one else did.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).
Experience counts, but networking skills must also be honed. You get a small chance to do just that at lunch. Every word counts. Take the far future into consideration before making a financial decision.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
This morning lends an excellent framework for presenting your ideas – just be sure to listen more than talk. Your may happen upon love with someone met through a phone call or chance encounter. Look your best tonight.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
A new opportunity to express your creativity presents itself, but you’ve got to be willing to be a student all over again. It doesn’t help to complain about your work. Others would love to have your job. Spend time outdoors.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
Make sure your desire to protect others does not deprive them of their individual responsibility. Fun is ahead, but first, it’s time to straighten out personal finances. Job hunters: Pull strings, and ask for favors.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
Tardiness threatens your credibility. Colleagues are jealous of your successful private life, so ignore what they say. Power comes from telling the truth at a key moment. Tonight, watch out for the grass-in-always-greener syndrome.

ASTROLOGICAL QUESTIONS:
"You’ll never answer this, I know. I’m a Sag accountant involved in those major headlines you’ve seen. I’m wealthy, sure, but am petrified about jail and testifying about business. What help/hope do the starts offer?"

Astrology always offers hope and options (though not stock options!) and is never judgmental. Being a Sagittarian, you are more focused on the future than most, and thus, you may neglect small details. Though you are not one to curry favor, it might be helpful to show some of your vulnerability to others in the next months. If you are going to plea-bargain, the astrological period during which you will get the best deals from the authorities is between today and Sept. 7. An older colleague, probably retired, is going to bat for you behind the scenes, but it is best not to contact him right now. In October, some Sags who are in contentious business dealings may find that nervous partners, even relatives, will betray them. This fall, avoid depending on others to act as they have in the past. You might decide to seek out new attorneys as well. In mid-2003, you have an aspect of protection, so it is very unlikely that you will receive any jail time.

CELEBRITY PROFILES:
In opinion polls, Lisa Kudrow often wins as the favorite "Friend." As the birth mother of triplets on the show, this real-life Leo know that babies are lucky for natives of her sign, helping a career instead of hindering it, as some might believe. She could be the only cast member to win an Oscar – maybe in 2006. Kudrow’s typical Leo physical features include beautiful hair, cat eyes and a long, elegant neck.
