Horoscope for Thu, 08/05/2014

Aries (March 21 - April 19)

Your physical vitality should be quite strong, Aries, and you're encouraged by greater self-confidence. At the same time, however, someone seems to be trying to ruffle your feathers by being selfish and disrespectful of your space. This is likely to lead to conflict that you don't need. The good news is that it's likely to open you up to a different perspective, one that can ultimately be useful in understanding the situation.

Taurus (April 20 - May 20)

Things could be moving more quickly than makes you comfortable right now, Taurus. You may feel as if your own needs and agenda are getting lost in the fury bubbling around you. The secret key to add to your toolbox is the ability to go with the flow. It's crucial to be adaptable and roll with the punches rather than be victimized by them. Use the lightning-quick energy at hand to mobilize your efforts.

Gemini (May 21 - June 21)

Your physical strength is topnotch, Gemini. Now is a terrific time to join a sports team or start a company soccer program. Others will respect your leadership abilities. Your glow as a self-confident, constructive being is radiating positive energy. This combination of forces is extremely powerful. You have the opportunity to be wonderfully productive at this time. Work and play are likely to present you with exciting opportunities for advancement.

Cancer (June 22 - July 22)

You may feel indecisive, insecure, and stuck in the middle of a difficult situation, Cancer. Your energy could be drawn in one direction while your self-confidence is pulled in another. This dilemma has to do with your inability to integrate different aspects of your life that you try to keep separate. Try to look at things in terms of the whole. Notice how your actions in one part of your life have a ripple effect everywhere else.

Leo (July 23 - Aug. 22)

Communication with others should be very effective, Leo, and your social calendar will be full. You're feeling good about yourself, thanks to a boost in confidence that reminds you that you can do anything. You have the ability to juggle many things at once and the physical endurance to keep up a quick pace. Even though you may tend to be rather lazy, you might get a sudden inspiration to join a gym or sports team.

Virgo (Aug 23 - Sept. 22)

Relating to people may be difficult for you, since you get the feeling that others don't see things as deeply or emotionally as you, Virgo. Perhaps you feel everyone is shallow, making them luckier in one sense yet deprived in another. Try not to focus on others so much. Just concentrate on you. Don't take yourself so seriously. Adopt a more lighthearted approach to life.

Libra (Sept. 23 - Oct. 22)

You have a great deal of physical energy, Libra. At times, you may feel as if you have an endless wellspring of power. You're at a climactic point in your yearly cycle, when things are coming to a dramatic apex. Difficulties that pertain to this climax are likely to make you act out in an aggressive manner if things don't go your way. Find a constructive outlet for all this physical energy.

Scorpio (Oct. 23 - Nov. 21)

Finding the comfort point may be difficult for you, Scorpio. You might feel as if you aren't connecting with your ideals or goals. Even though you try to put things into motion, they don't really pan out the way you'd like. There's a difficult energy making you feel like you need to join one camp or the other to feel accepted. The problem is that neither side looks appealing. Feel free to start your own camp.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22 - Dec. 21)

Your upbeat, lively nature is fueled by the fast-paced energy at hand. You have a great deal of physical strength available to you, Sagittarius, and you can make tremendous strides in your yearly goals with very minimal effort. Take advantage of this time by focusing on your own needs. There is a great deal of support in place that will help you accomplish whatever your goals may be. Go for it.

Capricorn (Dec. 22 - Jan. 19)

Your indecisiveness may plague you, Capricorn. This is one of those times when you feel as if one second of hesitation will cost you dearly. Yet you take a while to process and internalize things before you're ready to act on them. Others may act and speak before they think. Don't get upset at yourself for handling things the way you do. More than anything, it's your lack of self-confidence that's holding you back.

Aquarius (Jan. 20 - Feb. 18)

You're now in a terrific position to make a significant move in your life, Aquarius. With a great deal of physical energy coupled with incredibly high self-esteem, you have what it takes to make a major push toward larger goals. There's opportunity coming at you from all angles, and the energy at hand is fast and furious. Your strong, courageous nature is ripe for hopping aboard when that train comes zooming by.

Pisces (Feb. 19 - Mar. 20)

You might feel as if you can't access your physical energy now, Pisces. You may experience frustration when you try to engage in a sport. You don't feel as if things are clicking into place as easily as they should. This feeling is taking a toll on your sense of self. Don't get down on yourself for feeling this way. Accept the fact that there are good times and not so good times for doing certain things.
