Horoscope: Aug. 31
Aries (March 21-April 19): Peace is not some distant ideal. You already experience it many times a day. Let those moments take over.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): A choice may seem serious, but it’s not. Your life will be delicious either way.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): You’ll dive in, even though you don’t know what to do exactly. That’s what makes your life exciting.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Someone will tempt you today; it’s as if they have their methods down to a science.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): You are almost always passionate about something, but your feelings don’t usually take over your life. You’re uncharacteristically determined and intense.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Daydreaming isn’t an indulgence — it is a necessary exercise, like taking your imagination out for a walk.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): When you are around a certain someone, you suddenly handle everything with grace because you see yourself as this person sees you.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): You woke up knowing what you wanted from this day. Anyone can see that it would be extremely difficult to sway you from your path.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You will be drawn to artistic (possibly moody) people, as your own creativity is developing in new ways. Keep in mind: It is possible for a person to think deeply without thinking clearly.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Some fixes are more harmful than the problem. Best to focus on what’s right instead of what’s wrong.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You’ll hit upon an aspect of work that seems uncharted. Perhaps others discovered this, but no one knew how to turn it into an advantage. You figure it out.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Some relationships are beautiful because they are so difficult to explain or define. You’ll add a chapter to such a relationship today.
Today’s birthday (Aug. 31): You quickly get where you want to because you see in crystal clarity. Praise and award in September. Finances improve in November. Career breakthrough in May. Cancer and Taurus people adore you. Lucky numbers: 6, 25, 1, 22 and 18.
