LEO (JULY 23 – AUG. 22)
Grasshoppers and cats have a lot in common. Cats live for the moment and enjoy life as it comes. Of course, that’s where the comparison ends ’cause cats wouldn’t make the same mistakes as a lowly bug, would they? Well then, start workin’ ’n’ quit bummin’, ’cause you know that winter’s a-comin’!

VIRGO (AUG. 23 – SEPT. 22)
O is for “optimist” and “ostrich.” An optimist thinks things’ll get better, but an ostrich thinks they already are. As you can understand, with its head in the sand, that ostrich ain’t gettin’ too far. Thankfully, you still see some reality and know that O also stands for “opportunity” — unless you are an ostrich, of course!
 
LIBRA (SEPT. 23 – OCT. 22)
You air signs often let your head drift far off into the clouds, where deviation from lofty ideals ain’t allowed. Trouble is, when you look down on folks from so far above the Earth, it’s hard to see their worth. This week, show some understandin’, or you could soon see a crash landin’!
 
SCORPIO (OCT. 23 – NOV. 21)
Like Peter Parker, you’re learnin’ that with great power comes great responsibility. You can dig that, but do you wanna learn first-hand how folks love nothin’ more at all than to see the mighty fall? This week, watch your step very carefully, or that’s exactly what they’re gonna see!
 
SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22 – DEC. 21)
The tide is turnin’ and there’s no use in fightin’ it, mostly ’cause there’s no way of knowin’ which way it’s presently goin’. That don’t mean you oughta give up ’n’ let yourself sink deep into the drink. Just keep yourself afloat and if you don’t reach shore, you’ll soon get picked up by a boat!
 
CAPRICORN (DEC. 22 – JAN. 19)
If you’re wonderin’ why your life seems to have started to stall, it’s probably just ’cause you can’t have it all. Sooner or later, something’s gotta give, since you can’t continue to live this way indefinitely. Sacrifice can be painful, it’s true, but in this case, the pain’ll pay off for you!
 
AQUARIUS (JAN. 20 – FEB. 18)
You Aquarians naturally wanna make changes in the world but, unfortunately, a common no-no is to try to do so solo. There’s strength in numbers, and if you wanna awaken folks from their slumber, you’ll be much more effective if you team up with those who share a similar directive!
 
PISCES (FEB. 19 – MARCH 20)
When water gets stagnant, it starts to stink. That’s why you need to stir yours up a li’l bit. This week, take some time out for yourself to figure out what needs to be shaken up in your life. Once you know which way you want things to flow, you’ll soon be able to make it so!
 
ARIES (MARCH 21 – APRIL 19)
There are huge horns on your head, so it’s like you were genetically engineered just to bash it into stuff your whole life. Well, now there’s one more wall to smash that’s causin’ you strife. If you’re up to, and succeed at this task, then you’ll soon get the answers for many questions you ask!
 
TAURUS (APRIL 20 – MAY 20)
Y’know, a coward does’t necessarily need to be afraid. Laziness can cause some of the same symptoms, like avoidin’ doin’ what needs to be done or takin’ a chance and havin’ some fun. The fact is, whether it’s somethin’ you want or you need, you’ve gotta take some kinda action if you wanna succeed!
 
GEMINI (MAY 21 – JUNE 20)
Look out Gemini, ’cause within a month and a bit, your short attention span is about to wreak havoc with your well-laid plan. That’s when Mercury’ll go retrograde, and your good intentions’ll start to fade. However, there’s hope, and if you build enough momentum now, when September comes you won’t be tempted to coast!
 
CANCER (JUNE 21 – JULY 22)
Fallin’ off a horse is easy. One, two, three is easy. Stealin’ candy from a baby? Easy. Bein’ in love? No way, José. If it was, would people write so many stories, poems and songs about it? This week, rise to the challenge, and your efforts at preventin’ love from bein’ thwarted’ll be handsomely rewarded!
