Today’s horoscope, Aug. 2, 2024: Love is like a wave
HOROSCOPES BY HOLIDAY, BY HOLIDAY MATHIS
A wave can be water and water can be a wave, though only under the right circumstances, for water is only a wave when it is doing a particular thing, a thing that cannot be captured, say, in a jar. Love is like this. It’s better to love and be loved for your essence. If they only love you when you’re a wave, they’re probably surfers. They’ll migrate according to the tides.
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Someone awaits your signal and will not go until you give the nod. This subtle gesture will start an irreversible chain of events. These are exciting times — the start of something very fun for all.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Take your time. Some of what you throw into the mix won’t work out, but it’s all good information to your process. Eliminating a few options is crucial to the rest of your journey and will help you determine your style with everything going forward.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You will acknowledge your emotions without letting them rule you. Through emotional awareness, you can respond thoughtfully and deliberately, leading to more balanced and fulfilling experiences.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). There are hundreds of ways to accomplish a task. You sense what’s going to work for you, but you don’t know until you dive in and start making your own mistakes and earning your own points, awarded to you by you.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Laughter is among the very few medicines without side effects. The humor on offer today is easy for you to pick up on, and when you do, it will exercise your insides and give a gentle massage to your heart, too.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Today you will know the satisfaction of accomplishment. That’s an easy thing to know. You’ll also sense more nuanced things; for instance, you’ll get the feeling someone’s thinking about you and you’ll guess their next move with accuracy.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). People will do as you wish, as long as they know what that is. If you can, be clear and specific about your vision. But if you’re not sure, share your whimsy and your best guesses as to how you might create mutual benefit.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). No-decision is a decision. In fact, not deciding is the best decision you can make on a day like today when you’re simply not convinced of the correctness of any direction. More options will become available tomorrow.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Spend time in nature, observe the world around you and let curiosity lead the way. This process of taking things in fuels your next moves with energy and perspective, enabling you to create more than you thought possible.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Self-knowledge comes from action. It’s not found in idle contemplation, but in the heat of doing. As you engage in your tasks, whether mundane or challenging, your role and purpose become clear.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You’ll be tempted to tinker with things that don’t matter. It’s not a total waste because it teaches you about your taste and you gain skill with this kind of play. Still, move quickly through the exercise.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). The familiar comforts and typical pleasures might fall short. This can be unsettling, but it’s in these moments of unexpected dissatisfaction that surprises can arise. From the discomfort, new opportunities and insights often emerge.
TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Aug. 2). You’ll carry the profound sense that you’re a part of something vast and magnificent, a vital piece of the world’s intricate puzzle. People think of you as their rock, coach and cheerleader who asks nothing in return. Their esteem will be among your greatest treasures. More highlights: a physical goal achieved, winning races and spectacular dates. Aquarius and Scorpio adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 12, 4, 18, 22 and 19.
