Horoscope for today, Sept. 8, 2024: Some ideas are worth keeping, some tossing

Posted by Admin September 8, 2024 Horoscope

With the sun pulling on Saturn in the sign of the fish, there are ideas on the line. Some are worth reeling in, and others deserve a catch and release. Expectations matter as much as you think they should. When you think there’s something meaningful at stake, there is. And if that’s too stressful, try letting it go. Then suddenly, it doesn’t matter, which is just as valid.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). It’s no surprise that you are surrounded by good people today — people who share your core values and some of the superfluous extras, too. You also bring out the best in people, so even if you wind up in a motley crew, you still can’t go wrong.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You’ll get confirmation that you’re doing what you set out to do. You’re getting the attention that matters to you, engaging with it effectively. Even as you hit these metrics, you can feel your priorities shifting — not because you’re fickle but because you’re growing.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Does it fortify you to know that you are someone’s favorite? Does it put the pressure on? Truthfully, you don’t have to work to maintain your position, but that’s precisely why you should. The first rule of favorites: Never take it for granted.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). You now realize the profundity of what you heard and dismissed long ago. Wisdom is patient. It sticks around until you’re ready to understand and apply it. Today brings just the opportunity.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). The schedule won’t go to plan. What you thought would take a long time might happen in a flash, while little things linger and last. Roll with the changes and enjoy outcomes better than originally intended.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). It’s typically untrue, but salespeople want you to believe that their offering is unique and there is little of it left in the world. What’s really rare is often right in front of you, can’t be bought and doesn’t need to be sold.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Love and logic will go their separate ways. Instead of wondering what another person is thinking, try to wrap your heart around what they might be feeling. You’ll be extraordinarily successful.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Avoiding certain kinds of pain keeps one safe, while avoiding other kinds of pain keeps one small. You won’t extend your avoidance to discomfort because you know that some of the best things that happen are born in it.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You are the glue of a group — when you’re not being the grease. Today, you’ll use your friendliness and social grace to bring people together, and they’ll naturally form the relationships that make sense.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You may not be aware of the acknowledgments you would most like to hear until someone says them and you light up. Once you figure it out, you can take out the guesswork for others and give them a direct line to your happiness.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Who gets noticed? Which ideas get airtime? Where does attention flow in general? These are the hot topics of the day. You’ll hone your leadership skills as you guide the vision for a group.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Many around you are oblivious to the pain of stoics, but not you. You see tears that only fall on the inside and hear the silent whimpers of suffering. You will ease someone’s mind and soothe their pain.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Sept. 8). You’ll finally have that very special experience you longed for. Instead of the pretend or pared-down version, you will fully grow into a role. Consider entering the mix as a student, volunteer or intern. More highlights: poetic justice, actual justice and a sweet success representing the culmination of years of hard work. Capricorn and Libra adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 6, 36, 12, 1 and 29.

CELEBRITY PROFILES: P!nk took her pop star name from the character Mr. Pink in Quentin Tarantino’s film “Reservoir Dogs,” and then her rebellious, nonconformist spirit took her to the top of the pop charts and the pinnacle of world stages, where she’s known to deliver power vocals and breathtaking aerial choreography at once. She was born when Mars was in maternal Cancer and has four luminaries in meticulous Virgo. Add the fiery unpredictability of an Aries moon to the mix and lucky planet Jupiter in Leo, in the sign of entertainment.
