Your daily horoscope: July 31, 2024

HOROSCOPES IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY

No one flies higher than Leo and what you focus on next will boost your reputation for creativity and courage to even more impressive levels. If you’ve got what it takes – and you most certainly do – then you can have it all over the next 12 months.

ARIES (March 21 – April 20):

You could find yourself in a potentially explosive situation today and you must stay calm and refuse to be provoked by people who want to see you lose your temper. Look for practical ways to bring people together so your differences no longer matter.

TAURUS (April 21 – May 21):

Keep your eye on the big picture today and let other people take care of the nuts and bolts. Uranus in your birth sign means you have the ability to look beyond the obvious and come up with solutions that no one else has the vision to see.

GEMINI (May 22 – June 21):

It’s clear that you have become addicted to a pattern of behaviour that is not good for you. Identify what it is and then do something about it. Start by breaking free of a routine that is holding you back rather than holding you up.

CANCER (June 22 – July 23):

Aim for your highest ideal and don’t give up on it just because some of the people you live and work with cannot see the point. The fact that it means something to you is the only thing that matters. You won’t be happy unless you follow your dream.

LEO (July 24 – Aug. 23):

Watch your back on the work front today because some of your colleagues are not happy that you are getting all the praise and attention and will be looking for ways to bring you down a peg or two. Don’t make it easy for them by doing something silly.

VIRGO (Aug. 24 – Sept. 23):

The more certain people go out of their way to ridicule your ideas and find fault with your actions the more you will realize that you are on the right track. Ignore what they say and carry on as before. You’re not far from your goal now.

Missed one of your horoscopes? Here are the most recent days’ forecasts:

You feel alive and full of beans again and that’s just as well because there are some big opportunities coming your way and you need to be in the right frame of mind to take advantage of them. Your can-do attitude will take you far.

LIBRA (Sept. 24 – Oct. 23):

If you have the courage to strike out in a new direction between now and the weekend you will be amazed by how much progress you make. The critics may say you are heading for disaster but you are in fact heading for a major success.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24 – Nov. 22):

You seem to have got it into your head that if you make even the smallest mistake it could go badly for you. More likely by far is that you have allowed your imagination to get the better of you, so stop fretting and live without fear.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 – Dec. 21):

Wherever you go and whatever you do today others will open doors and offer you favours. Which is all very nice but it’s unlikely they will be doing these things out of the goodness of their hearts. What might they want from you in return?

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 – Jan. 20):

The more you try to convince someone that you know what you are doing the more they will attempt to interfere. This is one of those occasions when you have no choice but to tell them in no uncertain fashion to mind their own business!

AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 – Feb. 19):

You can afford to take a few risks over the next 24 hours, even if it appears that the odds are against you. The universe owes you a favour or two and will see to it that you don’t come to any great harm. Don’t be too reckless though.
