Your daily horoscopes for Thursday August 15, 2024
Aries (March 21-April 19) daily horoscope for Thursday August 15
Don’t fight your feelings, Aries! Under today’s clash between speedy Mars and cautious Saturn, it will be hard to stem the emotional tide that rushes in. However, you could quickly get overwhelmed by it all, so catch yourself if you start obsessing. Free yourself from that anxious loop and don’t get sucked in further. Engage in activities that allow you to tap into your spiritual side. Dive into an extended journaling session, book a session with a gifted healer or call up a good friend to talk about what you’re going through.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) daily horoscope for Thursday August 15
What’s with all the drama, Bull? Your inner circle could start to feel worthy of a reality show as stern Saturn in your collaboration sector clashes with irascible Mars. If conflict erupts among your professional team or friend group, stop yourself before shifting into dictator mode. People will start to resent you if you steamroll them. Instead of shutting down communication, why not open up a dialogue? It’s possible that this could all be fixed with a big group brainstorming session (dinner and drinks optional). Empower others to speak up, and your crew could have a breakthrough instead of a meltdown.
Gemini (May 21-June 20) daily horoscope for Thursday August 15
Your ego is NOT your amigo today as arrogant Mars in Gemini clashes with humble Saturn in your tenth house of career. In your quest to push your own projects ahead, you could alienate some key allies. Don’t assume the people who are slower to get on board won’t support you, Bull. In fact, they might turn into your biggest champions if you give them a fair chance to catch up. That said, don’t let an overly skeptical or threatened person with a “fixed mindset” derail your mission. Keep things moving forward, even if it’s at a slightly slower pace.
Cancer (June 21-July 22) daily horoscope for Thursday August 15
Leo (July 23-August 22) daily horoscope for Thursday August 15
Clashing for control? Power is up for grabs today as potent Mars in your teamwork sector brawls with protective Saturn in your possessive eighth house. Someone could be attempting to undermine you behind the scenes or manipulate things for their own gain. Don’t play into their political games! If you sense that a colleague’s behavior is a bit sketchy, steer clear. With some healthy boundaries, you can avoid getting sucked into unnecessary drama.

Virgo (August 23-September 22) daily horoscope for Thursday August 15
Faced with a difficult choice, Virgo? Slow down. Temper the urge to rush any major decisions today as fiery Mars in your professional sector brawls with careful Saturn in your partnership zone. It’s important to be strategic about major career moves, and this murky transit may temporarily cloud your judgment. If you’re on the fence, it might be best to delay any official commitments until later in the week—or even the end of the month, after Mercury retrograde ends. In the meantime, do your research. Make sure you’re 100 percent happy with the terms of any contract before signing on the dotted line!
Libra (September 23-October 22) daily horoscope for Thursday August 15
Thrown off track, Libra? Unexpected setbacks could get your blood boiling today as structured Saturn in your fastidious sixth house clashes with impatient Mars. Deep breaths! Though you may feel the urge to force progress, cutting corners could get you in even deeper trouble. Power down instead of powering through. Taking a moment to re-strategize is essential to saving this venture. An innovative troubleshooting session could be the perfect way to get back on your game.
Scorpio (October 23-November 21) daily horoscope for Thursday August 15
What’s the rush, Scorpio? You may feel the impulse to speed into emotionally intimate territory with a loved one today. But the stars warn against overdoing it as passionate Mars forms a cautionary square with restrictive Saturn. If you’re forging a new relationship, take it slow! You want to make sure this is a good match before getting too invested or telling them your entire life story. The same thing goes for committed Scorpios. Don’t rush into that “next big step” before you’re both ready. When in doubt, talk it out.
Sagittarius (November 22-December 21) daily horoscope for Thursday August 15
If you’re navigating tricky territory with someone in your orbit, tread carefully. Negotiations could get tense today as Mars in your diplomatic seventh house forms a tense square with hard-to-please Saturn. Under these fiery skies, common ground may feel like it’s a million miles away. Patience, Sag! Enter any deliberations with an open mind and a willingness to compromise. Tackle the smaller issues before you move on to the major points of contention. With a little give and take, both parties should be able to hammer out terms that make them happy!

Capricorn (December 22-January 19) daily horoscope for Thursday August 15
A rock-solid strategy is essential for success today as powerful Mars in your detailed sixth house clashes with ultra-organized Saturn, your cosmic ruler. Even if you’re eager to hit the ground running, your entire project could crash and burn without a firm plan in place. Take all the time you need during this crucial developmental stage. By building a strong foundation now, you’ll ensure your future victory. This is a marathon, not a sprint. Luckily, your sign is a pro at playing the long game!

Aquarius (January 20-February 18) daily horoscope for Thursday August 15
Good luck taming your passionate side today while fierce Mars burns bright in Gemini and your flamboyant fifth house. But a rough 90-degree square from Saturn flips on the warning light. How much are you willing to spend, risk or gamble here? What you add to your cart—and who you invite into your life—could have far-reaching consequences. Enjoy your attraction to shiny objects and seductive people, but maybe just savor a moment instead of taking anything home with you.
Pisces (February 19-March 20) daily horoscope for Thursday August 15
Squabbling with your squad? Feuding with the fam? A certain pot-stirrer may be churning up conflict within your crew today as structured Saturn in your sign brawls with stubborn Mars in your foundational fourth house. Can’t reason with this hot-headed person? It may be best to delay any confrontations until everyone has had a chance to cool off. In the meanwhile, steer clear of triggering situations. A little “me time” could be just the thing to restore your spirit.
