Horoscope
for Today
Friday, August 14, 2026
This is a great marathon day -- but not a great day for sprinting. In any situation where endurance is required, you will be a star! You have a ton of stamina right now, and you are really going to enjoy going for the long haul. Extend your gym workout if you can, because it's going to leave you feeling better than ever. You enjoy pushing yourself to the limit right now, and proving to yourself that you are really capable of amazing things. You don't know your own strength -- so go out and discover it!
Weekly Love Horoscope
for Cancer
Week of Mon, 8/10 to Sun, 8/16
On Monday, it's the combination of smarts and feelings that make for good romantic choices, rather than letting one or the other prevail. Step back and see what you're missing. A great date around Tuesday and Wednesday involves learning -- yes, with you along, it can definitely be hot. Try a new recipe, take an online lecture, or warm up the brain with a documentary or two. Duty calls at the end of the workweek. Take care of responsibilities, because this weekend's got opportunities galore, including some lovely romantic ones.

The Moon's Influence
Lunar Sign: Virgo
The planet Mercury rules over both Virgo and Gemini. While the Moon is in Virgo, intellectual pursuits are called for, but those adept in detail-oriented tasks will hold sway over those with an aptitude for creativity. Now is a good time for taking care of any matter which requires painstaking attention. With the Moon passing through Virgo, people may become shy and retiring, and will tend to be discriminating, judgmental, and even overly critical at times. These influences lead to a concern about food and health, and many will feel the urge to clean up their homes at this time. Virgo rules the intestines and the powers of assimilation.
Lunar Phase: New Moon
If you’ve been waiting for an opportunity, this is it! Now is the time, during the New Moon Phase, to create new beginnings. For the first 48 hours following the exact time of the New Moon each month, a window opens for making wishes that, if visualized and taken action upon, will materialize in the days and months ahead. There is a tremendous amount of enthusiasm in the atmosphere and a feeling of rebirth. Move forward powerfully, and initiate projects that you feel instinctively attracted to. Follow your impulses and allow yourself to go outside your comfort zone.
