NYPost Daily Horoscope for Wednesday, August 17, 2022

***** Today's Birthday Horoscope *****
Your No. 1 aim over the coming year must be to break the mental and emotional
hold that certain people have over you. It's time to assert your right to make
your own decisions so you can start following your own path through life.
Start today!

**** Aquarius ****
January 20 - February 18
A relationship of some sort has reached a turning point and now you must make
a difficult choice. Don't make it on the basis of what others expect of you,
make it on the basis of what is most likely to make you happy in the years
ahead.

**** Pisces ****
February 19 - March 20
The planets warn there is a danger you could get bogged down in petty details
and lose sight of the bigger picture. From an everyday perspective things may
not look too great at the moment, but from a more elevated viewpoint
everything is perfect.

**** Aries ****
March 21 - April 19
It's not often you are too cautious for your own good but the influence of
Neptune in the most sensitive area of your chart could hold you back a bit
today. You surely know that the only thing to fear is fear itself, so push
ahead regardless.

**** Taurus ****
April 20 - May 20
A situation that may be personally painful must be dealt with and it must be
dealt with right away. The planets warn that the only way to resolve it is to
be ruthless. Your opinions and your way of working are the only things that
matter.

**** Gemini ****
May 21 - June 20
You may have a healthy respect for authority but there are times when you must
stand up to those who appear to be abusing their position and such a time is
now. Find ways to remind them that power and responsibility go hand in hand.

**** Cancer ****
June 21 - July 22
If you get a chance to sort out a money or business problem of some kind today
that's great, but don't lose sight of the fact that some of the people you are
dealing with have been somewhat slippery in their approach. Don't give your
trust too easily.

**** Leo ****
July 23 - August 22
The Sun in your sign gives you no end of energy and enthusiasm but other
influences warn if you take unnecessary risks today you could pay for it where
it really hurts, in your wallet! Why do you feel the need to impress people?
Let them impress you.

**** Virgo ****
August 23 - September 22
A nagging doubt has been gnawing away at the back of your mind for quite some
time and what occurs over the next 24 hours will confirm you were right to be
worried. The bottom line is you may have to terminate a long-term partnership.

**** Libra ****
September 23 - October 22
At some point today you will need to make sure others know you are not the
sort of person whose friendship can be taken for granted. You must show zero
tolerance when dealing with people who care only about getting rich at your
expense.

**** Scorpio ****
October 23 - November 21
The message of the stars today is that you should forget about trying to
impress employers and other authority figures and do only what feels right to
you personally. They will think more of you if you demonstrate a touch of
individuality.

**** Sagittarius ****
November 22 - December 21
You may not be in the mood to work with other people today but you must make
an effort, not least because what they do is sure to reflect on you in some
way. Take charge and make sure what you do together is worthy of your name.

**** Capricorn ****
December 22 - January 19
You seem to have an unhealthy obsession with something that, the more you
think about it, the worse it makes you feel. Whatever that something is you
need to get past it once and for all. There are so many better things you
could be focusing on.
