Horoscope today, August 2, 2024: Daily star sign guide from Mystic Meg

OUR much-loved astrologer Meg sadly died last year but her column will be kept alive by her friend and protégée Maggie Innes.

Read on to see what’s written in the stars for you today.

ARIES

March 21 to April 20

Growth and abundance are key themes of your chart and someone who loves to garden, even on a small scale, can be a solid link to luck.

Your creative sunshine can spread through so many lives when you put other people first.

Plus, you find a volunteer role that meets so many hidden needs in your heart.

TAURUS

April 21 to May 21

Jupiter’s presence may feel low-key, but behind the scenes luck is being directed your way.

Play your part by being extra-alert all day, to even the smallest money-making chances – and smart ways to maximise the earning power of your home, or family history.

Love may be ready to settle but are you?

GEMINI

May 22 to June 21

You’re such a flexible and forgiving sign but this is a day to fix firmer boundaries.

At work, you have ideas that a boss could use but be sure to build a role for yourself into any future.

At home, the way you are there for others is such a plus for them, but can be a minus for your energy. Do try to save some time for yourself.

CANCER

June 22 to July 22

The sun’s heat helps you power through a set of figures and shine a light on why you may be paying more than you should.

You can deal with this in positive ways.

As for love, empty your heart of past mistakes when you consider a present relationship – and you can see its true passion potential so clearly.

Confidence is your natural state and the thing other people admire in you.
