You're being super honest about something you've had your heart stuck on for so long. It's not that it's been impossible, but you realize you are better off focusing on what you have, not what you don't. You've had this crazy dream for quite some time, but now it's becoming a distraction.

On Friday, you admit this feeling aloud. The secret loses its power the moment you come clean. There's been a lot of pent-up anxiety building behind the what-if. You stop fantasizing about what will never be and live your life now.

You're one of those people who love trying new things. You're almost always willing to try an adventure even if it's just to say you did it once. There's a thing you've been asked to do, but the truth is you don't want to do it anymore. You said yes at first, but now you've changed your mind. 

Something great happens on August 21. You get an out, and you take it. It's as though the universe heard your mind saying, over and over again, that you wish that person would cancel. You're not really interested in being the person who lets others down, and when things fall apart, it's life coming back together for you.

Gemini, you've wanted to have a deeply personal conversation with a partner. It doesn't have to be intensely about your relationship, but just to know that you can confide in each other and share your dreams. It's always so difficult to get them to open up. 

It's like trying to crack a nut! Their reluctance to share has bothered you a lot and left you feeling like you're the only one being transparent. On August 21, things start to change, and you don't know why. It doesn't matter. It's happened, and you feel great.

Aquarius, you have this big dream of being free from anything that restricts your freedom in the future. One wish you've carried in your heart is to have a business or a side gig that makes good money. 

You have a friendship that could be so much more, like a business opportunity. On Friday, you decide to bring up the ideas you've previously thought about in conversation. They seem intrigued, even if they're not ready to commit right now. You talk about what things could be like and consider all the benefits. It's a great start to what could be a promising partnership.
