August 4 Zodiac Birthday Signs – Generous and broad-minded, you have a universal perspective, though a preoccupation with material concerns frequently limits your humanitarian inclinations. As a Leo, you are creative and magnanimous, with practical skills and powers of attainment. Friendly and cheerful, you attract people and can be popular. This also indicates strong leadership potential and suggests that you do not like to be in a subservient position.
The subinfluence of your decanate ruler, Sagittarius, encourages you to expand and, in combination with your optimistic outlook, inspires you to courageously take chances. When you fear the unknown, this influence can also work adversely and undermine your capability to perform record achievements. By trying to resist an inclination to be impatient and bossy, you can develop tolerance. Detachment and a balanced attitude to life will enable you to avoid many frustrations and disappointments.
Adopting a responsible outlook may inspire you to explore your true potential and become a leading specialist in your chosen field. Although you prefer to deal with the larger pic* ture, in your enthusiasm you may forget about the small but vital details. By learning to be thorough or methodical, you can enhance your prospects of success.
From childhood, you are likely to be interested in social activities and being at the center of things. From the age of eighteen onward, as your progressed Sun moves into Virgo for a thirty-year period, you gradually become more conscientious, thoughtful, reserved, and discriminating. You may be interested in becoming more efficient in your working environment. As your progressed Sun enters Libra, when you are age forty-eight, you reach a turning point. This brings a strong emphasis on your social relationships and partnerships. Your creative abilities are enhanced, and you may wish to develop any latent musical, artistic, or literary interests.
Work & Vocation
Since you are very independent and prefer to give orders rather than accept them, you are usually better in some position of authority or, if working within a group, where you have the freedom to operate in your own way. You are liable to succeed in teaching, lecturing, the theater, or running your own business. You are a good evaluator, and so the more pragmatic side of your nature may be drawn to real estate, Banking, and the stock market. Alternatively, a humanitarian streak may find expression through the healing professions or in some form of social or community work.
