MOON ALERT: Avoid shopping or making decisions after 6 p.m. today. The moon is in Pisces.

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

Be patient with others today, especially partners and close friends because it’s easy to suddenly get in to a power struggle.What’s the point? When the annals of history are written in the future, will any of this matter? (I thought so.)

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

You might want to introduce reforms to your job or to anything you do today. (This might apply to your health.) This isbecause you see a better way of doing things. Naturally, this could lead to an argument with someone. Easy does it.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

Parents might come on too strong with their kids today. Take a step back and view the whole picture. Is it worth making a bigscene about this? The result could be hissy fits and meltdowns. Take it easy.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

Arguments and ego battles at home might take place, especially with a parent or an older family member. But what will thisgain you? Family is forever and this kind of dissension probably has no upside. Don’t get sucked into this game.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)

You are determined to convince others to agree with your way of thinking today. In fact, you might be persuasive! But is it soimportant others listen to you? Don’t get your belly in a rash. Take the high road and let go of the reins.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Power struggles about money or possessions are likely today. These could become intense because people are sensitive aboutfinancial matters and anything they own. Don’t try to change somebody’s mind if it’s already made up.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Today the way you live might be tested by powerful forces from without and within! For example, you might have to contendwith someone in authority. They might make you account for yourself. (Oy!) This is also the classic day for a breakdown ofmachinery or stuff you own.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Some secrets might come out today and the secrets might be about you. (Eeek!) You might have to explain something, or showpeople why you did or did not do something. Tread carefully and don’t say anything you might later regret. Once the wordsare out of your mouth, they can never come back.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

A power struggle with a friend or a member of a group might arise today. You might want to introduce improvements orchange. Or perhaps, they want you to make radical changes, especially if they think certain areas of your life are not workingout well.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

This is a poor day to challenge bosses, parents, teachers and the police because you will get caught up in a power struggle.Unfortunately, this is the kind of power struggle where you will lose or end up with egg on your face

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

Avoid controversial subjects like politics, religion and racial issues today because this is the classic day for arguments,disputes and overbearing discussions. However, it might be the right time to let go of old ideas and prejudices.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)

You might have to give up something today. Perhaps the reason for this is you need to give up something that isn’t workingout. Maybe you have to take a realistic look at things to say this? Remember — your first loss is your cheapest loss.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY

Rapper, songwriter Eminem (1972) shares your birthday. You are confident, resilient and at times, daring and defiant. You arealso self-disciplined and an excellent strategist. You have strong ideals and strong emotions. Your personal freedom will beimportant to you this year, which is why you might undergo some major changes. Don’t hesitate to explore new opportunities.Grab every chance to travel and expand your world.

Missing pet tortoise found at Oak Hammock Marsh

Zoe Pierce 3 minute read Yesterday at 6:58 PM CDT

They were somewhat shell-shocked.

Nobody at Oak Hammock Marsh expected to find an African spurred tortoise wandering through the wetlands. Least of all one that had travelled more than 20 kilometres from home to get there.

But after being missing for two weeks, Molly, a 15-year-old pet tortoise, was discovered tromping around the marsh.

At first, staff thought there had been a case of mistaken identity after visitors started reporting sightings of the animal.

Erik Pindera 5 minute read Updated: Yesterday at 6:40 PM CDT

A city councillor charged with sex assault earlier this year faces new sex charges in a separate incident, in a case Winnipeg’s mayor called “deeply concerning.”

Transcona Coun. Russ Wyatt, 56, was charged Monday with sexual assault and administering a noxious thing with intent to aggrieve or annoy over an October 2023 incident.

Allegations of a 2023 assault were reported to the Winnipeg Police Service in April, a month after Wyatt was charged with sex assault in relation to a 2025 incident.

In the 2023 incident, a man told police he become acquainted with Wyatt through a website in July of that year and said they met in person on more than one occasion.

Fun drop-in last chance to mentor grads of inner-city school with excellent track record

Maggie Macintosh 5 minute read 2:00 AM CDT

Summer break may be in full swing, but Gonzaga Middle School invited graduates back to the building for water balloon fights and academic, employment and support services this week.

Roughly 30 alumni, including teenagers and twentysomethings, stopped by the grades 6-8 school in North Point Douglas on Tuesday afternoon. They were greeted with slime-making kits, ice cream sundaes and staff ready to answer questions.

The initiative — the final grad drop-in organized this summer — is a new extension of the mentorship and holistic programming baked into the funded independent school’s mandate.

“We have 22- and 23-year-olds coming back and checking in and asking for help on their university papers,” principal Rex Ferguson-Baird said.

The circle of life — garden-sized

5 minute read 2:00 AM CDT

“The lesson I have thoroughly learnt, and wish to pass on to others, is to know the enduring happiness that the love of a garden gives.” — Gertrude Jekyll (1843-1932), horticulturalist

It’s a chilly day for August — more like fall — but in the garden things are progressing as nicely as if every day this summer had been the perfect combination of sun and showers.

The peonies are spent, their heavy heads with a hangdog look. Soon the petals will fall, revealing the jester-hat seedpods within. The lilacs, too, their beautiful, fragrant blossoms now transformed into brown scruff.

But the day lilies are plumping up, ready for their big reveal. And the roses are still magnificent — dozens and dozens of fuchsia, red, white and coral blooms that turn our stone circle into a heavenly scented bower. It is here where we come after a hard day’s work in the garden, newly scrubbed and wearing fresh clothes, to sit at a little bistro table and have a glass of wine and enjoy the results of our labour.
