Daily Horoscope Sunday August 14



Aries  March 21-April 19 Although you could use a day of rest you may find yourself involved with young people--coordinating outside activities, advising, etc. If you try to have authority over these young people, you may find yourself working at odds with them. This is more of a time of play than guidance; however, play can be used to guide. You may find yourself reflecting on your own youth or some event from your past. Communication with these young people may be difficult or combative if you do not take part in the activities as well. You have a stick-to-it attitude that always finds you in the thick of things, toughing it out, so to speak. Find time in the afternoon to be by yourself for a time of relaxation. This evening should bring opportunities for love.



Virgo  August 23-September 22 Religion or spiritual matters, relationships, music and creative projects will keep you busy today. The world is a sacred place to you and you have an absolute commitment to spiritual ideas. Intuition is a fact of life and you are sensitive, kind and gentle, a romantic too--with a tender heart. You always work for a real future, doing what has to be done. You love all that is musical and artistic. You have sensitivity to all that is psychic. You have real faith in life. Capture-the-moment is your attitude and you live in the fullest way possible. This evening is a good time to relax with loved ones. Perhaps a quiet walk or a dinner outside your living area will give you opportunities to come face to face with each other in a positive atmosphere. Romance is possible.



Taurus  April 20-May 20 Your home and surroundings are tidy and air-tight. You have done some wonderful work on your living quarters and if you were thinking about a move, you might decide to reassess that idea. You have just reached the comfort zone. You usually keep your feelings and emotions to yourself. However, today you may find yourself in such a safe place that it is easy to communicate and be helped, as well as help others. You may be attending a lecture or a fair this evening. You learn the art of aromatherapy and a few other talents that promote relaxation. All that is mystical and transcendental is your appointed territory--spiritual in the best sense of that word. You feel at home in these realms. Poetry, art or music is part of your activities today.



Gemini  May 21-June 21 There is a spiritual or psychological insight of the first order today. New and fresh viewpoints into the social scene and mass psychology are available now--intense light. Your attitude today is that a good way to understand or know what is going on is to become a part of it. There is a chance to understand those around you and to have a special time with someone you love. A real healing can happen today. General good feelings and a sense of support and harmony make this a happy time. The whole family, or perhaps just your loved one, will enjoy getting away from routine with you and doing something completely different for a change. This is a great time to reflect and understand your own situation--you are appreciative of the people in your life.



Cancer  June 22-July 22 You are in a good position to communicate with groups and society. Your home environment, friends and surroundings in general have your attention. With the chores out of the way, you can become very motivated to communicate: phone, voice, letters, computers, etc. You may find yourself wanting to catch up on the lives of your loved ones as well. You may enjoy reading and can tell a great story yourself. Consider the art of writing and try your hand at a short story. There is a relentless drive to pursue knowledge and a library or a literary club holds a special fascination for you now. While working with young people in some fun activity, you are able to teach and have them listen. You are also able to gain insight and new ideas from these youths.



Leo  July 23-August 22 Being with friends and family in some fun or spiritual activity is looked forward to today. Today makes for a deepening of relationships, plus that added feeling of security and belonging. Later today there is time to prepare for the week ahead. Any chronic health problems need to be studied--perhaps a trip to a health food store is in order. Allergy problems may be part of this need to understand and perhaps, make changes in your eating habits. You tend to be radical when it comes to self-analysis, which means health care, food, physical well-being, etc. Serving and caring for yourself and others are primary sources of inner growth and changes. Quick answers, great wit and a surplus of insights and solutions are available this evening.



Libra  September 23-October 23 You may find yourself surrounded by friends and young people and having a good time. You appreciate your particular situation and enjoy support from those around you. Sympathy and understanding are emotional qualities that take on a greater importance now. It's wisdom, not knowledge that counts now. Coming to grips with the past or getting in touch with the spiritual gives a sense of satisfaction and completeness. This evening you may be helping a relative or friend by babysitting. You have great creative imagination, perhaps a strong sense for the dramatic and the ability to express ideas of a mystical or other-worldly flavor. Entertaining children with enchanting stories is indicated this evening.



Scorpio  October 24-November 21 You may appear very at-ease today. Everything seems to be working together and you may find yourself expressive and able to commune with others in the best way possible. You are very skilled at creating a positive change and improving existing circumstances. You will seek to understand and improve situations in the home surroundings today, finding new but secure ways to better conditions. Inventions and discoveries in communications, computers and electronics may be possible. Perhaps you have a new computer, exercise machine or cooking tool. You bring incentive to areas where new development or improvement is taking place. You can teach and help others to improve their life. This is a good day with much incentive to better health.



Sagittarius  November 22-December 21 This will be a time of introspection and you may find yourself letting go of plans and projects started in a more outward phase. You may also take an interest in your own psyche, religion and spiritual ideas. You find new ways to relate to your loved one at this time. You are learning tolerance and are becoming accepting of differences. You have good insights into a need for better communication. You will simplify, compromise in situations where problem solving is necessary. There is an opportunity for a social affair this afternoon with positive communication among friends, neighbors and relatives. Take the opportunity this evening to relax and enjoy a loved one's company, play with a hobby or catch up on your reading.




Capricorn  December 22-January 19 Insights into your deeper, more spiritual nature are available to you at this time. You may be able to discover whole new areas of your psyche that have previously been closed. When you love, you love with energy and passion. You value personal contact, cutting through all the externals and getting to the heart of things. You understand and appreciate vulnerability and have no compunction about presenting your own sensitive spots to others. Your love of family and home and lack of interest in external affairs, friends or work-related situations need a balance. A lot of personal and sensitive psychological material may be surfacing soon, but you can handle it and turn it to your advantage. You may look back on these months as very transforming.



Aquarius  January 20-February 18 Visiting with neighbors and catching up on weekend chores and enjoying fun times with young people make up most of this day. The afternoon presents a good time to get into reading some of a book or news or take in a movie. Ideas will have greater meaning and form. You may be encouraged to try your hand at or help with some creative project later today. You can appreciate an imaginative approach and may value some shared ideas. Refinement and relationships are the keys to emotional satisfaction now. Close personal ties to other people are a focal point for your feelings--marriage and other partnerships could be a key arena for this. You are encouraged to help improve or to build upon a love relationship this evening.



Pisces  February 19-March 20 A love relationship can blossom now if you are willing for this person to move closer to you. A balance of give and take situations may be an important issue that needs your attention. Convening with your higher power may consist of sitting under the big oak tree in the park. Some alone time is enjoyed and that might take the form of feeding the ducks, a picnic lunch, people watching, etc. Remember what they say about Jack being a dull boy--too much work! This is just one of those great days, even if it is raining. There is time to stop and be thankful for all that you have. The best magic is what happens to your spirit when you meditate in solitude within nature's arms. The power that surrounds us at those times is great beyond understanding.

Indian Actor Johnny Lever 1956


John Prakasa Rao Janumala famously known as Johnny Lever (Hindi: जॉनी लीवर; born 14 August 1956, in Ossalapalle, Prakasam District, Andhra Pradesh) is an Indian film actor and comedian. He was born to Prakash Rao Janumala and Karunamma Janumala and brought up in Mumbai. He started his career in 1984 and has acted in over 350 Bollywood films. He has received 13 Filmfare awards nominations in Best Comedian Category and has won the award twice.

Johnny Lever was born in a Telugu Christian family and was brought up in Mumbai in King's Circle, Dharavi. Johnny studied in Andhra Telugu School till the seventh grade but couldn't study further because of financial problems in his family. After which he decided to leave school and started working at a very young age. He did all kinds of work, for example selling pens on the streets of Bombay in a special way of imitating Bollywood stars. He also danced on the songs of Bollywood stars. Hence he developed a passion for mimicry and stand-up comedy, inspired by watching comedians like Johnny Walker, Kishore Kumar and Mehmood in films and mimicry artists like Dinesh Hingoo on stage. He then decided to be a mimicry artist. To seek guidance and help regarding mimicry he met his mentor Pratap Jani and mimicry artist Ram Kumar, who helped him and taught him the basics of mimicry.

Johnny also used to work as an employee in Hindustan Lever's factory in Mumbai with his father. While working he also used to entertain his co-workers in the factory by imitating Elvis Presley. At one of the functions at his factory he was asked to perform and show his talent. So impressed were his colleagues and officers of the factory by his performance that his union leader said that from now on we will call him "Johnny Lever".

After that, he started to perform in musical shows (orchestras) and after becoming famous there, he then joined the legendary music director duo Kalyanji-Anandji's group. He did a lot of shows and world tours with them, one of his first big tours was with Amitabh Bachchan in 1982.

Since he became an instant hit at orchestras and he wasnt being able to find time; there evolved another comedian who substituted him by the name of Johnny Fever. But his fame was shorlived as Raju Srivastav came to Mumbai during the same time and started filling gaps of Johnny Lever at orchestras.

During this period he learned a lot from Kalyanji who according to Lever was also a great philosopher and a very humorous person, and also his mentor. At one of his shows Sunil Dutt noticed his talent and potential and offered him his first movie Dard Ka Rishta.

In the 1980s he released his audio cassette of mimicry/comedy, Hansee Ke Hungame, which became a super hit not only in India, but worldwide, after which he became very famous and this took him to another level. In early eighties he also did few commercials of Kachua chhap macchar agar batti which was directed by Shekhar Kapoor.

In 1986, he performed in a very big charity show called "Hope 86" in front of the whole Hindi film industry as a filler. The audience loved his performance and shouted once more. The whole film industry recognized his talent and producer Gul Anand offered him a film called Jalwa with Naseeruddin Shah. He is known as the king of comedy in Bollywood and known to have inspired many comedians and stand-up artists in India.
