 August for Leo
July 23rd - Aug 23rd
This is the month where you make your mark and can be most effective to bring about satisfaction and change in your life. You have been working steadily towards this but haven't seen as much success as you would like. But Jupiter is still giving you a boost and it's important to be open minded and not be constrained by limited thinking. After the 24th you are likely to be better off as a result of your work at the start of the month. Cultivate interesting contacts with new people. |
 August for Virgo
Aug 24th - Sept 22nd
While you may be in two minds initially and feel under pressure to make a commitment, bid your time and do things your own way. Both Venus and Mercury are in your sign now and these two give you the power of persuasion and the ability to make the complex simple. You are acting as something of a go between just now, either with friends or family. It may feel as though you are going unnoticed but this is not the case. The Sun moves into your sign after the 24th and at last you get to where you were headed at the start of August. |
 August for Libra
Sept 22nd - Oct 23rd
There is no getting away from the intensity and the drama that is playing out this month and right at the start you are facing important decisions and life choices. Mars is in your sign for the whole of August, and this can empower you, give you courage and the ability to take on what you wouldn't have dreamt of before, with dazzling consequences. It's a good time for starting new ventures and taking the initiative and your natural leadership qualities inspire others upwards and onwards. |
 August for Scorpio
Oct24th - Nov22nd
The first week of this month is helpful concerning your life path and career direction so make the most of opportunities here and have the confidence to apply for something that initially seems out of your league. It's by taking a leap of faith that you get to do what you always wanted to do but didn't think you could. Your ruler, Pluto, is in a challenging position early on so be prepared for the unexpected. this tends to ease as the month continues and the Full Moon on the 24th marks a turning point and a culmination of something dear to your heart. |
 August for Sagittarius
Nov 23rd - Dec 21st
While you maybe dealing with situations you hadn't planned for this month, unexpected benefits indicate that the unexpected can bring its own rewards through synchronicity. Your ruler, Jupiter, is briefly in your fellow fire sign of Aries and you get a taster of things to come but the main event is not here yet. Meanwhile continue to cultivate areas of enjoyment and what gives life meaning. It's too easy to be focused on simply working hard and getting by. You need plenty of stimulation and variety. |
 August for Capricorn
Dec 22nd - Jan 19th
You are looking back a little and taking stock of what the year has brought so far, and there have been one or two stunning successes and interesting adventures. If there haven't been enough in your opinion, then this month a little reinvention paves the way for more of what you want but it doesn't happen automatically. Something has to give and while you may be letting go with one hand, you are definitely gaining with the other. It's down to your own initiative, however, but you do get some surprising support from elsewhere too. |
 August for Aquarius
Jan 20th - Feb 18th
Saturn's move into Libra can be surprisingly helpful for your endeavours and will continue to be so for some time to come. It's true that you are dealing with all sorts of other issues just now, some of which cannot be helped but need to be accepted, but you are encouraged to spread your wings and fly a little. Nothing happens over night but keep your visions of what could be clear in your mind as the right attitude is the fuel for your dreams. This month favours partnerships too and it's a good time for Aquarians to make a commitment. |
 August for Pisces
Feb 19th - March 20th
Although Uranus, planet of change, has briefly left your sign, it is back again until next year. Still you may have had a brief insight into what is possible and there are changes in your financial situation. You want more worth in your life and can be downsizing to gain in other ways that matter. For now, you are intensely practical and you are working out the logistics of doing what you need to do, rather than getting caught up in idling thinking about it. This month is about taking action at last. |
 August for Aries
March 21st - April 19th
How you handle yourself this month depends a lot of what you decide at the outset. There are some challenges and hurdles as your ruler Mars, gets up close and personal to Saturn, showing you exactly where you are blocked and narrowing your options. Still, this allows you to be unusually focused and the potential for success is great, as long as you are clear about what you want. Underneath there is an element of finding your passion and following this and at least you know what you don't want. |
 August for Taurus
April 19th - May 20th
This month your family set up is under the spotlight; you could be reconnecting with people you haven't seen for awhile and you naturally gravitate to those who are trustworthy and familiar. There is a lot to be said with the comfort and security of the predictable. There is a reason for this as your working situation could be changing and you need to get trusted advice about how this will turn out for you. Jupiter in your twelfth house has you seeking the truth on a deeper and more spiritual level. |
 August for Gemini
May 21st - June 21st
While you are deeply fascinated as events this month unfold in the world at large, for you this is an opportunity for learning and discovering fresh insights. Chances are you will meet people who can offer some exciting information that could lead you to pastures new and you are going through a kind of reinvention process. Make a note of the New Moon on the 10th to be the starting point. Later this month, from around the 23rd, turn your attention to establishing a routine and find a better work life balance. |
 August for Cancer
June 22nd - July 22nd
This month your focus is on values - what you value, your money situation and more importantly, how you value yourself. If you need to give yourself a boost then go for it, particularly at the start of the August. You are juggling quite complex issues and it's easy to lose sight of what's really important with the demands of others. The New Moon on the 10th is the start of something which will be much better for you, so perhaps a new job or income stream. Take note of your intuition on the 24th at the time of the Full Moon. |
