Daily Horoscopes
Tuesday 1st August 2006
You may have to acts as referee: to voices inside your head. One part of you may be clinging to the past and the other hurtling toward the future. The playful (child?!) in you might be desperate for adventure whereas another part may be trying to find happiness in growing up and accepting responsibilities. Outward expression of this is possible too: an older relative could be competing for your time with a friend who's crazy but compelling.
Wednesday 2nd August 2006
'Loose lips, sink ships' was the World War 2 saying. It's as true today. Don't pass on anything until you're 100% sure it's being received in safe hands. Moreover, it might be wise to be aware that someone may be feeding on gossip - and you (both financially and emotionally). On the upside, what you learn from an expert could be extremely valuable, enabling you to talk with some authority at a meeting in a couple of days' time.
Thursday 3rd August 2006
The need to give - quietly before midday (GMT) and more openly later dominates the day. The more playful, child-like side of you could come out to play - which might be something of a turn-on to friends born under Aquarius. It could fall to you to bring together a group of people who share similar aspirations but do tend to suffer from 'crossed-wires syndrome'.
Friday 4th August 2006
The Sun and Saturn (the cosmic headmaster) are now aligned and you could feel the effect: which could be brilliant if you're involved in a formal function or if you're trying to exceed a personal best in a sport or other hobby. You could, however, come unstuck through rules and regulations and more than once might want to suggest that someone 'gets a life'.
Saturday 5th August 2006
Trawling your memory seems likely (making this a good day for sitting a test). Even finding a route around a traffic difficulty could tease your brain cells. You might also attract people who want you to show them a route: which could be anything from travel directions to how to maximise their skills. It's possible you have knowledge that could be regarded as valuable.
Sunday 6th August 2006
It might amuse you to think and play differently: teasing anyone and everyone could be the marker for your day. So, you could dress differently and engage others in conversations with a difference. In delivering what others least expect, you could also make clear that whilst you know you're committed to one obligation, your wings (and ideas) haven't been cut.
Monday 7th August 2006
It might feel as though a ton of bricks has landed at your door. Leisure time could be curbed. A twist on this is that a talent could go from amateur to professional status however. In affairs of the heart you could come to a decision which might, if you're in partnership, include agreeing to nurture a project together.
Tuesday 8th August 2006
A family voice from the past (possibly someone who's been away travelling or studying) could ignite an ambition. This might lead to discussions with a Virgo and a Scorpio as to which strategies you could employ to get you to where you want to be. A Capricorn could be, so, so impressed with your focus.
Wednesday 9th August 2006
Friends could pull you in different directions. On top of that, language or transport difficulty could give rise to tension. It's possible that within this mayhem though you'll reach deeper understanding with someone who tends to be fussy. This person might need you to act as mediator.
Thursday 10th August 2006
This could be another of those days when you need to make a fashion statement. You might also find you attract unusual attention from Aquarians and Pisceans. The power of music could be felt too. However, nothing may be more important than viewing the world from a different perspective. Being near water could activate memory and imagination and release powerful creative urges.
Friday 11th August 2006
On the surface, fashion and style may seem to be the big themes. Illusions could affect in other ways though: a friend's behaviour could be either confusing or dishonourable. You might be asked to cover for them. Truth could become a big issue. You might be left wondering who wrote something - and what assistance they had.
Saturday 12th August 2006
Though you may know it will unsettle someone, you might still need to articulate what really pleases you. Indeed, the difference between what you want, need and enjoy, could affect a relationship which might have been in danger of stagnating:- but not now. You're likely to be ready to make the Earth move and to use shock tactics if necessary.
Sunday 13th August 2006
Both the child and creative genius within could surface. At one level this could draw you to materials and fashions that are out of the ordinary but which you know will mix and match well with something made from a natural fibre - and which you already own. At another level, you might effect an introduction, knowing instinctively that two people will work well together.
Monday 14th August 2006
Your thinking may be way, way 'out of the box'. You might also feel the need to stand out from the crowd. So you could dress to attract. Another possibility is that you'll be attracted to people whose behaviour is unusual - even crazy. The desire to do things differently could have the silver-lining of bringing you into contact with someone who always follows their instinct and is, perhaps, a natural 'future-caster'.
Tuesday 15th August 2006
You might even feel the sensation of your batteries being recharged - probably by someone younger or who's recently finished training and/or who's just come back from travels. It's likely too that snippets of information will assist you in making conversation with people you've only just met but whom you sense could have key roles to play in your future.
Wednesday 16th August 2006
You may be amused to hear news from a friend you once studied or travelled with. Their day by day adventures could even be the basis of a short story. Another snippet on news could come your way: this time concerning a younger person whose talent you've recognised and for whom you've made a successful introduction.
Thursday 17th August 2006
It's likely that you have plenty to say. Indeed, revived by new experience and knowledge, there may be SO much you want to pass on. It's probable too that others want to hear. However, you might give away too much information (take care who you trust). At a different level entirely you may be happy to give someone the benefit of your DIY experiences. You could even offer help.
Friday 18th August 2006
Speed may be of the essence, but you'll still have to take care that you don't trip yourself up in the process of hurrying along. Carelessness could be a problem in other ways: you could give away valuable information. Surprising news from friends (probably long distant) might prompt a spontaneous gift-shopping spree.
Saturday 19th August 2006
The way someone speaks - or a word they use - could trigger a memory sequence that you feel you just have to share with someone you once studied with. A DIY project could turn into something more than initially planned. Frequent short journeys or going up and down ladders seems likely as you arrange space for someone who's presently not too mobile.
Sunday 20th August 2006
Aries people need to play: but first they need to know that all's well at home and that they have sufficient physical energy to attain the challenges they've set. Friends' needs could be draining (especially if they're either born under Virgo or are being very fussy presently). The art's likely to be in locating humour, eating well and setting goals you know can be accomplished quickly.
Monday 21st August 2006
You could hit a brick wall (so be careful if driving!). It's perhaps more likely that this will be metaphorical and that what's really happening is that you've run out of energy. You could be drained by something that arrives by mail: which needn't be bad news - but could require pause for thought. A Capricorn may have something to say about how to improve your fitness generally.
Tuesday 22nd August 2006
Perhaps because things have been so pear-shaped, the desire to spoil someone could be great. That includes you. This would be a great day for a holiday or for in some way expanding your horizons. The effect you have on someone who's usually straight-laced could be marked: with them amused by your antics and willing to join you in bringing a playful, creative element to the day.
Wednesday 23rd August 2006
As the day wears on, your ability to move out of a comfort zone increases. You might even discover you don't really believe what you thought you did. In the hours up to the New Moon, you might even ponder your administrative capabilities and decide you're better at these than you're given credit for: a point that's brought home when someone asks you for help in locating information.
Thursday 24th August 2006
Playing the role of detective is likely to suit you: not only could you work out a motive, you might also find something you weren't supposed to spot. You financial acumen's likely to be working well too. You might also be ready for a detox health-programme and/or to tease little grey cells that haven't worked for some time: which might mean reading a book that's complicated or studying to master a technical language.
Friday 25th August 2006
Expenses may be higher than usual (possibly because of a stationery order), yet you might be pleased by your efficiency. You might also be in the mood to give attention to networking and make contact with someone you haven't seen in ages and who's only now emerging from a project begun last autumn, that has necessitated considerable travel.
Saturday 26th August 2006
The display of loyalty you show a good friend is likely to anchor this relationship. True, it could be that you decide to take an oath to a group or sign a petition giving unwavering support: it's a little more likely that it will be a one-to-one partnership that benefits. Though at your sociable best (and willing to dress up for an occasion) it's your commitment to someone special that marks the day.
Sunday 27th August 2006
Finding the right balance-point could take most of the day - and perhaps even longer. Though happy to give and take with friends, you might wonder if there's danger of spreading yourself too thinly and/or your needs not being taken into account. On the other hand, in the interests of those who're presently helpless, you could delight in giving - and giving even more.
Monday 28th August 2006
Like a master-detective, your questions could become more probing as the day progresses. This investigative skill could endear you to someone who's never been 100% sure of your abilities. This is likely to have real benefits in the world of finance. It could be significant in your romantic world too. You might find the right words to ask someone a question you perhaps ought to have asked some time back.
Tuesday 29th August 2006
Like a world-wide radio receiver you could tune in to many different frequencies (actions and conversations). The art may be to focus on the really important ones. Someone who says little could tell you most about a subject. It's this person who could help you most in choosing a design or fabric. The down-side of the day could be a display of temper from someone who loses their cool all too frequently and who only manages to create disturbance and delay.
Wednesday 30th August 2006
Friends might seem to be acting strangely and/or motivated by feelings you can't understand. You might do better to engage with characters in a novel than try to understand what's going on. In one area you could be superb though: you may be on track to finding the silver lining (tomorrow) in a difficulty that's caused one friend to run out of steam entirely. Interestingly, where food and drink are concerned, you could come across a delicacy that has near medicinal effect.
Thursday 31st August 2006
The potential for you to lift a good friend out of melancholy seems great. Thanks to your instinctive understanding of the need for 'good quality play-time' to balance either over-work or even emotional exhaustion, you could 'turn the lights on' for someone. You might even do this unconsciously by suggesting someone join you and others - not realising that you're taking them out of themselves in the process.
Weekly Horoscopes
Week Beginning Sunday 6th August 2006
Weeks when the Sun and Saturn align are generally thought of as difficult. That said, they might be seen to offer the optimum moment for putting down a foundation - which is what could happen with you on Monday. Pleasure at progress is indicated for Tuesday. On Wednesday though you could hit a problem in the form of someone who's resistant to change and who, having gone along with plans, puts a spanner in the works. Not reacting to this is likely to test your patience - perhaps to the point of sending you running for cover or escaping from a scene on Thursday. The good news is that on Friday, your enthusiasm combined with your vision of how good things could be, should be more than enough to persuade someone to forgive, forget, worry less and enjoy being part of a development team.
Week Beginning Sunday 13th August 2006
Let's hope there's opportunity for you to have some time off this week: you could find regenerating easy. Indeed, with the more playful side of you keen to do its stuff, not only might you be in the mood to tune in to a new place, but you might be as quick to be part of other people's adventures. At work this could result in some excellent brain-storming. What you come up with on Monday 14th could be particularly helpful: though it's likely to involve co-operation from a group or team. Even so, the core idea could excite most people. Enthusiasm and developing ideas seem set to continue through to Thursday when you could hit a minor buffer (probably cash-related but could be that a piece of equipment isn't up to the job). It's then, and through Friday, that you might need to employ debating tactics to persuade another team that they would make good distributors for your ideas.
Week Beginning Sunday 20th August 2006
There's a topsy-turvy feel to this week that could result in disillusionment (on Monday) turning to consolidation of ideas (Friday). Before Wednesday's New Moon you might not know quite where you are. Levels of confusion seem high on all fronts (though that could be quite nice if you're flirting and playing whilst on holiday). If you're at work, it may be that others aren't, so that progress is stalled because the right people aren't around to sign off agreements. (Tuesday might even find you trying to reach people who're away and straining relations in the process). After the Virgo New Moon (23rd) though the pace is likely to change - and dramatically. Not only could you find that you've changed direction entirely, but you might also find you're working with people whose attention to detail - and general style - starts to smooth paths that have been 'lumpy' for what seems like forever. This could give you an excuse to organise (softly-softly) celebrations on Friday as you welcome someone on to a team.
Week Beginning Sunday 27th August 2006
This could be viewed as a perfect week to get away from it all. Focusing purely on the positive aspects, your imagination could fly high. The child in you is likely to come out to play quite unbidden. As early as Monday, like a designer who makes an exquisite final touch to a piece, you could effect a change that marks you out from the crowd. You're as likely to do this through verbal as much as fashion style. The art then may be to give others time to catch up with your thinking: one or two may have fallen into negative mode. Your ability to cajole others into joining a team seems prominent on Tuesday and could lead to all manner of success midweek. True, Thursday could be testing when someone (a Virgo or Pisces), finds it necessary to go back over old ground and review actions. By Friday though, you may have passed an efficiency test. It's that day too when you could find a way to make cash go further.
Weekend (Love) Horoscopes
The Weekend of Friday 4th August 2006
Unexpected twists over the next few days could result in you making a commitment by Monday. It's probable that this has been on the horizon for some time. It's possible too that you could drag issues out for another year. That seems unlikely though. Having shared a secret on Saturday - and in understanding that to get this far in a relationship means you both have vested interests in its future, you might then be ready to seize a special moment on Sunday and to discuss longer-term plans. Sure, this could be driven by changes at work. The point is that you may now be ready to set new goals: which could be of particular interest to friends born under Leo, Virgo and Capricorn - all of whom could be affected.
The Weekend of Friday 11th August 2006
You might not know quite what image you want to present to the world on Friday - which could leave you confused about your style. You might not know quite who you want to mix with either. The end result of this is that you could confuse others too. The upside is that keeping on the move (dancing or swimming) means that your form is constantly changing and you could spin a world of fantasy that feels nice. The Moon reaches your sign on Saturday: at which point you're likely to feel much happier in your skin. The upshot of all that is that you could send out direct signals and attract someone who's by then mesmerised by your various 'performances'. One person (a Virgo or a Pisces) could find you most entertaining - and compelling.
The Weekend of Friday 18th August 2006
From enjoyable networking on Friday - even if you have to shout to make your voice heard in a crowd - you could succumb to soul-searching on Saturday. You're right, you may have trodden on a nerve. It's possible that you've been carried away, and that you haven't stopped to think about the consequences for someone who prefers to play a slower (safer) game. Indeed, working out how best to both back-track off the tender spot and at the same time coax someone into thinking and feeling they can confide in you, could make for an interesting challenge. Treading carefully and showing your more sensitive side may be prerequisites to cultivating a beautiful friendship. It may be worth noting that recovering from this minor slip could take until the middle of next week when a variation of earlier passion could be experienced once more.
The Weekend of Friday 25th August 2006
Relations with people you work with look set to dominate on Friday. It may be that you've so much to discuss that this spills into after-work social activity. It might also be that it's only now that someone's coming to terms with one of your interests. They may feel you're spending more time on this 'hobby' (or romance) than you ought to - or they may be pleased at your progress in this area (it may depend on their work-play balance). With the need to look after long-term unions high on your agenda, you could spend Saturday at a formal or traditional event where the accent is on durability and staying power. Just how much it's cost someone to preserve a relationship might be brought home to you - though you could be spell-bound by the degree of someone's unconditional love. This might inspire you to take action that makes it clear exactly what you feel for someone and where your priorities are.
Monthly Horoscope
The Month of August 2006
You might remember that Saturn is presently moving through an area of your solar chart associated with speculation and romance (and anything else that causes your heart to flutter). Saturn is viewed as a hard task-master though and it's likely that you've already had your knuckles rapped (the cosmic way of saying you shouldn't dabble unless you're experienced). This first 10 days of August suggest more of these experiences. Painful as that might sound (or be), this could be a useful learning curve: you might even like to apply new-found knowledge and experience on Friday 11th. The insurance, oil and even leisure industries might seem attractive investment areas around the Full Moon (16th). A return to an old investment area on 17th could bring you quiet satisfaction (also a good day for last-minute travel purchases). With the guidance of a colleague (financial advisor), you could enter into a partnership agreement around the New Moon (23rd) that's not expected to bring reward for several months. It's new scientific developments that could part you from cash in the days leading up to Tuesday 29th (probably a good time to invest in computing equipment also). Great care may be needed during the last few days of the month though when financial banana skins (rising interest rates?) could catch you out.
