Daily Horoscopes
Tuesday 1st August 2006
It might help you if you treat yourself - and preferably after the Sun's gone down. You might really NEED moonlight. Torn between the old and the new, your schedule could be affected by incidents quite outside your control. You might need to be told 'what to do' and have certain decisions taken from you. (Don't forget, there are plenty of times when you protect others and that it's OK for you to have the same need sometimes).

Wednesday 2nd August 2006
Ok, you could go WAY, WAY over the top. If on holiday you could do it in style - and in the moonlight. Back at home-base a different kind of emotional wave could carry you (shopping?). The point about all this is that having decided you 'deserve a treat', you could go overboard. It's not all bad news though: you could come to the notice of someone who says little, watches everything, and knows how to tease romantic cells into action.

Thursday 3rd August 2006
It could be that you need to deliver a heart-felt apology. It might also be that you feel the need to make someone feel better. Unconditional love rules the day - and might even lead to involvement with a charity that supports those unable to look after themselves. At a very different level you might also wonder about the history of a place - which could lead to a conversation with a historian or archivist.

Friday 4th August 2006
View today as a cosmic test in the art of NOT getting wound up when financial matters don't run as smoothly as you'd like. It may be that you sense you're coming to the end of the road with a project and that you have some regrets - all of which is understandable. Under your nose could be an older person (OK, or a Capricorn) who's there for you when you need them.

Saturday 5th August 2006
You could be over-stretched: possibly because you're trying to look after too many people and projects. The past and memories of time spent working in a particular locale could catch you unawares. Just as you think you're stuck in a groove though, news from someone who's used to travelling in their job, could result in you thinking about a work offer that would take you too away from home base.

Sunday 6th August 2006
Though you might be in quirky humour, you might also need someone to balance your arguments and, effectively to take some strain from you. The more formal arrangements there are to deal with probably the better (though you could complain like mad). The art today may in balancing the need for habit and rituals with the desire to be adventurous and 'off the wall'.

Monday 7th August 2006
It might feel as though a ton of financial bricks have tumbled to your doorstep. It could also be that you're offered a promotion that doesn't feel as though it will bring financial reward (yet). On top of all that, a property issue could demand attention. The good news in all this is that a Capricorn friend may be more than happy to help share the load.

Tuesday 8th August 2006
Negotiating and planning talents at times make you the perfect 'leader'. Others might be happy for you to be the administrator and to organise an event. The end result is likely to be seamless if not perfect. You may need to help both a Capricorn and others unfamiliar with a system to cope however. A piece of velvet or tactile material could prove special in some way.

Wednesday 9th August 2006
Joint financial issues could play on your mind. A little tension is probable. It's possible though that you've simply got too much to do and that for some reason or other your physical system isn't working quite as well as it might. It's likely too that changes in the neighbourhood are affecting you more than you'd anticipated.

Thursday 10th August 2006
Someone with whom you're doing 'business' could really appreciate your straight-talking and the clarity you bring to a project. They might not know that you too are actually quite confused: the future might not be a place you want to habit just yet. Being near water, swimming or even gazing at fishes swimming in a bowl could help. In this setting you might also come up with a design plan.

Friday 11th August 2006
You could feel all at sea - and might even benefit from a day out near water. Though aware that the weekend's likely to be action-packed, you might not know where to start. This though might be the very moment to indulge in wishful thinking and to start attracting what's in your hidden mind's eye. The romantic consequences could be interesting!

Saturday 12th August 2006
A tiger could get into your tank and you could move mountains. It's likely that this will involve moving furniture. It might also be that you finally tune in to what you really, really want and which parts of the world (and cultures) really captivate you - all of which could impact on a shopping trip and the purchase of tickets for travel or to an event.

Sunday 13th August 2006
Long-distance news from friends seems likely to be the cause of celebration - which might go some way to reduce anxiety at the amount of chaos that may be going on around you. You might need a change of scene. It's possible too that you'll identify a DIY project and seek ideas from a showroom or magazine.

Monday 14th August 2006
Your ability to bring together a team, co-ordinate a project and generally get others into action seems likely to be tested. What's particularly interesting is that in the process you could make a subtle change that actually streamlines a task. Small animals or youngsters may be cause for some concern - but less so after you've spoken to someone whose off-the-wall ideas have worked before and could so easily do so again.

Tuesday 15th August 2006
Odd tasks and frequent short journeys seem more likely than not. It's likely too that there will be an increase in calls and texts. With a degree of chaos around, you might welcome news from a long-distance friend whose life has been turned upside down recently and who has helpful tips to share. A relationship with someone involved in the healing profession could take a new turn - with you gaining greater insight into a condition.

Wednesday 16th August 2006
It might feel as though you're robbing Peter to pay Paul. It might not just be money that you're shifting from place to place though. Your nervous system could come under some strain - though it's unlikely you'll have much time to deal with emotions, since a general air of busy-ness could mean that there isn't much time to call your own. Numerous text and phone messages could form the basis for a funny script.

Thursday 17th August 2006
You might not know which task to tackle first. Preoccupation with a basement or the creation of working space is likely. Small animals and detailed work could require more attention than usual too. Uppermost perhaps ought to be the creation of sanctuary space where you can be quiet and collect your thoughts. Contact with a health professional is likely - curiously, not through your own needs at all.

Friday 18th August 2006
It might feel as though you're still in a state of flux. It's likely though that you've attracted help and that within days, your nerves will calm. For now, the accent may be on interiors and/or fashions. Trailing telephone and television cable issues might require attention. Midst continuing chaos, the chance to add a new skill to your portfolio, could be something you're excited to embrace.

Saturday 19th August 2006
With the Moon in your sign, you could go into nesting over-drive. Unless you arrange sanctuary space, you could be overwhelmed though: especially when you're pushed into making too-fast decisions. A Virgo friend could bring exactly the right care and attention to detail needed to ensure that something that wasn't working as well as it should, is now in good order.

Sunday 20th August 2006
You might still be trying to arrive at some semblance of order whilst accepting that what's recently begun is going to be a work-in-progress for some time. A leak, the placement of a water container or an old pipe could get in the way of a design: resolving this could prove far easier than you'd imagined - partly due to a friend's quick thinking and expertise.

Monday 21st August 2006
You could experience a financial banana skin. Costs related to a bathroom or kitchen could be greater than planned. In the process of putting this right, an old-fashioned, quality item could come your way. Another variation on this theme would be finding treasure on a beach. It's possible too that a professional artist will bring you happiness.

Tuesday 22nd August 2006
Not only could you find a bargain today, you could also attract the kind of task/job that's just your style. The only snag in all this is that enthusiasm could lead you to wanting to do more than is really feasible. Much might depend on the flexibility of a contract - which is something that might not have been considered and is fazing someone who's not used to this kind of creative thinking and negotiation.

Wednesday 23rd August 2006
Your perspective may be about to change. A route might have altered and/or you might be joining a new team. Today's New Moon could bring new people into your life. They may have already heard about your talents. As yet, they may not know how valuable you'll be. You may be exuding a confidence you don't yet feel - though it's likely you'll enjoy rising to the challenge.

Thursday 24th August 2006
Even the shortest of shopping-trips could lead you to making a wise investment. This might be for a health product or an item that would be used daily. You might also decide that it's time to change your 'news diet' and read a different newspaper. Contact with friends returning from holiday might mean arranging a long phone call to bring them up to speed with all that's happened.

Friday 25th August 2006
You might still have SO much to do. Even so, the prospect of spending time with some who matters greatly - and is probably a little older - could be enough for you to set aside some chores for later. News from a Virgo friend could give you masses to laugh about. You might also feel confident enough to ask detailed questions as to how something works - and how much it cost to make it do so!

Saturday 26th August 2006
Let's hope you can manage to be near sea or water. Under these conditions you could really 'lose' yourself and tune in to your imagination. You might also benefit from being with people who've had their moments of feeling 'lost'. Discussions about hopes, dreams, and designs seem likely. For now, you might be happy to celebrate just how much has been accomplished in a short time.

Sunday 27th August 2006
You probably really, really need to be near water - or at the very least to immerse yourself in music (or silence). The point is that you may need to feel part of something much greater than yourself. You'd probably enjoy anything that's connected to charity and/or, of course, luxuriating in romance.

Monday 28th August 2006
You might, quite literally, need to put your feet up. You might also need to bring a sense back into good working order. Thinking about taste, smell and hearing might also cause you to make adjustments to your environment. What you learn in a local cafe or shop could alert you to a new development - which could affect a route you take daily.

Tuesday 29th August 2006
You could experience a high number of 'action moments'. You might even find delegating talents. The point is that you're likely to want things done - and NOW. Irritation (even manifesting as a rash) could result if others aren't quick to recognise needs. The positive side of all this is that you could 'move a mountain', so that you're left in a position to get on with something you love and/or to fulfil a promise to yourself.

Wednesday 30th August 2006
This could be one of your more sensitive days - and true, you could have moments when you feel as though you might fall down a well of despair. Viewed another way, you could simply be tuning into dark under-currents. That might make this the perfect time for clearing dark and damp places. You might also attract people who're slowly coming back to real-time (after a holiday) and help them with the transition.

Thursday 31st August 2006
Yesterday's melancholy is likely to give way to clarity. Though you may feel compelled to make lists first, you could then set off on a course of action that ensures priorities are tackled in order - and to your satisfaction. True, there may be moments when you're more 'picky' than usual. However, especially when working with someone new, making clear your personal standards may be imperative. Friends born under Virgo and Pisces are likely to understand exactly.

Weekly Horoscopes
Week Beginning Sunday 6th August 2006
On Monday, the Sun and Saturn will align in an important 'financial' area of your solar chart. Though it could be any time between Friday 11th and Tuesday 22nd before you 'sign on the dotted line', it's probable that you already know you'll be making an important investment. Wednesday's Full Moon in another 'financial' area suggests a long-term commitment could be about to get underway. Though excited, you might still be apprehensive and, on Thursday, almost confused and disorientated wondering you're 'doing the right thing'. You may need to accept that you won't feel 'settled' until after the next New Moon (August 25th). Being with people who have the happy knack of 'going with the flow' could help - as might accepting that in even a few week's time this week's angst and chaos will be forgotten to be replaced by the feeling that you've moved on.

Week Beginning Sunday 13th August 2006
This could be viewed as a 'curious week of adjustment' (so possibly perfect for a holiday). Though probably expensive on Monday when essential items might need to be purchased, the rest of the week doesn't follow in quite the same way. Indeed revamping, making do and generally accessing latent thrift talents is likely. Harnessed with good will from friends, you could recharge your batteries before Thursday. It's around then (17th) that discussions about the pattern of your working life could take on a more earnest quality to be followed on Friday by talks with a variety of people from your network who may know of avenues you've yet to fully explore. Whether at home or on holiday, the accent then seems on telecommunications and getting from A to B as quickly as possible. Throughout the entire week, contact with people who're away from their home base seems likely as you each try to keep abreast of developments.

Week Beginning Sunday 20th August 2006
On Monday you might feel 'all at sea' - particularly where finance is concerned - which could throw you into one of your 'flat-spins'. Keeping one foot on the ground and not allowing your imagination (and fears) to get too tight a grip is likely to take courage and determination (thankfully not too far from the surface). Part of the problem may be that others are being less than clear as to what costs will really be (workmen in particular). The good news is that soon after Wednesday's New Moon (and possibly because you've issued an ultimatum or gone on a firm but charm-offensive), agreement could be reached. Thursday could be a key day in another way: you might also come to an understanding with someone about the way you can work together. Though it might take until early next week before you conclude all arrangements, a step up the professional ladder seems more likely than not.

Week Beginning Sunday 27th August 2006
On Tuesday, Jupiter and Uranus form a trine in two of the Water signs. (Your sign makes up the third). So it could be that you move into the spotlight - and for the nicest of reasons. It's very much a week for future planning: though it might be plans made by friends and colleagues that dominate Monday's conversations. It's late that day and throughout Tuesday when you could be at your (physically) busiest. The hunt for experts who can assist with certain tasks could take most of the day. The good news is that these people are likely to be closer to hand than you'd expected. Midst a degree of chaos, an old friend's likely to make contact. Though you may not be able to meet until the end of the week, their news could be really exciting. Planning a trip to see them in their new situation is likely. It might also be that they have a proposal for you to consider.

Weekend (Love) Horoscopes
The Weekend of Friday 4th August 2006
OK, this might not be the easiest of weekends. For whatever reason, a serious note could have entered proceedings. This might not be at all a bad thing if you're in the process of making or strengthening a relationship by committing yourselves to a long-term project. If that's the case, then the weekend might actually be productive in bringing you both to the point where you identify what's important. An element of effort and hard-work could exist. Even on holiday, you might be struggling against trends. Where this weekend's aspects might work spectacularly well though is if you're in a place of great history. In this setting, you could make a promise that acts as an anchor and, even if you're in a new partnership, acts as a temporary rock on which a union could be built.

The Weekend of Friday 11th August 2006
Tender loving care might be needed on Friday when, though Venus is in your sign, two oppositions between planets suggest a degree of tension. You could feel like a little plant that's being uprooted. Sure, you may be excited and even exhilarated by the prospect of being in a different place (holiday destination?), you might also be fretful though (Cancer-babes need time to adjust to new settings). Though Friday could be over-whelming (especially if you're saying temporary good-bye to a place or people you love), as the Moon (your ruling 'planet') changes signs on Saturday, you could tune in to a new frequency. With others anxious to help you feel at home and you too enjoying putting your feet in new water (paddling?!), you could be nestling into someone's arms happily on Sunday or soon after.

The Weekend of Friday 18th August 2006
Ok, maybe you would like to go out and play on Friday: it's possible that the list of things 'to do' is as long as your arm though. So, though you might be out and about, to get you to smile and really enjoy yourself, others might have to first locate your sense of humour button and get you to laugh at the absurdity of a situation. Once that little job's done, you could be first to enter into the spirit of things. Indeed, doing something different 'just for the heck of it' on Saturday could bring back your sparkle: which in turn could do wonders for your romantic life. Digging deep and untapping a pool of reserves of affection is probable from Sunday when you might decide to kick an element of the past into touch and to indulge in day-dreaming with someone who's getting ever-closer to your wavelength.

The Weekend of Friday 25th August 2006
A complicated pattern involving the larger planets forms at the end of the month. What happens this weekend could be viewed as the overture. It's likely that not only are you going through significant change (which you recognise) but that the same is true of all your friends. A shift in priorities is likely. It's also probable that your role will be to offer a steadying hand - even though you may need one of those yourself! Friday's excitement could turn into momentary dismay on Saturday when the enormity of what everyone's involved in hits home. Midst all this though you may be acutely aware of just how important some people are to you and how much you need to treasure them. That might even translate into literally sharing a holiday treasure hunt. Midst all this, the care and affection shown to you by someone older (could be a Leo or Capricorn) might be all you need to affirm that your emotional needs are of high priority to someone you regard as special too.

Monthly Horoscope
The Month of August 2006
On Friday 11th, Mercury will catch up with the position it held prior to its recent retrograde period. Coupled with the Sun's meeting with Saturn (7th) in a key financial area of your solar chart, you may then be ready to take a financial step which you view as being a personal investment. Whether this is in your nest or career or even family, a degree of discomfort is likely as you adjust to new commitments. Temporarily at least you might not know where you are where money is concerned until after Venus aligns with Saturn on 26th. Around the time of the Full Moon (9th) you could feel ultra-confused! It could be argued that you might feel this way for several months more - until Saturn moves on. Encouraging news reaching you around 23rd suggests that another revenue stream could open up however. Indeed, over 28th and 29th, a small financial break might be realised. It's around this time too that you might consider investing in a product or service that promises to reduce leaks and wastage.
