Daily Horoscopes
Tuesday 1st August 2006
Your physical system might be rebelling and it might be time for a de-tox. Someone whom you see as either a financial guru or a person who plays cards close to their chest, might need you to help them through what they see as a maze. You might be amused by the way in which they're trying to bridge the gap between traditional and modern. The way they're processing information could raise a wry smile.
Wednesday 2nd August 2006
Imagine that your brain has been invaded: too many ideas and undercurrents could be thrown at you all at once. Your nervous system might find it difficult to cope. Which might, understandably, draw you to someone who seems better able to deal with 'the dark side (a Scorpio?!). Being encouraged to tune into instinctive reactions may be no bad thing: all you have to remember is that these are early days and that you need more time to practice. In short, you could be taken on a mystery ride.
Thursday 3rd August 2006
You could so, so fall for something you think you really, really need. This is interesting. It could be that you're craving colour and something dynamic. You might not need to shop at all: you might simply need to be with people who bring colourful dimensions into your life. This is likely to include music and Art that's unfamiliar but which carries a powerful message.
Friday 4th August 2006
You could feel trapped or bored - which is a situation that could last a few days unless you can find something to get your teeth into. Others (probably older but perhaps just from another generation) might be trying to dictate the structure of your day. You could use 'health and safety' or a regulation to get them off your back whilst you put focus where you want it to be.
Saturday 5th August 2006
Someone who has an over-bearing presence could press all the wrong buttons. In protecting your position, you could incur expenses you hadn't planned for. On the upside you could quietly, but with determination, set in motion plans to learn more about something that fascinated you. This course of action could take you away from the person who's just too, too loud for you.
Sunday 6th August 2006
Pooling resources may be necessary - and not at all unpleasant. A Capricorn friend might be willing to sort out a 'problem' that's been in the air for days. Though it's possible that this person is preoccupied with problems close to home, they might still have time to sort out a bug in a system that's driving you crazy (and if they're not born under Capricorn then maybe they're older or have the right experience).
Monday 7th August 2006
On the one hand you might be sick of words and analysis: on the other you may be pleased to reach a bottom line. An expert could play a significant role in helping you attain a goal. Paper qualifications could matter a little more than usual. You might also have good reason to complain about defective goods or services - and start the process of getting your money back.
Tuesday 8th August 2006
Ok, it might seem as though others have you in their web. Sharing the planet with others - and involvement in the inevitable complications might hold special fascination though. A friend's relationships could carry intrigue and passion in a way that's compelling to watch. You might also be asked to help pass on information.
Wednesday 9th August 2006
It's said that Gemini people could talk their way out of a paper bag: and you could now prove this to be the case. Someone who always seems to have the right answer might be mystified as to how you know so much. In short, you could pull the rug from under someone's feet. You could also gain increased respect from someone who's really impressed by your consideration and analysis of a health or study routine.
Thursday 10th August 2006
Don't underestimate your imagination and flair. You could come up with a fabulous design concept - or be the one who recognises a winner. The Internet may be unusually significant. It's possible too that someone who's usually so good with cash and organisation feels lost and confused and needs you to help them out of a situation where they're all 'steamed up'.
Friday 11th August 2006
Mentally you may be turning a corner: which could result in you deciding on a new learning direction. At one level this could be about choosing a different course of study. At a different level it may be about literally changing direction (and making a sacrifice) so that you can spend more time with someone special.
Saturday 12th August 2006
It won't be surprising if you need to make drastic changes: moving furniture perhaps. It's as likely that these will be thrust upon you over today and tomorrow. Your emotions could be shaken by news from someone you thought was really organised but who is clearly in a state of disarray. At a different level, the 'light switch' could be turned on and you may discover what you really want to do - and with whom.
Sunday 13th August 2006
Your imagination's likely to be working really well. Your powers of ESP could be enhanced too. So, you might know what someone's going to say, even as they struggle to find the right words. This could result in a comedy scene. On that note: you could act out a sit-com type sketch and trip someone's creative genius into action. A marketing or holiday plan could quickly evolve.
Monday 14th August 2006
Mentally you may feel 'confined to barracks' - perhaps because you're following doctor's orders or because travel plans have to be followed to the letter. Your mind isn't imprisoned though - and an 'escape plan' could materialise. Of course, you could simply excel with puzzles and quizzes used to pass the time. You could also write notes on the back of an envelope that later prove to be the seeds of a grand plan. Encouragement is likely to come from an Aquarius who's seen you in this mood before.
Tuesday 15th August 2006
More than one person might want to know what you're really thinking and feeling. The danger is that you might give different replies and so cast a web of intrigue that makes it difficult for others to help: save, possibly, for one person (a Sagittarius?) who seems able to read between the lines and, though their approach is less sensitive than you'd like it to be, is very much on the ball and able to fight your corner.
Wednesday 16th August 2006
Enthusiasm could take you to a book-shop or cause you to surf the Internet in pursuit of 'brain food'. You could excel at a game or quiz. You might even be able to show someone who always thinks that they know everything, that there's a quicker, sure-fired way to get what they want. By adapting your schedule at short notice you could land ahead of a few people and create a stir in the process.
Thursday 17th August 2006
Holding a secret could prove testing! Displacement activity could take the form of searching for a financial document you're sure you've seen recently. (It may be under something heavy). Jewellery or some other valuable item might require extra attention (a new clasp?), requiring you to visit a shopping area - where you could run into an old friend who's been living some distance away.
Friday 18th August 2006
The prospect of meeting up with people you haven't seen in ages could leave you alternately excited - but also filled with trepidation. You may not be sure you have the resources to cope. What might excite you though is seeing friends you bump into fairly regularly but who, in recent months, have made a major move. You might be contemplating this yourself - and seeking advice.
Saturday 19th August 2006
Cash flow could be fast. You could end up travelling at speed too. Your thought-processes are also likely to be zippier than usual. You're unlikely to be careless in any or all of these departments though. With your memory in good working order (and making it easier to apply the benefit of experience), you might even amaze yourself by seizing an opportunity - and enjoying special time with an Aquarius.
Sunday 20th August 2006
Restoring relations with someone you don't see too often could take just moments. They're likely to be intrigued by the changes you've made to your nest and a project you've been working on 'on the quiet'. Food could play a more important role than usual - with you craving a taste (one you might last have experienced when you were with this person?).
Monday 21st August 2006
Old black and white photographs could have remarkable impact: bringing to life a story from the past. An Aquarius friend might have the answers to some of your questions. They might also need to talk about a regret. The needs of an older person miles away could be discussed: possibly prompting you to write a letter or make a phone call on their behalf.
Tuesday 22nd August 2006
True, you could feel overwhelmed by how much information there is for you to absorb. If on holiday it might be easy to deal with the onslaught of things you need to know. At work though you may need to accept a deadline now so as to have time free later. All this could be put to you by a Leo friend who, for once anyway, seems to be applying common sense: perhaps they sense that you can only cope with so much presently and that after the New Moon (tomorrow) you'll be better able to cope.
Wednesday 23rd August 2006
Today's New Moon marks a fresh start. You might decide to try a new diet or fitness programme. It's not just the mystery of good health that could be a big factor in your thinking: you might also be intrigued by a magic act or a spiritual programme. A Leo may have sown an idea or discussed a concept that now has you intrigued. Even your attitude to an Art form could change. Cats - large and small (and perhaps part of a design) could have some significance.
Thursday 24th August 2006
You may be in the mood to investigate - or to rearrange home-space. In the process of space-clearing you could come across an item 'lost' much earlier in the year. Reminded of an earlier enthusiasm, you might even make contact with a colleague who was involved in that project (trip?) and might even enquire what the chances are of it being repeated next year.
Friday 25th August 2006
You could network like crazy and play the part of the perfect butterfly. Friends and colleagues might want you stick around longer. It might seem to them that you're in tune with fashions, ideas and even code-breaking (anything that teases your brain into looking at things differently). You, though, may want to spend time with one person especially. What might have turned you on is 'humour with a twist'.
Saturday 26th August 2006
It's probable that you're ready to make a gentle commitment. This could be anything from subscription to a magazine or to membership of a gym: the possibilities are endless. The point in all this is that you might now be ready to join forces with others with similar interests and to pool expertise. This could bring you into contact with both Leos and Libras who can immediately see your value and might even 'fight' to have you on 'their' team.
Sunday 27th August 2006
Contact with a charity is likely: or you might be asked to help someone who's not well. At a quite different level you could find the right words to help someone who's really stuck. It's possible that they're trying to apologise - though it could be that they've allowed themselves to be treated like a doormat and now need to find strength to say 'no more'. Extremes are likely - with your wordsmith abilities coming in useful.
Monday 28th August 2006
You possibly understand someone's game better than they do themselves. Behind their smiles might be a strategy that gets them where they want to be but doesn't always get you what you want. You might decide it's time to discuss this. A frank exchange - combined with good humour - is likely. You might also attract assistance from someone who's spent a long time studying and who clearly knows their stuff.
Tuesday 29th August 2006
Emotionally you could be super-charged. Your nervous system is likely to be highly sensitive (so this isn't a time to try out too many new foods. Stick to simple if in doubt). Of course, it could be that you're only now discovering the truth about a relationship and it's this that's got under your skin. Another possibility is the need to move items. You perhaps need more space to be able to move around more freely.
Wednesday 30th August 2006
Once again you might wish to don a detective outfit. Whether you're trying to find the perfect diet or locate someone who's gone missing, you could be so, so on the case. If on holiday, you could lose yourself in a novel. In every sense you might wish to be transported onto other thinking wavelengths. Like a radio trying a new frequency, you could come across a real gem (probabl a person) whose music or way with words is compelling.
Thursday 31st August 2006
You could experience a 'fit of the blues' which, on one level, might result in you being attracted to jazz sounds. You may have been attracted to someone who thinks rules are there to be broken and whose carefree style is compelling. You might also be intrigued to know how a complex wiring or information system really works (perhaps because an item needs repair). The resulting investigation (until this is fixed) could turn on under-used brain cells.
Weekly Horoscopes
Week Beginning Sunday 6th August 2006
At the end of this week Mercury will be back at the position it held before it's recent apparent pirouette. This, together with Wednesday's Full Moon, suggests the pace is about to change. Though there may be new dramas on the horizon (and potentially domestic upheaval), the good news is that plans that were put in place way back in June could now be realised. Another possibility is that what was hinted at then could become the subject of much discussion. Midst all this, you may be taking on board so many different ideas that your head is left to spin - especially on Thursday. It's then though that the needs of an Aquarius-born friend might need to take priority. Your role throughout all this may be to keep track of the various tasks to be done. This could be the ideal week for a holiday when cramming in as much as possible is part of the total experience.
Week Beginning Sunday 13th August 2006
Curious influences could result in you conquering a technical phobia or even coming up with an idea that's worth patenting. This seems to be about more than problem-solving and harnessing new technological developments to remove obstacles. This could also be viewed as an excellent time to be on holiday - the playful side of your brain is likely to be eager for new experiences. Midst all this, you could connect with a Leo or Taurus who has the germ of an idea but doesn't know quite how to draw various threads together - which is where you come in. You might even be seen as the power-broker on Thursday. The art then might be to persuade those who feel that what you're doing isn't quite right (or ethical) that you are on the right side of the law and that you're simply using poetic license.
Week Beginning Sunday 20th August 2006
You could be held to account by something you've written - and possibly not got quite right - on Monday. Another possibility is that you'll spend the day waiting for information that should have arrived before the weekend. Either way communications could be the big issue and might take until Tuesday to resolve (and even then require action by someone who's used to arguing and getting their way). A mood shift is likely to follow Wednesday's New Moon. This one could leave you feeling much better in yourself - probably because you're now working with accurate information and are in the mood to make decisions. Midst all this, someone who's hectored you in the past but obviously has your welfare at heart, could encourage you to go for something that might, on paper, seem out of reach. Pushing at your comfort zone and tearing down bits that are now a waste of your mental and emotional energy could be easy to effect on Friday.
Week Beginning Sunday 27th August 2006
Monday could find you in good spirits - though possibly over-sensitive to noise. Your natural journalistic talents could surface. What you report to others is likely to be entertaining and markedly perceptive. Indeed, it's information you pass on, that could be helpful to someone who wants to get to know an area, or way of thinking, really well midweek. This could be part of a marketing exercise. It's as likely that an operation is being considered for expansion and that your role as a 'mole' is particularly useful. Indeed, it's your understanding of a complex situation that may be most helpful to others on Thursday when a reality check becomes necessary. What seems a down-wave to some could actually be a spring-board for you. ON Friday you might finally decide on a course of study and how best to get started. An old friend may be able to give you the 'passport' you need for entry.
Weekend (Love) Horoscopes
The Weekend of Friday 4th August 2006
Older or serious-minded people could exert great influence this weekend. There may be moments when fun has to be curtailed out of deference to someone who's grappling with an important issue. A degree of domestic and emotional turbulence could be experienced. An unscheduled visit may be at the heart of this. It might not be possible to get your voice heard above other people's needs until Sunday. It's at this point though that you might decide you need a change of scenery entirely. This time, it's old places that might suit you best - and/or a trip along a tunnel. It's whilst on this excursion that you might be reminded of an incident that you'd now like to know far more about: a wise partner might be willing to explore with you and so bring you closer together.
The Weekend of Friday 11th August 2006
Two 'tug-of-wars' form in the sky this weekend. These aspects (oppositions) aren't unusual: but clustered together they suggest an eventful time. Friday's aspect could coincide with important (long-distance?) news which, whilst expected, is not quite what you'd thought it would be - prompting a dynamic change in thinking and possibly requiring you to make several urgent calls or trips. Sunday's opposition is different in that this time it's your domestic and emotional base that could be shaken. Between these two aspects, (on Saturday) you might be wrestling with options you hadn't expected to have to consider. The support of friends (probably others born under mutable signs: Virgo, Sagittarius and Pisces) could be valuable. What seems likely is that there will be a 'war' between your head and your heart.
The Weekend of Friday 18th August 2006
It's less likely to be a case of misunderstandings and more likely to be a tangled mess of communications that results in Friday being noisy, disorganised and not particularly conducive to romantic development. Which is not to say that romance won't be in the air. However, it could take effort if you need to experience it in its more classic form. You may have to hold your tongue and resist the urge to suggest that anyone and everyone is welcome at an event. Indeed, it's possible that someone's looking for private time with you and doesn't want to wait for days for that to happen. Being willing to adjust plans may be necessary. Revival of romance is possible though. In the process you might also have the wind taken out of your sails by the effort someone's willing to go to make the two of you 'happen'.
The Weekend of Friday 25th August 2006
A rare pattern is forming in the sky (exact at the end of the month). This weekend it might seem that nothing can or will change. That's unlikely though. So, even if you feel tied into situations outside your control it might be helpful to know that change is in the air and that it will blow in soon. True, in the meantime you could suffer an acute case of wishing for what could be (anything from 'unrequited love' to 'absence making the heart grow fonder' to simple longing). However, that doesn't mean that these next few days won't hold some precious moments. Your creative genius could easily shine through. From mastering dance steps to web-site design, you could not only harness your imagination, but you might also attract someone who needs those gifts as much you need the inspiration that they probably don't even realise they're providing. An Aquarius or Libra could be involved.
Monthly Horoscope
The Month of August 2006
Toward the end of this month Saturn and Neptune will lie opposite one another (as viewed from Earth). This is not a frequent occurrence. The areas of the chart accented for you are those associated (financially) with credit cards. It may be these (or rising global interest rates) which effectively place financial banana skins before you. Living within a budget could be regarded as a critical test in the coming months. The first sign of difficulties could be experienced between 4th and 8th when you might also be given a sharp reminder of your obligations to older people and, quite separately, a reminder to reduce communication, transport and travel bills. With little effort you may be able to find better deals by 14th. An internet-related investment could be attractive around the Full Moon (9th) and might result in financial gain (or a good investment tip) to take further advantage of on 17th. It's new technologies that could promise most on 28th/29th. The art this month might be to take advantage of offers whilst not building debt.
