Daily Horoscopes
Tuesday 1st August 2006
It might seem as though others are making decisions for you - (which could feel quite nice). Yet, you might want to know more about why they're choosing certain directions. Your status within a group could be changing. It might also be suggested that you write more forcefully. It's possible too that you'll be encouraged to say 'no' to someone who's clearly taking liberties.
Wednesday 2nd August 2006
It might be an idea to hide your credit cards and in some way reduce the tendency to shop-until-you-drop. Friends born under the fixed signs (Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius) may have demanded too much: it could be that your need to shop is a reaction to those requests. A new relationship could be forming too (always a testing time for Librans!) and you might think you need a new outfit. Do you really?
Thursday 3rd August 2006
You could be faced with an interesting dilemma when one of your ideas starts to float. You may now be required to do more than just talk. Your ability to nurture a concept and to bring it to the point where others can make it sail, could be called into question. Someone too close might be all too quick to point out where you've failed in the past. Proving them wrong could be a major incentive.
Friday 4th August 2006
OK, so you may be ready - and eager - to move off in a different direction. You might also want to 'show someone' what you're made of. There's little danger that you'll bite off more than you can chew but a real possibility that you could accept responsibility without thinking through how you'll feel about this in a few months' time. Listening to a Sagittarius friend's wise counsel could be a really good idea.
Saturday 5th August 2006
Thirst for information might result in you buying reference books and reorganising space so that important items are at hand. You might also plan a 'research' trip (probably with a Sagittarius companion). A proposal might require a changed approach to routine and an agreement to be more selective about how you share certain information. Midst all this, your romantic head could be turned by someone who's happy to listen to your thought-processes.
Sunday 6th August 2006
Property and long-term security could be nagging at you. Yet you might also want to spend more time cultivating an interest in something that's just a little 'off the wall'. It's possible too that your position within a group is bringing more responsibility than you want to carry. A clash between obligations and desires seems likely - but could take the form of being pulled in different directions by family and new friends.
Monday 7th August 2006
You might like to buy a new 'little black book' - or in some way list the people who're really important to you. The process could cause you to (mentally) end a relationship with a group who no longer provide you with the support you need. You might also have concern for someone older who's not at all happy presently and who needs to know that these times too will pass.
Tuesday 8th August 2006
Word about you and your talents could be spreading. Simultaneously, interest in your long-term financial future (pensions etc) may be stirred. A close friend is likely to suggest a plan that they may have been incubating for some weeks - and which would maximise resources. They might also have ideas about how you could share leisure time better.
Wednesday 9th August 2006
Marginal tension in a close friendship could be caused by your need to pursue a career or family objective. Plans for a trip might require that you apportion tasks to be done before moving off. Midst all this you could be side-tracked by the arousal of passion in someone. It might not be wise to dismiss this enthusiasm for a passing phase.
Thursday 10th August 2006
Technicalities could confuse you. At a different level you may need to be with people who think so far out of the box it's almost unbelievable. In short, you could be 'lost in space'. In this place though you could fantasise a different world and make adjustments to your usual routine that are therapeutic: in particular you could make contact - and spend time with someone who's known for their healing abilities.
Friday 11th August 2006
Ok, you could feel disorientated - you might even be in a different place (hopefully either high up or near water): yet might benefit from the feel of the the fluidity of water or air around you. You might also be tuning in to a much higher authority and unearthing a mission you didn't know existed. Though exasperated by poor telecommunications, you might also appreciate having time and space to think differently - and imaginatively.
Saturday 12th August 2006
True, your nerves may have been stretched in recent weeks. You might now be cursing a piece of computer equipment. It's possible that you need a day off and/or that you've been running on spiritual empty for too long. Immersing yourself in a novel, walking and replenishing your soul in some way might be regarded as high priority. It's likely too that a very good friend is aware that you need help to restore your batteries.
Sunday 13th August 2006
Gauging the reaction of a close friend to surprising news might require that you pause before asking questions. It's possible that they're wondering what you're thinking too. You could learn a lot about one another in the process. Doing something different - or doing familiar things differently is likely to put high octane into your partnership fuel tank.
Monday 14th August 2006
Someone close may be holding the purse strings and the rebel within you could surface. Discussion could clear the air. It may be that you have different ideas as to how best you can protect your futures. You might both have anxieties about the unknown. At a very different level you might like to do something entirely out of the ordinary. Being in the care of a tour guide (whilst on holiday) or with a technical person (if at work) could give you fresh insight.
Tuesday 15th August 2006
Communications may not be entirely as you could wish. Yet even with a little information you could be assured that positive change is taking place. History may be playing an unusually important role. The need to understand a geographical area and, perhaps, to make arrangements to study a layout could result in you visiting a library. It's likely too that you'll be discussing small domestic changes with someone who shares your personal space.
Wednesday 16th August 2006
The urge to know what's happening miles away could be so, so strong. It's probable too though that an idea that's been germinating since at least last December is now surfacing. A close friend's views could take on special importance. The amount of hours you'd need to spend honing skills could be an issue. It's likely too that a partner's relationships with a group - and a planned trip with them - will require attention.
Thursday 17th August 2006
It could feel as though you've been filled with rocket fuel. You're likely to talk and talk. At least one of your ideas might even be practical! Through dialogue (probably with a Sagittarius - but certainly someone who's used to debate), you could arrive at conclusions and prepare a plan that can be implemented closer to your birthday. Lack of knowledge of the history of a place could lead you to talking to a guide or expert.
Friday 18th August 2006
It might not be possible to avoid financial matters. Even on holiday there could be things to discuss - and news to absorb from base. You may be asked if you're willing to head-up a team or on some way assist developments that mean bringing new people on board. It's likely too that much of this will be communicated by email.
Saturday 19th August 2006
Career and family issues seem likely to continue to dominate conversation - probably because someone wants to know your plans. You could give an unexpected reply - and surprise yourself. (There may have been more going on in your sub-conscious than you knew). This could be a source of delight. Whilst doing something 'completely different' and probably involving a visit to a new place, you could build more on these ideas.
Sunday 20th August 2006
It's likely to require effort to switch off to either career or family matters - yet it could be in your best interests to try. Though not yet pressing, just how much involvement you want with a group may require careful consideration. A close friend might make this enquiry - masking their interest in how much time you'll have available for them. What's said over a meal could leave you confused about someone's motives.
Monday 21st August 2006
You might wish you were miles away and able to help someone who's overwhelmed by things to do. Your brain cells could be in overdrive due to other reasons: you may be wondering if you've taken on more than you can handle with a project that will be demanding time wise but could be lucrative. Involvement with an Arts project seems likely and could bring you closer to someone you admire and who's seen as a specialist in their craft.
Tuesday 22nd August 2006
You may be exploring places in your mind that you haven't visited in ages - prompted, possibly, by someone close who has your best interests at heart and can see that you've been doing too much. It might not take much for them to encourage your 'lazy Libra' sub-personality to surface. The upside of this is that in a relaxed state of mind you could arrive at a plan that would be financially beneficial and would benefit this friendship.
Wednesday 23rd August 2006
You may be reaching a financial turning point. Even if on holiday you might already know that significant changes are in the wind. It could be that someone's decide you are the 'right' (possibly 'only') person who can take on a project. They're probably not wrong in thinking that you need a project to get your teeth into. Meanwhile, an encounter could leave you pondering the meaning of time - and even feeling as though you've experienced a time-warp.
Thursday 24th August 2006
Travel or making travel arrangements seems likely. Unless you've designated yourself a contact-free zone, it seems likely that an unusually large number of people will want to contact you. News concerning an ancestor might give you something to discuss with a sibling or member of your extended family. Planning for a provision-shopping trip could result in it being more organised and pleasurable than usual - and more cost-effective.
Friday 25th August 2006
It's Friday, (Venus' day) and your ruling planet is making a lovely aspect to Mars. So, relationships could be 'well-starred'. You're likely to be looking good too. Encouraged by what others are saying about you and your talents, you might even feel confident enough to put forward an idea you've been nurturing since early July. A close companion might be willing to help get a presentation together.
Saturday 26th August 2006
Decision-making is generally not seen as your strong point (except in the work-place when you can be really tough). Just occasionally though you know exactly what should be done - which is what's likely now. You could help someone choose the perfect outfit or make a tough decision. Your understanding on the nature of time could be important too - bringing older people into your life and/or making you sound as though you've acquired wisdom with your years.
Sunday 27th August 2006
Your scales could now tip in the opposite direction. Having been so sure about where you were headed - and with whom - you might now wonder if you've gone too far. You perhaps just need time out to rebalance. You might also need even more time to play with an idea that would, eventually, be for the greater good. Your imagination could work over-time. You might need a very good friend to help anchor you and get things back in perspective.
Monday 28th August 2006
As the day wears on, you may feel the need to withdraw. It could be that too many people are saying exactly what they think and so upsetting general harmony. Of course, it could be that this is just a busy time socially and you don't have enough space to concentrate on the relationships that really matter to you. A Cancer friend could empathise - and help you create sanctuary space and time.
Tuesday 29th August 2006
A glut of information's likely to come your way - leaving you with the task of sifting through to find the truth of a situation. An unenviable element could be growing awareness that someone's not up to a job - and that their talents might be better used elsewhere. Promising financial news could come your way though - confirming decisions taken whilst the Sun was in Gemini (May 21 - June 21).
Wednesday 30th August 2006
You could so easily be overwhelmed by possibilities - though it might seem that nothing can come together for a short time yet. Whilst addressing the fact that you need better 'back-up' and could be a little more organised anyway, you might also recognise that others don't yet have clear ideas about what they want either. What might make you feel more on top of everything is greater understanding of your financial position. A first step could be to collate bank statements and check that you're being as resourceful as possible.
Thursday 31st August 2006
In talking through an idea (probably with a Sagittarius), you could allow doubts to surface. This might be a good thing. It's not that you want to pour cold water on a good idea: more a case that you've learnt from experience. You may be sensing that it would be better not to commit just yet - but to wait until after the next eclipse (Sept. 22nd). It's possible too that you need to assess whether or not you really know enough about a particular area to get involved.
Weekly Horoscopes
Week Beginning Sunday 6th August 2006
On Monday, as the Sun aligns with Saturn in your 'networking and distribution) zone, you might give thought to which organisations you're happy to belong to - and which are no longer fulfilling. This might also lead to review of magazine and newspaper subscriptions. Wednesday's Full Moon accents the need to spend more time on hobbies and creative pursuits. That being the case, you may be happy to put in extra hours early this week to secure time off later. To do this might mean sharing a workload with colleague who's initially resistant to assist. Persuasion could take most of Thursday too. It's Internet-related tasks or absorbing design that could preoccupy you on Friday. The negative side of this could be learning that a partnership is not going to develop quite as you'd wished. The positive side is that this could mark the start of an intense period of ideas incubation that pays off later.
Week Beginning Sunday 13th August 2006
You may be used to dealing with the unexpected -especially when it comes to technology. Even so, news reaching you on Monday could take you by surprise and could trigger an unusual reaction. Whereas it's often said that Libra people aren't good at making decisions, there are times when making them is so, so easy for you: which is precisely what could happen before Thursday. It might be over-dramatic to say you're about to change direction entirely. It seems likely though that you'll be revisiting an idea or project that will require you to once again build a team. That could lead to intense discussion and many, many calls on Friday as you seek to knit ideas together and to arrive at some sort of agenda or time plan to be implemented later this month. Throughout all this, building new and revitalising old networks using your natural charm seems high priority.
Week Beginning Sunday 20th August 2006
As with many people you might not know if you're coming or going on Monday. The difference for you is that your head may have been put in a spin by someone whose ideas you sense aren't yet fully formed. That could leave you, on Tuesday, trying to work out precisely what will have to be done - and by when. You can probably see where this person's ideas are going and where they're coming from though. Soon after Wednesday's New Moon, an apparently unstoppable flow of communications could arrive - all of which show clearly that essential groundwork has been carried out and that it's now up to you to follow through. It may be necessary to review a contract to find the get-out clause (or to determine what you really agreed to (your ethical position). You might also be put in a tizz on Friday by feeling you need to let someone know that you won't be following through on one of their plans after all.
Week Beginning Sunday 27th August 2006
Two infrequent aspects form this week. One might be described as exciting and innovative, whereas the other might be seen as disillusioning and even sorrowful. The contrast between the two could result in your scales being tipped from one extreme to another. Unless you're into wild-rides, this might not be the easiest of times. It may be comforting to know that on Friday (Venus' day!), that that planet (your ruling planet) plays a starring role. You could then be 'saved by the bell'. You might view all this as a test of faith. You might also see it as a test of your ability to stay calm and efficient under pressure. It's unlikely to be the case that Tuesday's promise turns into nothing. It's more likely that you'll put yourself through a crash course in modification and that by Friday you'll have the outline to a plan that not only carries you through September but puts emphasis where it should be - on your considerable talents.
Weekend (Love) Horoscopes
The Weekend of Friday 4th August 2006
Who you can trust - and which groups you really want to belong to might now be big issues. You might also learn more of the difficulties experienced by a couple who've been together for a long time but who now have nothing to say to one another. Someone who's as much a business partner as a friend is likely to understand your anxiety. They might also coax you into accepting that not everything has a happy ending and that you need to learn how not to panic when scales are imbalanced. They could also encourage you to accept that time is a great healer and that there are periods when saying nothing will balance the scales quickest. On Sunday, a work colleague could make you laugh at yourself and a routine that's now past it's sell-by-date.
The Weekend of Friday 11th August 2006
There are three things to remember about this weekend: firstly, Mercury has only now caught up with the position held before its recent retrograde period. This probably means you'll need to go back over the events since late June with someone. This action itself should provide glue that sticks you to one another. Secondly, you, the Libra, could be in romantic over-drive on Friday. It's this that could affect the rest of the weekend substantially. If another person is quick on the up-take, then by Sunday, when the third aspect takes hold, you could be surfing new waves together. However, if they're at all slow to respond to your needs, you could get all steamed up. All that said, you have to be responsible for your own happiness. Letting someone know what pleases you could be a useful step in the right direction!
The Weekend of Friday 18th August 2006
Though Friday could find you in convivial humour and happy to be mixing with people about whom you know little, by Saturday 'private' time could be more important. Again, though a group might want you to be part of their scene, your need may be to withdraw - albeit with someone who really matters - and to discuss something important to you. The Libra need to nurture projects is often over-looked. It might not be possible to ignore that this weekend. Indeed, over a meal on Saturday you could discuss exactly what an idea means to you and where you'd like to take it. Midst all this you might even discuss a domestic move. It would be understandable if exhaustion proved a problem on Sunday. By then though you might be happy to tune into what a close friend would like. Knitting together your different needs could take a few more days yet.
The Weekend of Friday 25th August 2006
With so much news to exchange and, possibly, friends to welcome back from a trip, Friday could pass happily. A key relationship could go through change however. Just as about a year ago a shift in family dynamics was apparent, similar type energies are once again at work. Relations with someone older could assume new importance - or it may be that someone younger asks for help and understanding in a romantic crisis (of which they have little experience). The 'give and take' of partnership could be the subject of discussion. You may feel you've just taken a step up the emotional maturity ladder. Within hours though you may need to convince yourself that this doesn't mean a loss of romantic activity. So, on Sunday you may be the one taking the lead and making it clear that the age of romance isn't dead but thriving and that you're ready to dance to its tune: and that you won't allow other pressures to intrude on a precious partnership. The process could make you very attractive to young and old alike.
Monthly Horoscope
The Month of August 2006
Contrary themes operate this month and your scales are likely to go from one extreme to the other. This might not be too unpleasant until the very end of the month when you could go from high to low within just a couple of days. The wind could so easily be taken out of your financial sails on Thursday 31st. Bearing this in mind, it might be wise to be circumspect through the preceding period. Pressure to consolidate your position may be felt until 7th. Soon after you might be seduced into thinking that a large oak will grow from a small acorn quickly. That's unrealistic - which in your heart of hearts you'll know to be the case. It might be better not to get involved in complex financial deals if you can avoid it. That said, around 9th an interesting offer could come your way. If you can afford to speculate, this might suit you: as could investing in new technology over 28th/29th. In other respects though - and bearing in mind that interest rates might rise sooner rather than later, you might do better to play the thrift card and live well within your means.
