Daily Horoscopes
Tuesday 1st August 2006
Whether or not you celebrated the closing of a chapter last night, it seems likely that you'll spend a fair chunk of today packing, archiving or storing. There might even be a race to get this done. Finding the way around a system might amuse you. A literal or metaphorical maze could keep you on your toes (a curious twist on this may be trying to sift through gossip where you're not 100% sure that sources are reliable).
Wednesday 2nd August 2006
Playing the detective might suit you. You're also likely to be especially observant. On a literal level you could end up tuning in to a new radio station. Viewed differently, you could see opportunities that might have been in the air since last autumn but which are only now crystallising. (You might also need a Leo or Sagittarius to point one of these out).
Thursday 3rd August 2006
Softening a blow could take great skill and charm and even then bring hard reactions. There may be no turning back though. It could be that you practice 'tough love' for someone's long-term benefit. It's possible too that you'll be reminded of an ancestor and wonder how they coped with a parallel situation.
Friday 4th August 2006
Work might be very hard - possibly because you're trying to meet a deadline. Rules and regulations could effect their own millstone. All this might be helping you to arrive at a decision re your long-term strategy. It might also result in greater contact with a Sagittarius who could teach you more over a meal than you've probably learnt in a year of formal study.
Saturday 5th August 2006
Negotiations could take an interesting turn. You could be invited to somewhere where you know that your senses will be teased. You might also get involved in a quiz and find the solution to a problem. Mist all this, a relative's recall could surprise you and leave you rethinking a time long gone.
Sunday 6th August 2006
You may be putting on an act - and it could be IMPRESSIVE. This might even require dressing up (or down). Making a grand gesture seems likely. The point in all this could be that you want others to realise that presently you mean exactly what you say using drama and theatrics to make the point.
Monday 7th August 2006
You may be forced to take on a serious - or even stern manner. You might not be able to wait to get out of one outfit or mind-set and relax. Yet you might also know that you have to take some responsibility for the developments that have taken place in the last two years. The really big question is whether or not you're prepared to carry these any further. In short, this could be crunch time.
Tuesday 8th August 2006
A Sagittarius' news (or news from an educational establishment) could lift your spirits. Though journeys and intense meetings may be warranted, you might now have a sense of progress. What you uncover whilst searching amongst a pile of receipts might also give you reason to think you're due a rebate - though you might first need to persuade someone that the effort to achieve this will be worthwhile.
Wednesday 9th August 2006
It might feel as though you're being tested to the limit by a Sagittarius (or someone with apparently boundless enthusiasm). This person's demands could be driving a wedge in another important relationship too. The silver lining in this situation could be the knowledge that it can't continue for much longer and awareness that you'll soon have time to get to grips with a project that's held fascination for months (a love interest?).
Thursday 10th August 2006
True, you may have fingers in too many pies: it's as likely that you don't know where to start and that you're exploring options. Of course, you're likely to confuse some people, it's probable though that you'll also inspire some to look at situations (and designs) from a different angle. Your marketing skills could surface.
Friday 11th August 2006
Creative juices seem set to flow fast - but could be forgotten if you don't make notes. You could come up with a superb marketing idea. It's as likely that you'll attract romantic interest (possibly even from someone of your own sign) and change social arrangements so that you can develop this interst further.
Saturday 12th August 2006
If you have a tendency to 'fly off the handle', you could do just that. To avoid having to perform a damage-limitation exercise later, you might do better to remove yourself from a difficult scene. It's whilst away from your usual habitat that you could run into an old friend whose passion for a sport could lead to you agreeing to watch a game - or even to take part.
Sunday 13th August 2006
You could seize an opportunity and effect a good deal. You might not actually need either the product or service though! A good friend may be amused at the way someone's apparently got one over on you. They probably won't be surprised when you turn this situation on its head though. An announcement by someone who's just returned from travelling could leave you speechless.
Monday 14th August 2006
You may be still be processing information. You might also be wondering what someone really knows about a situation. A group of friends (or, in business, a distributor) might suggest a novel approach. This, combined with an increased number of short journeys (and hence the chance to view the world from different perspectives) could really stimulate your imagination.
Tuesday 15th August 2006
Your 'head' might now be in a new place. You could shock both a neighbour and a sibling. You might also be seeking the truth behind an argument or the reason why someone (a business-person?) appears to be going out of their way to help you. For once you might surprise a few people by carefully going through paper-work (especially the small print). Assisting a younger person as they prepare for a training course might mean joining them on a short journey or writing a reference.
Wednesday 16th August 2006
It might seem that someone is so, so headstrong that there's no way of getting them to see a different point of view. The art may be in letting them think that an idea is their grand plan and not yours. Restraining yourself and resisting the temptation to 'go off on one' might not be easy. On the up-side, today's aspects are good for buying and selling.
Thursday 17th August 2006
Discussion with younger people (possibly students) might seem to have gone around in circles. It's now though that they may be speaking your kind of language. Resisting the urge to say 'I told you so', might not be easy! The good news is that your combined efforts offer a chance to both make desired changes and to improve your relationship. A potentially linked theme to all this is the sharing of secrets.
Friday 18th August 2006
Now that you know a little more as to why a certain person wants to keep matters secret, you may be even more willing to help. You might also be up to some surprising planning. In domestic affairs, you're likely to be far more ready for change than you've so far intimated. The first step could be to find out what's possible - perhaps by contacting a bank or agency.
Saturday 19th August 2006
You may have put a spanner in someone's works. They might not know your game-plan - and you might not be ready to divulge thoughts. You could disturb equilibrium with a travel suggestion - or by proposing a meeting early next week. Your own equilibrium could be disturbed by news from a work colleague who may have decided to effect a change that affects your routine.
Sunday 20th August 2006
With the Moon in your 'play' zone, you could decide to focus on leisure activities. Being near water would probably help recharge your batteries. Yet it could be that you can't move far from base: disorder at home might require attention. Tasks that have been left over from last week might need to be completed before a deadline (tomorrow). Midst all this, a magazine article could remind you of the desire to visit a place - and perhaps start the planning process.
Monday 21st August 2006
As with the other Water-babes of the zodiac, you could tune into the feel of shifting sands. You might sense that a colleague has lost interest in a project. You might also wonder just how long they intend to stick around. In turn, that might set you thinking about your plans - and where you'd like to be in a year's time. Meanwhile - and unusually - an inefficient clock could be driving you crazy.
Tuesday 22nd August 2006
Blood-sugar or even blood-pressure levels may not be as even as well balanced as you need them to be. You may be pushing yourself too hard and/or not looking after yourself: all which might be understandable if a younger person has managed to 'press all your buttons'. Help and understanding is likely to come from someone born under your own sign. You may be able to heal one another - or at least encourage one another to 'do better'.
Wednesday 23rd August 2006
The needs of someone about to go off to study (or travel) or who's undertaken a legal challenge, could be uppermost. You could feel outrage against a system that presents more obstacles than assistance. The New Moon in your opposite sign suggest that others might wind you up though. The art for you may be to take no action until you know more. Meanwhile, you may have imaginative - and many - ideas as to how to improve a knowledge base.
Thursday 24th August 2006
The prospect of clear, uncluttered space could act as motivation. Encouraged by a partner or really good friend, you could sort through papers and items no-longer needed. News about pending change at work (probably driven by financial restraints) might require you to agree to a new schedule. Given that you may have already placed other irons in a fire, this could all work to your advantage.
Friday 25th August 2006
Contact with an educational establishment seems likely. You may need to arrange a visit or make an appointment. The small print of a contract could be giving someone close cause for concern. They might also be worried about a younger person who's got on the wrong side of the law. It could fall to you to take their mind of things. It's possible you already have an invitation to an event that requires dressing in some style and would act as a pick-me-up for both of you.
Saturday 26th August 2006
You may want to make contact with someone you used to work with. You might also be apprehensive as what they'd say about your present situation. It may even feel as though you've made an appointment with a cosmic head-teacher. What you might welcome is a balanced assessment of your situation. It might surprise you to discover that they'd like to hear your views about what you'd do if you weren't limited by rules and regulations.
Sunday 27th August 2006
A gift for cold-calling could surface - and work particularly well if it's being used to aid a charity. It may be that some charity is needed at home. A pending move could be causing someone close more hassle than they can cope with. They might welcome your assistance. A Libra friend's news could prompt you to think differently about an amateur-professional status and how best you can help someone move between the two states.
Monday 28th August 2006
Helping someone who's on the move could take many forms: anything from flexing your credit card to helping load a van. Getting your hands dirty as you move items seems likely. Yet you might enjoy the rediscovery of items long-hidden. You may be reminded of a romance - and tempted to see if you can still fit into an outfit last worn when you really were 'madly in love'.
Tuesday 29th August 2006
In theory, this could be one of your 'lucky' days. It's perhaps more likely that you'll stock up points with the universe by helping others - in particular, someone who's about to make a move. There might be moments when it seems as though you're 'moving mountains'. (Take care if lifting heavy objects). A younger person might bring you good news though: giving you cause for minor celebration.
Wednesday 30th August 2006
It's possible that what you're dredging up from your memory bank is creating a wave that's disturbing someone you work with. They might not like being reminded of a system that went wrong. This, though, might be your ammunition to ensure that a repeat isn't even considered. At home, the wistful look someone gives to an item that's been moved could prompt you into thinking of a way to record fresh history.
Thursday 31st August 2006
Recording history could be important. Whether taking minutes at a meeting or recording someone moving from one venture to another (video or photograph), creating a story through pictures could be important. You might be as enthusiastic about how an expert made a documentary and the legacy of a historian. You might even be asked to look after old documents and sepia photographs and to help someone make sense of them.
Weekly Horoscopes
Week Beginning Sunday 6th August 2006
It could feel as though you're closing - if not slamming - a door behind you on Monday. That action in itself could be energising however, so that on Tuesday you could surprise someone with a feat of efficiency that they hadn't associated with you. Though this could put you on collision course with someone (a Libra or Aquarius) who might wonder why you didn't take this action earlier, it could equally endear you to a Gemini or Sagittarius who can now see that you have both vision - and a plan. Of course, you might forget what that is on Thursday (as is your style!) but by Friday, (and with Mercury now caught up to a position held in the early part of July), you may be accepting a new marketing plan, a change of image and a fresh commercial arrangement.
Week Beginning Sunday 13th August 2006
For the moment, focusing on health maintenance might be a good move. This doesn't mean that there's anything wrong - more that this is the time of year when scrutinising your routine should be easy. This Monday you might have reason to make contact with a health professional anyway: prompting you to make a further appointment for an 'annual service'. Even if on holiday you might be reminded of a drink or food that's clearly good for you and the benefits of an exercise routine that tends to be forgotten at other times. Rejuvenating could be high priority on Wednesday. Such action could extend to waste-management and a conscious effort to recycle and to coerce others to revisit a plan that was dropped some weeks back but which might still have mileage. All this could lead to an exceptionally busy Friday as you try to bring together various strands.
Week Beginning Sunday 20th August 2006
An all-at-sea feeling could affect a few signs on Monday. Even you might wonder if the magic touch has been lost. It might also seem that too many people are trying to build castles in the air. It might also be that you're trying to carry too heavy a load in chivvying along both yourself and others. Yet the situation could reverse: partly because of news reaching you on Tuesday and partly because Wednesday's New Moon (in your opposite sign), could coincide with a fresh approach being offered by someone who, until now, has shown little interest in new technology and how it could be used to speed a process. This could lead interesting conversation midweek and the outline of a plan which, though it might not bring riches, could offer an improvement on the current state of affairs. Your new role then might be to give them access to information you've been collecting - albeit in a haphazard sort of way.
Week Beginning Sunday 27th August 2006
Perhaps more than any other zodiac sign, those born under the sign of Pisces understand the nature of 'sea change'. You've probably 'smelt the salt in the wind' for some months now. Early this week, the potential for great waves in your working scene may be apparent. Though initially exhilarating, even you might wear a worry-frown at moments when you're not sure if the surf is going to be too high for you, or whether you'll end up becalmed and lost at sea. Indeed, it may not be until Friday when the Sun and Mercury align in your opposite sign and a partner or close colleague declares their hand, that you have a sense of what others intend to do. What's likely to be encouraging then is affirmation of the strength of someone's allegiance to you and the effort they're willing to make to guide you through the waves. Put another way: a 'coastguard' may be aware of your plight and ready to render assistance as necessary.
Weekend (Love) Horoscopes
The Weekend of Friday 4th August 2006
As with many other signs, you may have arrived at the end of a chapter. In your case, working relationships are most likely to have been affected. There might still be 'good-byes' to be said. Even as these doors are closing (possibly requiring formal dining-out finishes), others may be opening. You may be the one who's pushing hard to open a new line of communication on Sunday. It may be that you're now fed up of the combination of responsibilities, older or authoritative figures and deadlines and that you now need to be with those who appear free and easy and willing to think 'out of the box'. This could lead to an interesting exchange. At the very least it could make a party more enjoyable and possibly bring a quirky interlude your way. In this, you may have reason to be grateful to a Capricorn who makes the introduction.
The Weekend of Friday 11th August 2006
A little storm could blow up this weekend - and yes, you have experienced a similar one before. Mars is now in your opposite sign and, on Sunday, will be directly opposite Uranus which is in your sign. Because the other planets have moved on too, what occurs won't be an action replay of 2004. What is likely that you've now grown used to carrying a more exciting and excitable aura around you and that others are now more wary of you than they once were. This doesn't mean that you still can't catch someone unawares: it's perhaps more the case that you new ploys are needed. As of Friday, awareness that whatever you do leaves a legacy and that whilst you're able to forget and move on, might clearly affect others don't have the same happy knack, could impact on you. So, you may be slow to burn over the next few days, but, when you do 'ignite' and determine who you want to be with, you could be off like a rocket - and happy to accept the consequences.
The Weekend of Friday 18th August 2006
From 21.03 GMT on Friday night, the Moon will make its monthly journey through your play zone: when moonlight could play a BIG role. Romantic opportunities could be plentiful. Surfing emotional waves seems likely. Initially this might be done under the guise of playful mystery and could involve a meeting with a stranger (whilst travelling?). It's not that this relationship is necessarily set to go anywhere: it might simply be that the encounter teases brain (love) cells into action. This, coupled with a little 'relationship musical-chairs' on Saturday could be just the playground you need. Whether reviving an old partnership or stimulating a new one, you could do the Pisces thing and behave like a chameleon as you adjust to a series of curious situations. It could be next Thursday before you make sense of this - but, by then, you might at least know which bond is holding you tightest and which you want to preserve.
The Weekend of Friday 25th August 2006
With the Moon at the opposite end of the zodiac to your sign it might seem that everything you want is 'out there' - but just out of reach. It might also be that you feel you can't go out to play: either because you're looking after your health or because there's too much work to do. Of course, you could enjoy some of the activities (especially if they involve craft or design). However, in terms of romance, it could be that finding the time and place isn't easy - unless your intended partner understands your routine. This doesn't mean that there's no room at all for affairs of the heart (indeed, you could be the object of someone's full attention). It's just rather more likely that you'll be tied up with other matters and that it will be a couple of days yet before you can give bask in that kind of activity. This is unlikely to be a problem if you're in a long-term relationship. If you're still seeking the 'right' one though, you may need to remind yourself frequently that good unions are built on friendships first and that there's plenty of opportunity to develop these over the next few days.
Monthly Horoscope
The Month of August 2006
At the end of August Jupiter (one of your ruling planets) makes contact with Uranus (now moving through your sign). Under normal circumstances this would seem a favourable signal. But these are peculiar times; two days later Saturn and Neptune (your other ruling planet) oppose one another. This latter aspect is traditionally viewed as negative. With two strong and contrasting aspects in play within a short space of time, it's probable that this month will prove dramatically different and that you might conclude the month in a very different position to the start. It's likely to be apparent before 7th, that the 'wheels have come off' an enterprise and that only super-human effort can put them back on. You may have decided you really don't want to expend energy in that direction any longer. Indeed, by the Full Moon (9th) you could be pulled in a different direction entirely. It may be that this option promises to be either more lucrative or less draining. So, though 4th-7th, 11th, 21st, 26th and 31st might offer financial challenges that you don't enjoy, you might also be blessed with positive money signals on 16th, 17th, 23rd, 24th, 28th and 29th.
