Horoscopes for August 2016
AUGUSTS PLANETS, AND YOU 2016:
LEO: BEST DAYS: 2-3-12-13-21-22-29-30
Personal power and independence are at their maximum. This is a time to have things your way, to create the conditions of your own happiness. You’re at your maximum personal creativity now. So make these changes that need to be made, Later on it will be more difficult.
It is wonderful to be strong and powerful. This is a great gift. But there’s a downside to it. If personal power is abused, it can bring faster and stronger karmic kickbacks. Most of the ills that we see in the world are not due to ‘disempowerment’ but rather the reverse – to the abuse of power. So use your power wisely and lawfully.
Love is still happy this month. For singles there is a significant meeting on the 15th or 16th, but this month is happy even for those in a relationship. There is more romance with the beloved. The love life is happy but there are a few glitches and delays. Still there’s no need to rush into anything just yet. Let love develop as it will.
The month ahead is very prosperous as well. This is really the headline of the month. There’s a cosmic conspiracy at this time to prosper you. Great geniuses are scheming, plotting and planning the best ways to achieve this. You are in a yearly financial peak and for many of you this will be a lifetime peak. You have the Midas touch this month. From the 22nd onwards the focus is on finance, as it should be. Mercury goes retrograde at the end of the month –on the 30th- so try to wrap up important purchases or investments before then. Prosperity will happen even during the retrograde, just a bit slower.
Health was excellent last month and is excellent in the month ahead.
VIRGO: BEST DAYS: 4-5-14-15-23-24-31
This is a spiritual period. Many people fear solitude, but there are times when it is necessary and, this is that kind of time. People tend to feel naturally reclusive at this time. These are spiritual reasons for this. It is in the solitude that spiritual breakthroughs and insights happen. Rest assured, this solitude is not for ever and not a trend for the year or for life.
The month ahead is happy and successful. The cosmos supports you and your personal goals. It is a time for being independent, for standing on your own two feet and for having your way in life. Make the changes necessary that bring you happiness. This may stress a current relationship, but this stress is also temporary. You and the beloved have to work harder to bridge your differences. You’re seeing things from opposite perspectives. Neither of you are always right or wrong; sometimes one is right, sometimes the other is. If these opposite perspectives can be bridged the relationship will be more powerful than before. Make your changes before the 30th when Mercury is going retrograde.
The Sun enters your sign on the 22nd. This gives a supernatural, otherworldly kind of glamour to the image. It gives power to shape the body and image, as you desire it to be. Those of you into yoga or other spiritual-type exercises are better at them this month. A guru or guru figure is coming into your life.
Venus will move into your sign on the 5th. This adds beauty, style and grace to the image, and it also brings financial windfalls and opportunity. There are very nice paydays happening between the 20th and the 24th, and between the 26th to the 28th.
This month increases your confidence and self-esteem. There will also be career opportunities. You look rich and successful this month. You dress that way and others see you that way too.
Health is good all month, but especially after the 22nd.
LIBRA: BEST DAYS: 7-8-16-17-18-25-26
This month you cover a lot of territory, that you make rapid progress and have good confidence and self-esteem this August.
Love is close to home, in the neighbourhood, and there is no need to travel far and wide in search of it. You are probably seeing people outside your normal social sphere this month – but the action is in your neighbourhood. Once again intellectuals – teachers, writers, journalists, sales and marketing people, attract you. Ease of communication and mental compatibility are important turn-ons in love. Love and social opportunities happen in educational-type settings – at a lecture, a school function, the library or the bookstore. Foreigners are also catching your eye. Love is good all month but especially on the 30thand 31st. The personal appearance shines then.
The love life is good for friends and for children and children figures in your life. The 15th and 16th seem especially good.
The month ahead is prosperous and this is just the beginning. Prosperity will happen for the rest of the year ahead – and well into next year. The financial intuition is excellent. Financial opportunities come, as you get involved in charities and altruistic causes. It happens when you’re not thinking too much about yourself. The 16, 17th, 26th and 28th are nice paydays.
A spiritual breakthrough will change your financial outlook (as well as other outlooks in your life). Much of your growth and development will be internal this month, but it will become manifest externally in due course.
Your spiritual interests are stronger than your work interests and this could create some problems at the job. You’ll have to force yourself to pay more attention to work. It is very important that you have work that is in harmony with your spiritual ideals and interests. Job seekers have to work harder this month.
Health is good right now, and it will get even better next month. Take it a bit easier on the 20th and 21st, though.
SCORPIO: BEST DAYS: 1-9-10-19-20-27-28
Personal power and independence will get stronger and stronger this month. The cosmic energy is flowing towards you rather than away from you. You have the power to make changes that need to be made. You have the power to have things your way. If others don’t go along with you, go it alone. Your personal initiative matters now. Don’t compromise. Create the conditions that make for your happiness.
You’re still in a very successful period, a yearly career peak. This goes on until the 22nd. Last month, on the 22nd, the health became more delicate, and remains so until the 22nd of this month. The most important thing is to rest and relax more to maintain high energy levels. One way to do this is to keep the focus o the essentials in your life and to let go of the trivia. You may be experimenting with new techniques and new therapies. You’re going outside your natural sphere when it comes to health.
Job seekers too are going outside their normal sphere looking for work.
The month ahead will be prosperous – a mini yearly financial peak. This suggests the ability to pay down debt or to borrow – depending on your need. It shows that money can come from insurance claims, tax refunds or estates. From the 26th to the 28th not only increases earnings, but brings partnership or joint venture opportunities. Financial increase and opportunity can come at a party or gathering – or through the current love.
If you are already employed there are opportunities for overtime or for jobs on the side. If you are unemployed, job opportunities can come towards you.
It will be a strong social period. New and happy friendships are being made. Fondest hopes and wishes are coming to pass. Singles will find love opportunities, as they get involved with groups and group activities.
SAGITTARIUS: BEST DAYS: 2-3-12-13-21-22-29-30
Your main challenge will be to maintain high energy levels in the midst of all the activity, especially from the 22nd onwards. It’s great to succeed and this is happening – but not at the expense of your health. You can manage to have both if you deep your focus on the essentials and let go of trivia. You can also enhance the health by paying more attention to the heart until the 5th. Eating right is important after the 5th.
You are still in travel mode this month. Until the 22nd there is pleasure travel, although afterwards it seems related to the career.
The career is enhanced by your willingness to travel, and also by your willingness to mentor others. Your good work ethic is important. Your social contacts and likeability are also important this month. It is not enough to be competent in what you do; you must also be able to get on with others.
You get things done in a hurry. However, as our regular readers undoubtedly know, this can create problems if you’re not careful. Watch the temper and lies as well.
There is a feeling of deficiency in the home and in family members. Perhaps they feel neglected. A parent or parent figure feels this especially – and feels low self-esteem.
Finances are still excellent until the 23rd. There is a lot of financial help available and a lot of support. Perhaps the most important development this month is financial clarity and direction now. The financial judgement is sharper. After the 23rd, finances are more stressful. It seems that your focus on the career is distracting you from the money issues. Basically you just have to work harder to achieve your financial goals than usual. The stresses are short term.
Love is high on your agenda and you’re paying attention. Singles have romantic opportunities as they pursue their career goals and with people involved in the career. Much of the socializing this month is career related. (office, company or industry events). And you’re attracted to people of high status and prestige.
CAPRICORN: BEST DAYS: 4-5-14-15-23-24-31
Earnings are still good this month – especially until the 22nd, but most likely there are delays and glitches involved. Try not to make matters worse by being sloppy in your financial transactions. Online payments can be tricky as each website has different procedures. Sometimes computer glitches will register duplicate payments, sometimes no payment. Care should be taken when writing cheques too. All the little details of finance need to be handled ‘just so’. This is a time to review the financial life. See where improvements can be made and get ready to put your plans into action.
You are in a great period for paying down debt or for making it – depending on your need. If you have a viable business idea this is a good time to approach outside investors for backing.
Your libido is higher and more sexual activity is likely. Age is not really an issue. Whatever your age libido will be stronger than usual. You have been involved in personal transformation for some years now, this month until the 22nd. Is especially good for these kinds of projects. Time to give birth to the person that you want to be.
Happily you and the beloved are in better financial harmony and are cooperating. He or she is likely to be more generous with you.
This is an excellent month to take stock of your possessions and get rid of the things that you don’t need or use. A good house cleaning is in order. It would be good to get rid of emotional ad mental patterns that are no longer useful to you. Clear the decks so that the new and the better can come in.
Health is good this month and gets even better after the 22nd. You can enhance it further by eating right and giving more attention to the small intestine.
There is a happy travel or educational opportunity from the 20th to the 24th. Job seekers have good opportunities over that period.
AQUARIUS: BEST DAYS: 7-8-16-17-18-25-26
Things ease up a bit this month, but the focus is still on career and outer goals. Love is still the main interest until the 22nd. But afterwards there is much career success happening.
The challenge is to gain mental clarity on your career goals. You need a good sense of direction here. Happy opportunities are coming to you after the 22nd, but they need more study.
Personal earnings are stressful. You have to work harder to achieve your goals. Earnings happen but are more slowly. The good news is that the spouse, partner or current love is prospering; he or she is in a yearly financial peak and is picking up the slack. This is the kind of period where the financial interest of others, are more important than your own. As you support others, as you help them to attain their financial goals, your own supply will happen naturally – albeit with some delays.
Aquarians are independent thinkers. It is normal for them to think ‘outside the box’ in unconventional ways. This month, though, you’re doing this even more so than usual. Siblings and sibling figures are also spending more time outside their normal sphere.
Avoid travel if possible on the 20th and 21st. The 26 to the 28th is a much better time for this; a happy travel opportunity comes during this latter period. For students (college level or college bound) there is success in their studies. Good news arrives.
Children or children figures in your life should stay out of harm’s way on the 14th and 15th. There is no need for them to undertake any high stress kinds of activities. If they are of appropriate age there is romance from the 26th to the 28th. Even younger children will make new friends at that time.
Health still needs some attention until the 22nd. Health improves from the 22nd onwards.
PISCES: BEST DAYS: 1-9-10-19-20-27-28
Love is still happy this month. The love and social life has been important all year and becomes even more important in the month ahead. On the 22nd you enter a yearly love and social peak, and in many cases this will be a lifetime peak (much depends on your age). It’s as if there is a cosmic conspiracy to get you to the church. Wedding bells or an engagement wouldn’t be a surprise. But it need not happen is this exact way. There can be relationships that are ‘like’ marriages instead.
You get along with many different kinds of people. Your social sphere is broad and inclusive. There are intellectuals, influential people, healers, health professionals and artistic types. The 20th to the 24th and the 26th to the 28th seem especially good.
Your challenge is in love – as it has been all year – it is to balance your interests with the interests of the beloved, to be able to love and cooperate in spite of opposite perspectives.
Career looks successful and active this month. You are active in a physical kind of way. Your career receives much stimulation this month – positive stimulation – especially from the 20th to the 24 and the 26th to the 28th. These are successful career periods. You are working hard for all this good, to be sure, but the opportunities are happening.
Health however, is a major concern from the 22nd onwards. Yes the month ahead is active and there are many obligations. But it is better to take voluntary rests than to be forced into rest because of a health problem. You can handle the social and career whirl if you pace yourself and let go of the trivial things in your life. A good night’s sleep will cure many a problem. Enhance the health through more attention in the heart.
Discords in love or with friends should be avoided as they affect your physical health. Should a problem occur (God Forbid), restore harmony as quickly as possible.
ARIES: BEST DAYS: 2-3-12-13-21-22-29-30
You have been in an independent state of mind since the beginning of the year. Hopefully, by now, you’ve used your enhanced personal power to create pleasing conditions for yourself. Now it is time to let go of self-interest and focus on others. It is now time to take a vacation from yourself. Your ability to get on with others is the most important thing. Now your social skills will bring you what pure ability can’t, so it is time to develop these skills. Your good is dependent on others and their goodwill. Put others first and your own good will come to you very naturally.
It is time to enjoy life. Time to have some fun. Time to enjoy the money that you have and spend it on leisure activities (according to what you can afford). It is time to be more creative too. You have special abilities to handle children and children figures in your life these days too. There is much we can learn from them – especially on how to enjoy life. It is said that an adult can’t really enjoy life to the fullest. The adult has too many cares, worries and plans. It is the child that is truly joyous. This is a good month to get more in touch with your inner child.
Love is happy this month. You have been more carefree about it since mid-July. Even children and children figures in your life are having a happy social life. If they are of appropriate age, romance is likely – especially on the 15th and 16th. For singles there are happy romantic opportunities from the 26th to the 28th. For those already in a relationship this period shows more romance within the relationship.
You’ve had wonderful job aspects all year, and this month they get even better. Job seekers have good fortune and even those already employed and have offers of better jobs.
Health is good this month. If you’re making important changes make them before the 30th.
Speculations have been favourable since July 12th. However after the 5th money comes the old-fashioned way through hard work – generally through your job. Extra money can be earned through ‘side jobs’ from the 5th onwards 9and these opportunities will come).
TAURUS: BEST DAYS: 4-5-14-15-23-24-31
This is a time to get the home and family life in right order. Like last month you’re doing a great job in balancing home and career and making a success of both.
This is a period for making psychological-type breakthrough. Your understanding of your moods and feelings – and those of others – is increased. Those of you involved in psychological therapies make good progress. It is normal to feel nostalgic, to remember the ‘good old’ or ‘bad old’ days. It is normal to be more interested in history too. The past calls to us when it has lessons to teach us and this is a time to learn them.
Personal power is lessened now because less is needed. Your good comes through other people and their good graces now, not because of your innate abilities or through personal initiative. Your social graces are the important thing now. Let others have their way – so long as it isn’t destructive – and your own good, will follow naturally. It is now more difficult to create the conditions you desire. You can, of course, but it will take greater effort. Now, it is better to live with the conditions you created in the past few months and make the best of them. If you have built well, life is pleasant. If there are flaws in your creation, take note and when the planetary power shifts back you’ll be able to make the changes that need to be made.
This is party time. This is a time to enjoy life, a time for more leisure and recreation. You’ve been having fun the whole year, but this month even more so. Happy financial opportunities will come as you enjoy your life. Perhaps you meet an important contact at the golf course or theatre, or at a resort.
Children in your life are prospering and seem supportive. If they are very young, they motivate you. Speculations are favourable until the 30th. Avoid them afterwards. There are nice paydays from the 20th to the 24th and from the 26th to the 28th.
Health is greatly improved after the 22nd. Love is much happier than last month – especially from the 5th onwards.
GEMINI: BEST DAYS: 7-8-16-17-18-25-26
You’re always an intellectual star, Gemini, but this month even more so than usual. You always absorb information quickly-and especially so nowadays. You only need to glance at a book and you pretty much know what’s in it. For students this is a good time to take tests; results should be better than usual.
There is still much career instability and change happening. Only time will sort things out. So, keep the focus on the home and family especially from the 22nd onwards. It is the ‘midnight hour’ of your year – a powerful time. Career is important to you but now it is good to work on it by the methods of night, rather than y the methods of day. Visualize, dream and affirm what you want and allow the power of the universe to make these things happen in its own way. So long as you don’t doubt or deny, your visualizations and affirmations must happen.
This is a month for coming to terms with the past, for resolving old traumas and experiences. These are the things that hold a person back. It is good to give attention here. Those of you involved in psychological therapy should have a good month. Many might find it useful to begin therapy.
Love is very complicated this month. On the one hand, your love receives positive stimulation. This should bring romantic opportunity for singles. So love opportunity comes, but it gets tested. Existing relationships get tested even further than they have been (this has been going on all year). The testing of love is not a pleasant experience.
However, much good can come from it. It is only through this kind of severe testing that we learn if love is real or not. Good relationships will survive. It will take work and effort but they’re likely to survive. It is the mediocre ones – the essentially flawed ones – that are likely to dissolve.
Health needs a lot more watching from the 22nd onwards. Make sure you get enough rest. It might be wise to spend more time at a health spa or book some massages or reflexology treatments. Keep the focus on the really important things in your life and let go of trivia.
CANCER: BEST DAYS: 1-9-10-19-20-27-28
Enjoy!
Your personal power right now helps you make the changes that need to be made. Have things your way. You know what’s best for you, so go for it. The “force” is with you now.
One of the problems with too much ease is boredom. So, the cosmos in its infinite wisdom throws in a few challenges to keep things interesting and to keep you on your toes. Drive more carefully on the 1st, 2nd, 7th, 10th and 11th. Cars and communication equipment get tested. The dream life can be foreboding during this period too.
This is not such a great month for foreign travel – do it only if you must. College-level students have to work harder in school. Legal issues can swallow you up.
A month good for pampering the body, and enjoying other physical delights. A very good time for getting your body and image in the right shape. And it is still good, until the 12th – for buying clothing and personal accessories. Personal appearance shines. Love is much happier from the 12th onwards, but like last month, there is no need to rush into anything.
The month ahead is prosperous. Money and financial opportunity pursue you. There is not much that you need to do; money will find you wherever you are. Just go about your daily business. The focus is on finance and by the cosmic law; we get what we focus on.
Your career goals have been more or less achieved and now it is time to focus on the home, family and your emotional well being. You’re in the nighttime of your year. During the night we gather strength for the next day. If you want your next career push to go well, get a good night’s rest now.
