AUGUST 2019
ARIES (MARCH 21 - APRIL 19) Planning fun things to do, hobbies, dating, activities with family are highlighted this month. Travel with creative or romantic overtones and plenty of entertainment. Try to take some much needed R&R before you gear up for new professional and career ideas in the fall. Watch diet. TAURUS (APRIL 20 - MAY 20) You may pull the brakes on your extensive travel and social life to bunker down and tackle unfinished projects around the house. It may be time to clean out the garage or tackle the patio. The planet Jupiter moves through your money zone bringing unexpected financial windfalls. GEMINI (MAY 21 - JUNE 21) Your ruling planet is in direct motion giving you the energy and drive to put time into your personal growth, health regime or acquiring professional credentials. Mixing business and pleasure is not out of the question, just avoid unconventional financials moves without a contract. CANCER (JUNE 22 - JULY 22) You will feel less stress and pressure now that we are moving away from the last lunar eclipse. The planets begin aligning in your income sector spotlighting financial opportunities, investing and property. This is the perfect time to get a raise and promotion and move up the career ladder.
LEO (JULY 23 - AUGUST 22) Happy Birthday Lions! You begin your new solar year with changes in your outlook and advancement in your own interests. If you have been carrying any personal or family obligation, you will be relieved of it this month. Several stellar aspects give you the ability to focus on plans and goals. VIRGO (AUGUST 23 - SEPTEMBER 22) Emphasis in your solar twelfth house focuses on healing and self-examination before your birth month. A holistic approach to wellness mentally, physical and spiritually will give you a good foundation as you enter a new chapter in your life. A major change that furthers ambitions is ahead. LIBRA (SEPTEMBER 23 - OCTOBER 23) Love may walk in the door now just when you least expected it. As the Cosmos bless your eleventh house, you are headed toward a new future. A change of direction is in store that may have to do with shedding responsibilities of being a caretaker. A whole new world opens up by December of this year. SCORPIO (OCTOBER 24 - NOVEMBER 21) As the planet Uranus transits in Taurus it impacts your personal relationships and partnerships. This planetary aspect sheds old ties and makes you year for freedom and to go “solo”. It may be the perfect time to dissolve old associations that are not beneficial and work on new contacts. SAGITTARIUS (NOVEMBER 22 - DECEMBER 21) Sign up for a course, lecture, or seminar, as your ruling planet gives you the urge to reach new heights intellectually. You are getting ready to get more credentials either academically or licensing for an existing career or a new position in September. You are getting ready for the spotlight. CAPRICORN (DECEMBER 22 - JANUARY 19) This is a serious cycle of putting all financial matters in order before you begin any new venture. You will try your hand at several jobs and investments, before getting a rhythm of what is the best fit for you. Your personal life remains in flux due to constant work and travel demands. AQUARIUS (JANUARY 20 - FEBRUARY 19) The full Moon in your sign on the 15th makes you restless for change. Partnerships either personal or professional and contractual matters get activated this month. You may be approached by an employment recruiter for that job change you’ve been thinking about. Staying home is appealing. PISCES (FEBRUARY 19 - MARCH 20) Cosmic vibrations help you improve job performance giving you the drive you need to streamline your schedule and step up efficiency. You get the green light to do creative work that may involve an art projects. It’s time to get an edge on alternative health interests including yoga or pilates.
