HOROSCOPES

YOUR HOROSCOPES FOR THE WEEK AUGUST 6 – 12

VIRGO

Aug 24 – Sep 23 Whatever it is you want to do, be it falling in love, building a house or travelling, you can make it happen. This is an important week if you want to move forward quickly in your career. Put yourself out there and show the world your talents and attributes – doing this will get you what you want.

LIBRA

Sep 24 – Oct 23

There is a danger that you could blow things out of proportion, so it is important to listen to what people say. Think before you speak and get your facts right. At the same time, you are feeling sensitive, so don’t be too hard on yourself. Those in relationships need to be particularly careful at this time.

SCORPIO

Oct 24 – Nov 22 Nobody will complain if you take charge! You just have to say the word and everyone is right behind you. It is the perfect week to organise a party, some kind of adventure or a gathering – whatever you suggest, there is enthusiasm. No matter what you do this week, you will exceed expectations.

SAGITTARIUS

Nov 23 – Dec 22

The chemistry is wonderful and the sparks are flying. You can feel it and see it in the other person’s eyes. Do something about it. Make contact, connect – give this chemistry the opportunity to develop. Don’t be surprised if they come to you and when they do, let romance have a chance.

CAPRICORN

Dec 23 – Jan 20

Someone has gone beyond the call of duty to help you out but you may not realise it straightaway. Cut to the chase this week and keep things simple and make sure you don’t cram too much in. There are always some things that can wait for another time. You don’t have to do it all right now.

AQUARIUS

Jan 21 – Feb 19

Keep your wallet firmly closed as this is not a week to have money easily accessible. You are impulsive but also very aware of the need to save your money for an important project, travel or venture. Stay strong. You won’t regret it when you reach that goal. There is some good luck coming your way.

PISCES

Feb 20 – Mar 20

You will be in a very feisty mood and not let people overshadow you or your ideas. Make sure you have your say, then if people are not on board with your ideas, let them go their own way. If you are contemplating a business for yourself, especially something small and from home, then you are on to a winner.

ARIES

Mar 21 – Apr 20 People around you need to know they are important and that you love them; take the time no matter how busy you are to dial their number or send a text. Even better would be to visit or arrange to meet somewhere. A few minutes out of your day is going to mean so much to them.

TAURUS

Apr 21 – May 21

Get out there and be competitive, even if that isn’t your style, although it is very rare for you not to take up a challenge. If you are sportsoriented, or in a competitive field of any kind, you will probably be the first one to finish. Once the competition is over, make the most of what the success brings you.

GEMINI

May 22 – Jun 21

Friends from all over the world will contact you and your inbox is full of invitations. This is the perfect time to accept them as people will be delighted to see you. Make plans, do some sums and then do it. You haven’t had an adventure for a long time. Love is also in the air. It’s time to make things happen.

CANCER

Jun 22 – Jul 23

It is the perfect time to up and go, especially when it comes to your home or living environment. Have a look around and see what else is out there; you will be pleasantly surprised. If moving house is not practical, then you might want to knock down a wall or two and make some major changes.
