THE WEEK AHEAD WITH Oscar Cainer

August’s early New Moon is followed by a Full Moon opposite Venus, suggesting something beautiful emerging from unseen efforts. At the end of the month, a ‘Blue’ New Moon forms a Grand Trine, ushering in a wave of optimism.

ARIES MAR 21 – APR 20

When bad things happen to good people and good things happen to bad ones, no wonder it sometimes feels as if life is unfair. Yet who’s to say that we mere mortals are properly qualified to know what is ultimately going to be good or bad? Judging other people and their lives is a dangerous business. To achieve success in August, you need to rise above a deep-rooted way of viewing the world. In such an encouraging cosmic climate, you can afford to be positive. You’re on the road to a prosperous future. A new month! A powerful New Moon! A forecast that could transform your life!

TAURUS APR 21 – MAY 21

Rather than searching for clues this month, just have a good look at what’s going on. When you actually think about what you can see, it will become clear that a picture is forming. When we want things to be a certain way, it’s easy to overlook signs and suggestions that appear to be opposed to fulfilling it. Powerful cosmic events indicate that if you’re able to lay down your preconceptions and are prepared to acknowledge your reality (even if it seems to go against your vision), you’ll make great gains in August. There’s so much to tell you about August, and you’re going to like it! Do yourself a favour. Call 0906 751 5602.

GEMINI MAY 22 – JUN 22

There’s not much that escapes you: you have eagle eyes which can find needles in haystacks. Yet sometimes, like a goddess or god who has come down to mix with mortals for a while, you give up your special powers so that you can experience life like the rest of us. This month, when you need your analytical skills, the combination of powerful lunar influences indicate that you can draw on your more hidden qualities. By trusting in your intuitive skills, you’ll be able to clear up a mystery. August begins and ends with a New Moon! Your month holds great potential for positive change. Call 0906 751 5603.

CANCER JUN 23 – JUL 23

With your ruling planet taking centre stage this month, you can trust that when something is right, it’s impossible to lose it. There are different ways to be cautious. When we sense danger, its wise to take action to avoid, or lessen, its effect. Yet, if we become so nervous that we’re frightened of our own shadows, things have gone too far. Although you’re dealing with a challenge that seems urgent, it’s not an emergency. Trust in the good nature of the cosmos and you’ll appreciate the magic it brings. It’s August! For news on how you can benefit from the opportunities in this exciting cosmic climate, call 0906 751 5604.

LEO JUL 24 – AUG 23

Venus will be in Leo for a large part of August, adding a sweet melody to the excitement created by the month’s lunar activities. It’s going to feel as if you’re being led on to a celestial dance floor. Get ready to experience some heart-whirling moments, head-spinning twirls and emotional swings and turns as you waltz, glide and samba through the month. With both your emotional and material prospects on the upward turn, all you have to do is be sensitive to the rhythms. Then you’ll be free to enjoy the beat. Your in-depth August forecast could be one of the most rewarding calls you ever make. Call 0906 751 5605.

VIRGO AUG 24 – SEP 23

Where does your intelligence come from? Is it nature or nurture? While this debate continues to divide academics, let me assure you that astrological signs have no influence on IQ. No one sign is cleverer than the others. There are times, though, when our minds work more sharply, our ideas seem brighter and our plans seem to make a great deal of sense. You’ll know this feeling in August. You have the company of the guardian angel of ingenuity watching over you. Ask for help if you need it.

To hear valuable information about the changes you can implement in August, call for your month-ahead forecast: 0906 751 5606.

LIBRA SEP 24 – OCT 23

The start of the month is a good moment to ponder that riddle about the chicken and the egg. Which do you think came first? While you have a think, I’ll sing a little tune... tra la la la la... dooby be doo... have you worked out the right answer yet? Here’s another question: how much of your life is down to choice and how much of it is predestined? More music? Shoo be doo wop... doo wop... August isn’t going to bring you answers to this kind of question, but you’ll find it easy to sort out almost any other issues.

A powerful New Moon marks the start of an exciting month. Take advantage of the cosmic climate. Call 0906 751 5607.

SCORPIO OCT 24 – NOV 22

The way you relate to the material world can be a source of exasperation. Recently, you’ve found that although you often come close to success, something happens which thwarts your plans. On the rare occasions when you do manage to achieve what you’ve set out to achieve, you tend to put that down to a ‘ fluke’. August, with so much exciting lunar activity, brings much more than a pleasing development or two. Get ready for a new understanding about how to create more advantages which lead to success. Welcome to August! Your powerful prediction for the month is ready. For inspiring insight, call 0906 751 5608.

SAGITTARIUS NOV 23 – DEC 21

As soon as we hear someone shouting we become defensive. Even if it has nothing to do with us, we can’t help but wonder what’s going on... if anyone’s in trouble. If there’s anything we need to do. We enter a state of high-vigilance, even when we realise that they were just calling out to let someone know that they had arrived. This month, don’t be put off from exploring a potentially successful idea because it’s being put to you in an off-putting tone. Put your focus on content rather than style in August. August is due to be amazing! For four-minutes of news that could change your life, pick up the phone! Call 0906 751 5609.

CAPRICORN DEC 22 – JAN 20

I don’t know any kids that don’t like chocolate. But, do they like it because they know, on some deep level, that it’s good for them? We grown-ups tend to think that we know what’s bad for us, but we also overlook what’s worse – depriving ourselves of what we like because we think it’s going to make us unhealthy. They say that a little of what you fancy does you good! And a lot... well, that depends on what it is. This month, there’s no reason to think that what you want is going to end in trouble. Be generous to you. For encouraging news about what August holds for you, call your month-ahead forecast: 0906 751 5610.

AQUARIUS JAN 21 – FEB 19

It’s interesting that some people are full of a sense of self-importance, while others are so humble they almost apologise for what they do. Everyone has parts of themselves that are stronger than others. You’ve got plenty to be proud of. Recently, you’ve been focusing on what you perceive to have been an inadequate way of dealing with a relationship. You feel as if you could have done better. Get ready to be proved wrong! The events of August bring inspiring communication. You’re back on the right track. August starts with a powerful New Moon. Make your dreams come true. Call for your four-minute forecast: 0906 751 5611.

PISCES FEB 20 – MAR 20

What separates yesterday from today? The distinctions between the past, present and future are like veils; we can see glimpses through them, but they prevent us from reaching either forwards or backwards. Over the course of this month, you find yourself in a rare position of being able to revisit an important part of your history and change your understanding of a decisive event. The consequences will lead to a sense of freedom and a whole, new, brighter possibility in the near future. These are exciting times. Even if you don’t usually call for your in-depth phone forecast, there’s excellent news in your August prediction. Call 0906 751 5612.
