OSCAR CAINER

TWO weeks ago we talked about how the story of the Solar eclipse of Friday 13th was just the beginning of a dramatic celestial saga. Though it may be rumbling on a while, we’re yet to witness the final act. The last in this rare trilogy of eclipses arrives around two weeks from now. The transformation we’re witnessing may be slow, but the recent links of venus with Pluto indicate that it won’t be a painful or traumatic battle and that the final showstopper will be followed by a satisfying end. ARIES Mar 21 — Apr 20

YOU think you know what’s around the next corner because you recognise the route you’re taking. You’ve been in a similar situation before. The more you continue to act as though you know what’s coming up, the more likely it is that everything will happen just as you expect. If that’s OK, you know what to do. But if you’d like to try something more experimental and exciting, you need to change your approach. You have the power to rewrite the next scene of your life. August is positively charged with astrological promise. For your inspiring four-minute guide to the month, call 0906 751 5601.

Once you understand why, you’ll be able to make a subtle change and start making progress once again. You have the skills to find the information you need.

GEMINI May 22 — June 22

HOW important is our choice of clothing on the impression we give other people? If you choose to wear a suit, does that mean that you’re more important than someone dressed in jeans and sneakers? Of course not. On the other hand, if you found yourself trying to assert authority in a tricky social situation, wearing an outfit that confers power might help. Even unconventional freethinkers are influenced by appearances. Today, though, be wary of judging on first impressions. All you need to know about August is packed into your four-minute forecast.

You can look at all the factors that contributed and trace the route of the choices you made.

LIBRA Sep 24 — Oct 23

EACH of us and everything that we see is made of stardust. The particles that create the building blocks of matter were present at the birth of the universe. Our actual existence is beyond our ability to understand. Yet we get so easily caught up in the minutiae of our days that we easily overlook the fact that life itself is a miracle. This is a reminder that you’re filled not only with the substance of the universe, but its wisdom, too. If you trust in yours today, you’ll be guided to exactly where you need to be.

SCORPIO Oct 24 — Nov 22

WHEN you meet someone who reminds you of yourself, it’s likely you’ll either feel as though you’ve discovered a best friend or a formidable foe. It all depends on whether they remind you of a good side or one you’d prefer not to think about. As we grow, we reevaluate our personal traits and revise our decisions about whom we like and why. It might be worth thinking about whether someone you have strong feelings about is mirroring a part of your personality. Then you can take action. August is positively charged with astrological promise. For your inspiring four-minute guide to the month, call 0906 751 5608.

SAGITTARIUS Nov 23 — Dec 21

IT would make life very dull if all our wishes could come true at the wave of a wand. No one would need to exert any effort. There’d be no point in being determined. Nor, if everything always worked perfectly, would there be any need for meaningful dialogue or compromise. We’d never need to work as a team or negotiate terms and conditions. We’d be able to do it all by ourselves. Be glad of the challenge you’re facing. It may be hard work, but it holds much potential. August is positively charged with astrological promise. For your inspiring four-minute guide to the month, call 0906 751 5609.

CAPRICORN Dec 22 — Jan 20

EVEN though we’re keen to be good citizens, what are you supposed to do when you don’t agree with the laws of the land? For most of us, there will be moments when a rule or a regulation is at odds with our own personal beliefs. Even though you’re feeling constrained by a restriction that you need to abide by, you can still do a great deal towards changing the limit that has been imposed on you. The good news from the cosmos is that you’re closer to making an important change. Your in-depth August monthly forecast could be one of the most rewarding calls you ever make. Call 0906 751 5610.

AQUARIUS Jan 21 — Feb 19

YOU’RE responding with passion and drama to a series of events and situations. There’s a chance though, that you’re being encouraged into taking greater action than the circumstances actually require. Before you leap into the fray, it’s worth checking your priorities. You don’t want to throw yourself into a project that won’t be changed by your energetic response. The cosmic indication is that a more subtle chain of events is being awoken that will benefit from your attention. All you need to know about August is packed into your four-minute forecast. Make it a magical month, call 0906 751 5611.

PISCES Feb 20 — Mar 20

SOMETIMES we feel the fear and allow it to affect our behaviour. We spend our time worrying so much about all the different possibilities that could go wrong, that we lose precious hours wrapped up in anxiety. Being able to enjoy life is our most precious gift. If we lose that, we cut ourselves off from the joy. As Jupiter and Neptune maintain such a healthy connection, they bring many reasons to celebrate your life. The good news is that your enjoyment looks as if it can continue unimpaired. August is positively charged with astrological promise.
