WHAT YOUR STARS SAY THIS WEEK, AUGUST 6–12

- BY PENNY THORNTON

ARIES MARCH 20–APRIL 18

Venus arrives in the zone of relating for a four-week transit, during which time much can be done to heal ailing relationsh­ips and beef up those that have lost their va-va-voom. Weddings and engagement­s could be in store, and with this week’s solar eclipse in the area of romance, a passionate love affair could be sparked. For more, phone 1902 261 655.

CANCER JUNE 21–JULY 21

If a situation is not made of the right stuff, either you have to go back and rework it or admit defeat and move on. Relationsh­ips are particular­ly vulnerable to the Saturn effect, so if someone is being difficult to live or work with or you being bullied, don’t retreat into your shell but reboot your self-worth and keep going. For more, phone 1902 261 655.

LIBRA SEPT. 23–OCT. 22

Your stars encourage realistic thinking, however that fine line between reality and negativity is all too easily crossed. With this in mind, do not throw in the towel, whether regarding a relationsh­ip or some other project close to your heart. Given a week or two what is currently looking drearily grey could seem altogether brighter. For more, phone 1902 261 655.

CAPRICORN DEC. 22–JAN. 20

Venus reaches the mid-heaven of your solar chart beginning a month-long period when getting ahead is at a premium. Certainly, throughout August you should put out feelers in regard to your career and mainstream ambitions. And for some Capricorns a job or promotion will come out of your August stars. For more, phone 1902 261 655.

TAURUS APRIL 19–MAY 20

After three months in your sign, Uranus heads into retrograde. This change of direction may be marked by a subtle or not so subtle shift in a situation, particular­ly a relationsh­ip. Although this is a largely positive period of the year, you may not be wildly enthusiast­ic about everything that happens. There’s a reason for everything … For more, phone 1902 261 655.

LEO JULY 22–AUG. 22

A solar eclipse in your sign should be a celebratio­n: a celebratio­n of new starts and renewed self-belief. It is possible you already have important plans for the week ahead, on the other hand, this early August period could be a time of unexpected change. Either way, you have opportunit­ies to rewrite part of your life script now. For more, phone 1902 261 655.

SCORPIO OCT. 23–NOV. 21

Opportunit­ies that arise now, paths that open up, are likely to take you where you want to go, but rather than sign on the dotted line, so to speak, you would be better giving a verbal agreement and asking for time to consider all the ramificati­ons. Agreements made under pressure or in a rush are oft regretted. For more, phone 1902 261 655.

AQUARIUS JAN. 21–FEB. 18

Should you be wishing something—anything!—would happen, these stars could do the trick. It is certainly time for a change, whether you decide on a new course of action or because events conspire to set you on a new course. And for some, it is love and romance that holds the promise of a new dawn. For more, phone 1902 261 655.

GEMINI MAY 21–JUNE 20

If you cannot get through to someone or you have not received an item you were hoping for, aside from performing the usual checks, the better course of action may be to leave it alone. As long as you have done the right thing and providing you have proof of your actions, trying to get other people to play their part is a waste of time. For more, phone 1902 261 655.

VIRGO AUG. 23–SEPT. 22

Virgos are the sensible bunnies of the zodiac, but also some of the greatest romantics. So give yourself a pep-talk should you realise you have allowed someone far too much rope or made far too many excuses for him or her. The point being when we put our foot down people wake up and do something about the situation. For more, phone 1902 261 655.

SAGITTARIU­S NOV. 22–DEC. 21

Acquiring knowledge, visiting a foreign place and opening up to a whole new set of emotions are experience­s offered by a solar eclipse in the area of far horizons. And in many ways, this is a period of the year when much can change, and in a flash. Accordingl­y, be open to the new and the different but avoid hurling yourself recklessly into the void! For more, phone 1902 261 655.

PISCES FEB. 19–MARCH 19

For some Pisceans, what happened a couple of weeks ago is revealing more of its potential. Maybe something came to an end and you’ve been trying to figure out what to do next. Perhaps events in mid-to-late July caused you to see something in a new light. New possibilit­ies are in front of you. For more, phone 1902 261 655.
