August 2020 Astrological Predictions

Predictions for August 2020

Aries
August is going to be a very busy month for you Aries. You may have figured out what your next step in your career, your family and home planning, or your relationship is, but this month you will find yourself in a stalled situation of your own making.  Midway through the month when Uranus retrogrades you will realize the only way to release the constraints you created is to do some work on yourself, starting with making the choice to move forward with your creative plans and ideas, even though some sacrifices will have to be made.  If you have children, this is a good month to put some energy into helping them plan their futures.  In relationships, to find joy and move forward you have to learn to give up control. In finances, your plans you thought fool-proof need some further scrutiny and revision.  In Career and home related situations, some big choices need to be made, and soon.  Use this month as your launch pad into the Fall.

Taurus
You are finally letting yourself slow down and giving yourself some time to assess the many changes that have come into your life this past year Taurus.  It’s felt like a whirlwind of change for you, hasn’t it?  Those changes may be within you, or in your outer world.  Either way, your world is changing. Between now and the end of the year you have the opportunity to tweak or change or even stop moving forward with the path you are currently on.  The key is to be conscious of your long-term goals and make sure the path you are on now will continue to lead you towards them.  If you have lost sight of your goals, or have changed them, now is the time to get reorganized and refocused so that you will be able to be back on track with your life as we move into 2021.  That said, you also have some new ideas concerning your home situation, and also some financial opportunities that cannot wait and would mean major change.  These things cannot wait, if you want them you must make some swift choices. This will mean some doors in your life will be permanently closed.  Travel or travel plans that may involve pleasure and business and/or even a change of residence is around you this month.  It’s time to make some important decisions and get read to take action to implement them.

Gemini
Balancing the relationships in your life, health matters, and finances are all heavily on your mind this month Gemini.  Long term plans and financial goals need to be reviewed.  Where your finances are coming from and how the financial burden is shared in your household are going to be major topics of discussion this month.  The real underlying question is, what do you want to do with your life going forward?  You are possibly looking at career changes for you or your life-mate, or maybe even making a major investment.  You should wind back the clock to revisit your goals and experiences as you’ve worked towards them, and recreate them in the new light of the understandings you’ve gained.  Many things in your life are coming around full circle now. Legal matters must be addressed this month, and any financial things you’ve left hanging need resolution.  How you handle these things can either set the stage for financial freedom in the future, or for its opposite. Meanwhile, this month should find you spending many enjoyable hours at home, with your children and life-mate.  It’s a great time to be involved with creative projects at home.

Cancer
Your focus is on your primary relationship and on finances this month Cancer.  If your relationship is good for you, this month will reinforce your bond and you’ll be mostly focused on your mutual financial stability and growth.  You might even be considering a major investment that would help you as you grow old together, or be considering a change of profession for one or both of you.  You may be looking at your home and either it’s size or location and thinking a change or move could improve the financial situation. Any decisions you make right now will be for your mutual benefit and the long-term success and support of both of you.  But if you have determined that your relationship partner is not the right one for you, you will be considering all these things relative to your own physical and financial health and well-being, and will likely be making plans to move out of the home and relationship soon.  You will have determined that you’ve fulfilled your responsibilities, and that your future should belong to you.  Either way, this month is filled with powerful emotions, a lot of growth, and the need for many choices.  

Leo
This is your month Leo! Your day-to-day life, and perhaps your work, is undergoing some changes that may give you a bit of trepidation, but should actually free up both time and finances for you.  Now is the time to decide how you want to handle finances going forward, for your long-term security and enjoyment of life.  Do you have talents or skills you’d like to learn and develop?  Now is the time to include them in your life-plan for the future. You will find yourself very emotionally involved with a family member, and possibly with health issues for them, throughout much of the month. Those issues could be physical, emotional, mental or even financial. It seems like issues you’ve worked through with them before are returning.  Before their life takes control of yours, do some soul searching and set some appropriate boundaries.  Now is the time to get everything at home running smoothly and enjoy your time with all your family members.  Next month there may be travel obligations for work, or that health issue for someone at home or work that you feel you bear responsibility for may escalate.  You need to have things running smoothly now so that whatever comes your way in September won’t shake your tree.  Make the most of your birthday month now!  Happy Birthday!

Virgo
Spending quiet time by yourself for reflection will be of great value to you this month Virgo.  Likewise, you’ll have plenty of opportunities for fun with friends and family, especially your children, or the ‘child of your heart’.  Your creativity is off the charts this month, and it feels like ideas for projects are just pouring out of you.  This can either keep you very busy working at home, or can give you a lot of recognition at work!  If you are looking for a change or opportunity to come your way relative to your career, a friend may have an important suggestion or option you should consider.  If you are in the market for a romantic partner, this is a wonderful month for you to find that perfect someone who can really light up your life.  If you are that Virgo who likes to write, this is also the perfect month to start your next book project.  This could very well be the big one!

Libra
This month lights up your future career and makes time spent with friends especially enjoyable.  Look for an expansion of financial and career opportunities to come from groups that you are exposed to or may be affiliated with.  Friends can help.  There will be powerful emotions at home this month as you hear about or even help various family members deal with past recurring situations in their lives. These might involve health and/or financial issues. In particular, big changes are in the works for your significant other, if you have one, or for a woman that you are either very close to or who is a close part of your home and family.  An opportunity to travel to visit a family member will come too, but the circumstances may not be the ones you would wish for.  If you have sought to make changes in your home, or to move, that option will come up again this month but your desires may have changed.  Ask yourself if this is still what you want?   Meanwhile, if you are something of an entrepreneur, this month is an ideal time to begin a business from your home, or even to work in someone else’s home-based business.  Likewise, this could be a great time for investment in real estate!  Let past experiences benefit your future investments.

Scorpio
This month your outer focus is on your career and future life plans.  Your life may be a bit like a seesaw this month as you vacillate between life experiences that have you moving through the world in a big open-hearted fun-loving way and quiet withdrawn times spent at home in meditation, research, or your other own quiet pursuits.  You have opportunities this month to develop new streams of revenue, and may require some education in order to pursue this, if that is what you choose.  Communication is very important and very emotional this month, and you may endure intense communication with a family member, possibly a sibling or your mother, or even a mother figure.  Relationships with men of authority in your life are changing, and things you thought done and buried are coming up again for discussion and some rethinking.  Friends are very important this month.  Time spent on or near the water will be good for you especially if it is with someone you love and the people you are most comfortable with.

Sagittarius
Financial issues and situations involving authority figures around you this month are both very important and highly emotional Sagittarius.  Conflicts and misunderstandings abound.  It’s important to clear the air before making important life choices.  Old patterns and difficult past financial experiences are returning.  Make different choices now.  You are at the precipice of a new beginning in your life and as you weigh your choices choose freedom.  This may not be as forthright as it appears to be.  Dig deep and look within to find your truth.  As you make your decisions and move forward do what is best and right for yourself first, then consider the people around you that you bear responsibility for.  You are in the process of reclaiming your creative and talented self. You have so much to offer and so many things you can do as you move forward but all your dreams require a firm financial foundation.  Create that first.  Help and advice may come from a surprising source.

Capricorn
You enter this month in a far more emotional state than is usual for you Capricorn.  By working in partnership with another person or entity, you can take steps forward in the life you are planning for yourself that allow you to expand beyond your current situation.  But are you willing to take that step?  Are you willing to share with or even depend upon another person?  There is no clear way to know which way to go; you must follow your intuition in order to succeed.  Finances and relationships are on your mind in equal parts all month long.  Both will keep you in a state of quandary and overthinking will cause you to make mistakes regarding both.   Get in touch with your feelings.  As difficult as it is to do, let your feelings, NOT your emotions, be your guide.  Your career and finances going forward are important for your life work.  Get help from a legal professional who can help with corporate, government, tax, and financial distributions.  Now is the time to do that, though you may want to put it off because all of these things generate strong emotional responses in you.  But regardless, the planning and organization needs to happen now.  It can’t wait.

Aquarius
Old situations and recurring fears have you in a highly emotional state all month Aquarius, but to you it’s going to feel like you are edgy and can’t quite put your finger on what’s wrong or out of place, though you know something is.  Spend some time meditating, record your dreams, listen to what comes out of your own mouth when you are having casual conversations with others.  You do need to get in touch with what’s going on in your own subconscious so that you don’t booby trap yourself as you move forward into a new or rejuvenated relationship, and a new way of handling your finances and your home situation.  There are health issues all around you right now too, and it’s important that you and your significant other, if you have one, are on the same page regarding how to handle these and other family issues.  Remember, what you suppress yourself will likely come out in health problems for you.  Talking is the best way to uncover these hidden little landmines.  On another note, if you are in a counseling field, the current transits will be great for you professionally, and will also be helpful if you are in the process of writing a book or putting forth your ideas in any other kind of public forum.

Pisces
Major opportunities are starting to come into focus this month Pisces, especially regarding career and finances.  What do you want out of your future?  Where do you want to be? Friends and connected groups will be of great help as you seek direction.  Choices have to be made.  Your focus is divided between creative things and health related ones.  Ask yourself, which, in the long run will give you the greatest stability and enjoyment?  If you are in the market for romance or a relationship, opportunities also will present themselves – but are you ready to take the plunge?  If you do, you may find yourself in a serious long-term relationship before long.  If you don’t, you may remain single for a while.  Your biggest concerns right now have to do with family, be that your children, your family of friends, your furry family, or your human blood related family.  How will your steps forward affect them?  Meanwhile you are faced with frustration as red tape and slow-moving authority figures and agencies seemingly get in your way.  These may be blessings in disguise, as all this is giving you more time to be sure.
