Astrological Roundup: August 23 to August 29

by Archie Dunlop on August 22, 2010

Not much to report. Mercury, the planet of communication, is now going retrograde. We must accept that the pace of life is going to slow down. It’s going to be difficult to get instant results, and messages might get sent to the wrong place.

On the plus side, many of us will have a chance to review an old piece of work, to make sure that we’ve really done a good job of it. And if we have to make changes now, it’ll be much cheaper than later in the year.

Looking at the week starting on Monday August 23, here are my forecasts for the twelve signs:

Aries It occurs to you that there are things in your life that are untidy and disorganised. You want to let someone else sort the matter out, but realistically that’s not an option. Yet a bit of hard work can achieve wonders.

Taurus You’re in two minds whether to do something. It could be a lot of fun, but there’s also an element of risk. But perhaps it’s a question of postponement rather than cancellation. A change of friend can bring a change of luck.

Gemini You’re thinking hard about your work situation, and something doesn’t seem right. Perhaps the balance between home and career needs to be changed? If you listen to your heart you’ll know what to do.

Cancer There are lots of facts and figures to sort out, but what do they all mean? You have to work out where it’s all going, and look at the wider picture. Sometimes the big vision is more important than the small details.

Leo As August draws to a close you start to understand the nature of your financial situation. It’s probably not quite as good as you would have liked it to be, and some cutbacks might be required. Thorough fast action you can save yourself a lot of aggravation.

Virgo This week there is a Full Moon, across the main axis of your solar chart. You might find that relationships start hitting a critical stage, where decisions have to be made. It’s not a time for kidding yourself, yet in the long run honesty brings intimacy.

Libra It might be best if you take it easy. I don’t think that there’s anything that must be done, and if you try to do too much you could exhaust yourself. A bit of constructive isolation can do you the world of good.

Scorpio Someone close to you is in the process of changing their mind, and they might have to go back on one of their promises. However in the first instance you mustn’t get annoyed. Instead try to work out what’s going on.

Sagittarius If you’re working this week, it may be difficult to get anything done. Other people won’t be very helpful, and whatever you’re doing, the effort could be enormous. But in the process you might learn some important lessons.

Capricorn The old ways of doing things aren’t necessarily the best ways. Sometimes you have to be inventive, trying out new strategies. And with the right approach you can exceed your own expectations.

Aquarius It occurs to you that something is coming to an end. You could postpone the inevitable, but you wouldn’t be doing yourself any favours. It’s better that you decide on a plan and then put it into action.

Pisces This week there’s a Full Moon, that has a direct impact on your star sign. You’ve kept quiet for a long time, but you now have to tell the world what you feel. If you’re honest, but you also show a good heart, it’ll be difficult if not impossible to lose out.
