Your horoscope for August 8 to 14, 2019

    1 of 1 2 of 1

      The creative potential of Leo has been out in full force this week and will continue to be through next week’s full moon, too.

      The sun and Venus in Leo aligned with Jupiter by trine are terrific for travel, pleasure-seeking, and the heart journey. Thursday/Friday, luck, ease, and opportunity continue. Venus/Jupiter puts more of everything on the go, including hopefulness, opinions, and money. It all comes easy. Note, there is a propensity for overindulgence, self-indulgence, or overspending.

      Sunday holds three significant transits: Jupiter in Sagittarius ends a four-month retrograde cycle; Uranus begins a five-month retrograde cycle; and Mercury leaves Cancer for Leo. Watch for something unexpected to set faster wheels in motion. In tandem, Jupiter direct and Uranus retrograde intend to get us better on track by pinpointing the front-runner: that which holds the strongest life force, that can and will go the distance. Mercury’s advance into Leo on the same day also shines a brighter light on the success and happiness quotient, on what or who is in your highest and best interest.

      Tuesday/Wednesday, Venus/sun form a superior conjunction (Venus and the Earth are on opposite sides of the sun). Creative opportunity and luck are at peak. Karmic destiny is too. A relationship, a health matter, or an evaluation process reaches a fruition stage or comes to the light of day.

      Venus and Mars in Leo oppose next Thursday’s full moon in Aquarius. A new alliance formed; a divorce; a striking departure, arrival, or breakthrough; an irresistible attraction to something or someone outside of the norm; exceptional opportunity; the sudden and unexpected—expect to see relationship intensity (social, political, personal, romantic) in full swing. It could be a wild ride regarding money markets, too.

      Aries
      March 20 - April 20

      Thursday/Friday, Venus in Leo is in happy-camper mode. If it feels good, do it. Love it; buy it. Love them; show it. If there’s a complaint, it’s too much of a good thing. Sunday/Monday sets a next reality into play. From one extreme to another, what a difference a day makes! Karmic destiny is at peak through next Thursday’s full moon!

      Taurus
      April 20 - May 21

      It’s an ideal time to vacation, move, relocate, or purchase a property or some other big-ticket item. Thursday/Friday, Venus/Jupiter can sign you up for more love, fun, and gifting moments. Through the end of next week, everything is on the increase—including wants and needs. All in or all out, watch for a significant relationship to hit a fast track, perhaps surprisingly so.

      Gemini
      May 21 - June 21

      With Venus/Jupiter in full swing on Thursday/Friday, it’s easy to get carried away by the feel of the moment, the prospect, or the pleasure of it. Visits and conversations go the distance and then some. Sunday through next Thursday’s full moon can set something special, perhaps even exceptional, into play. News or someone special can surprise you. Try your luck.

      Cancer
      June 21 - July 22

      Thursday/Friday, milk it for all it is worth. Sunday/Monday can remove a block or invisible barrier and/or spark something fresh, especially regarding work, health, or problem-solving. You have more going for you than you may fully realize. Money- or relationshipwise, things can change, perhaps dramatically or radically so. Tuesday through next Friday, seize opportunity! Try your luck on something or someone new.

      Leo
      July 22 - August 23

      It’s a great time to be you! This week’s Sun/Jupiter and Venus/Jupiter, and next week’s sun/Venus in Leo (Tuesday/Wednesday), put you on the receiving end of “as good as it gets”. As of Sunday, Mercury adds even more shine to your Leo light. Tuesday onward, someone special or someone new could make your day. Thursday’s full moon holds an element of surprise.

      Virgo
      August 23 - September 23

      You’ll get back to work/to it soon enough. For now, enjoy; take a vacation; do what makes you happy. Gift yourself more, especially in the self-love department. Have big wheels already set you in motion? This next week sets up plenty more; stay ready for anything goes. Opportunity comes in all shapes and sizes. Good things can happen when you least expect it.

      Libra
      September 23 - October 23

      Opportunity and luck run especially high. Thursday/Friday are excellent days to aim higher, try your luck, open your heart, or create some magic. Social and romantic potentials are at peak. Venus could set you onto a financial gain or windfall. On the other hand, you could spend plenty. Karmic destiny is at peak through next week’s full moon. Expect the unexpected!

      Scorpio
      October 23 - November 22

      Feeling proud of yourself? Is there something to celebrate? You have good reason to crow. Then again, with Venus in such good shape through mid–next week, you may not need to do it yourself. Your fans will do it for you. Sunday through full moon Thursday thrusts you into full-steam ahead on something fresh or out of the blue.

      Sagittarius
      November 22 - December 21

      Jupiter, your ruler, finishes retrograde on Sunday, but thanks to trines with the sun and Venus you are likely to already feel its ample blessings. Loving it/living it large, on the move—Thursday/Friday, the moon in Sagittarius keeps everything (including you) going strong. On a note of caution: know it is easy to get overly carried away, to spend, indulge, or expect too much.

      Capricorn
      December 21 - January 20

      Let the good times roll! Sun, Venus, and Jupiter amp up romantic and financial promise. A special someone claims special attention now, too (someone new, someone you already love, or perhaps it is you). Stay game, stay hopeful, but also play it wise; hold some in reserve. Sunday through next Friday, anything goes. It’s a work in progress.

      Aquarius
      January 20 - February 18

      Feeling good? Feeling great? In love? Happy to be here now? The end of the week keeps you riding the high. Your social life and financial potentials also gain a big boost. Uranus retrograde (starting Sunday) and next Thursday’s full moon in Aquarius set you up for a major personal, career, or relationship breakthrough. You could surprise yourself.

      Pisces
      February 18 - March 20

      Travel or a vacation is well timed. Pleasure, play, and romance top this week’s gift list. Financial and work prospects look good too. Now through the end of next week is full of greater-than-average potential. Even the tough stuff comes easy when Venus aligns with Jupiter (Thursday/Friday) and the sun (Tuesday). Sunday/Monday and Thursday, anything goes!
