Your weekly horoscopes, August 26 - September 1
Virgo
August 23 – September 22
This week, the planets encourage you to set out on a bold adventure, so don’t let your fears or inhibitions hold you back. There’s a new-found confidence in the air and it’s yours for the taking, but you must make the effort to grab it.
Libra
September 23 – October 22
Anger, jealousy, spite and revenge – all of these negative emotions can be healed, but only if you open up your soul and allow the cosmic energies to do their work.
Scorpio
October 23 – November 22
If you’re single, there could be a link between friendship and love. Perhaps someone you’ve long taken for granted could be a match made in heaven?
Sagittarius
November 23 – December 20
Relationships with colleagues should improve, meaning you can breathe a sigh of relief as someone starts pulling their weight. Don’t rest on your hands; build your team and get on with it.
Capricorn
December 21 – January 19
Travel is highlighted, especially spur-of-the-moment short trips. Break up your routine by going somewhere different. Variety will lift you out of the blues.
Aquarius
January 20 – February 18
This week is about retiring a debt, but not a financial one. Think about how much you owe your family. Pay back those emotional bills now with added interest and a huge helping of love.
Pisces
February 19 – March 20
If your relationship has been going through a rough patch, help is at hand. Communication will be much easier, so you’ll find it less stressful to say what you need to say.
Aries
March 21 – April 19
Working conditions will improve if you push the point. Use your leverage at work to get the concessions you need. You are more respected than you think, so go for it.
Taurus
April 20 – May 20
Get creative, especially in business. Your artistic talents are underused. Is there a side hustle in there somewhere, perhaps in arts, crafts, writing or music? Showing off these skills will bring you great satisfaction, as well as income.
Gemini
May 21 – June 21
A surprise family announcement brings you every reason to smile, even if it may be a little bitter-sweet. Create precious memories and spend quality time with your loved ones.
Cancer
June 22 – July 22
Get some extra training in skills that could help your community. Voluntary work is the key to your happiness right now, but you can’t be expected to know everything without some extra tuition.
Leo
July 23 – August 22
Recognition at work is sweet indeed, especially if it comes with extra pay attached. Be aware, however, that all this almost certainly comes with increased responsibilities. You wanted this – now be sure to do it well.
