Horoscopes: 13 – 19 August 2013

ARIES {Mar 21–Apr 20}
Confident, optimistic and light, that’s you at your core. There’s no room for negativity, not now that your inner sanctum is being honoured and appreciated with appropriate self regard. With this new you in tow, you may feel drawn to achieve something great. But perhaps you’re already there.

TAURUS {Apr 21–May 21}
Gradually the mystery surrounding a partner can unfold, leaving you to discover the earth shattering gravitas of truth. It doesn’t matter what the truth is, as long as you know what you’re dealing with; you can do more than manage it, you can love it.

GEMINI {May 22–June 21}
Yes, shared resources might be the cause of much to seemingly obsess over. While it is easy to be paranoid about the apparent motivations of others, a little self-scrutiny won’t go amiss either. On a more pleasant note, love has a positive effect on you.

CANCER {June 22–July 22}
You’re currently under the hottest influence, driving more attention your way than a kitten on YouTube. As you get better at getting what you want, one mysterious partnership puts you under an intoxicating spell.

LEO {July 23–Aug 22}
If it feels as though there are some forces in the universe that are not on your side, it may be true. However, it may not be down to outside forces. Sometimes, we are our own worst enemy. Taking a guilt-free time out will do you good.

VIRGO {Aug 23–Sep 22}
While the inspiration and perspiration is evident, the time for groundbreaking releases or energising new projects has not yet come to full fruition. Bide your time and don’t rush to show the world your skills.

LIBRA {Sep 23–Oct 22}
With Venus, your ruler, making her annual return to your sign, this bodes extremely well for you both professionally and romantically. Your looks can be enhanced through a little self pampering, and most of all it’ll make you feel at your best.

SCORPIO {Oct 23–Nov 21}
As you are currently adventurous, it may have payoffs if you stretch the boundaries a little. While you may feel contrary and on the ‘control freak’ side of order, perhaps a little reminder of the things that really matter in life will help you to relax more.

SAGITTARIUS {Nov 22–Dec 20}
While finances are still the most contentious issue on the table, you’ll soon learn who your allies are. Partnerships hold the key to making the inevitable changes as painless as possible; changing the way you value your skills forever.

CAPRICORN {Dec 21–Jan 19}
Partnerships bring with them hidden blessings, can be a tremendous sanctuary of support, and really bolster your sense of self. However, if you insist on being contrary for the sake of pride you may unwittingly reveal a less-than-desirable aspect of your character.

AQUARIUS {Jan 20–Feb 19}
The cardinal T-square is indicative of deep rooted frustrations which you may be at a loss to prevail over. Persevere, as that which has kept you down will soon transform into that which will keep you up! Nevermind the self, think beyond and embrace the great mystery.

PISCES {Feb 20–Mar 20}
There is meaning to be found in the very act of creation. From procreation to a work of art, self expression is an art in itself. Some people look around and imagine they are powerless – naturally, power doesn’t favour those. You can imagine something great so don’t hesitate.
