Weekly Horoscopes
July 28-August 3, 2008
Aries
That awesome new idea you come up with as the week gets started? Before you
dash off a mass email, bounce it off a key person. Family -- or your family
of friends -- is in the stars starting on Tuesday, so over the next couple
of days, make sure things with them are on the up and up. If a
relationship's worth having, it's worth fostering. Speaking of
relationships, the more amorous side of life is highlighted on Thursday,
Friday and Saturday -- how's love going for you? You can always make it
better, whether you're single or coupled up, especially now. You're hot! Let
the errands wait until Sunday.
Taurus
You're liable to do something rash as the week begins! If it's letting
someone know how you really feel, maybe it's a good thing; if it involves
money, slam on the brakes. Your energy will mellow out considerably around
Wednesday. It's a fine time to do domestic things or enjoy your own backyard
instead of running around, and your wallet will thank you, too. Then your
patience will come in handy at the end of the workweek, whether in a work or
personal context. Explain nicely -- maybe twice! With the weekend comes the
potential for some summer lovin'. If you're into it, now's the time!
Gemini
You're the star of the show at the beginning of the week if the stars have
their say! Your way with networking and flirting is especially favored now
-- just watch the overlap! Around Wednesday, though, interpersonal stuff may
take more effort. Can you strengthen a relationship, or negotiate instead of
fighting? Then you'll be sharp as a tack starting Thursday, with creative
power and analytical ability to boot. It's great for work and for play. When
the weekend comes around, though, find a little peace and quiet here and
there, alone or with a certain someone.
Cancer
Taking direction isn't your strong suit on Monday, but try to take it in
stride. Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday are your power days this week, at
work, in love and in whatever you choose to put your heart into. Others will
be coming to you for direction, and being asked your opinion will feel
great. Take a little extra time in answering each question that's posed, and
you'll be an all-star across the board. Around Friday, you might feel like
celebrating life; just don't overdo it! You'll want plenty of energy for
lots of projects this weekend.
Leo
You're easily swayed on Monday, so make sure you're listening to quality
people and getting the facts. Over the next couple of days, your natural
pride will be a good thing -- it means you'll do the best you can, both at
work and in your personal life. But if you really want to shine, just wait
until Thursday, Friday and Saturday, when the stars do their very best on
your behalf, making life -- and maybe love -- beautiful. Your connections
with others will be remarkable; this is what it's all about. Enjoy the heck
out of it, but don't neglect a practical matter when Sunday comes.
Virgo
Your diligence on Monday will make all the difference. Pay extra attention,
both with facts or figures and when it comes to people and feelings. Then, a
gathering of some sort is in order over the next few days. Say yes to
invitations, and put together a little shindig of your own. You don't have
to get every detail perfect -- spur-of-the-moment can be great! At the end
of the workweek, watch out for double-bookings, things (or people) running
late and other logistical issues. But when the weekend comes, the stars
smile on you and what you do. What's your top priority now?
Libra
There are at least two sides to every story as the week gets going, and
you're delving into all the angles and fitting together the different
perspectives. Good for you -- get someone else in on the act to help (and to
make it more fun). And around Wednesday, get ready to accentuate the
positive. Things can't always go off without a hitch, but look for lessons
learned and all's not lost. If you come up with an especially creative idea,
the star will send you a push towards getting started on Thursday. Then all
through the weekend, you'll have amazing vision -- and all kinds of charm.
Sweet!
Scorpio
Use your awesome powers of focus on Monday, and something that you missed
before will jump right out at you. Nice catch! Then can you let yourself
dream a little around Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday? Giving that fierce
determination and analytical ability a rest can feel amazingly good -- not
to mention the incredible places your mind will go when given lots of
leeway. And while Friday may involve some stress, the energy coming this
weekend is less intense and more conducive to friends --
maybe even more-than-friends! Make low-key plans and do little
favors.
Sagittarius
Watch out for time-wasters as the week gets going, whether at work or in
your personal life. There's so much to learn and do that you won't want to
spin your wheels when you could be moving! Then if you notice a disconnect
around Wednesday, be sure to investigate. What's fallen through the cracks
here? After this investigatory phase, let yourself explore around Thursday,
Friday and Saturday. Replace any expectations with sheer anticipation --
know it's gonna be good, but keep an open mind about how! More specific
details come into play on Sunday. Honor even a small commitment, and don't
be late.
Capricorn
You can be serious about responsibilities as the week gets going, but let
your heart be light. Life's what you make it, so you might as well enjoy!
Then your social life offers a wild card element sometime around Wednesday.
Are you interested? Why not give it a shot? Beware of expecting immediate
results at the end of the workweek, whether job-related or not. Make your
efforts from the heart because it's right; it'll all come together
eventually. When the weekend arrives, the things you find out may amaze you
-- all you have to do is ask!
Aquarius
As this week gets underway, you've got it going on, as they say! Your charm
factor's way up there, and a creative stroke of genius is barely a reach.
But around Wednesday, a certain responsibility or routine may seem like a
big drag. Assess whether you can divest yourself of it realistically; if
not, best to get it done and move on. And there's plenty to move on to
around Thursday, Friday and Saturday -- a pleasant surprise awaits, perhaps
in the love arena! On Sunday, some downtime allows you to feel rock-solid.
Pisces
Shifting circumstances are plentiful on Monday -- why add to them when you
can adapt and surf on through? You do it so well! Then, it's romantic
circumstances that are in the stars around Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday.
It's summertime, and the living -- and loving -- are easy, whether you're
with a certain someone or looking to meet somebody sweet. Hint: Your
messages find their mark now. On Friday and over the weekend, though, you
may be inclined to tune a certain message or factor out. It's not gonna go
away just because you ignore it!"
Aquarius
You love stuff that's far out, but as this week gets going, it's far too
easy to get off track. Be a little practical, or at least run it by a
pragmatic friend or colleague. Once you've got the basics in place,
branching out will go a lot better around Wednesday and Thursday. Push
yourself and those around you in fascinating new directions; you're very
cutting-edge now, and people will feel lucky to be a part of it. But be
proactive about avoiding some doldrums around Friday and Saturday. Mix up
your routine. Life's only as interesting as you make it -- same with love,
especially on Sunday!
Pisces
Get going while your personal energy's flowing at the beginning of the week!
The changes you want to make are easy to enact now, especially because they
involve making things better for others, too. But around Wednesday and
Thursday, a certain amount of skepticism is healthy. Don't just take things
at face value; find out what's behind the facade. And the cosmic forecast
for Friday and this weekend? Dreamy days and hot nights! All that's most
appealing about you will be accented now. Just be aware of the impact you're
having, especially on Sunday.
