The foot is on the accelerator and it is fast forward for you. In the last month Uranus and Jupiter have taken up residence in your sign and a need for change abounds. The pressure to make amendments will also be applied by your ruler Mars, who sits in opposition to your sun and visitors for most of the month. Keep the physical activity level high otherwise pent up energies may go in the wrong direction.

A quiet month for most Taureans with your sun wanting to take time to reflect. Taurus being a fixed sign is not one to make changes in a hurry and yet changes are being inflicted upon us all. How you might like to bring those changes about will take some thinking and planning. If needed seek out some bold adventurous friends to give you some help.

Whilst we are all being asked to makes changes this month, for you that is not really a problem. Geminians are really quite good at adapting to new situtations, in fact they thrive on it. Changes for you may occur around the home front. Watch for disputes with family members. The trick will be to leave work at work so that you may enjoy a quiet peaceful home environment. |

What do you believe in? What's important to you? These are the burning questions this month. Some things that may have seemed important in the past are no longer a focus for you now. It is time to get out and about. Change direction, listen to some new advice, take up a challenge no matter how bizarre. We are all being asked to think and act outside the square - for you this means listening to the advice of people you might otherwise shun. |

The new moon in your sign this month (10 August) gives you the perfect opportunity to put out to the universe your hopes and wishes for the month ahead. Its on the cards that your wishes might include some in depth changes. What you valued in the past is not working for you anymore but the changes you might be thinking of could involve some drastic upheavals. This is going to take some time thinking through. Whichever way you go, you may look back on this time and know it to be a marker in time. |

With your ruler, Mercury, heading off in a reverse motion from 20 August, you may find that life slows down somewhat while you give some extra time and effort to matters that have been building up over the last few months. Many of us have been assaulted with the amount of cosmic energy being directed at the planet. We all have some pretty big decisions to make, adjustments to our everyday life - while your ruler is backtracking take the time to review what has happened for you. |

Your ruler, Venus, comes home for a visit on 7 August. It is always a fortuitous time when a ruler sits its in own sign. Unfortunately though, Venus will meet firstly with Saturn and then with Mars shortly after 7 August. Neither of these two planets have the same agenda as your diplomatic, sweet talking ruler. So the first half of the month could be more stressful than usual. Then again the energies are intense at the moment and all of us are needing to changes to keep abreast with what may come. |
|

|
This month begins with both your rulers in a square aspect - meaning that your levels of stress and frustration may have risen a notch or two. Thankfully Mars moves on fairly quickly and the frustration may subside somewhat. Watch for health issues that might arise and keep you bed ridden. Should that happen take the enforced rest as a time to review what's really been going on for you over the last few months. It might not be an "accident" that you are sick at this time. |

The pressure is on you fun loving Sagittarians this month to keep a clear head and focus on your earthly needs like a roof over your head and food on the table. The call to play and have fun with friends is strong and you will feel pulled between your commitments to your family and to yourself and your innate sense of a good time. The energies under which we are working at the moment are setting us up for some major transformations. You may get a taste of this later in the month. Be watchful around home and family. |

Your ruler, Saturn, makes an exact square to Pluto - the planet of transformation - at the end of the month. Combinations of Saturn and Pluto are always hard to negotiate. It takes a lot of discipline to work carefully through all each conflict as it arises, ensuring that you keep your head screwed on tight and not allow yourself to be swayed by emotion. You will probably feel the most restless in the work area of life - wanting to change your job or tell the boss where to go. Again keeping a cool head is the only way to survive this month. |

Please ensure that you keep you options open in most areas of life this month. It will not pay to become too dogmatic, even fanatic over any issue that you may feel strongly about. Listen to other's points of view, allow someone else to be right occasionly and you will end the month on much better note than when it started. Chiron and Neptune are both in residence in your sign at the moment ensuring that you stay in tune with the bigger picture that will benefit you and those around you. |

Finances are the area of concern once again, but only for those born in the later stages of this sign. Uranus pays a last minute visit to ensure you have all your money issues sorted. Visits to the accountant to get that tax done, insurance policies that need signing, bank loans, home mortgages that need to be refinanced will all need to be finalised, especially before 20 August when Mercury goes retrograde. |
