What is in your horoscope this week - August 14, 2023
You may learn a lot more about past events by reading and contemplating, but once you have come to terms with them, this will free up the vitality to power forwards. A house move is possible in the second half of the year, and a wonderful holiday in the last quarter could also prove to be incredibly uplifting, and potentially headily romantic.
Aries 21 March – 20 April
Jupiter, the planet of fortune and expansion, arrives in your sign from May 10th to October 28th. This is a once-in-twelve-years opportunity to use every ounce of your talent and charm to further your hopes, augmented by your ruler Mars moving through your sign for six weeks from May 24th to July 5th. Your energy and raw sex appeal can be incredible during this period. Mars also occupies the sign of Gemini from August 20th ’til the year’s end, and you will likely change your mode of transport before 2022 comes to a close. Cycling, motorcycling, electric scooters or the like can appeal. If you want to publish or launch a new app or website, the last half of the year will see you achieve this. In love, someone seriously sensual who loves food or cooking can captivate you.
Taurus 21 April – 21 May
Finances can also revive in the second half of the year, but the Scorpio Solar Eclipse of October 25th is side by side with Venus, and the last ten weeks of 2022 can see a very special alliance develop, or an existing secure tie deepen into an even closer bond.
Gemini 22 May – 21 June
But so much added personal tranquillity and peace can be gained from engaging with it, so expect to do a lot of reading or researching throughout the year about things like psychology, healing and spirituality, and any interest in esoteric subjects like astrology can thrive. With two Scorpio Eclipses emphasising your physical wellbeing, a new job or exercise routine and improvements to diet are all possible.
Cancer 22 June – 23 July
For those who have considered starting a family, this is a very lovely year. True, long-term finances will need working on and rash speculation should be avoided, but it’s time to put the fun back into your existence and enjoy whatever you do to the maximum. Work on being less cautious, even fearful, of other people’s motives. Singletons can benefit from an especially beautiful Solar Eclipse in October, which can bring true love into your world, or enrich an already positive involvement.
Leo 24 July – 23 August
Socially, things can come to life from the time of your birthday. Whilst this is often the case, you may find yourself enjoying a group involvement more, or a team sport or some kind of community involvement. Finances can also be on the up this year, perhaps linked to property, and for some, maybe an overseas investment or nest egg can pay off handsomely. Single Leos may get smitten too this year, but don’t necessarily expect the actual meeting to be anywhere glamorous. It could be through a personal introduction or in a mundane situation such as chatting to someone in a supermarket queue. But be assured in whatever area of life, your ambitions are reignited.
Virgo 24 August – 23 September
Never learned to drive? You will do, this year. Would like to become more adventurous? The last five months of the year can see you also wanting to show a more ambitious side of your nature. Because your desire for stimulation and change is set to be so strong, this can feed into the types of work you do. A business partnership which allows you to express your creative talents could feature, or if you’re solo, Jupiter’s transits across your sectors of relating, and Venus’s influential combination with Pluto at the year’s turn, could see a very warm and mutually beneficial union develop. However, any tie which cramps your style too much may begin to lose its lustre.
Libra 24 September – 23 October
The Scorpio Solar Eclipse of 25th October can be very helpful for your finances, but your sweet tooth may be activated from then and a personal dietary plan may be tested in the run up to the year’s end. The chances are you will feel you have deserved a reward, and this is certainly true. Continue to be innovative and forward-looking, work on your talents with Saturn’s structural support and keep growing and flowering.
Scorpio 24 October – 22 November
Your traditional ruler Mars also passes through a very deep and sultry part of your Solar Chart, which could arouse the deepest of desires, perfect if you want to get up close and personal with someone special, but also giving you the drive to improve your earnings. A magical Eclipse in your sign in October could also see your popularity soar.
Sagittarius 23 November – 21 December
That said, your openness to new approaches about exercise, fitness and diet can be a big feature of this year, and you may even take up a sporty pursuit from August onwards. In love, you can find yourself particularly sentimental in the last quarter of the year, and those with a more spiritual dimension can become more of your closest ties. Some kind of special reunion could occur from late October onwards.
Capricorn 22 December – 20 January
Aquarius 21 January – 19 February
Being an air sign, communication has often been your arena of success, but now, allied to this, your knowledge of the emotional dimension can see you gain greater security and happiness. Make a note in your diary of the 25th October 2022, for then a really major breakthrough at work is possible.
Pisces 20 February – 20 March
You’ll have opportunities to meet some fabulous people and to work and collaborate with them. A sudden attraction to someone could take things in a romantic or businesslike direction, or even both. You’ll also be keen to look after your wellbeing, especially if you’ve been feeling the pressure of work. And the Leo New Moon on Thursday is perfect for adopting healthier habits.
