Scorpio (October 23 – November 21)

It may be August, when lots of people take a holiday, but you will need to stay in town, for you will have a big chance to make a name for yourself in your career. A major change in your family, home, or other property you might own or rent will also be on your mind.

In terms of your career, it will get a big, exciting boost the moment you start the month, thanks to the new moon, August 2. In the two weeks that follow this date. You might get an exciting promotion or an offer from a competitor to join their company. If you are self-employed, new business or positive publicity should put your name on the big marquee in your industry. Saturn will be especially friendly to this new moon, indicating that not only are you capable of getting a glorious new title, but also be given a solid salary, one that give you a very comforting sense of security.

The full moon August 18 will light your house of home, property, and family, and this full moon could easily cause instant changes there, too. Watch for news or events within four days of this full moon. If you have been looking for a new place to live, you will likely settle everything by mid-month. Be ready to roll on any event involving your home space, other property you might own or want to rent (such as a vacation home), or a plan you may have to help one of your parents. When good news arrives, it will happen fast and out of the blue, thanks to Uranus, planet of surprise.

Until this month, your ruler, Mars, was moving through Scorpio. Having had your ruler in your own sign was a big plus. The efforts you made during those months are likely to start to pay off now – not all of them, but the lion’s share of them – now that Mars is moving into Sagittarius on August 2 to stay until September 27. Your spending has been high from March to June, and will start climbing again in August and September. This may make you more determined to increase your cash flow. Your focused efforts to bring in more money will pay off, but may reach a frustrating stalemate on August 24, when Mars (go!) aligns with Saturn (stop!). Saturn will win this round, and you’ll have to step back and rethink a purchase, investment, or other financial commitment. The logjam will be released after August 24 – give it two days space.

If you need to sign papers, do so when Jupiter aligns with Mercury on August 22. If you are working on an agreement involving commission, royalties, fees, sales, or profits, this is when to make your deal. On this same day, you may see how much a friend truly cares for you, and she or he may give you an industry tip, special support, or recommendation that will help you enormously.

Another important day will occur over the weekend of August 27, when Venus will align with Jupiter, an annual event. This would be a special weekend to go away to a beautiful spot with your partner, for if you do, love will blossom and increased closeness will result.

Speaking of romance, if you are single, the tour of Venus through Virgo will be a positive development for you, August 5 to August 29. You’ll be with friends more than usual too, and when it comes to romance, it is through a friend, or at a friend’s party, where you are likely to make the introduction. Clearly, the weekend of August 27-28 will give Scorpios who are attached the cosmic edge, but even single Scorpios will do well under this rare and quite dazzling aspect. If you are a single, August 27 will be your best point in the season to have that fateful meeting. Look sharp – Venus in Virgo suggests that your appearance will count, right down to the details.

As the month winds down to a close, wrap up all your plans well in advance of Mercury retrograde, August 30 to September 22.
