Horoscope today: Daily guide to what the stars have in store for YOU – August 9, 2024

Yesterday, we were talking about the benefits of having a good moan. But there’s a difference between sniping from the sidelines and having a discussion about what needs to change. 

The Mercury/Venus link helps us see where our reality doesn’t match the picture we’ve been sold. 

But it also invites us to come up with creative ways to address problems. We might not find perfect solutions this weekend. But we can make a good start! 

As human beings, we too often look to the outside world to make us happy. And, it’s true, we need food, water, shelter to live. 

But, perhaps, looking for light at the end of the tunnel, we distract ourselves from looking for our own inner light, the one that shines regardless of the weather. Find that inner light in your ‘Guide to the Future‘.

ARIES 

 March 21 – April 20

Scientists and philosophers generally agree that time is a continuous movement from the past to the present to the future. Yet some experts believe all time exists at the same time; that the time we’re in right now is privileged because it’s what we’re actually experiencing. No matter how complex the theories, experience tells us it goes faster as we get older! This weekend, Mercury retrograde reminds you of a past ambition. Just know that whatever happened previously, you can start changing your future for the better.

A powerful cosmic climate is working in your favour right now. You can make a positive transformation and achieve what you’ve been hoping for. A personal birth-chart report will tell you what’s really possible… and when… and how. Download yours now! 

TAURUS 

April 21 – May 21

You’re important. You matter. You make a difference. So it’s frustrating that you’ve only got a supportive role in a drama you’re more than capable of influencing. But rather than resenting the part you’re playing you should feel relieved; ultimately, it means the outcome isn’t your responsibility. Be wise, and work collaboratively this weekend. If you share your opinions and experience in a constructive way (and resist the temptation to criticise), you’ll be part of a successful team. And the benefits of that, moving forwards, will be great.

GEMINI 

May 22 – June 22

You can try as hard as you like but you can’t do everything. Or be everywhere. Or make everyone happy. And the problem with trying to be all things to all people is that you expend so much energy you risk damaging yourself. Plus, squeezing too many things in necessitates making hard decisions about what/who to prioritise. And that leads to guilt. You deserve to be having a good time. I know you’ve got Mars powering through your sign – but if you stop winding yourself up, this weekend can be fun… and rejuvenating.

CANCER 

June 23 – July 23

What if ‘this’ happens? What will the consequences be? What if ‘that’ happens? Will the outcome be better (or worse)? Although it’s good to look ahead and try to predict potential problems, when you look too far and your mind’s filled with ‘what ifs’, it’s possible to talk yourself out of doing anything; the future can start to resemble a series of upcoming reasons to feel anxious. Your current ideas are well-considered. Mercury’s link to Venus encourages you to stop worrying about what might happen. This weekend, live for the day.

LEO 

July 24 – August 23

Unless you enjoy worrying (which some people do) you can stop. The problem with anticipating negative outcomes is that it gets addictive. We can develop such a taste that we get an unquenchable thirst for it. We seek reasons to be concerned. We enjoy the flavour of disappointment. We convince ourselves that it’s a rewarding way to live, and try to get other people to buy into our concerns. Don’t let anyone give you reason to feel anxious this weekend. Develop a thirst for hope and you’ll find reasons to be optimistic.

There are powerful changes in store for you soon. What are they? How can you best prepare for them? Find out in a full horoscope birth-chart. It’s full of amazing predictions about you and your future. Get yours now. 

VIRGO 

August 24 – September 23 

You’re an independent soul. You’re perfectly capable of looking after yourself thank you very much. You’re quick-thinking and clever. Capable and pragmatic. A coper. A natural survivor. Your experience of dealing with life’s inevitable challenges has made you strong. Yet none of the above is particularly relevant right now. With your retrograde ruler Mercury linking to Venus, something touching and delightful is starting to take place. This weekend, let your guard down, open your heart, relax, and enjoy what’s coming your way.

LIBRA 

September 24 – October 23  

It’s not easy to work out what’s going on when people are saying more than they should. Their opinions create confusion. Meanwhile, other folk, who could make a valuable contribution, are keeping quiet – which also undermines the communication process. Can you do something to improve this situation? Of course! If you listen carefully, you’ll access your Libran superpowers. With your ability to see all sides of the story, you can create a space where people work collaboratively. Make that your goal this weekend.

SCORPIO 

 October 24 – November 22

Relationships are transactional. Every interaction involves a power struggle. Most of the time we don’t notice we’re doing this; the transactions occur in ways that work for both parties. Interestingly, we often assume that in order to get on well with someone we need to have lots in common and agree on most issues. Yet the reality is that we can get bored if our interpersonal communication doesn’t contain the occasional challenge. If you experience tension with someone this weekend, it could turn out to be hugely positive!

SAGITTARIUS

November 23 – December 21  

Our time on this ball of rock is limited. Since we can’t turn back the hands of time every moment is precious; we can’t relive anything. And we never know, for sure, how many moments we’ve got. I know talking about impermanence makes us uncomfortable. But being aware of it gives us perspective, which is invaluable. With so much going on, it might be easy to lose your ability to prioritise this weekend. But by keeping things in proportion, you’ll find an answer you seek. Just don’t assume you know what you need to know! 

Now is the right time for you to take an in-depth, up close and personal look at your life. To get your full horoscope based on your date, time and place of birth, click here. 

CAPRICORN 

When we’re motivated and energised, everything feels possible. When we’re worn down and tired, everything feels difficult. You’re coming to terms with the fact that you find yourself dealing with a situation that isn’t as exciting as it used to be. You entered it with enthusiasm, but your interest has faded. Can you back out and choose a different option? Well, before you can answer that question, make sure that you’re not at a temporary low ebb. This weekend brings a development that can reignite a flame of inspiration.

AQUARIUS 

January 21 – February 19

 While it’s true that you’re dealing with a significant issue, we need to think about why you’re letting it get to you. Could you be taking it too seriously? Could you (dare I say it) be overreacting, and interpreting a gentle concern as a reason to feel fearful? To work out what’s really going on you need to gain a sense of perspective. And the good news is that’s what this weekend has in store. The legacy of the Mercury/Venus link lets you stand back and reassess. You’ll immediately see the right way in which to step forward.

PISCES 

February 20 – March 20

If you adopt a psychological approach, this weekend can be surprisingly positive. If, for example, you need to explain something to someone, try putting yourself in their shoes. Think about what might make you feel anxious, defensive or doubtful. You’re a Piscean. You know that empathy and understanding are key to good communication. And if you look at your concerns regarding a situation that’s making you uncomfortable, think about what you’d like someone to say to assuage your fears. If you ask, you’ll receive!
