Thursday 5th Aug - Romance: 21% Finances: 60% Work: 9% Health: 47% Emotions: 90%
People will help out if you need assistance and ask for it. Especially if you try, most of the time, to be independent
and you don't often ask for help, no-one will begrudge you a few moments of their time. There could be some
special moments shared with younger family members. If you find yourself with some time to spare you could
always catch up on your reading. Try genres you don't normally read and lose yourself in a good novel for a while.
Friday 6th Aug - Romance: 57% Finances: 78% Work: 1% Health: 26% Emotions: 90%
Mercury is getting closer to your natal Sun and will be in aspect in three days' time. You might want to get some
feedback on some of your recent thoughts and feelings but you may be aware of people who are too curious about
your ideas. They want to pick your mind because they're unable to come up with any original thoughts of their own.
For this reason, if you must confide in anyone, be sure it is someone you know you can trust. This is a good time
for get-togethers with like-minded people.
Saturday 7th Aug - Romance: 86% Finances: 80% Work: 33% Health: 54% Emotions: 39%
You might notice yourself becoming increasingly restless in a mental way now that Mercury is two days away from
connecting with your natal Sun. You're in need of more excitement or variety in your life now. Your need for
something different could spark a new beginning perhaps a home-study course to further your knowledge in a
subject you've always been interested in - purely for pleasure, of course! You have strong views and in some
aspects of your life you will be working single-mindedly towards your aims.
Sunday 8th Aug - Romance: 62% Finances: 84% Work: 34% Health: 56% Emotions: 38%
You're extremely popular these days. You could find yourself at the centre of attention and whatever the reason,
you will enjoy feeling needed and appreciated. You're generous in your dealings and there will be enjoyment
through cultural, social and recreational activities. You're determined to look on the bright side.
Monday 9th Aug - Romance: 34% Finances: 68% Work: 47% Health: 67% Emotions: 50%
A private conversation will give you a lot to think about. Creative pastimes and anything that demands inspired
thought and imagination will bring you pleasure and success. You are strongly aware of background influences that
not everyone will pick up on and you might also notice increased levels of psychic ability.
Tuesday 10th Aug - Romance: 0% Finances: 25% Work: 58% Health: 59% Emotions: 55%
You feel a strong need to clear away matters that need to be concluded or rectified. This may involve some
research or talking with people about the past. If someone accuses you of being out of touch, ignore them. You do
know what you're doing. There may be some worry that a young relative is getting too deeply involved in a mystical
or religious organisation and this is starting to become an obsession.
Wednesday 11th Aug - Romance: 4% Finances: 20% Work: 46% Health: 32% Emotions: 76%
Two days ago Mercury was in connection with your natal Sun. You've been adamant that it is time to take up new
aims and although it is early days yet, you can see your vision starting to take form. You will have gone about
everything the right way and all is now neatly falling into place.
Thursday 12th Aug - Romance: 53% Finances: 41% Work: 43% Health: 14% Emotions: 59%
Mercury connected with your natal Sun three days ago and you will still be feeling the effect of this connection. You
have always known that you can make things happen through positive thinking and being assertive and this is just
such an example. It is becoming quite clear now that over recent days, you have been making the right decisions.
