  • Horoscope August 2020 – words by Gabi Lussi

    STRATEGY AND EXCELLENCE

  • Mars’ six-month extended stay in your sign has given you greater control over your own life, as well as honed your natural skills as a true leader.

    A lot of energy is circulating and there aren’t any obstacles keeping you from achieving your goals, making this an excellent time to finish projects you have been working on for months.

    In love, things start to change from 8th August. Some of you will be itching for more freedom, while others are impatient, waiting for support that never arrives.

    The 9th and 10th are perfect for finding mutually beneficial solutions.

  • The long transit of Pluto, Jupiter and Saturn in Capricorn has shed light on situations that need to be faced in the proper way. Communication is the starting point; you need to learn how to negotiate and make deals. This is the weakness of your sign, which prefers to manage situations through uncompromising, unilateral control. Now, however, you must focus on opening doors without breaking them down.

    Your love life also requires a bit of diplomacy in order to come to an agreement with a partner, and difficulties in communication may create obstacles. There is a clear improvement during the second half of the month. The 24th and 25th are excellent days.

    In love, a climate of uncertainty and instability continues – especially for long-term couples. Some may even decide to go their separate ways. Things are much more auspicious for singles, as Mars in Aries is making you charming and spontaneous.

    There is a laid-back atmosphere in your love life. If you have grown distant from family, couples may want to spend time with relatives in order to re-establish feelings of closeness.
