It’s Sunday, August 31st, and one star sign has been told to follow their gut regarding romance.
There are 12 zodiac signs – Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, and Pisces – and the horoscopes for each can give you the lowdown on what your future holds, be it in work, your love life, your friends and family or more.
These daily forecasts have been compiled by astrologer Russell Grant, who has been reading star signs for over 50 years. From Aries through to Pisces, here’s what today could bring for your horoscope – and what you can do to be prepared.
Aries (Mar 21 – Apr 20)
Follow your gut feelings regarding romance. A lengthy trip could put pressure on your relationship. Prioritise quality time with your partner. Your restlessness has been a constant. Establishing more stability in your life will help you recognise and value the blessings you have.
Taurus (Apr 21 – May 21)
If you’re unhappy where you live, think about moving to a more affluent neighbourhood. Attractive buildings and green spaces will lift your spirits and motivate you. Don’t be surprised if you feel like expressing your emotions in writing. Sharing your experiences through poetry and art will feel therapeutic.
Gemini (May 22 – June 21)
You’re tired of having to ask a friend or loved one to repay loans. If you can afford it, look at the money you give them as gifts. This will prevent resentment from damaging your relationship. You have the opportunity to earn a decent salary at a nonprofit or cultural organisation, so don’t feel guilty about your achievements.
Cancer (June 22 – July 23)
An older relative is demanding too much of your time. After you complete a challenging task, they want to give you even more responsibilities. Resist the temptation to say yes. You’ve already made personal sacrifices for your loved ones. Once you’ve fulfilled your obligations, be sure to take some time for yourself.
Leo (July 24 – Aug 23)
It would do you good to step out of your comfort zone to try something new. This could involve trying a different type of workout, dabbling in a new art form, or adopting a new look. If you have been feeling lonely, new experiences will lead to exciting new friendships.
Virgo (Aug 24 – Sept 23)
You’re getting annoyed with yourself as you aren’t making any progress with a skill you had hoped to develop. Focus on your blessings rather than what you lack. Also find enjoyment in spending time with your loved ones at home instead of seeking distractions elsewhere.
Libra (Sept 24 – Oct 23)
You have been sticking behind the scenes for a while, and now you’re ready to shine. It is time for you to seek recognition for your hard work. So go ahead and enter that contest, audition for a role, or share your writing for feedback. Showcase your talents.
Scorpio (Oct 24 – Nov 22)
Work obligations may limit your time for spiritual activities but this can’t be helped. Currently you need to focus on the practical affairs of life. Stay focused and avoid the urge to procrastinate under pressure. Completing a noteworthy project on schedule can lead to a promotion.
Sagittarius (Nov 23 – Dec 21)
Is shopping really going to improve your mood? Purchasing nice items will not lead to lasting happiness. In order to feel truly content, why not work on improving your artistic skills? Taking up a creative hobby will provide greater joy than adding to your possessions.
Capricorn (Dec 22 – Jan 20)
You are becoming aware of how little your family has shared with you and you wonder why. When you provide positive feedback and support rather than criticism, your loved ones will be more open to your assistance and involvement. They will no longer hide their efforts and will begin to seek your advice.
Aquarius (Jan 21 – Feb 19)
A strong bond with a new friend is mending past hurts. Yet a housemate or relative feels threatened by this friendship and frequently makes sarcastic comments about your partner. It’s best to address this issue early on. Be clear about your loyalty.
Pisces (Feb 20 – Mar 20)
Joining a book club, writing group, or discussion forum is highly recommended. Making friends with like-minded people will have many benefits including receiving help to grow the bold ideas you have been holding onto. Finding a supportive community makes a big difference to your happiness levels.
