Weekly horoscope for Aug 20-26: What the stars have in store for every zodiac sign revealed

ARIES

MAR 21 – APR 20

In the run-up to a special weekend you welcome the sun in your well being sector, while in-control planet Mercury pushes back. 

So you can look again at health switches or glitches that may have knocked you off course, and find ways to fix them. 

At work, too, you are firmly your own boss, planning your own time.  

But love-wise, Venus encourages last-minute role reversals, especially with a sexy Scorpio.  

TAURUS

APR 21 – MAY 21

Those creative ways you show you care, but also move love – and life – bonds to the next level, are spectacular this week. 

If you’ve been left on hold for a “yes” or even a “maybe”  you can set a time limit now, and boost it with your own pride, rather than passion power games. 

Avoid too-rigid views on kids, or a career linked to them, as meeting “G” may change your mind.

GEMINI

MAY 22 – JUNE 21

The sun lights the deepest foundations of your chart to show which promises you need to stick to, which can be let go. 

Loyalty must be two-way to work, and deep down you sense this. 

There’s a lot of temptation flowing this week, when you least expect it – but you have inner strength that just grows even more rock-solid when tested. 

New love is revealed as a video is rewinding.  

CANCER

JUNE 22 – JULY 22

You can sense Mercury’s new retrograde in your communication style – this week you may be less discreet than usual. 

But revealing feelings you usually hide can be a positive move, and at work and at home, you know an honesty session is overdue. 

As for love, trust your own opinion of a new face, rather than other people, who may have a hidden agenda. 

Coupled-up Cancer is ready to commit 100%.

LEO

JULY 23 – AUG 23

There’s new energy and  luck in your cash chart as the sun moves in – but you also have the cautionary presence of Mercury moving back.

This is a week for bold buying and selling choices – but only once you’ve ticked all the research boxes. 

This process can fly through once you start. 

Passion is waiting where you hear your name read from a list.  

Luck opens a red door. 

VIRGO

AUG 24 – SEPT 22

Your time in the sun begins with a bang and only gets better – make sure you’re ready for exciting challenges this week. 

At work, however hard you try to wriggle out, you know a big new role is a perfect fit. 

At home, it’s daunting to take step one, but your vision for a family can be sensational, once you do. 

Love is meaningful – quiet times together prove it. 

LIBRA

SEPT 23 – OCT 23

Those vulnerable parts of yourself you keep safely hidden,  are your secret strength this week. 

You have the pure insight of the moon to unlock other people’s feelings, but best of all you really understand yourself. 

And offer as many chances as you need to make a crucial inner change. 

A dream of a sunshine location can be reflected in a real-life conversation.  Luck counts up in fours. 

SCORPIO

OCT 24 – NOV 22

With the sun in your sociability zone you wow individuals and audiences everywhere you go this week – and a role linked to bridging political, or personal, gaps can come closer. 

If you’re single, meet The One where signatures are being gathered. 

A love dream you’ve never shared can surprise you by emerging fully formed from a partner’s lips. 

The luckiest numbers link to a favourite rhyme from your childhood. 

SAGITTARIUS

NOV 23 – DEC 21

The top of your chart is hot and happening, so instead of keeping goals casual, zoom right in on them, and push for results. 

In a fitness race, now you have all the focus you need – but only you can use it. 

In a family, no need to pretend satisfaction if you know you need more. 

A truth-telling moon helps you judge if friends, new or old, are genuine. 

CAPRICORN

DEC 22 – JAN 20

Adventure and experience top your chart’s weekly agenda -helping you adapt, and grow. 

So do ditch any idea that you can only succeed exactly as you are.  

The new you can be a revelation, as much to yourself as everyone else.

If you’re single, cheeky Venus brings back an ex you may not recognise, until your heart is re-hooked. 

In love? One heartfelt gesture can be worth a thousand words. 

AQUARIUS

JAN 21 – FEB 18

Maybe you’ve talked about something, or someone, for ages – but this week your words are finally heard. 

Things can move fast after this, so be ready to move with them. 

Your soppy side is near the surface, and specific music or images can bring it out. 

Do tap into the inspiration this brings you to create beautiful things of your own. 

Luck circles an item found in the street. 

PISCES

FEB 19 – MAR 20

Deals of all kinds are in your planet spotlight – a long-running negotiation can finally finish this week.

Plus you can refresh several recent lines of connection. 

When you are clear what is fairest, rather than easiest, agreement gets easier. 

Jupiter’s golden luck surrounds March birthdays and special celebrations planned for “3” dates. 

Love wants you to take it seriously – even if this may feel a big move for you.
