Your Love Horoscopes for the Week of August 13th

 

There may be explosive devices on the road to love as sweet Venus crashes into hard aspects with volatile Uranus and provocative Pluto on Wednesday and Thursday. Radical changes in circumstances and sudden shifts in attitudes can slam shut one door, but then a window of opportunity swings open just as quickly. Stay flexible and expect the unexpected when it comes to matters of the heart. The expressive Leo New Moon on Friday morning adds another dash of drama to the mix.

Give your pursuit for romance a rest as a more patient approach to partnerships is called for this week. Irrepressible Mars joins responsible Saturn in your 7th House of Others on Wednesday to bring relationship issues to a head. You can repair damage and earn trust by being truthful about your desires. It’s not easy to deal with a demanding person or a stressful situation, but this is a chance to demonstrate that you’re willing to work for love. The bold Leo New Moon on Friday gets your weekend off to a hot and spicy start.

This complex time is highlighted by your key planet Venus’ stressful connections with disruptive Uranus and evocative Pluto midweek. Don’t try to hold on  to plans, people or values that have outlived their usefulness. If you’re willing to let go of the past and step out of your comfort zone, which admittedly isn’t easy for Taurus, Friday’s generous Leo New Moon will bring you even more pleasure in return. The transition may be a bit bumpy, but is a necessary part of your heart’s journey.

Scorpio Horoscope

But if you’re working for a cause in which you passionately believe in, you could make a special connection that will reward you on a personal and professional level.

Sagittarius Horoscope
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Your challenge this weekend is to figure out how to take care of all the tasks on your plate and still have some time left over for fun.

Demonstrating how organized you can be may not sound especially enticing, but planning ahead can enhance your reputation and sends a clear message that you are someone who can be trusted.

Capricorn Horoscope
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Escaping from your usual environment puts some extra spice in your personal life this weekend. The earthy Virgo Moon will be in your 9th House of Faraway Places on Saturday and Sunday, which gets your blood pumping when you hit the road. Combining business with pleasure is recommended, but express opinions graciously since minor debates might get out of hand if you’re not careful. Think of life as an adventure and enjoy the ride.

Aquarius Horoscope
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Friday’s audacious Leo New Moon falls in your 7th House of Relationships, which is bound to heat up your personal life. An individual could come on so strong that it turns you off.

Instead, why not take the lead by making your own bold and exciting plans for your current squeeze or by openly sharing your feelings with someone you want to know better.

Pisces Horoscope

If you’re single and looking, be discriminating about your connections. Don’t waste time on petty and critical people who are more into putting you down than building you up. Waiting for the right person who will cherish your heart is the first step to romantic success.
