Your Daily Horoscopes for Monday, August 27

What we do now has consequences in the future, and the ambitious Capricorn Moon reminds us that the most reliable way to ensure success now is to work hard until it pays off. Although the Moon symbolizes our fluctuating moods, we try to gain stability by building and reinforcing structures in our lives that don’t change. Meanwhile, our assumptions are challenged today as logical Mercury aligns with evolutionary Pluto and revolutionary Uranus.

 

Aries Horoscope
Aries Horoscope (Mar 21 – Apr 19)

You have a lot to do today, but your responsible attitude goes beyond the normal business hours. Your top priority is to finish your chores, so make a list of all your tasks and stay focused until you have made a serious dent in your work. Put your stress to use by pushing extra hard to tie up any loose ends now. Don’t delay because your reservoir of energy could dissipate later in the week.

Taurus Horoscope
Taurus Horoscope (Apr 20 – May 20)

You may feel as if you are meeting resistance wherever you go when you would much rather be spending quality time with a close friend or partner. But others might seem emotionally cooler now as they set up roadblocks to delay your possible satisfaction. Try not to get too worked up over the stress. Instead, concentrate on the love that is in your life; celebrate the cup being half-full instead of complaining that it’s half-empty.

Gemini Horoscope
Gemini Horoscope (May 21 – Jun 20)

Your greatest concern now is that you can’t pursue every curiosity that pops up in your life. Your time and energy are limited by circumstances beyond your control, and your current situation may prevent you from being as footloose and fancy free as you prefer. Yet, behind the apparent frustrations, important changes are occurring in your private inner world, so don’t stand in the way of progress.

Cancer Horoscope
Cancer Horoscope (June 21 – Jul 22)

Your emotional neediness could prevent you from finding happiness now, for it is not likely that others will meet your expectations. This is not as bad as it might sound since the real lesson here is about learning what you can give yourself. Use your time wisely to clearly define what you want from a relationship. If you are already in a close partnership of any kind, you may need to back off a bit to allow everyone involved more breathing room.

Leo Horoscope
Leo Horoscope (Jul 23 – Aug 22)

It seems as if your life is going to settle down now, but this may be a premature judgment. Even if you see solid movement in your career, there are unexpected twists and turns in the path you have chosen. Be smart and prepare for whatever you might find once you get around the next bend in the road. Your ability to analyze the facts and decide what is most important will help you through this difficult phase.

Virgo Horoscope
Virgo Horoscope (Aug 23 – Sep 22)

Some people mistakenly think that creativity originates only from the wellsprings of inspiration. However, the source of your creative streak may be triggered from your desire to finish a project now. You know what you want and you have the ability to transform your professional ambitions and romantic urges into serious practical manifestations. Whatever you do today, be certain that it is done with a greater purpose in mind.

Libra Horoscope
Libra Horoscope (Sep 23 – Oct 22)

Tension finds its way to the surface today, even if you are trying to maintain stability at home or in your relationships with your family. But a disruption to your routine might not be such a bad thing if it puts you in touch with repressed emotions. Don’t resist your feelings now, even if they make you uncomfortable. Increased awareness facilitates positive change that may already be overdue.

Scorpio Horoscope
Scorpio Horoscope (Oct 23 – Nov 21)

You may be facing two very different issues now. On one hand, you are redefining your own boundaries — and this can lead to increased isolation for a while. On the other hand, a parade of amazing revelations prevents you from slipping into self-pity. Ultimately, you’re amused by the soap opera that is your life. This is a very healthy attitude since personal growth is possible if you reduce the drama by cultivating some emotional detachment.

Sagittarius Horoscope
Sagittarius Horoscope (Nov 22 – Dec 21)

Although self-criticism can be a powerful motivation at certain times in your life, it just slows you down now. If your typically high self-esteem is presently faltering, make a deal with yourself to travel the depths of your subconscious. Decide what’s most valuable and then come back up to the surface refreshed and ready to work for what you want.

Capricorn Horoscope
Capricorn Horoscope (Dec 22 – Jan 19)

Waves of intense feelings wash over you, but your tendency is to strengthen your tide walls so you can shut off the flow of emotions. You may be afraid that if you allow these feelings to rise to the surface, they will destabilize your personal world in ways that are not easy to manage. However, the more you try to hold back your irrational emotions, the greater the possibility of unwanted changes. Relax your resistance; you can learn what you need to know by trusting your inner wisdom.

Aquarius Horoscope
Aquarius Horoscope (Jan 20 – Feb 18)

Someone may be trying to control your behavior today, yet you don’t seem to have enough information at your disposal to resist with confidence. There are hidden pieces to the puzzle now and it’s difficult to fight an unseen enemy. Rather than actively arguing point by point, it’s more productive to hold on to familiar routines for a while longer. The truth becomes clear soon enough, and there will still be time enough to act when it does.

Pisces Horoscope
Pisces Horoscope (Feb 19 – Mar 20)

You are being prohibited from expressing yourself as freely as you would like today, yet this restraint ironically works in your favor. If you say whatever is on your mind now, you could inadvertently offend the people that mean the most to you. If you can’t say something nice, don’t say anything at all. Patience is your best friend; proceed slowly and with great intent.
