August, 2019 Monthly Horoscope

Every two months, a portion of my horoscope below is featured in the Haida Gwaii Trader Magazine:

ARIES

Your creative ideas are taking root, dearest Aries. What you have been imagining your life to be, is taking form now. The fun of brainstorming is being followed with the hard work of materializing it. You are being asked, how much do you want this? Because if you do, it’s time to organize yourself enough to make it a reality, not just a thought.
Keywords: Performance, Production, Effort

TAURUS

Create to your heart’s content, dearest Taurus. You are supposed to be having fun right now so I hope that you are! You have the determination in your career and the means to complete whatever challenging project you are doing. Don’t let anyone or anything stand in the way of you fulfilling your dreams. 
Keywords: Conceive, Design, Build

GEMINI

The love and commitment of family is in the air, dearest Gemini. I’m not asking you to “hole-up” in your house, only that you allow your home life to play a part in your life now. Clean out the garage, attend a family reunion or help an elder in your family to become more mobile. Dedicate enough time in your days to accommodate the needs of others because if you don’t, you might be feeling too overwhelmed with all you need to do. 
Keywords: Household, Clan, Tribe

CANCER

It’s becoming the right time to practice open-mindedness, dearest Cancer. A lot of activities may be coming to the forefront. There are a fair number of balls being juggled in the air. It’s best to take them in order and eliminate any issues one step at a time. If you try to do too much in too short of a time, you may feel frustrated and bewildered. Move forward with intention. 
Keywords: Spotlight, Target, Focal point

LEO

We’ve arrived at the time in the year where you truly shine, dearest Leo! Doesn’t it feel good? Take this opportunity to be exactly who you are and don’t give out any apologies for doing so. There’s no reason to try to make yourself look smaller, when you aren’t. 
Keywords: Sun-up, Rise and shine, It’s a new day                                                                                                                                                        

VIRGO

Deep thoughts are consuming you now, dearest Virgo.  What are you looking back on in order to see the lessons of the time? It’s okay to reflect on your past right now in order to improve yourself. Just make sure that you come up with solutions and you use this time to the best of your ability. Which we all know is strong and determined. 
Keywords: Contemplate, Ponder Evaluate                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              

LIBRA

What are the goals of your heart, dearest Libra? Because now is the time to evaluate this. What are the lessons that you absolutely know you have finally learned? Create an environment that will allow you to accomplish anything that you truly want and need. No matter who says that it is unreasonable. Ignore their rhetoric and take steps forward anyway.  Keywords: Aspiration, Energy, Desire

SCORPIO

Welcome to being out there, front and center, dearest Scorpio. In spite of the fact that it’s not that comfortable for you to do so. Role model honesty and integrity, not because others are watching you, but because it’s who you are and what you stand for. Then, you may feel able to better handle the social pressure, knowing that you stand for the truth, always and all ways.  Keywords: Initiative, Spirit, Hope

SAGITTARIUS

It’s been a couple months practicing diplomacy, dearest Sagittarius. Not the easiest thing to pull off or learn, but very valuable to say the least. How’s it been going? You are starting to come out of the fog of other people’s projections of you and can now ride the wave of adventure with more freedom. Yippee! Plan a trip overseas or to your fav international restaurant. Celebrate the feeling of gratitude for a life well spent. 
Keywords: Credible, Reliable, Sure

CAPRICORN

Partnership and deep friendship are in the air, dearest Capricorn. You can compromise or you can be in charge, but it’s pretty challenging to do both at the exact same time. So how will you manage that? One thing that you can attempt is to be totally honest throughout the process. Communicate well, read between the lines and allow others to give advice as much as you do. 
Keywords: Connect, Convey, Get-across

AQUARIUS

Try to connect with others while you still value your freedom, dearest Aquarius. You can network all you want with others and still have time left over for yourself. This is the key to your happiness at this stage of the game. Plus, as you network, you might find that many more opportunities open up to you that you did not even consider. Surprise! 
Keywords: Connections, Imprint, Effect

PISCES

Be the best you can be, dearest Pisces. It’s time that you shine bright, especially when others are watching you. Practice completing the job and doing it while showing some pizzazz.  Work only feels like drudgery if you perceive it to be. Just as easily, you can whistle while you work. Keywords: Hardiness, Well-being, Bloom

Can you define your goals, dearest Virgo? Because now is the time to do just that. What inspires you to press on in spite of any hardship that has occurred?

Honesty is the key now, dearest Sagittarius. It can be challenging to do this with diplomacy, but the issues you are facing require it.

CAPRICORN

It’s time to face the music, dearest Capricorn.  How do you please all the others and still please yourself? How should you manage this? First of all, do it with a dollop of understanding.

Keywords: Adjust, Accommodate, Deal

AQUARIUS

Get inspired to do your best job, dearest Aquarius. You may need to take a hike into the backcountry, swim a swift river, or paddle board on a lake.
