Your Weekly Horoscope: Finally! A Return to Normalcy!

August 27 – September 2, 2018

Feisty Mars turns direct at the start of the week, on August 27, which means that things can slowly return to normal. It probably isn’t wise to leap into action right away, though. Wait until dynamic Mars becomes more established in its forward motion, in about a week and half or so. With chatty Mercury now direct as well, some of the most frustrating delays can begin to melt away.

Eloquent Mercury also makes an awkward angle to Jupiter for the third and final time, which could inspire you to pool resources and skills with someone and perhaps collaborate on a project. However, it would help to look at the facts before you commit to anything.

The sun continues its journey through Virgo, encouraging you to refine your habits and jettison any that no longer work for you. Finally, jovial Jupiter continues its tie with ethereal Neptune, which could inspire big dreams.
