The Sun's return to your work sector today is something that happens at this time each year. However, the Sun doesn't usually return so energised and electrified. With having returned just hours after yesterday's solar eclipse, even your intuition and imagination is fired up. This has fired up your creativity in a way that work and job matters can now benefit from.

Horoscopes for 23 August 2017
As the Sun returns to your home and family sector this may have professional forces bracing for an opposition. However, while there may be small signs of professional pressure or work/life balance tension today, this is just the Moon shaking the trees. Considering the massive work and job developments ahead, work/life balance is something to embrace rather than avoid.

While the Sun's departure from your income sector today will take the solar spotlight off your income situation and matters, it will level the playing field. Just having the Sun, let alone a total solar eclipse, in your income sector has put more weight there. However, with the Sun gone this levels the playing field and more evenly distributes the weight across the income, work and career fronts.

As much as the Moon's return to your income sector yesterday and now the Sun's return today is throwing work forces a lifeline, Pluto will be the first to tell you he doesn't need it. He might not need it, but as work tension and job pressure turns into motivation and even a sense of rebellion, this will definitely speed up the process.

Horoscopes for 23 August 2017
By pure coincidence both work and career forces are under pressure today. Despite how that sounds and to have both work tension and professional pressures doesn't sound like fun, this is an advantage. Work forces are under pressure from the Moon and career forces from Pluto, just as an alignment of work and career forces is coming together. Both under pressure, but being supported by the other, this is likely to see work and career forces fight back.

With the Sun gone from your career sector Mars is able to go to town and I really do mean go to town. No sooner does the Sun leave today than Mars teams up with Saturn, now in his final days in retrograde motion on the income front. Behind the Sun's shadow and having had to play second fiddle to a solar eclipse Mars, warrior planet of the cosmos, is ready to show what he can do.

While the work tension and job pressure of the last few days is dialling back from today, this is not impacting Venus, in her final days in your work sector. This is something that involves Ceres, a planet that will stay on after Venus leaves. Ceres' mission is much deeper, with any wakeup calls over the last few days providing clues to your needs in terms of job satisfaction and a sense of purpose.

Horoscopes for week beginning 21 August 2017
Don't be deceived by how the week starts, with both work and career forces presenting a different face to the reality. What you see as you move into the new week is Mercury, on his own and in retrograde motion in your work sector, while Pluto is under pressure on the career front. With both planets in your career sector in retrograde motion as well, first impressions might not be that good. However, it won't take long to realise any professional pressure is actually firing up a sense of rebellion. It is from Tuesday that things start to happen. It begins with the Moon's return to your work sector on Tuesday and is followed by the Sun's return a day later. All of a sudden new doors are opening on the job front, at a time when Mercury has spent nearly two weeks back at the drawing board. It is over the weekend that Juno's direct turn in your career sector sees the tide start to turn on the career front as well.

Horoscopes for week beginning 21 August 2017
Jupiter will be happy to keep a low profile at the start of the week. This is partly in order to get out of the way of the total solar eclipse and its intensity, but mainly because the planet of luck and expansion will be happy for the Moon's return on Thursday. Since Jupiter first returned to your work sector last September the Moon has been his constant witness. Returning every four weeks, the Moon's intuitive edge has helped you mark your progress, check that you're on track and gain important messages from the professional gods. Thursday is the same day that Jupiter moves into his final seven weeks and due to meet up just once more, this is when the real call to bring things home begins. While a host of planets are on their way to take over from where Jupiter leaves off, it is Jupiter that can bulldoze a path for them to follow. Listen to your instincts and then when the Moon leaves on Saturday, be ready to put everything you have into everything you do.

It is Venus' last full week in your income sector that continues to boost your professional confidence and breathe new life into old professional dreams. Having aligned with dreamy Neptune in your career sector earlier in the month, Venus will align with Chiron midweek. Where Neptune is the keeper of your professional dreams and aspirations, Chiron is the gatekeeper to old professional demons. Unless you can make peace with those old professional demons you'll never get to embrace your professional dreams, which is why Venus and Chiron's alignment midweek is so important. Venus gives you the confidence and motivation to realise that old professional demons were never real. By the time the Moon returns to your work sector over the weekend you'll have a chance to regroup. The Moon's intuitive edge can read between the lines and join the dots across the income, work and career fronts.

Horoscopes for week beginning 21 August 2017
A week that starts with a total solar eclipse on the income front was always going to be good news professionally. However, what you are likely to find shocking is not only how good that news is, but the major developments on the work and career fronts at the same time or leading on from this. The Sun, in his final days in your income sector, will remain aligned with Uranus, in your career sector, throughout the eclipse. Uranus is the 'great awakener'. This will be like holding hands with someone who is hit with lightening, with the charge passing from one to the other. Whatever the solar eclipse triggers on the income front, will create a charge on the career front as well. This is playing out during Saturn's final days in retrograde motion in your work sector, with his direct turn over the weekend bringing work and job matters to a major turning point. This is the week that everything until now has lead up to and everything from now will lead on from.

Horoscopes for week beginning 21 August 2017
Don't be put off by some work tension and job pressure at the start of the week, especially if it comes with a sense of 'here we go again'. This is the price you have to pay for the benefit of having Pluto in your work sector from 2008 to 2024. The price you have to pay for having a permanent advocate on board, is that at some point in each year the faster moving planets will move into opposition. After Venus' opposition last week, Ceres' opposition with Pluto until Wednesday is the final roadblock this year. However, this time is different and not just because this is just the third time in your lifetime they have opposed here. The difference is that both are dwarf planets, so more evenly matched and also both genuinely want what's best for you. The real game changer is the Moon's return to your income sector on Tuesday and the Sun's on Wednesday. This is when work tension and job pressure will turn to motivation or even a sense of rebellion.

Three weeks after Venus left your career sector and two weeks after a lunar eclipse on the work front, you finally have a chance to pull back. Last week the Moon made its first visit to your career sector since not only Venus left, but all the planetary activity for the year. While the wheels will keep turning on the work front, this is the first week in nearly four weeks where you can pull back and let things play out. It is not that things will come to a halt and in fact life is likely to be just as busy. The difference now is that you're no longer being fed new information. The professional gods are standing back, giving you time to process and work through what is already on the table. What is important this week is to trust your nose for money, especially in the second half of the week.

Venus' final days in your career sector should create some real urgency. Especially as the Sun, Mercury and Mars have already been and gone. Along with Venus, these are all the planets you can expect to move through in any given year and in Mars' case, just once every other year. Venus' departure over the weekend should bring all the planetary activity on the career front for the year to a close. However, for the first time in four years you have Ceres on board and as she won't leave until later next month, career and professional matters are in safe hands. This frees Venus up to make her final days more about fuelling your financial confidence, giving your heart a voice and leaving you with a clear sense of professional direction. What is clear, is that this year there is a hunger for something more meaningful. Ceres will stay on to help you explore what that might be.

It is hard to imagine a more electrically charged week or such a game changing week across the income, work and career fronts. In reality this is the week that everything until now has lead up to and everything from now will lead on from. A staggering amount of major developments and synchronicity make this a week where you have to have your eyes, mind and your options open from the get go. The trigger for everything is the total solar eclipse in your career sector at the start of the week. However, on Monday and Tuesday the Sun is aligned with Uranus on the job front and will be throughout the solar eclipse. Whatever this triggers on the career front will have implications on the job front as well. Even after the Moon leaves on Tuesday and the Sun on Wednesday the wheels won't stop turning. A fresh wave of career support will kick in, just as the tide turns on the income front over the weekend.

If the week appears to get off to a slow start professionally then you're where you need to be, which is in line with the professional undercurrents. For with Mercury, the only planet in your career sector in retrograde motion and more focused on retracing his steps, things really do get off to a slow start. Make the most of that, for you will good have a juggle to find time to reflect. The pace will start to pick up when first the Moon returns to your career sector on Tuesday and then the Sun a day later. Whether it's the Moon's professional instincts and imagination or the Sun returning to put the solar spotlight on your career situation and matters, this will reveal the work Mercury has been doing behind the scenes. By the time the Sun returns on Wednesday Mercury has been here for four weeks and in retrograde motion for nearly two weeks. This means there will already be a massive amount of options on the table from the get go.

If Jupiter wanted or needed to push professional matters to the forefront at the start of the week he would, solar eclipse or not. However, because the planet of luck and expansion doesn't need or want to, he'll be happy to wait. Until the Moon leaves your financial sector on Tuesday and the Sun on Wednesday, there will be a lot of financial intensity in the air. This is what Jupiter will be anxious to keep career and professional matters well clear of. Fortunately the Moon doesn't return to your career sector until Thursday and the timing couldn't be better. This not only gives you a chance to dive into your professional instincts and imagination after the solar eclipse is over, but this comes on the same day that Jupiter moves into his final seven weeks in your career sector. This is when you'll receive the insights and information to make these final weeks count.

By the time you move into the new week it has been 10 days since Venus and Ceres' alignment in your work sector ended. In that time the gap between them has widened, to a point where while they are still supporting each other, they are playing separate games this week. Due to leave over the weekend, Venus' final days in your work sector are all about boosting your confidence, fuelling your expectations and giving your heart a voice. Venus continues to work with forces on the income front and as the planet of money, she will also be working to point work and job matters in a lucrative sense of direction. In the meantime Ceres, not due to leave until later next month, is dropping back. Her focus is shifting more to maintaining the right work/life balance and updating your professional priorities. In the meantime, pay attention to your professional instincts and imagination over the weekend.

The words needed to describe this week and I'm talking across the income, work and career fronts, are words like 'massive', game changing' and 'electrifying'. While this week hosts the two biggest events of this professional year, it is the sum of everything coming together that makes this so game changing. So much so, that this is the week that everything until now has lead up to and everything from now will lead on from. Just a total solar eclipse in your work sector at the start of the week is enough to make this a game changing week. Yet the Sun is aligned with Uranus in your income sector on Monday and Tuesday, throughout the solar eclipse. Whatever is triggered on the job front will have a flow on impact on the income front. If that's not enough, Saturn's direct turn in your career sector over the weekend brings you to a major turning point. Whatever this triggered is just the start of something that will continue to unfold for weeks, if not months.

Aries
Horoscopes for August 2017
For the first time since the career push that every year always begins with, there are new developments on the job front this month. It began with Mercury's return to your work sector on the 26th July, four weeks before the Sun is due to return on the 23rd August. This is the point of every year when the solar spotlight will always shift onto your work situation and job matters. To have a four week head start is a valuable chance to get your head in the game ahead of time. Even more so as this is a slow burn. Mercury is the closest planet to the Sun and therefore the fastest planet. Mercury can race through your work sector in 15 days, barely giving you time to hear yourself think. This forces you to think on your feet, make snap decisions and make it up on the run. This is the fast burn you normally experience. To reason that this year is a slow burn, is that Mercury is at a crawl, due to his retrograde turn on the 13th August. From the moment Mercury returned last month he knew that whatever ground he crossed he will cross three times. Not due to leave until late September, this not only gives you a chance to approach work and job matters at a more measured approach, but aware that there will be an opportunity for a do over ahead. By the time the Sun returns on the 23rd September you'll have had your head in the game for four weeks and will have already spent 10 days retracing your steps. This gives you the time to measure twice and cut once.

Taurus
Horoscopes for August 2017
Have you ever had that pressure of having a deadline, having to go for an important interview, speak in public or put yourself out there in a way that there is pressure, but positive pressure? That's the kind of pressure there might be on the job front in the first half of the month. This isn't the work tension and job pressure you experienced in the first half of the year. This is constructive and productive pressure that gives you the push to put yourself out there. It is those situations where we are under pressure to do or be more, but we are in the arena, bloodied and battled, but it is showing up that allows us to prove out mettle and the timing couldn't be more perfect. On the 11th August Jupiter will move into his final two months in your work sector, not to return for another two years. And until the 8th August Jupiter is under pressure from Pluto. Not an opposition, which can create real work tension and job pressure and which you know all about from the past. This is the pressure that pushes you to make things happen and get things done. Coincidently the 8th August is when a lunar eclipse in your career sector brings the potential to bring career and professional matters to a head, turning and/or tipping point. This comes as there is a push to make Jupiter's final months in your work sector count. That whole period, centred around the lunar eclipse on the 8th August and Jupiter moving into his final two months on the 11th August, could see a rallying call go out across the professional front.

Gemini
Horoscopes for August 2017
It is telling and important that the Moon will make two visits to your work sector this month, but also the timing. Why this is important is that the Moon's monthly visits in general have become a lot more important. Think of it as a cosmic game of treasure hunt, where one clue leads to the next clue and so on, until you find the treasure. The treasure hunt you're on leads to Jupiter's return to your work sector on the 11th October. Between October 2017 and November 2018 is a period of job growth, opportunity and expansion. By the 11th August lucky Jupiter will be just two months away and the Moon's monthly visits bring the valuable clues, hunches and insights that will prove key to lining up for what lies ahead. So to have the Moon visit twice this month, is important. Especially as each visit means that Jupiter is four weeks closer. And as I said, the timing is crucial. With the Moon in your work sector from the 30th July to the 2nd August, means you'll start the month with an intuitive read on work and job matters from the get go. What makes this especially timely is that Venus returns to your income sector on the 1st August, kicking off the most potentially lucrative weeks of the year. At the same time this is a chance to gain a lucrative sense of direction that will prove crucial over the coming months. The Moon will come full circle from the 26th August to the 29th August. Coincidently, the 26th August is the day that Venus leaves your income sector. This bodes well for not just major new job developments ahead, but with a lucrative sense of direction from the get go.

Cancer
Horoscopes for August 2017
August is that month that professionally you desperately need. You might still have the same amount of work and demands on your plate and you may still work as many hours, but you are likely to find it hard to stay in the fast lane. If there is a short cut, something you can delegate, simplify or generally make it easier for yourself, you're likely to find it. It is not that you have lost your edge and more that collectively the professional gods are making the most of a chance to catch their breath. Fortunately this is a stunning month for income matters, with the professional gods happy for the money gods to take the wheel. If there is forward movement and new developments, this is likely to be driven by the money. What makes this a low key professional month, especially in terms of motivation and an unwillingness to work yourself into the ground, is that all three planets on the professional front are at a crawl. Eris, in your career sector since 1926 turned retrograde on the 20th July. As the slowest planet in the solar system, she will spend the majority of August at a crawl. The month begins with Uranus at a standstill, in preparation for his retrograde turn in your career sector on the 3rd August. This will put both planets on the career front in retrograde motion and it will stay that way until January. At the same time Saturn is slowing down ahead of his direct turn in your work sector on the 26th July. There are some busy months coming up, especially with Saturn leaving in December, but for now there is a strong, steady and stable, but slow force in play across the job and career fronts.

Leo
Horoscopes for August 2017
When Venus left your career sector in early July she wrapped up all the planetary activity for the year, which is incredibly late in the year. The Sun will always leave your career sector in May and often this will take all the focus on career matters for the year. So to still have Venus here into the early days of the second half of the year is rare. This has given you the extraordinary opportunity to move into this second half of this professional year with a clear mandate. Not only that, when Venus left she not only wrapped up her own month long visit, but five months of planetary activity. Last yet it took barely five weeks for all planets to move through. In addition you had double the amount of planets this year. This has put an extraordinary amount of focus on career matters, standing you in good stead for the rest of the year. You know what you want, you have all the resources you need and it will take very little to keep career matters on track. Venus' departure was when the professional gods went back to their default setting, which on the work and job front. For unlike your career sector, which is only active a few weeks or months out of every year, you have Pluto in your work sector from 2008 to 2024. It is the early part of the month that will be the most important for work and job matters, after which things will largely continue to plod along. For with Pluto in retrograde motion this is supposed to be a quiet point of the. Pluto is under some pressure until the 8th August. However, this is positive pressure, the kind that can get things done and make things happen. This is important, for the Moon will not only move through from the 4th August to the 7th August, but coming full circle from last month's Full Moon, could bring unexpected developments.

Virgo
Horoscopes for August 2017
On paper this is a quiet professional month, but there is a lot happening behind the scenes. Venus will begin the month in your career sector but only just. Leaving in the very early hours of the 1st August she will be gone before the Sun rises on the new month. You will wake on the 1st August to find her gone, but also her presence still very much in the air. This will see you start the month with a clear sense of what you want and with two very powerful allies. For while Venus will wrap up all the planetary activity on the career front for the year, in any year there would be more than enough momentum to keep things going. Especially as Venus was the last in a long line of continuous planetary activity that began in April. However, it was last month that Venus made some important allies, allies that will help keep your professional aspirations alive and will continue to support career growth. When Venus returned to your career sector early last month it was to find the South Node in your work sector for the first time in 17 years and Jupiter in your income sector, for the first time in 12 years. These are the allies that will keep the momentum and your motivation fuelled. This could see a lunar eclipse in your work sector on the 8th August trigger unexpected developments across the income, work and career fronts. Especially as this falls just a week after Venus' departure from your career sector and just as Jupiter prepares to move into his final two months in your income sector.

Horoscopes for August 2017
By this time last year all the planetary activity in your career sector for the year had run its course, having ended with the Sun's return on the 23rd July. The Sun will always spend the first three weeks of July in your career sector, shining the solar spotlight on your career and professional situation, matters and options. Last year the only planets to move through with the Sun were Venus and Mercury and as they both left before the Sun, the whole update was over within six weeks. That is not the case this year. Mars, making his first visit in two years left on the 21st July, two days before the Sun on the 23rd July. However, unlike last year this did not bring things to a close this year and you have two planets to thank for that. Two planets that are considered sister planets, so similar that one is simply a deeper version of the other. I am talking about Venus and Ceres, the two goddesses of the solar system. Ceres is making her first visit in four years and returned two weeks before the Sun left. It was only when the Sun and Mars left that this dwarf planet and the queen of nurturing was able to make her presence felt. Nine days separate the Sun's departure and Venus' return on the 1st August and Ceres has been using this time to get to the heart of your real professional priorities, even to a point of redefining your definition of professional success. By the time Venus returns to attract opportunities on the 1st August, you'll have a much better sense of what you want. With Venus here until the 26th August and Ceres until late September, this is the month where everything will come together. Where last year things have run their course, this year they're just getting started.

Scorpio
Horoscopes for August 2017
There are a few things you need to be aware of from the get go. The first is that there is going to be a lot of heat and intensity on the career front this month. So much so that there could be a lot of heat, intensity and what can be referred to as a 'fast burn'. By that I mean things happening quietly, with a lot of intensity and even some drama. Yet that is because you have some of the most stunning professional developments ever seen. When the Sun returned to your career sector on the 23rd July it was to find the North Node here for the first time in 17 years. But for Mars, who returned two days earlier, this is his first encounter in 36 years. The North Node is important because since early May it has been creating potential and carving out a clear trail forward. The North Node is also the reason behind a total solar eclipse here in your career sector on the 22nd August. This has the potential for major new beginnings, something you have been working towards since the Sun and Mars returned last month. This takes you into unchartered territory, for the last time you had the Sun, Mars and North Node in your career sector at the same time was in 1925, 92 years ago. Even just having Mars here, fuelling your professional passions, fighting and competitive spirit, was going to make this a busy, exciting and dynamic month. But when you add in a total solar eclipse and the element of fate, this can be game changing. The Sun will leave on the 23rd August, but Venus will team up with Mars from the 26th August, returning in time to help reap the spoils. Ironically on the work front things are pulling back, with all the action on the career front.

Sagittarius
Horoscopes for August 2017
Even though the Sun will always return to your career sector on the 23rd August, things kicked off four weeks earlier this year, with Mercury's return on the 26th July. This allows you to start the month with your head in the game, ideas on the table and the communication lines open. Yet from the get go it will also be clear that this year things are on a slow burn. Mercury is the fastest planet in the solar system and will usually move through in just 15 days. This creates a short and urgent period where you need to be thinking on your feet, making choices, decisions and plans on the run. However, Mercury is already slowing down as you move into the new month, ahead of a retrograde turn on the 13th August. This will see Mercury do a U turn and retrace his steps. This will eventually take him back out for the first 10 days of September, before starting again from the beginning. This means that every step that Mercury has taken from the 26th July to the 13th August he'll take three times over. The first time is getting to that U point, in which case he'll retrace the same steps for a second time. Then, when he turns direct early next month he'll start over again, tracing the same steps for the third time. This not only gives you time to consider your options and to think things through, but with the knowledge if you want to change your mind you have an opportunity for a do over. The Sun and Mercury will align on the 27th August and with the Sun moving forward and Mercury moving back, they'll bring 20/20 hindsight and foresight together.

Here since September 2016, Jupiter has returned to expand your professional possibilities and all of your career options. However, this hasn't always been easier, with the whole first half of the year not only dominated by months of pressure, but Jupiter's own retrograde phase from early February to early June. It wasn't until Jupiter turned direct and Mars returned to your work sector that things started to slowly inch forward. Now, after two months in direct motion Jupiter is starting to regain his speed, courage and determination to make his final months count. For on the 11th August Jupiter will move into his final two months and not due to return for another 11 years, this is when everything will start coming together. Of course, with the Sun returning later next month and Mercury, Mars and Venus over the coming months, you have until December to exploit all the potential. The early part of the month is the most important for Jupiter. Pressure from Pluto until the 8th August is the kind of positive and constructive pressure needed to give you that push to take risks and put yourself out there. It also helps that Venus will only leave your work sector on the 1st August. Pressure from Pluto is exact from the 1st August to the 8th August and it's on the 8th August that a lunar eclipse in your income sector brings the potential for a breakthrough. This is just a week after Venus left your work sector. This could trigger unexpected developments across the income, work and career fronts.

Horoscopes for August 2017
August is likely to be a stunning, but also an unexpected month for work and job matters. When Mars left your work sector on the 21st July and the Sun on the 23rd July, this should have brought all planetary activity for the year to a close. That was the case last year, with a very short six week update over by the 23rd July. This year this was the point where things started to get interesting. For once the Sun's glare moved aside, this revealed that Ceres had been waiting in the wings. Happy to watch from the sidelines while the Sun and Mars blazed a trail across the job front, Ceres was taking notes. For her first visit in four years is all about getting to the heart of your real needs. Ceres doesn't look at what a job needs or requires from you, but at what you need from a job, especially in terms of job satisfaction and a sense of purpose. This might seem a bit late, with the Sun and Mars gone, except for a twist of fate. Held back by a retrograde phase earlier in the year, Venus is late arriving to the party and doesn't return to your work sector until the 1st August. Venus is here to boost your confidence and attract opportunities and to have Ceres waiting at the door with a clear sense of your real needs and priorities, is a massive gift. Venus is here until the 26th July and Ceres until later next month, with the two goddesses of the solar system coming together to work their magic. What they are both aware of is the massive new career developments opening up from early October.

Pisces
Horoscopes for August 2017
From the get go there is a need to be aware that August is going to be crazy busy. Just one of the many factors in play in isolation and that would be the case, but put them together and there is the potential for something game changing. The reason why I'm telling you this up front is to warn you to pace yourself. From the get go there is a need to recognise the warning signs for where you might be starting to work yourself into the ground. The Sun will always spend the first three weeks of August in your work sector and until leaving on the 23rd August the spotlight is on your work situation and job matters, as it is at this time every year. However, this year you also have Mars here, making his first visit in two years. The six weeks that Mars spends in your work sector are always going to be the busiest six weeks in a two year period, both at work and in life in general. Having returned on the 21st July and not due to leave until early August, Mars is here all month and he has no compunction about working you into the ground. All Mars wants is to get things done and make things happen. This was already going to create a busy month, but throwing in the North Node takes this to a whole new level. This not only brings the element of fate into play and the fact that potential has been building since early May, but is the reason for a total solar eclipse on the 22nd August. This sets the scene for major new beginnings and new doors opening. This is just four days before Saturn's direct turn in your career sector on the 26th August is due to turn the tide on the career front.
