It\u2019s a buoyant start to perhaps the most rosy week of August. That glass-half-full perspective serves you well as you sail into the middle of the week which is primed for a luscious surprise. It\u2019s the relationship curveball you never expected, and while your initial reaction might be \u201chell no!\u201d give yourself a minute to regain consider exploring the opportunity. You don\u2019t need to commit to a lifetime together, but there could be a valuable lesson to be learned if you\u2019re prepared to see where things lead\u2026<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"contentpasted0\">Hot tip: I always recommend you read your rising sign for the most resonant advice.

It\u2019s the ideal vibe for tackling something small, necessary but a little bit scary; not so great for anything where the stakes are high or you could find yourself regretting that \u201cof course I can do that,\u201d in the not so distant future. Brace yourself mid-week for a blast from the past sliding into your DMs. If you\u2019re not in the market, crank up a long-forgotten playlist and sing your heart out at Super Bowl halftime-volume.<\/p>\n<p><strong>TAURUS AND TAURUS RISING<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Your peak moment this week hits around Tuesday when the planets grease the wheels of communication to make an impression. Capitalise on the good vibes by tackling a difficult conversation, or asking for a favour. All signs point to \u201cyes\u201d with the Moon, Sun and Jupiter chipping in to help you get the result you\u2019re hoping for. Resist the urge to paint your bedroom mocha mid-week (now is not the time to make dramatic changes!). The weekend brings a lightbulb moment brings a sense of clarity to your Venus retrograde story.<\/p>\n<p><strong>GEMINI AND GEMINI RISING<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Dream journals at the ready! If you\u2019ve been searching for the answer around a matter of the heart, this week could bring you the clue you\u2019ve been looking for. But rather than searching out there in the world (read: sneaky Googling) for your validation, it\u2019s while you\u2019re sleeping you might come up with the solution. Pay attention to dreams on Tuesday and Wednesday night (all timezones) for the pearl of wisdom that could help you realise what it is you\u2019re meant to do next. If you still aren\u2019t sure, meditation on the weekend could help guide you to where you need to be.<\/p>\n<p><strong>CANCER AND CANCER RISING<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cHow long has it been? Too long!\u201d This week\u2019s skies are primed to deliver an old friend, colleague or contact resurfacing of the blue. With the skies delivering a left-field connection, it\u2019s the reunion you didn\u2019t know you needed. If the contact isn\u2019t quite first hand (ie. it\u2019s news of someone from your past, rather than an actual message addressed to you), reflect on what they represent in your life. There\u2019s something to be gleaned, and the energy over the weekend is *chefs kiss* for figuring out what you\u2019re meant to take away from the whole situation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>LEO AND LEO RISING<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s all on this week for lions, with Venus retrograde reaching its lusty climax. After a sunny start on Monday, the pull to do something (or someone) totally out of the ordinary reaches a peak on Wednesday and Thursday. Pay attention to people, pleasures and opportunities that present \u2013 there\u2019s something more than your first reaction. If you can\u2019t figure out why you\u2019re suddenly saving tattoos to a private folder, by the weekend you should have clarity. Just try to hold off on pulling the trigger on drastic style updates until next month.<\/p>\n<p><strong>VIRGO AND VIRGO RISING<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s a push\/pull going on this week as part of you yearns to take it slow, while another is feeling motivated to tick off that to-do list and get sh*t done. If you can, try to favour that yearning to take it slow and look for ways to lean into the pleasure of solitude and silence. How can you make doing less, feel truly delicious? Let your intuition guide you \u2013 especially when it comes to aesthetic and relationship matters \u2013 feeling, not doing, should be your number one goal.<\/p>\n<p><strong>LIBRA AND LIBRA RISING<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Spontaneity rules supreme this week as the energy encourages you to grab your chosen family and do something fun. Whether it\u2019s the guest list, the venue or the dress code, shake up your usual social scene by throwing in some wildcard energy. Mid-week is the best moment to send the invite, then plan a last-minute knees-up for the weekend. The astro weather is just too fun to let a good time pass you by.<\/p>\n<p><strong>SCORPIO AND SCORPIO RISING<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>No one enjoys a plot twist quite like you, and this week\u2019s astrology definitely doesn\u2019t disappoint. A totally left-field introduction could be just the thing to renew your interest in something or someone \u2013 especially at work. Keep an open mind and give yourself til next week to come back to them with an answer. The energy on the weekend is en pointe to help you make a call on your next move, one way or another.<\/p>\n<p><strong>SAGITTARIUS AND SAGITTARIUS RISING<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Make the most of a wave of optimism early in the week when your ruling planet brings the good vibes to the nitty gritty of your everyday schedule. Send the email, ask for the favour or sign on for that short course in Spanish you\u2019ve been considering taking. By the middle of the week, a random introduction or offer \u2013 possibly from someone you went to uni or college with \u2013 has the potential to expand your horizons. Believe that things <em>can <\/em>work out and let yourself experiment with where things might lead.<\/p>\n<p><strong>CAPRICORN AND CAPRICORN RISING<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>You mightn\u2019t usually meet surprises with a heartfelt \u201cyay\u201d quite as much as some other signs (oh hi, Gemini!) but there something kind of sexy about this week\u2019s curveballs. With a big juicy hit of \u201cdidn\u2019t see that coming\u201d energy headed squarely for your pleasure sector, this week has the potential to bring some unexpected (possibly afternoon?) delights. Let yourself get lost in something decadent behind closed doors \u2013 with or without company &#8211; and indulge your senses. All work and no play makes Capricorn a dull girl.<\/p>\n<p><strong>AQUARIUS AND AQUARIUS RISING<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This Venus retrograde is hitting you hard and you\u2019re likely having all the thoughts about what you truly want\/need\/truly desire. This week that\u2019s set to get shaken up again when a curveball sails in to turn things upside down. Try to go with the flow (as hard as it is) and stay open to all outcomes. Keep tabs on what\u2019s coming up, and meditate on what the common thread might be around what you\u2019re yearning for, or what\u2019s missing from your main squeeze right now. If you\u2019re not soul-searching, look for co-stars and romantic leads from your past to resurface and give yourself permission to enjoy the attention.<\/p>\n<p><strong>PISCES AND PISCES RISING<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Your only mission this week is to double down on the self-care. With Venus retrograde continuing to shake up your daily routine, finding a sense of luminosity through simple things \u2013 movement, good food, rest \u2013 will serve you well. If you\u2019ve been experimenting with new diets or exercise, the weekend promises a lightbulb moment around what\u2019s truly working for you. Let yourself experiment, but make sure above all else, it feels like fun, lights you up and truly brings you joy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":29212,"featured_media":39508,"template":"","format":"standard","categories":[260,35],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v18.5 (Yoast SEO v20.4) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Horoscopes August 7 \u2013 13: The Rosiest Week Of August<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"But get ready for a romance curveball mid-week, says astrologer Emma Vidgen.
