AstroTarot Forecast for August 2024


1 Aries - 21 Mar to 19 Apr         Seven of Pentacles

 

Work

The Seven of Pentacles signals that there are many different projects or parts of your work that are competing for your attention this month. It can be a bit overwhelming as you are at multiple different crossroads and there seems to be endless obstacles in your way. However, you should view all of this as a test of your skill and all the time that you have spent preparing for such conflicts or situations. Start early by prepping your contingency plans and having other resources that you can fall back on. Take a cautious approach with the people around you, as they may not be what they appear on the surface.

 

 

 




Romance


A New Moon enters your 5th house of romance and love from the 5th of this month onwards. Its energy brings with it many new opportunities and eye-opening pathways for Aries. Most Aries may be planning a trip overseas with their family or to spend more time at home, but the New Moon’s energy may interfere with that as you run into various obstacles or calls from work that pull you away. Things will calm down towards the latter half of the month as you settle with this energy. Guard against taking underhanded matters to achieve what you want, the New Moon may also reveal hidden secrets this month.

Health

 

Despite the Seven of Pentacles’ dilemma, it is a strong and sturdy card that blesses you with good health. You have a relatively strong immune system and do not need to worry about falling under the weather. However, take caution when carrying out tasks or driving, as the Seven of Pentacles can become too caught up in their own thoughts, to the point that they become distracted or even focused on more negative issues. Try to keep an optimistic attitude and take some time off for your own mental wellbeing.

 

Finances

 

The Seven of Pentacles signals that you may have expenses from many different avenues this time. They can either be due to business expenses or personal expenses related to your family and friends. You will need to be a bit thriftier this month to offset all these expenses. Be a little stricter on yourself and learn to organize your budget accordingly. Try to avoid making any more unnecessary expenditures, especially on things that you don’t need.

2 Taurus - 20 Apr to 20 May          Nine of Wands

Work

 

The Nine of Wands encourages you to be prepared for whatever obstacles may present themselves in your path this month.

Do your best to have contingency plans, and avoid charging forward without thinking things through. Take things slowly and be patient with your projects. You may have to look over situations more than once and will need to employ extra caution to avoid making further mistakes or delays. Hunker down this period and do your best to meet basic expectations.

 






Romance

 

A New Moon enters your 4th house of home and family from the 5th of this month onwards. Its energy draws much of your attention to your household this month, and it might be good to take a break from work in order to focus on this area of your life. This doesn’t mean that you will be any less busy though, as there are many different chores or activities for you to take care of. However, be cautious of moving ahead with any major renovations this month, as Mercury’s retrograde may throw a wrench into many of your plans. There may also be conflicts or arguments this month, that you will have to consistently mediate till the end of the month. Be prepared as the Nine of Wands encourages you and try to avoid passing judgement without all the facts.


Health

 

The Nine of Wands indicates that you may be under a bit of stress this month, and your energy levels are not as high as they used to be. Taurians may find that they are burning out a bit faster this month, or hitting a wall sooner than they expected. This is normal and you should avoid being so hard on yourself. Find some time to relax and pamper yourself. Prioritize your mental and physical wellbeing and learn to put the brakes on things when you need it.

3 Gemini - 21 May to 20 Jun         Page of Cups

 

Work

 

The Page of Cups is a young card, that may be ruled by their emotions and governed by a lack of experience. Even the most senior positioned Gemini may feel like they are back to square one this month and have trouble following their usual routines. There may also be a higher chance of conflict or disagreements in the workplace this month. In order to make the most of this month, prioritize finding harmony and compromise with your colleagues. Remember to draw a clear line between business and personal feelings. Try to spend your energy evenly and avoid getting side tracked by workplace politics or drama. Focus on the task at hand and do your best to accomplish your goals.

 



Romance

 

Gemini’s home planet, Mercury, will go into retrograde this month, so it’s path may throw a few wrenches into your tight knit plans. The Page of Cups also indicates that emotions may be running a bit high and there will be some tension or conflict between you and your loved ones. It is important that you don’t let these arguments get out of hand. Remember that some conflicts are governed by good intentions by both parties and no one really wants to start a fight for sake of fighting. Don’t let your relationships be torn apart by such things. Learn to set aside any issues when prioritizing compromise and peace. Things will work out as long as you are patient.

 

Health

 

Geminis should take some caution this month when it comes to their health. Mercury’s retrograde may have you feeling a bit more sensitive, but the Page of Cups promises that most worries are unfounded this month. While your immune system is still going strong, your energy levels may not be as high as they used to, and you will need to take more time off to rest and take care of your own wellbeing. Most importantly, avoid letting your heart overrule your better judgement. Think before you act and take a step back to breathe if you ever feel overwhelmed.

 

Finances

 

Your finances may also take a bit of a hit this month, so Gemini should be careful about their overall budgeting and expenses. While your income promises to remain stable and reliable, your expenses may be the sorest spot this month, as you can expect increased expenditure. This can come from your personal or business life, and they will often come from necessary expenses that you cannot avoid. Take care to build yourself a nest egg before this period comes, and make sure that you have organized your financial plans for the month.

5 Leo - 23 Jul to 22 Aug         Six of Wands

Your decisions will have big ripple effects so take care with your choices. Don’t be too contented, as the Six of Wands indicates there may be some unforeseen obstacles coming your way in the latter half of the month.

Romance

 

The intensity of last month might follow you into this month, and the Six of Wands indicates you should be weary of potential arguments or conflicts that may arise in your personal and romantic social life. This month may give you a sense of déjà vu as familiar issues may be resurfacing and you will need to deal with them more seriously in order to properly close them out. The best thing to do this month is to try and avoid letting those old issues come up again, by avoiding actions that may draw out the same conflict. Work hard to maintain the harmony in your life, but if you cannot, then try to preserve the peace long enough for things to settle so you can handle these matters at a better time.

 

Health

 

Mercury’s retrograde throws up a lot of stressors and frustrations for you this month, so this can have an affect on Leo’s overall health and mental wellness this month.

As long as you are aware of yourself, then this month will be able to get by more smoothly.

 

Finances

                                    

Money may be a bit tighter this month, as the Six of Wands indicates you are going into a ‘battle’ of sorts with different areas of your life. Often times these ‘battles’ will be fought through monetary means, and this can cause you some more frustrations as you try to get a handle on your own wealth. Learn to be thriftier and organize your finances a bit more carefully. Make sure that you have a good savings net to fall back on if you need it. Your friends and family can also come in with great support if you need it.

A little moment to think something through can save you a lot of headaches in future.

 

Finances

 

The Four of Wands encourages you to keep an eye on your expenses as they are likely to be higher this month.

Things will get better over time, so just keep your head down and keep working hard.
