Georgia Nicols horoscopes for Aug. 23, 2016

Moon Alert

We have the “all clear” today to shop and do business. The Moon is in Taurus.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Use the next four weeks to get better organized. Not only can you get better organized, you can also improve your health. Yes, you can have it all! (And while you are doing this, keep your eyes peeled for ways to improve your job.)

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

Lucky you! The next four weeks are fun and games. Take a vacation! Enjoy sports events, playful times with children, social get-togethers and romantic escapes. Just remember to be yourself and do what YOU want to do.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Your focus on home and family will increase even more so in the next four weeks. Possibly this is because your interaction with a parent will be significant. Meanwhile, home repairs and renovations continue to absorb your time.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Your daily pace will accelerate during the next four weeks. Just accept this and go with the flow. Short trips, casual get-togethers, new faces, new places plus increased reading and writing are just some reasons you will have a jam-packed schedule. (Gasp.)

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

For the next several weeks, you have four planets in the money sector of your chart. Ka-ching! This means you can boost your income. You might also make major purchases. But in the bigger picture, you will be giving a lot of thought to your basic values in life.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

With the Sun in your sign (along with Mercury, Venus and Jupiter) it’s all about you! Use the next four weeks to recharge your batteries for the rest of the year. You will easily attract important people and favorable circumstances to you. Awright!

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

The next four weeks are the perfect time to plan what you want your new year (birthday to birthday) to be all about. Give yourself some goals with deadlines. You don’t have to be a zealot. Nothing is written in stone. It’s a process that focuses your mind and gets results.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Your popularity is high in the next four weeks because younger people and creative types want to see your face. Enjoy group encounters. And enjoy good times with friends! This is also a good window of time to share your hopes and dreams for the future with someone.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

This is the only time all year when the Sun is at the top of your chart casting a flattering light on you. This means that in the next four weeks, you can ask bosses and parents for favors or approval. Yes, you have the powah!

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Grab every opportunity to travel and break out of your velvet rut during the next four weeks because this is what you want. You need a change of scenery! More than that, you want something stimulating and exciting to happen. You want to learn and discover more of life!

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

You have a lovely opportunity in the next four weeks to deal with shared property, banking, inheritances, taxes and debt. The reason this is a good window of time is you will probably come out ahead in your financial negotiations. This is also a good time to ask for a loan or a mortgage.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

Try to get more sleep in the next four weeks because you will need it. You will be very social and enjoy schmoozing with others, especially partners and close friends. In fact, in the month ahead, you have one of the best chances all year to learn more about your style of relating to others.
