Horoscope for August 25, 2018

Moon Alert

Caution: Avoid shopping or important decisions all day today. The moon is in Aquarius.

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Keep an eye on your money and your spending habits today. Restrict spending to gas, food and entertainment. For anything else, just window shop. Make notes, do your homework, and wait until tomorrow to buy it. (Do yourself this favor.)

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

This is a loosey-goosey, unpredictable day! You feel it. Avoid important decisions. Avoid spending money on anything other than entertainment, gas and food. It’s a great day to play and schmooze with others, enjoy sports events and have lighthearted fun.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Please note that it is Moon Alert all day, which means avoid important decisions. Don’t volunteer for anything. Just coast. Restrict your spending to food, gas and entertainment. But do have fun! You feel restless and you need some action.

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

This is a fast-paced, unpredictable day. You might be focused on the wealth, possessions or money of someone else. If so, please be aware that this is a poor day for financial decisions. Do not sell or buy. (It’s OK to buy food, gas or movie or sports tickets.) Enjoy your day!

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

This is a tricky day because you might have excellent, moneymaking ideas; nevertheless, this is a poor day to act on them or execute them. But you can write them down, make note of them and consider them seriously tomorrow. Trust your hunches.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

You are keen to explore new activities or anything that might help you make discoveries about yourself in the world around you. You might want to study something new because you’re in the mood to explore far-out ideas. Nevertheless, all day today is a Moon Alert so do not commit to anything.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

This could be a restless day for you. On the other hand, some fascinating secrets might be revealed. Or you personally might have a Eureka! Moment or some kind of epiphany. Whatever happens, cool your jets and wait until tomorrow to act. (See Moon Alert above.)

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Great day to schmooze with others! Expect to meet a character or perhaps someone you already know will amaze you with unusual news. However, if someone asks for a commitment or a promise from you, don’t do it. Think about it but wait until tomorrow to respond.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

A parent, boss or maybe the police might come into your life unexpectedly today. It’s a surprise. Not only that, there’s a serious angle to it as well. Unfortunately, all of today is a Moon Alert, which means you need to wait until tomorrow to know what to do.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Travel plans might be canceled or delayed today. Ditto for college and university schedules. Study or an important discussion with a teacher or someone older might be in the picture. Agree to nothing important. Wait until tomorrow.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

You’re in the mood to do some financial planning and make important decisions regarding inheritances, taxes, debt and shared property. Nevertheless, this is a poor day to make financial decisions or commitments of any kind. (See the Moon Alert above.)

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

This is a lovely day to schmooze with others, although something, perhaps pertaining to money or possessions, will catch you off guard. Someone older could be in the picture. Whatever happens, be aware that this is a Moon Alert and you should postpone important decisions or purchases until tomorrow.
