Career horoscope forecast: August 2020
1 Aries - 21 Mar to 20 Apr
image

With Venus in Aries’ 4th house of foundations and home, much of Aries’ attention may be focused on ensuring you make progress and be productive in your work life. However, do not let long term goals cause you to make short term mistakes. In short, be aware of the people and resources that are around you now. Keep your head out of the clouds. However, be cautious, as while you may be enthusiastic to jump on new projects or make your voice heard, the fiery energy this month can lead you to be more reckless or unconsciously aggressive in achieving your goals. This can be a highly productive month so do your best to avoid these mistakes.

Lucky Dates: 8th, 9th, 18th, 19th
Lucky Colour: Bright Yellow

2 Taurus - 21 Apr to 20 May
image

On the 3rd of August, the Full Moon enters Taurus’ 10th house of career and reputation. This is the time where you must strive to put your best self on display. This is a transitionary period for Taurians. Some of you may be leaving an old mindset behind or putting to rest issues that have been bothering you for a while. However, this change will take time and Taurians must be careful not to let themselves caught up in new drama or issues before they have completely settled older ones. New obstacles may arise that you will have to jump over quickly before they pile up and become a mountain in your way. Do not wait too long before addressing issues.

Lucky Dates: 10th, 12th, 24th, 25th
Lucky Colour: Light Green

3 Gemini - 21 May to 21 Jun
image

Venus enters Gemini’s 2nd house of work and money from the 7th onwards. Geminis may find that this is a month where work is heavily dependent on relationships and personal feelings. Debates will likely favour compromise and you may not be able to pull everything into your corner. Learn to humble yourself instead of trying to push for your own way all the time. Sometimes, salvaging a business relationship for a future venture is worth allowing for some change if it doesn’t heavily shift the focus of the project at hand. Attempt to appeal to morals and personal values, however, avoid being underhanded or manipulative.
