August Horoscopes

by Henry Seltzer

Capricorn Horoscope (December 22 - January 19)
Cardinal Earth. Your ruling planet is Saturn.

Your concept of your future is changing rapidly, Capricorn. Compassionate connection with intimate partners is a deep mystery, and one that reflects on your own situation. Living for others rather than for yourself will get you only so far but it is perhaps difficult to escape that pattern. New information that comes to light has you thinking things through in surprising ways and then fitfully describing your new life direction to others, as the mood occurs. The closer you get to merging with another the more you realize that the most important connection that you have is with your own inner process.

As the month begins, you are fully involved with electric communication and optimistic partnership activity. It's an exciting time to be alive. You are continuing the transformation of your values and your ideas that began earlier this year, and the more that you allow yourself to give in to potential change and go with the flow of circumstances the better you'll like the conclusion. The Full Moon of August 9th is a particularly potent time for you. Financial and other type of resource are subject to some degree of illusion and even deceptive situations might arise, at this time especially, although this has perhaps been something of a constant theme lately. Financial resources are such an illusion to begin with, although we must also take them as real for the sake of the daily round of actions that determine our physical lives; they don't mean much in the bigger picture, except as counters in the game. And the game is really about our spiritual selves and the connections that we make with each other, helpful or hurtful as we find or stray from our ultimate intention for ourselves. As the remainder of the month unfolds, there may be some stuck places that you will get to, potential painful places where issues of security, boundaries and finding the dynamic of intimacy that works for both partner and self. If you gracefully try for the integration of heart and mind, hand and soul center, you'll do all right in the final result, although you may experience some element of tension and difficulty seeing your way clear to this place of balance, especially at the time of the Last Quarter Moon of Tuesday the 15th and the week following, when mental adjustments might need to be made. The New Moon of Wednesday, August 23rd, represents another shift, a further perspective, and another turn around the spiral path of your evolving destiny.
