Madame G guide to the stars WEEK OF AUG. 26 – SEPT. 1

E-mail Print PDF

On Aug. 27, Venus conjuncts Jupiter. This is a sensual pairing. You’ll notice an increase in your desire for the finer things in life and love. Consider what makes you happy and pursue it with all the strength and vigor associated with young love. Don’t take this new-found energy for granted, because it won’t last long. Madame G recommends you embrace the day with love.

 

Aries (March 21-April 19)

If you’re facing a new endeavor show love for those who support you. Ignore the haters and those who wear you down—they’re not worth your notice. Even if it’s a family member, don’t let someone else diminish your joy. You’re a gentler soul than most realize. Take care of yourself this week. Speak with your doctor if necessary, and don’t forget to smile..

Taurus (April 20-May 20)

If you have a child or children, it’s very likely that they’re your entire world. You love them more than they’ll ever know. If you’re not a parent, you shower love on animals, friends, and special projects. In many cases, you’ll give everything you have. But, don’t forget to show love for yourself. It’s better for everyone if you remain healthy.

Gemini (May 21-June 20)

Life is a bowl of cherries and green-chile stew. And you’re generally happy. Most people try to find their happiness outside of themselves. You’re one of the lucky few who realize that happiness only occurs from within. Do yourself a favor and have some fun. The stars will align with your sense of play. Enjoy a new love, job, or adventure. You’re lucky!

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

It’s time to try something new and embrace change. You may feel a little stuck in the mud. You’re in the mood to take on something new. If you’re feeling very impulsive you might buy a train ticket to anywhere or hop on a flight to wherever. However, if you’re less bold, consider dying your hair. Several companies make a great dye that you can spray on and wash off. Have fun!

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22)

As the Sun heads out of your sign, and into the more meticulous sign of Virgo, take a few breaths and enjoy the sunset. You’ll appreciate the stars in the sky and the cooling and refreshing air of the coming fall. If you didn’t get the birthday presents you wanted, just pretend. You can always donate them to charity. If you’d rather poke fun at the gift-givers, put on all the horrid gifts from the past and give them a fashion show. Be kind!

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Change is in the air. This is often terrifying for the steady “control freak” (i.e. Virgo). You may wish you’d made different choices or lived somewhere else. However, everything that happens to us happens for a reason. And it’s usually for the best. You can make this work for you. Accept the challenge with open arms and learn to love and embrace change, disorder, and lack of control. You can do this!

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct.22)

Fall is just around the corner. This will bring Chile roasting, warm fires, and the clear crisp scent of the desert. Are you ready? You’re preparing for a very interesting time in your life. This is the time to embrace something wonderful and new. It may seem odd at first, it may even seem like a flaw, but don’t make hasty decisions. Choose wisely and you’ll experience joy.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

Though it may be hard, that doesn’t mean it’s impossible. You’ll face challenges and change, much like anyone else. But you always face them with determination, strength, and power. Unlike many of the signs, you don’t easily forget who you are, but when you do, your psyche pushes it to the forefront. What do you want? Pursue your purpose with love and dedication, for it is you.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

If it feels as if the problems of the world are resting on your shoulders — they probably are. But that doesn’t mean you can give up. Reach out to your friends and family. Ask them for help. Let them know that you’re in need of a strong shoulder to get you through. It’s in your best interest to get some help. You don’t want it all to drop. Be brave and ask for help.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)

Life is a bit like the Olympics. You spend years training for something, and sometimes it just doesn’t work out. But sometimes it does work out and you get the gold. What’s next? If you find yourself asking: is this it? What do I do now? Consider taking a moment to reflect. You may have forgotten something in the rush toward whatever you were doing. Slow down and relax.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

You’re ready for some action. Life will pass you by if you’re not willing to act. This is true in life and in love. Sometimes you must think and process. But most of the time you just need to ask that pretty girl or guy out, demand a promotion, or start a business. Whatever the case, embrace it and don’t forget to be grateful. We’re all on this rock together!

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20)

So this is love? If you find yourself a bit confused and trapped in the middle, don’t take sides. Always consider both sides of the argument. If you love someone, you must be willing to hear them out. Even if you think they’re wrong, you’re not entitled to be disrespectful or mean. You’ll lose all credibility if you do. Save the world; show compassion and love.
