Enjoy a Virgo Full Moon on Aug. 26. Everyone is a tad nitpicky. This has advantages. The Kaizen principle says that making incremental changes makes a great product, while preventing large failures. The dark side of paying attention to the details is that you may get lost in perfection. Madame G suggests you not let perfection get in the way of action. Seek balance.

 

Aries (March 21-April 19)

What’s on your mind? You’ve got a lot on your mind. In fact, you may notice that you’re a little on edge. Maybe you feel people are judging you or looking down on you. Before you react, take a moment to breathe. It may seem like the world is against you, but it’s not. You may be...

“When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth … He will glorify me, for he will take what is mine and declare it to you.” John 16:13-14 (ESV)

The Sun enters Virgo this week on Aug. 23. You may notice the details. This is a benefit, for the “devil is in the details.” But, don’t forget to take a step back and scope the terrain. You’re also looking at an entire forest. Madame G recommends that you use common sense. Don’t get so caught up in the details that you’re putting on makeup while the house is on fire. Plan ahead!

 

Aries (March 21-April 19)

Ease up! You’re capable and strong. Don’t get so caught up in your screw ups that you stop looking and moving forward. The only real failure is not to try. It’s okay to get down on yourself, but only if you get up and dust yourself off. Look towards the future and...
