For the week of : August 30‑Sept 5

 The first of this week take a time out to contemplate your future prospects, and consider a few options that are sitting on your threshold. With this moment of clarity, you could be surprised to see that someone is ready with guidance or assistance ‑‑ and all you need do, is ask.

 September’s aspects indicate that your finances are on the upswing, so this would be a good time to do some serious long‑term financial planning. Remember the old African adage: “When you pray, move your feet.”

 Your CEO, the Sun (under the influence of pragmatic Virgo), and cleaver Mercury are combining their resources on Friday, endowing you with amazing insight into certain financial or domestic arrangements. The answers that arise will boost your emotional and physical well‑being.

 This clever planetary duo is also working on certain property and household affairs. By applying your natural creative flair and ingenuity, you will improve conditions for the ones you love, put a smile on your face and a spring in your step.

 If you are negotiating a settlement or financial wrangle, remember that with your financial guru, Mercury, clogging the lines of communication until the 12th, you can afford to play for time. This is especially true if you haven’t yet had the chance to do due diligence and work out a good plan. This week, if someone becomes a touch more aggressive than a situation warrants, they may be more interested in their own agenda, happiness or comfort than yours. You have no obligation to dance to their tune.

 Over the weekend, delightful Venus and romantic Neptune are at play. Take advantage of this wonderful vibration by calling on a few friends who inspire you and make you laugh. An innocent, seemingly uninteresting introduction could become a life‑long friend, business associate or soul mate. So once more, with feeling: “When you pray, move your feet!”
