And then, once in a while, right in the middle of an ordinary life, love gives us a fairy tale. And so it will be with you this August.

See, what relieves all of this obsession about your new life ahead - and which direction to go in - is your ruler, planet of love and beauty Venus, dancing around playfully in your love life.  

You also have in your fifth house of romance and fun: sexy Mars, streamlining Vesta, and brilliant Mercury as of Tuesday, July 27. That's a lot of energy for love!

Love, particularly romantic love, is very good and powerful. Single Taurus: get out there and meet someone. There is so much potential out there, I can't even tell you, and you will attract it. Coupled Taurus: you fall in love all over again with each other!

In terms of other types of love: forgive a friend who has disappointed you. Everyone has a lot of stuff to deal with in their lives right now, and this is all that it's about. Try to understand, and to practice compassion.  

Practice compassion also with professional colleagues, even bosses. You may feel like you are being asked to do too much at the office! But you will succeed where others have failed: if anyone knows how to endure, it is you.  

August does not begin quickly for you, so use the slow time to prepare for the goodies ahead...Just take your own sweet time, I say.

A future life style change is ahead for you and you are at an important crossroads and transition point in your life. Shared - or joining up - resources is forefront. If you are thinking about your home or where you are going to live, then even more so...

Remember: "Let your hook always be cast. In the pool where you least expect it, there will be a fish." -- Ovid. 

Personally, someone who has been giving you so much grief is about to give you contentment instead! Bravo, dear Taurus, for sticking it out. If anyone knows how to endure, it is you.

After mid-month, you'll act on decisions you've been putting off. Fabulous results come when you get back in the saddle and take the reins!

But until then, go easy with your communications, particularly where it concerns family. Don't take too seriously what family members say this month.

When someone flakes out on you in the area of home or property (what are you trying to build anyway, they may say), don't get crazy about it. You are simply NOT to sweat it Taurus. This period soon passes.

If you ever wanted to "go zen" or take up meditation or yoga, this would be the ideal time. This way you won't get nuts if plans are lost or mislaid, people don't show up, or things stop working in your house.

After mid-August, everything goes grandly! In your sixth house you have: wise Saturn; sexy Mars as of Thursday, July 29; your ruler love and beauty planet Venus as of Friday, August 6; and streamlining Vesta as of Friday, August 13.

This is a terrific line up, and promises great blessings to the part of you that Libra rules.

For you, Taurus, that is your sixth house of everyday work and routine. Also, it promises better health and a feeling of wellbeing which you may not have had in some time.

To get into some specifics here...If you begin a new regimen in your home around the new Moon of Monday, August 9, you will start to see the rewards two weeks later in the area of professional colleagues and friends. Do it, Taurus, do it!

To get into more specifics, you will specifically find your luck and fortune in these areas:

Service to others

Work, work, work

Health

Daily routine

Domestic and pet obligations

Keeping a sense of humility

Mutual respect amongst your professional colleagues

All your work relationships, including:

Those in lesser positions than you

What else is happening in your August?

Insecurity stops plaguing your sense of self and how you look and are being received and perceived by others. If you've been waiting for more compliments to come in, more do so after Friday, August 13.

Expect some slight worry to crop up about finances after the weekend of August 14 - 15. You will do best (and succeed!) by behaving like the bough in the wind. 

The bough breaks that does not bend.  

By being flexible, not rigid, and by going with the flow.

Generally, your life is pretty plush - if you really look at it and appreciate it - and you do not have to worry about ending up in the poorhouse.  

This August you push it up several notches. You add to your life and you SO enjoy the results!
