Your August Horoscope for Taurus

You have lots happening in August—possibilities for an impressive advancement in your career, home and family news, time to travel, and a chance for moments of breathtaking romance. This all adds up to a jam-packed month with plenty to look forward to.

August starts with an emphasis on home and family. The new moon of July 28 in Leo, 6 degrees, will open opportunities to move, renovate, make repairs, prepare for a redesign to your décor, and more. If you don’t like your present home but are worried that you can’t afford anything else on the market, you may have better luck in August. Browse Internet sites, and you may see some spaces to get a feel for rents and real estate.

I remember when I was about 21, just out of college, and at my first job at Time-Life. Was I concerned about the cost of housing? I wanted to move but assumed that would not be possible because like most people, I was not being paid much at my first job. I will never forget what my friend, Violetta, said to me about my housing dilemmas one day.
