Astrology of Monday, August 12

That big old lumbering gas giant of a planet Jupiter is stopping in its tracks and going direct today. Why is that important? Jupiter brings you new opportunities and these bending times are always significant - even more so if you have personal points or planets involved. As Jupiter starts to go toward a very harmonious trine with the Sun and Venus in sunny Leo, forward action takes place. Been cherishing a dream involving faith, optimism, funds and the good will of others? The winds of heaven are with you in making your dream reality! Nothing less than transformation are at stake - you are bored with the status quo and ready to change it. You're beginning to want to roar like a lion, but be careful not to set forces of retribution against you. Be free, but a little diplomatic, too.
