You could be so, so like a cat on a hot tin roof. It seems likely that someone's got under your skin. With passions inflamed, an older person's caution that you slow down might not be what you want to hear at all. On the other hand, it could be this very person who's causing you to rush around like a mad thing trying to ensure that everything as is 'right' as possible in their world.

Together with someone who appears to know all the answers, you could now be reaching for the sky. Your inner voice however could be telling you that not all practicalities have been resolved. Though excited about developments – and particularly if that involves travel or property, it might be all too tempting to take on more than you can really handle. Taking time to make detailed analysis of the full physical and financial costs involved might be wise.

Having discovered that colleagues need more time to do things your way, you might now need to tell someone 'higher up' that a deadline might not be workable. A Health and Safety issue could give you cause for concern too – again potentially delaying a project. At home, you may need to make a list of essential ingredients that need to be re-stocked soon.
Week: Sunday 23rd August – Saturday 29th August 2026
Friday's Lunar Eclipse is in your opposite sign. That event occurs just a day after the Sun and Mercury fuse in your sign. So it seems likely that you will reach a turning point. It may be that you are acutely aware of those you can and those you cannot work with. Those of your sign have a wonderful gift of seeing what could be improved. Your inpit is essential to any team. Yet that team must recognise and appreciate your efforts. It may be that you've felt overlooked. Now may be the time to walk away. You could be tempted to do so by an offer that would require you to work behind the scenes and plan a schedule that would be of value to everyone and that could be implemented soon after the September equinox. Not only might this excite your brain cells, it might also be something that revives a passion that's long been dormant.
