Your Weekly Horoscope: Expect the Unexpected—Uranus Is in Town

August 26 – September 1, 2019

Yeah, you might not want to make plans… This week, with four different aspects to Uranus (planet of change), we’re about to see a lot of new developments and surprises. We’ll see them particularly on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Sunday. While all these aspects will be harmonious, you will only benefit from them if you’re willing to be open minded and think outside-the-box.

Combining with Uranus’s spontaneity, there will also be an emphasis on sign of Virgo. On Thursday, Mercury moves into the earth sign, bringing the number of planets in Virgo to four (Mercury, sun, Mars, and moon).

On Friday, the new moon in Virgo can be an opportunity for a fresh start, especially if routines have fallen by the wayside. If there’s any unhappiness with the way things are, this lunar phase can encourage asking questions and making a few changes.

Finally on Sunday, Venus (planet of love) aligns with Saturn (planet of responsibility), which can make things very businesslike. It should be easier to do one’s duty and stick with responsibilities to others.
