VIRGO August 24-September 23 If you have been feeling unfocused and not quite your normal Virgoan self, the new moon in your own sign will surely help you to realign with your resourceful side. Keep in mind that you are now creating a long-lasting foundation for your year ahead. A creative project or romance will shine brightly the first week of September and will hold great promise in the coming months. However, you will need to state your own needs first and make sure they are heard this time. Advice for parents of a Virgo child Virgos are the perfectionists of the zodiac. Hard-working, efficient and conscientious, your wee Virgo analyzes things great and small with a very discerning eye. Her natural proclivity toward detail and proficiency can make her a bit of a worrywart. Help her to understand that sometimes things can’t be perfect and teach her to let things go. |
Groovy traits of a Virgo: Gentle with the helpless, sympathetic, humane, organized, dedicated to one's job, creative, witty, charming, physically sensual and emotionally warm. Not-so-Groovy traits of a Virgo: Scathing critic of the lazy, cranky, irritable, dogmatic, untidy, tends to be a hypochondriac, nervous, worried, prudish, eccentric, and can be overdemanding. |

PISCES February 20-March 20 A busy month is in store, but it is important that you keep your focus on one thing at a time.

His in-the-moment mojo and ability to meet life’s challenges head-on will make for a world-class pioneer in all areas of his life.

The Mercury retrograde will help you to cover old ground with a partner and clear up any misunderstandings. A fresh start is imminent. Advice for the parents of a Cancer child Cancers are emotional and sensitive people who thrive when nurturing others. You’ll notice this proclivity very early on in your child.
