Horoscope Today: August 24, 2024 (2024)

It’s official, Aries! This is the season to step into your boss era and lead like the visionary that you are. Your leadership skills are taking centre-stage right now. No wonder your peers are drawn towards you like bees to honey! Wield your influence to make a difference—to inspire those around you to dream bigger dreams and go after what they once considered impossible. That said, some of you may be thinking about investing in a course of some sort. As always, trust where your inner GPS is leading you towards. If going back to your books feels like a huge investment at this time, start saving up right away.

Cosmic tip: Lead your team towards greatness.

What does faith in motion mean to you and how do you surrender to the mysterious forces, above and below? Something to think about as you sip on your morning elixir, Taurus. Today, the cards are reminding you that surrender is an active practice, one that requires you to do your best and then step back and allow the universe to come through. So, breathe, centre yourself and observe the miracles that are unfolding all around you. Recognise the delays and the detours as a part of the grand plan too as you honour the invitation to get in alignment with your deepest desires—now.

Cosmic tip: It’s time to get in alignment with your deepest desires.

But, is it serving you to imagine the worst case scenario? Is it serving you to repeat the victim narrative, over and over again? This is your cue to hold space for an open and honest conversation. To clarify things with your friend or beloved. Who knows? You may just find an amicable solution in the process *and* discover something you didn’t know about them. That said, you’re also being called to indulge your curious nature as you move through Virgo season. Pay attention to what you’re being called to invest in—perhaps, a course that will enable you to level up in some way. Thinking about researching on a subject close to your heart? Now is an excellent time to do so as well!

Cosmic tip: Don’t assume, ask.

Alright, Cancer, it's time for a little tough love. Have you noticed some of those self-sabotaging habits sneaking back in through the back door? Maybe you’ve been indulging in late-night snacking a bit too much or skipping those morning routines that keep you grounded. It’s all good until it starts messing with your glow-up, right? And let’s not even get started on that toxic ex who’s been lurking around in the background. Retrograde season is playing tricks on you, making you nostalgic for things that were never good for you in the first place. So, resist the urge to go down that road, moon child. Focus on levelling up instead. Your future self will thank you for letting your “head” take the reins.

Cosmic tip: Your future self will thank you for letting your “head” take the reins.

You were born to do this, Leo! You came here to do this! Now is *not* the time to play it small or dull your sparkle. It’s the time to claim the centre-stage, and humbly so! The cosmic weather is holding space for you to address your deep-seated fears. That said, things may be feeling “glitchy” on the interpersonal front, with issues related to communication popping up. Here’s a mantra you want to remember as you move through retrograde season: don’t assume, ask. Besides, you’re all too familiar with the perils of engaging in mental gymnastics.

Cosmic tip: You came here to do this.

It’s time to ditch the blame game, Virgo. Rather than seeing yourself as a silent bystander, recognise that life's unfolding in your favour. Your higher self isn't just a spectator here—it's actively shaping your destiny, guiding you to your core truth. So, why not shift your perspective? Own your role as the master architect of your life. Imagine your conscious mind as the diligent gatekeeper to your deeper thoughts. Watch the narratives you weave and make that profound shift. PS: You're in charge here!

Cosmic tip: Instead of blaming your circ*mstances, recognise your role as the conscious creator of your destiny.

Libra, it’s okay to feel your feelings—grief and pain are part of the journey. But here’s the thing: you don’t have to marinate in your misery. It’s easy to get stuck in the "what could’ve been" mindset, but remember, there’s still so much goodness in your world.Shift your focus to what *is* working in your favour. Who’s supporting you at the moment? What little joys are showing up in your day-to-day adventures? Gratitude is your best tool right now as it will help you shift your energy from “lack” to “plenty”.

Cosmic tip: Feel your emotions, but don’t get stuck there. Focus on what’s working out instead.

Today, it’s all about teamwork. Whether it’s at work or within your close-knit circle, you’re in a prime position to inspire the best in those around you. How, you may ask? By leading with empathy and making everyone feel seen, heard, and valued for exactly who they are. Encourage open dialogue, celebrate everyone’s contributions (and quirks!), and create an environment that feels inclusive. As for freelancers and solopreneurs? The cosmic weather is supporting you to forge connections with powerful collaborators who will help you take your work to the next level.

Cosmic tip: Lead with compassion!

Your disillusionment is understandable, Sagittarius. But, it isn’t a good enough reason for you to give up on your big dream. So, feel your feelings, beautiful. Laugh, cry and scream into the void, if you need to. However, once you’re done, gather your strength, tap into your inner reservoir of wisdom, and make your way back to the battlefield. You know what you are here to do! Trust that you have the help and support you need and that the resources required will always be provided to you. Oh, and one more thing! Your instincts are on point. Trust what they’re telling you at every moment,

Cosmic tip: Give yourself the permission to feel your feelings.

Capricorn, your superpower is “discernment”. The ability to truly understand the motives of other people so you can gauge who you want to sync your forces with in the coming month. Just a reminder: your energy is your currency, beautiful! That said, you are stepping into a period of prosperity. Play your cards right. Coupled Saturnians will find that their relationship is blossoming too. That they’re feeling supported in more ways than they can count. The secret to peace and tranquillity? Learning *not* to sweat the small stuff.

Cosmic tip: The Gods and Goddesses of Plenty promise to pay a visit.

Aquarius, you’re stepping into a time of hope and healing. So take a deep breath and know that the light at the end of the tunnel will reveal itself! Instead of focusing on what’s gone, redirect your energy towards emotional and spiritual well-being. Journal your thoughts, attend a gentle yoga class or practise meditation. Connecting with the element of water—also recommended at the moment! Woodstock recommends: ritualistic bath, a trip to the beach, or even just a walk by the river.

Cosmic tip: Embrace hope, healing, and creativity—let water and art guide you back to yourself.

You’re at a point in your journey where you understand that there’s no substitute for hard work. So, you’re placing the long-term goals at the front and centre of your mission as you move steadily in the direction of the desired destination. At the same time, you’re letting go of your attachment to a specific outcome and replace “fear” with “trust”. You know in your heart of hearts that you came here to thrive, to flourish, to step into the most embodied version of yourself! As such, expanding your queendom/kingdom may also be on the cards for some. Hiring and training new members is an integral part of this process. Interview potential candidates thoroughly but also trust your intuition. We are in the midst of retrograde season after all!

Cosmic tip: Your hard work and dedication will take you places.
