Penny Thornton Month Ahead* horoscopes for the month starting: 1st August 2008

1st August 2008 - 31st August 2008

There's nothing ordinary about August's planetary alignments: they are extra-ordinary. The month opens on a total solar eclipse (which you will be able to see if you live in Canada, Greenland, Russia, Mongolia or China) and ends on a crescendo of Uranus and Pluto aspects – out with the old and in with the new. All eclipses signal key world events, although it must be remembered that the time-line of an eclipse spans six weeks at least on either side of the date in question. Each week sports a powerful astro-scape – with the week of the 11th emerging as the most highly charged - which means we need to be flexible with our plans and tolerant when circumstances beyond our control interfere with them. Expect some record-breaking events at the Beijing Olympics, leadership crises, company collapses and some spectacular displays from Nature.
