See what the stars have in store for your zodiac sign
We’ve been conditioned to believe that we need somebody outside of ourselves to facilitate our connection with the divine. But you are your own priest and priestess, Sagittarius. You are your own shaman, sorceress, and alchemist. The Ministry of Magic lives within you. Aquarius, separation is seldom easy, but it’s what your soul had to go through in that moment. But you’ve given yourself the space to heal. It’s now time to open yourself to receiving the love you deserve. Leo, life isn’t always rainbows and sunshine. How terribly boring would things be if everything looked picture-perfect all the time! Today, the cards are urging you to say a prayer of gratitude for the minor turbulence too. Know that this pain is teaching you things happiness never will.
Aries Horoscope Today: August 20, 2020
You’re onto something, and the cards love what you have in mind, Aries. It’s time to carpe diem on the weird and wonderful ideas that are coming through. Remember to maintain an air of mystery while you’re at it. Not everybody deserves to have a sneak peek at what lies beyond the veil. Besides, you don’t want the unoriginal ones to rip your idea off before you’ve had the chance to sit down with it. Rams who are working within the structure of an organisation are being reminded that they are indispensable. Have the courage to share your moodboard no matter how bizarre this may seem initially. You never know what your endeavours may lead to.
Cosmic tip: Sit down with the Muse.
Taurus Horoscope Today: August 20, 2020
Daily reminder: the ‘scarcity’ is a human construct. The cards want you to know you are entering into a period of abundance (even if you don’t see the fruits of your labor immediately). So, believe in your dream. Be persistent in your efforts. And don’t settle for anything less than what you deserve. In the realm of relationships, some of you could be struggling with issues related to freedom and expression. Remember, love doesn’t clip your wings, and if it does, you’ve got to ask yourself if it is love at all.
Cosmic tip: You are entering a period of abundance.
Gemini Horoscope Today: August 20, 2020
Our childhood experiences shape us and make us who we are today. The love you received (or didn’t) continues to be a part of your story, one that determines your relationship dynamics with others in your life. Wounds related to your mother could resurface today, making you feel rather vulnerable. But you get to decide whether you want to carry this fragment of you into the future, or free yourself from the burden of your past. Meditation, self-reflection and journaling will help you find the answers you seek, Gemini.
Cosmic tip: Integrate the past wounds.
Cancer Horoscope Today: August 20, 2020
The love we receive (or don’t) as children continues to have an impact on our relationships as adults, and right now your romantic relationships could be bearing the brunt of what happened a lifetime ago. But that doesn’t make your fears invalid, Cancer. Take a moment. Have an open and honest conversation. Understand where the issues are stemming from. It’s time to release the old story and the pain attached with it. Remember, your parents were acting from a space of limitations. They didn’t know better. Maybe it’s time to practice forgiveness.
Cosmic tip: Free yourself from the old story where you were unloved.
Leo Horoscope Today: August 20, 2020
Life isn’t always rainbows and sunshine. How terribly boring would things be if everything looked picture-perfect all the time! Today, the cards are urging you to say a prayer of gratitude for the minor turbulence too. Know that this pain is teaching you things happiness never will, and helping you strip away the false layers that are standing between you and your true self. Some of you could be experiencing ups and downs on the health and wellness front too. In this case, it’s best to reach out to a medical practitioner/healer/shaman you trust.
Cosmic tip: Honour the ebb like you would the flow.
Virgo Horoscope Today: August 20, 2020
The weekend is coming in early this time around. You’re in the mood to stay in your pajamas all day and pore over your favorite book. Some of you may feel inspired to get witchy with your reading list. Herb magick and aromatherapy are some of the practices that will help you connect with yourself *and* Mother Earth on a deeper level. In the words of Canadian-born author and mystic Manly P Hall, “The gates of mystery stand ever ajar, and those who will may pass through into the spacious domicile of spirit.”
Cosmic tip: It’s a coffee, books, and magic kind of day.
Libra Horoscope Today: August 20, 2020
They’re just not that into you, Libra. If they were, what makes you think they wouldn’t be standing outside your door playing a harmonica and singing ballads? Truth of the matter is, you deserve a love that’s over-the-top and dramatic—in the early stages, at least. The cards are urging you to read the signs and let go of what isn’t yours. On the upside, you’ll find that the Muse is close at hand, waiting to be seduced. Become aware of your creative urges. There is something sacred waiting to be born through you.
Cosmic tip: You deserve a love that’s over-the-top.
Scorpio Horoscope Today: August 20, 2020
The truth is, you can’t make sense of everything that’s taking place right now. How terribly boring would life be if you could! Today, the cards are urging you to embrace the myths and the mysteries, and everything in between. The unknown is where the magic is at. Connecting with nature is also going to be a big theme. Take your yoga mat downstairs or spend some time walking barefoot in the grass. You’ll be surprised by the wisdom Gaia shares with you when you are in communion with her.
Cosmic tip: Embrace the myths, the mysteries, and everything in between.
Sagittarius Horoscope Today: August 20, 2020
We’ve been conditioned to believe that we need somebody outside of ourselves to facilitate our connection with the divine. But you are your own priest and priestess. You are your own shaman, sorceress, and alchemist. The Ministry of Magic lives within you. Today, you’re being asked to tap into this hotline and trust the divine messages coming through. Remember, we all have our own ways of fostering this connection. Silence works wonders for some, while movement meditation opens higher portals for others.
Cosmic tip: You have a direct connection with the divine.
Capricorn Horoscope Today: August 20, 2020
Matters of the heart are taking center stage, Capricorn. Your tribe is showing up for you in a whole new way. Allow yourself to receive the love you have so freely been giving to others. You deserve every bit of the goodness you have attracted into your Universe. Some of you may be feeling a spark with somebody in your social circle. But, is this the once-in-a-lifetime connection you have been seeking or merely infatuation? We’ll just have to wait and see.
Cosmic tip: Feel the love.
Aquarius Horoscope Today: August 20, 2020
Parting ways with somebody you love is seldom easy. But you’ve given your heart and soul the space they needed to heal from this loss. It’s time to open yourself to the idea of romance again. The cards want you to know that the love you desire and deserve are not a distant dream. They are available to you in this moment. So take a step into the future knowing that the mysterious forces have got your back!
Cosmic tip: Allow yourself to receive the love you deserve.
Pisces Horoscope Today: August 20, 2020
People are always going to have their opinions. However, you have the option to decide whether or not their opinions get to alter your perception of reality. Stand in your truth and stay committed to the path, Pisces, knowing that victory will ultimately be yours. There will be moments when you will be tempted to swoop down to their level and retaliate. Call upon your higher self at times like this. Keeping your karmic slate clear will help you align with the frequency of joy and abundance.
Cosmic tip: Stand in your truth and stay committed to your path.
