Here's Your Horoscope For Friday, August 16
Don't lose hope. This isn't a dead end.
Today’s astrological alignments force you to focus on what you can control. As Mars progresses through speedy Gemini, Jupiter answers to Saturn retrograde, the planet of restriction and delays.
Your progress is stalled, but you’re strong enough to overcome any barrier. When your faith and growth are tested, you will learn which goals and ideas are most important to you.
A constructive flow between the moon in resilient Capricorn and love planet Venus in Virgo builds in the afternoon. Harness this dutiful energy to guard and protect your loved ones. Master the art of supporting others without neglecting your needs.
A serious review of your boundaries will leave you feeling emotionally mature tonight when the moon links up with Saturn retrograde.
