Horoscopes today – Russell Grant’s star sign forecast for August 7

Aries

You have a strong feeling that new projects begun today are likely to be successful. You know too that this achievement will open doors to greater possibilities. You have found a challenge that excites you and fills you with optimism. A project you are leading will receive lots of positive attention.

Taurus

You feel positive and excited for what the day might bring. There is so much to be happy about. Getting up early means you can be productive and feel great right from the start of the day. Later, there will be some annoyances at work or home that will keep you on your toes.

Gemini

If you are struggling to test your ideas, ask what other people think of them. It can be difficult to be objective when you are deeply invested in a project. To make certain you are on the right track, you need to get the views of your friends’ and colleagues. Try to see your progress from different perspectives.

Cancer

You don’t feel confident enough to deal with certain issues. You wish people would pay attention to what you are saying. You are expressing your feelings but no one seems to be listening. You may have to raise your voice to get your point across.

Leo

It might not seem like the right time to do so but you feel you have to take up an offer that can contribute to your success. Although progress will be slow, the impact will be long-lasting. Stay alert and you will pick up some valuable information.

Virgo

You’re holding on tightly to beliefs that you’ve taken as fact without examining their truth and this is unusual for you. Pay attention to those who are pointing out that you are being unreceptive to new ideas and arguments. A little flexibility could go a long way.

Libra

Exciting plans are in the works for a wedding or family celebration. In addition to this you are organising a glamorous business trip. Your mind is brimming with fantastic ideas and you are determined to turn these into reality. Friends will like your suggestions and family provide you with all the support you need.

Scorpio

Challenges you are facing at work or in a group can make you question your future. If things remain the same it’s hard to imagine staying in this situation for much longer. It’s unlikely you will make a decision today. Clear your mind of negativity by joining friends at a fun social event later on.

Sagittarius

The morning will feel a bit chaotic when activities, plans and people are unpredictable. Things will start to smooth out later on, even though the occasional problem will pop up to slow you down. Stay positive even when challenges keep coming your way.

Capricorn

A colleague you are working closely with does not share the same level of dedication towards a project as you. Keep in mind that things don’t always go as planned or expected. Some people may not follow through on their promises. Don’t bother wasting your time listening to their feeble excuses.

Aquarius

You’re looking to gain new experiences. Consider making a lateral move in your current employment or even exploring a complete career change. It would be best not to rely on a senior colleague who barely knows you for a job reference. Instead, approach someone who is familiar with your capabilities and can provide a strong recommendation.

Pisces

Getting caught in the middle of a disagreement between neighbours or colleagues will be emotionally draining. Once you’ve chosen a side, you need to stick to your decision and refuse to allow persuasive people to sway you. Choose something relaxing to do at the end of the day.
