August 6th to August 12th 2007
MONDAY August 6 Back to the future 
The only way to see what the future holds is to fully understand what the past contained! That's why astrologers also have to be historians. Whenever a significant astrological alignment occurs, we begin by looking back to see what happened the last time. Then, we extrapolate. Hence my suggestion that you look back to August 1999 if you want to identify the issues that are now arising in your love life and your financial situation. If you find yourself repeating a difficult process or drama, here's a real chance to ensure that this time, there's a much better outcome.

TUESDAY August 7 Jupiter turning direct 
This week, as Jupiter finally turns 'direct', you'll be able to make progress with a plan or idea that has been 'on hold' since April. Opportunities for expansion are not necessarily blocked while Jupiter is retrograde but we have to aim carefully if we want to hit our targets. Once Jupiter is moving in the 'right' direction once more, it gets harder to stop a process of change than to start one! As new possibilities reveal themselves over the coming days, focus on your original goal and you'll be able to put the cosmic climate to very good use.

WEDNESDAY August 8 I don't want to repeat my terrible mistake 
Dear Jonathan,In August 1999 I made the worst mistake of my life, for which I am still paying. I hope this August isn't going to throw up an opportunity to make such a terrible mistake again. What do you mean, 'I need to look back to that time'? I am worried. I do not wish to repeat any such events. Joanne

THURSDAY August 9 It's a dogs life 
Hi Jonathan,I recently watched a Labrador training to become a guide dog. This creature eagerly sacrificing its life to help others, made me wonder if the human experience really is the best opportunity for spiritual development? Maybe people become dogs in the next life if they have acquired enough love and selflessness in this one. Sue

FRIDAY August 10 Cinderella's glass slip-up? 
In a recent horoscope you talked about Cinderella and her 'glass' slipper � suggesting that 'verre' had been substituted for 'vert', meaning green. There is another theory that she wore � a 'pantoufle en vair', a slipper made from fur. This, to me, sounds more likely as humans wearing animal skin was a sign of shamanic transformation. Just thought you'd like to know.
Graham
Dear Graham,
I asked my fairy godmother about this... and she replied, 'What about the pumpkin and the white mice? Unless they, too are shamanic symbols, you can drive a coach and horses through that argument!'

SATURDAY August 11 Venus - the eight year cycle 
Venus follows an eight-year cycle. Back in 1999 it became retrograde at the end of July and remained that way till early September. During that time it slipped slowly backwards out of Virgo and into Leo. If you really want to understand what's going on in the world right now, cast your mind back to what was happening then. Think about the dramas that were being played out in your life, in the lives of those around you, and on the world stage. Now look carefully at what's going on. The details may be different, but in the sentiment and spirit of many a situation, there is an uncanny echo.
