Virgo

August 24 to September 23

Start the day as you mean to carry on Virgo, as there could be a lot of things to busy yourself with. If you’re held up by other matters or people, then try not to let them commandeer too much of your time, as something important might not wait. Make a move while you feel the urge, as the enthusiasm may fade, and any plans be forgotten. Don’t wait too long, just do it!

An offer might show up that requires a lot of work, but could also make you a lot of money. Think carefully about this and look into it further before you commit.
