With Mars moving into your opposing sign, Cancer, as August begins, there are likely to be a number of confrontations, either with partners or family members, or more likely with people who you now are forced to deal with professionally. Other people’s behavior at this time can be irrational and emotional. Operating from a position of weakness, they tend to be threatening or give ultimatums.
Whatever the outcome, you hold the high ground morally and ethically, and your professional position is so strong, that you can easily face down confrontations. Don’t underestimate what people are capable of though, so use your diplomatic talents to iron out disagreements, especially around the 24th when you sort things out once and for all.
In your personal life, partnerships actually thrive for most of the month, and an economic boost early in August helps you over a difficult patch. The end of the month brings very constructive developments in partnership, and though the holiday period may be over, this is a great time for expanding your horizons with loved ones, either through cultural experiences or through travel.
