Horoscope: Check astrological predictions for 18 August 2025

TAURUS HOROSCOPE (Apr. 21 – May 21): buried your head in the sand

There seems to be some sort of muddle, possibly caused by the Moon’s relationship to other significant, if confused, planets. You may either postpone important engagements or, alternatively, approach them with considerably more determination than usual.

GEMINI HOROSCOPE (May 22 – June 21): controversial tongue may be stilled

In spite of your open and chatty reputation, you are about to enter a more secretive phase, one when peace, quiet and seclusion will be of increasing importance to your general well-being. Only when you have shared your plans with friends will you see whether they are ever likely to come to fruition.

CANCER HOROSCOPE (June 22 – July 23): there could be a cost – emotional as well as financial

In many ways you are dealing with the legacy of the past. Yet, although it’s inevitable that you should feel nostalgia for what has been, you would be advised to get on with planning the future. I know you’re concerned about losing your roots, but you needn’t be.

LEO HOROSCOPE (July 24 – Aug. 23): will soon be rescheduled

You are being pulled in two directions. But which way should you jump? As far as anyone can see, you have done an extremely good job of standing your ground and, for that, you deserve full respect. Do yourself a favour and sort out a cash question sooner rather than later.

VIRGO HOROSCOPE (Aug. 24 – Sept. 23): now that the air seems to have been cleared

You should now be back on form and determined to alter the pattern of your life. Lunar aspects may be signalling stress but that could be a good thing – inspiring you to exceed your previous best. There is someone who is waiting for you to get in touch with them and, when you do, your life could change.

LIBRA HOROSCOPE (Sept. 24 – Oct. 23): everyone will be much happier

It could be an extravagant day, and the only reason for caution could be if you are spending other people’s money. In love you need physical affection and reassurance and, at work, you should be considering promotion. It’s about time that your true talents were appreciated.

SCORPIO HOROSCOPE (Oct. 24 – Nov. 22): it’s all part of life’s rich tapestry

Now you really are heading for a pleasant romantic period. Relations with children and younger family members are set to improve and cultural pursuits are likely to take up more of your time. But when it comes to social arrangements, I suspect you’ll be bogged down in the details.

SAGITTARIUS HOROSCOPE (Nov. 23 – Dec. 22): everything you do is totally above board

A whole host of planets passing through challenging regions of your chart means that you must let other people seize the initiative. This is not obligatory, but if you try to take the lead yourself it may rebound on you, perhaps because you’ll overlook certain fundamental details.

CAPRICORN HOROSCOPE (Dec. 23 – Jan. 20): it is time to mend fences and build bridges

The odds may be stacked against you today. Yet do not despair – all is not lost. It may be time for one of those clever tactical retreats that results in your position being stronger than ever. Your strength lies in your ability to construct firm foundations.

AQUARIUS HOROSCOPE (Jan. 21 – Feb. 19): a new world will open up before you

There are periods when you need to spend a little more time at home or dealing with important family issues. This is one of them, so hopefully relations will play ball. In love, the lesson is that relationships need to be worked at – no effort should be spared!

PISCES HOROSCOPE (Feb. 20 – Mar 20): come on, Pisces – own up to being a dreamer

There is not long to go before emotional secrets are brought to a head. It will be a great relief all round when what was once unspeakable can be discussed in an atmosphere of happiness and harmony. And I have a feeling that you are just the person to do it.
