You may be torn between seeking advice, guidance, and assistance about a venture you are beginning from one of two sources early this month, Aquarius. One individual will have an authoritative air and some very good connections, while the other will have actual experience in what you want to do. You are encouraged to choose the one with practical experience, because this person will probably be far more helpful in advancing your plans.

By the second week of August, be careful not to put too much trust in a neighbour, a co-worker, or someone else who seems quite nice and harmless on the surface. They may need something from you, but they may disguise it as simple camaraderie. Stay aware.

By the third week of the month, a lucrative offer or deal may come up that you will want to become involved in. Before you do, make sure you have as much information on the situation as you can find, because your knowledge will count in the decision-making process. This could turn out to be a really lucky break for you, so play your hand very carefully and don't make any decisions without running them past someone who has expertise.

By the final week of August, you may have the choice to get involved in a business, a purchase, or a money matter - and you may have two options. One person might promise you more, but the other will have values that better align with your own, and you are encouraged to go with the latter. The last two or three days of August could turn out to be very busy, but a whole lot of fun if you decide to leave your worries behind for a few days.
