Sagittarius | Hudson Valley Horoscope August 2018

Your ruling planet Jupiter is Direct in Scorpio now, waking you from a dream in which someone who looks just like you stole all your credit cards and went on a mad spending spree, while promising outlandish commitments you couldn’t possibly fulfill. You’re overextended in every possible direction, like Bilbo Baggins, who said of himself after wearing the ring too many times: “I feel thin, sort of stretched, like butter scraped over too much bread.” The wonderful news is that Jupiter enters Sagittarius on November 8, at which time the miracles you await will, at long last appear to rescue you. Until then: Sober up, batten down the hatches, put your house in order, and get ready to party like it’s 2007 again (or 1995, 1983, 1971, or even 1960). Sun in Leo through August 22 and Mercury in Leo all month long, especially after stationing Direct on August 18, supports your Herculean efforts.
