For ages you’ve sidestepped potentially difficult matters simply because you knew how badly certain individuals would react. While that made sense in the past, the delicate feelings of these individuals are beginning to have far too much influence on what you say and do. It’s time to be more forthright, if not downright blunt.

Intriguing as the ideas you’re discussing may be, others seem to assume the fact you’ve asked questions means you’re ready to commit. Waste no time correcting them but, instead, explore further. The problem is simple - you’re short of details. What’s more, with the foundation on which these would be based shifting, there’ll be lots to discover and discuss, now and in the weeks to come.

You crave stability yet, thrive on challenging projects, especially those that turn intriguing ideas into plans that, then, add to your life. Yet recently there’s been frustratingly little progress. August’s events, some long-awaited, others unanticipated, make up for lost time. Tempting as it is to turn these into solid plans, ensure arrangements are flexible. That way, you can explore ongoing, and often thrilling, but unexpected ideas or offers. Decisions? Wait until the beginning of September. After that, your shifting priorities will finally be clear.

As an Aquarius, you've an amazing knack for spotting and taking advantage of exciting new ideas. Not only is that the case now, what and who is coming your way will be just the beginning of a cycle of timely, if occasionally confusing breakthroughs. For now, focus on exploration. Lasting arrangements are important, but they can, and should, wait until you're better informed. Be patient. Achieving that clarity could require considerable patience.
