Your Weekly Work Horoscope for The Week of August 12, 2024. Discover your Weekly Work Horoscope for each zodiac sign here.
Aries
You’re particularly motivated to get things crossed off your to-do list. Be first in any situation: first to call the meeting to an end, first to propose a client visit, first to discover the very simple solution under everyone’s nose. During the middle of the day on Wednesday, you shift to an ever higher setting and the second half of the week is a blur of accomplishment. In sum, you make the most out of what you have to work with, enlisting the help of coworkers in your own projects and managing relations with the boss. Slow down a bit on Friday. Ease into the weekend.
Taurus
The rampant consumerism that surrounds the coming days, have you thinking a lot about the difference between things that seem valuable and things that actually are. This is not a bad thing to be pondering at work. Financial matters figure on Monday and Tuesday, and you deal with them like a philosopher. No one else does until Wednesday when a shift occurs and a light bulb goes on. Suddenly everyone is with you. On Thursday and Friday, you’re preoccupied with travel plans, but you end the week feeling grounded and happy about the people you work beside.
Gemini
The cold, hard truth is that you don’t know as much as you think you know on Monday and Tuesday, so taking the “I know everything” approach would just end in embarrassment. There’s strength is admitting that you don’t have all the answers. Plus, it allows a partner to step up and feel like they can contribute. That said, for whatever reason, trouble arises between you and a business partner midweek. Frustratingly, it’s unclear what the problem is. It’s possible that it has nothing to do with you. Thursday and Friday are confusing.
Cancer
It’s hard to concentrate at work this week, which makes perfect sense. The coming days loom over you, with all they bring in the way of stress, social obligations, and family pressures. Everyone else is in the same boat as you, but everyone deals with it in their own way. Motivating yourself is impossible on Tuesday. Misunderstandings abound, especially on Wednesday and Thursday. Friday has the potential to be particularly dreary, but if you take matters into your own hands, say, with an impromptu office party and confetti from the paper shredder, you can turn it around.
Leo
A healthy detachment and an eagle eye for detail make you an amazing executive decision-maker at the beginning of the week, and some recognition is sure to follow. Around Wednesday, though, a strategy suddenly doesn’t quite fit, but that doesn’t mean you have to start from scratch. Reevaluate and salvage the best parts of your plan. You should be seeing some positive outcomes by Friday, and you’ve got the energy (and then some) necessary to promote your agenda. Money issues could pop up this weekend, whether business or personal.

Virgo
You wish this week would be over already. But isn’t there joy in anticipation? Let the buildup be a pleasure to you. Think of the week like a very long, pleasant walk toward something you’re looking forward to. Go with the flow. And along the way, get some tasks done. Several hours of tedious work come your way on Tuesday afternoon or Wednesday morning. Don’t gripe. Late in the day on Wednesday, or possibly Thursday, you’re well rewarded for your efforts. On Friday, if you’re single, you could meet someone through work. An unexpected but not unwelcome surprise.
Libra
The first half of the workweek you’re very capable of talking idealistically and at length about the future of the business and, perhaps, of businesses in general. You’re brimming with big ideas. If someone asks you what you think and it seems like they really want to know, put your feet up on your desk and explain. (Unless you’re not wearing something conducive to putting your feet on your desk, in which case you should strike some other casual but confident pose.) During the second half of the workweek, by contrast, you’re in no mood for oration, and really no mood even for work. Other matters takes precedence.
Scorpio
You’ve got a hall pass of sorts on Monday as events conspire to allow you to chart your own course. If there’s work you’ve been putting off, you can get it done or figure out a new direction. Things start to heat up dramatically midweek, and you could find yourself enmeshed in small-scale office warfare or getting piles of new work. Thursday, you could see a new way to improve profits or morale, but look at it very carefully before implementing it. There are likely to be unforeseen consequences if you don’t give it a thorough examination.
Sagittarius
This is a fantastic week for you at work. On Monday or Tuesday, it dawns on you in a meeting that everyone is waiting to see what you’re going to say. This gives you a blast of confidence. When you’re happy, you like to try to make other people happy, too. On Wednesday, surprise someone with a compliment or by doing some of their work for them without telling them in advance. The end of the workweek is slightly less brilliant than the beginning. You might be worried about money, but you still leave the office with a grin on your face.
Capricorn
You have a tremendous amount of work to get done this week. Do you panic? Do you run around waving your hands in the air and shrieking? Of course not. You keep your head down and do your best. You’ve done it before, and it always works out in the end. It may even start to work out by Wednesday afternoon. By Thursday, you’re amazed by what you’ve been able to pull off. On Friday, a supervisor calls specific attention to all of your accomplishments in front of everyone else. You walk into the weekend the envy of all.
Aquarius
Your mind is buzzing at the start of the week. You’re absorbing information like a sponge and feeling inspired to speak your mind and share your ideas. However, all this activity in your mind could become anxiety if you have no direction. Fight restlessness by keeping busy. You might run into some money problems midweek. It’s time to reassess your finances and learn from any mistakes. Luckily, you won’t be feeling overwhelmed for too long. If you’ve been uninspired or bored with your projects, it’s time to harness your creative potential. Dig deep and discover what you really want to convey with your work.
Pisces
Monday is perfect for starting a new project. Permission will come quickly, and all the elements will be exactly where you need them to be. Rise above it all midweek and really look at where things are going. You’ll have new insights that lead to smart decisions. The last couple of days in the week will zip past without you even realizing. You’ll be amazed at the end of Friday when you see how much you’ve done, especially if you stick to your schedule. The weekend is yours. If you spend it on your career, you’ll see huge benefits.
