Your Daily HomeScope for August 29, 2023

August 29, 2023



If home is where the heart is, why shouldn’t it follow the same stars that we do? Our relationships with our homes are sacred, and like most, could use a bit of counseling here and there. Tap on your sun sign and start making your house more of a home today!

Aries

Watch your bottom line and seek lasting value as you meet your wants and needs today. Music via cell phone or music via MP3 player? The choice is yours. At least you get to keep the music, unlike ringtones that are lost when you buy a new phone.

Taurus

Okay, you have decided that an addition will not overprice your home for its neighborhood, and best of all, you will finally have the home office space you need to spread out your weekly projects in. These two facts lead to a flurry of pitching and tossing things you don't need.

Gemini

The attention you pay to the shades of colors in bloom will increase your knowledge and sense of harmony when decorating your new home. This is definitely a time you should please your highest self.

Cancer

You can look at the world in a new way if you take a sketch pad and pencil, give an intense look as one small thing, like the bud of an orchid or the leaf of a Staghorn Fern and draw it not bigger than two by two inches.

Leo

You don't always need the bulk and storage space of a laptop case, after all, a paperless office is your goal. Like your selection of purses, you'll find a laptop sleeve to suit your style and protect your investment -- brightly colored neoprene or leather, with arm or shoulder straps.

Virgo

You counted on shelling out money for utility deposits but not on the time delays for setting them up. If you check into a nearby hotel for a few days, explain your situation and do not be afraid to ask for a neighborhood discount. Hints of friends and family coming to visit later in the year may help your cause.

Libra

Give some thought to your expenses versus expected income as you take your office to the air and work via broadband on that long airplane flight. You may actually need the rest instead. But that's up to your pocketbook.

Scorpio

Open floor space or rooms that close off -- the choice is yours. A great space works well for crafters and people who enjoy large family gatherings. Be willing to discuss and compromise with your partner.

Sagittarius

Time is of the essence in your here-again-gone-again life, but you do make time for serious meals. Wide egg noodles, chopped broccoli, prepared Alfredo sauce, and boned, drained, flaked pink salmon combine to make a good meal. Liven it up with pesto sauce and sun-dried tomatoes for a one-dish meal with an international flavor.

Capricorn

Learn to let go of old flames. Reaching out to anyone who does not want to hear from you is crossing the personal boundary line. Surfing social networking sites is cool, looking for the person through family or other friends crosses over into creepiness.

Aquarius

Choose a new craft project that will ultimately enhance your perception of the world around you. Flower arranging helps you note color schemes in pictures and nature.

Pisces

Get back in touch with your own inner child by taking a friend's children on an outing for the day. Designing a beautiful bedroom for a child is less important than creating a space for creative play and a refuge from the adult world.
