in august, you may have the urge to simply sit back and enjoy the fruits of your labours. your relaxed and buoyant nature may attract opportunity like a magnet, however, so don't rest on your comfy laurels. you can use lucky breaks to good advantage in your career or investments in the second half of the month. in october, wishful thinking hits a high note so any new romance or investment could distract you. steer clear of loans, borrowing, job changes or major purchases.
