Your Daily HomeScope for August 22, 2024

August 22, 2024



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

Your online sale may be going slower than you had anticipated. Who knew that your vintage kitchenware wouldn't sell like hotcakes? Take the price down a notch and repost your goodies -- you'll surely snare the right customer soon.

Taurus

Have a sensual experience with the fabrics around your house today, enjoying the feel of velvet on the throw pillows, or the silky texture of your brand new curtains. Allow your hands be your guide, exploring the surfaces of your home today.

Gemini

A big storm may be approaching and you don't want to be caught off-guard. For optimal happiness in the house, do a routine check-up, making sure that the storm windows are in good shape and, most importantly, that the pantry is stocked.

Cancer

Rather than having the usual crew over for dinner, come up with a crazy idea for your dinner party. Seeing your friends arrive in costume, serving up unusual dishes, or playing scarcely heard music could be just the twist that your circle of friends need.

Leo

With guests staying at your house this week, you may want to do something a little special. Go ahead and splurge on the eight-dollar French milled soap and don't forget to fill a vase with fresh lavender for the nightstand.

Virgo

Think about compatible foods today as you prepare your midday snack. Pairing apples with a good cheese, or a cup of milk thistle tea with toast, will keep you focused on the symmetrical relationship of all the lovely things in your home.

Libra

More than usual, heavy foods will have quite a heavy effect on you today, turning a high-energy day into a sluggish quest for a nap. Avoid heavy creams and cheeses today and instead stick to raw foods and whole grains.

Scorpio

After coming home from a friend's house today your creativity may be on fire. Have your friend show you the tricks of her new craft and try your hand at creating. Embark on the project before you lose the passion of your interest.

Sagittarius

A mundane yet creative activity will keep your mind in the right place today -- both focused and free to think of other things. Stringing beads onto a necklace would be the perfect micro-level job to allow your mind to think on the macro-level.

Capricorn

In so many ways you provide for your household, but above all, you do an excellent job making sure the fridge is full. As your housemates devour a healthy snack this afternoon, pat yourself on the back for this silent means of caretaking.

Aquarius

Though you don't get paid to do the job, you may feel like an electrical engineer this evening, feeling around a fuse box in the dark. Your confidence in this situation is what will make the job easier than it seems.

Pisces

A recent streak of eating out and TV dinners will make you desperately want to make a good meal this evening. Working with fresh vegetables and meats will remind you how good it feels to be in touch with your food.
