Your Daily HomeScope for August 27, 2024

August 27, 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

A visit from some older relatives will prove to be both entertaining and inspiring. Enjoy spoiling the elders who took care of you so well when they served up specialty dishes and taught you a trick or two about table manners.

Taurus

Though you may not live under your mother's roof anymore, you may still be able to hear her voice echoing down the hallway. As you shake out the rug or clean the cast-iron pan, remember her words of advice, knowing that mother isn't always right, but she usually is.

Gemini

After all of the time that you have put into your yard, you may feel a little possessive when your housemate wants to water the garden. The upkeep is your private pleasure; but find it in yourself to grant him a few nights with the hose now and then.

Cancer

With a new set of house rules, you may feel like you're on the cusp of a new beginning. Bear in mind that a list tacked on to a bulletin board is one thing, but enforcing the change of pace will be quite another.

Leo

Though everyone should love their neighbor, it's sometimes hard to like everyone. Even so, find a way to maintain goodwill -- whether you give a neighbor first pick at a piece of furniture you're selling or invite a particularly difficult person to a gathering.

Virgo

An impending family gathering will have you cleaning corners of your house that you forgot you had. The inside of the cabinets will sparkle, and a stack of new recipes found on the web will be sure to wow even the toughest critic.

Libra

Keep your head down today, especially when working with everyday objects. Try to avoid watching TV while chopping vegetables, and make sure to keep your eye on the log as you chop wood in the yard.

Scorpio

Use your intuitive powers today as you peruse the department store, smelling candles and running your hand over throw pillows. Try to predict what would make your housemate cringe, and avoid buying these items.

Sagittarius

Go in deep this afternoon, figuring out what lives in places you've never dreamt of checking. When you take the cushions off of the couch and put the vacuum nozzle down the creases, you'll be surprised at how much change you'll find.

Capricorn

Something in your house may be bothering you today, though you might not be sure if it's something big or something small. Before you start looking for a new place to live, see if a new set of curtains doesn't have you thinking differently.

Aquarius

As you peruse the photos from your last vacation for the umpteenth time, it might occur to you that the most satisfying way to show them off would be online. Start a web site for your family, allowing loved ones to share in your memories.

Pisces

Though the ground may be too cold for jasmine to grow, it doesn't mean that you can't get started. Mount a trellis on the walls of your yard, setting the stage for these fragrant and tenacious flowers to climb in kinder, warmer times.
