You settled into a bit of a homebody routine this summer and August is time to shake it up. Make the most of your last weeks of summer by heading to the lake or getting together with your pals to throw a frisbee around. Live it up while you still can, homework and math tests are just around the corner! By September, that mysterious grey cloud that's been following you around finally disappears! Take a little time to spread the joy by picking up the pizza tab for your BFF or lending your fave t-shirt to your sis. Your good karma will be in overdrive. You're on a creative kick in October. Use these talents to redecorate your room, make Halloween costumes for your friends and tackle your homework. You'll surprise yourself with how creative you are. As November begins, you get all klutzy for some reason. Your parents are practically ready to wrap you in bubble wrap! Just take a deep breath and calm down. If you take a minute to think about what's bothering you, you'll realize it's not a big deal at all. Now go sweep up that plate you just broke and get back to being your usual self. December finds you scrambling to get your act in gear before the new year. Oops, you've been goofing off a bit on schoolwork. Be prepared to hear "I told you so" from your folks.

The start of September will have you feeling misty eyed that a summer romance didn't pan out the way you hoped. But you'll barely remember that when you see an old friend in a whole new light. Take your time trying to turn this pal into your new significant other and your patience will be rewarded.

By mid-August you're ready to chill out, hang with your gang and put together your new wardrobe. Keep an eye out for a new and improved version of a guy you knew from last year when you get back to school. There is romance heading your way. In September, though, be sure to take time to enjoy your friends, parties and maybe even some quality time with your sibs before you go hunting for true love.

You've almost made it to the finish line - don't give up now!

Cancer

You and your BFF were attached at the hip this summer and by mid August it's actually starting to get on your nerves a bit. There's need to let her know, just make some excuse to take a few days off. That's all that is needed to get things back to happy. In September, you slide into slackerville by mid-month. Hey life is more interesting than reruns! Get off the couch and get into a new activity.

Leo

Your summer may have been a bit of an emotional roller coaster ride but by the end of August everything falls into place. Whew, it was worth the wait!

This summer you discovered that you have a serious knack for something you'd never tried before. Don't let your newfound talents go to waste now that it's back to school season. In August figure out which club or team you're going to try out for at school, or round up some like minded friends to practice with you. As September begins, things are hectic. Don't be afraid to lean on your friends, that's what they are for. Join the swim team or dance squad to keep busy until things blow over at home.

It's better to be happy and alone than to be stuck with someone you don't really like. In November, you may notice that your friends have been keeping their distance lately.

In December, you are getting kinda woried, since your significant other - your BFF if you're single - has been acting funny around you.

Just do it before the holidays!

They'll chill out soon enough. In the meantime, try thinking about something other than your own problems. This is a great time of year to volunteer at a homeless shelter with your parents or buy a toy for a needy kid. You'll be making a difference and keeping busy at the same time..

You were kind of bummed about so many friends being away this summer. In the end, though, it opened the door for you to reunite with some old pals, meet some new ones and even have a bit of a summer fling! August's stars are predicting travel in your future.

Those gifts aren't going to buy themselves so hit the malls early to avoid disappointing those you care about.

Aquarius

You can't stop smiling in August after you're reunited with someone special. Take some time to catch up before you both head back to class. There's nothing like a day of bonding at an amusement park to get your relationship back on course. At the start of September, you feel a little overwhelmed by everything new at school. Chill out, everyone feels like that right now but in a few weeks you'll feel right at home. You may even feel up to tutoring the new kid in geometry. Break out of your shell in October and try to meet new people. You won't meet anyone vegging on the couch so why not sign up for a karate class or try out for your school's soccer team? You'll be over your social slump before you know it. You've been oblivious to a hottie who's totally throwing themself at you. November's stars say, "Wake up!" This could be the relationship you've been waiting for. Next time they try to chat with you, try saying something. You'll be amazed how much easier the conversation flows when both peeps are actually talking. December is a bit stressy, what with the holidays and all that jazz. The key to surviving is to pace yourself. You'll have way more fun if you just mellow out.

Pisces

That summer romance doesn't seem to be working out the way you wanted it to, but don't let that ruin your fun in August. Chalk it up as a lesson learned - you'll know better next time. In September, you're barely back in the swing of school and you're already crushing on the cutie in homeroom! As well as that kid in math class... and that drop-dead gorgeous guy whose locker is a few doors down. Be careful with multiple crushes 'cause someone could get hurt. October's stars look awfully sweet for Pisces. That could mean you get to indulge your sweet tooth by eating plenty of yummy Halloween treats, or meet a friendly cutie in one of your classes. Only time will tell! In November, your attention will be on your schoolwork. A heavy workload might make you feel wiped out - be smart and make a chart to manage your time, or ask your teachers for help if you need it. A tutor isn't out of the question. Put in lots of effort and it will all pay off in December, when you're slated to have great time with friends and a very rewarding Christmas! Pay it forward by making homemade gifts for friends and family, that show them how much you care.
