Today's horoscope for August 29 as Capricorn is ready for a change of scenery

It’s Friday, and one star sign should be clear about their feelings today, while another will be trusted with some confidential information.

There are 12 zodiac signs - Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, and Pisces - and the horoscopes for each can give you the lowdown on what your future holds, be it in work, your love life, your friends and family or more.

These daily forecasts have been compiled by astrologer Russell Grant, who has been reading star signs for over 50 years. From Aries through to Pisces, here's what today could bring for your horoscope - and what you can do to be prepared.

Aries (Mar 21 - Apr 20)

A job offer for a large company or government agency needs some consideration. If the thought of working for the establishment terrifies you, consider launching your own business. Being self-employed can be tough but it won't feel as stifling. You will perform better when you can think freely without restrictions.

Taurus (Apr 21 - May 21)

Making improvements to your home will require effort and passion. You may invest more than planned in decor and art, but rest assured, these purchases will bring lasting joy. In a few years, you'll be amazed at the prices of some vintage items. You have a talent for choosing pieces that will increase in value.

Gemini (May 22 - June 21)

Steer clear of subjects that upset you. If someone you work with is trying to push their beliefs on you, let them know you're not interested in that discussion. If the problem continues, reach out to your supervisor. You deserve to work without being bothered about personal issues.

Cancer (June 22 - July 23)

In your closest relationships, you need to be clear about your feelings. If someone asks for your views, respond openly. Relying on others to guess your thoughts is futile. When in doubt, trust your instincts. The connection between your mind, body and spirit is strong.

Leo (July 24 - Aug 23)

You have successfully completed a self-improvement program. Acknowledge and celebrate your progress. If you're uncertain about your next steps, take a moment to relax and think it over. Avoid rushing into decisions. Instead, treat yourself for your efforts and achievement.

Virgo (Aug 24 - Sept 23)

A longing to be liked has led you to suppress your true emotions. Even in your closest relationships you are starting to realise that few people truly understand you. Embrace conflict more, particularly regarding creative disagreements. You need to feel you can be yourself with the people you love.

Libra (Sept 24 - Oct 23)

Money is tight and you will admit to having been a little careless with your cash. For a little while, you will need to stick to a strict budget, but it will be worth it in the end. Being able to fall asleep at night without worrying about money is a valuable aim.

Scorpio (Oct 24 - Nov 22)

A small misunderstanding has led to a prolonged conflict. Financial issues are causing problems in relationships. Think about closing a joint account to save your financial and emotional energy. Someone who has been deceiving you will face consequences when they least expect it.

Sagittarius (Nov 23 - Dec 21)

A senior colleague will trust you with some confidential information. Keeping this knowledge to yourself will gain the trust of an influential person. This new connection will provide you with some great opportunities that are likely to improve your quality of life.

Capricorn (Dec 22 - Jan 20)

Travel appeals. Not only are you ready for a change of scenery but you want to break out of routines that have grown monotonous. A brief getaway can provide a new outlook. Visit a place famous for its stunning architecture. Being surrounded by tall, magnificent structures will motivate you to achieve goals you never thought you could.

Aquarius (Jan 21 - Feb 19)

Now is not a good time to take risks. An investment that seems guaranteed may not succeed. Someone isn’t being honest with you. It would be better to secure your funds in the bank for gradual interest growth. A romantic partner has secrets that are causing problems in your relationship.

Pisces (Feb 20 - Mar 20)

Poor working conditions are affecting your morale. Rather than remaining with an employer who neglects employee comfort or safety, seek better opportunities. Finding a role that matches your skills may take time, so be patient. Expect to make a few applications before a job offer comes along.
