Here is your astrological forecast for Monday, August 25, courtesy of your resident scopetress Jen Bem.

How will the week start for you?

Aries 03.21-04.19
Spending a little money on a treat or something you really need isn’t going to break your bank. In fact, it will make you feel more accomplished about the work you’ve been doing and motivate you to do more.

Taurus 04.20-05.20
Watching daytime TV is fun, but when the drama hits home those elaborate plots won’t seem so amusing. All you can do is stay calm and be patient, even if you think it’s wrong for your sister to date your brother’s ex.

Gemini 05.21-06.21
An afternoon nap is the best medicine for headaches, backaches and that case of the grumpies you’re famous for.

Cancer 06.22-07.21
Your boss or friend is going to ask for a huge favor today, one you know will take a lot of your time and effort. You’ll have to make the hard choice between helping out or saving your sanity.

Leo 07.22-08.22
Your aggressive nature shows on a project you’re working on today, even if it’s small. You want to do things your way, and there is no room for compromise.

Virgo 08.23-09.22
Pamper yourself to get ready for the week ahead. Treat yourself to a trip to the salon or a massage. You have some busy days coming and you want to be prepared.

Libra 09.23-10.22
It feels as if everything you say is coming out wrong. This isn’t the case, but you could reword some comments, especially those geared toward your significant other.

Scorpio 10.23-11.21
Your adventurous side is coming out. You’re in the mood for something rough and tumble, maybe even a little dangerous. Start planning now for a hiking trip, which should quench your thirst for a challenge.

Sagittarius 11.22-12.21
It feels as if the world is closing in on you today. Everything seems to be going wrong, from your favorite jeans being too tight to forgetting an important file for work. Go home and go to bed; it will all be better tomorrow.

Capricorn 12.22-01.19
Keep an open mind when someone tries to show you a new way of doing one of your routine tasks. Shocker — she actually might know a better way than yours to get things done.

Aquarius 01.20-02.18
Treat yourself to something sugary today. A little splurge never hurt anyone, and it will actually put you in a better mood.

Pisces 02.19-03.20
Your ego is overflowing today. Your co-workers and friends are wondering where their modest little pisces went. It’s cool to have confidence, but telling everyone how hot you are is not only overdone, it’s obnoxious.
