Natalie Barr’s dog Madonna gives
a sigh of relief when I connect to her
and tells me she’s happy she finally
gets to have her say around here!
She is very much a character and is
definitely a morning girl. Madonna
thinks the world of Natalie’s children
Lachlan and Hunter. Madonna’s been
with the family since she was a puppy,
and is extraordinarily communicative
to Natalie on so many levels.
Madonna tells me Natalie loves to
sing – but not in front of anyone as
she doesn’t feel she needs to share
her voice. Madonna tells me she often
sees the spirit of other pets long
passed over around the house, and
there are quite a few spirits who also
visit but are very friendly. Madonna
likes her solitude and being very
spoilt is one of the privileges of being
an only fur child. The family are very
structured on many levels and
Natalie runs a tight ship in a gentle
and loving way.OSEE

predicts your destiny
Venus and the sun are gliding for AUGUST 19-25
into your chart’s money sector,
bringing more luck and some
positive new strategies. Under
August’s social rays, you might
even link up with friends. At the
very least, bounce your ideas
around over the weekend.
Two – or more – heads
are better than one.Leo^
JUL 24 – AUG 23Virgo AUG 24 – SEP 23
Here comes the sun! Not only is the spotlight
swinging onto your sign, when Venus sashays
onto centre stage, your charisma switch will
be flipped. As spring approaches, your social
calendar should fill up fast – and your home,
too. Some stylish tableware could come in
handy, along with a personal assistant!Scorpio OCT 24 – NOV 22
As your friendship zone heats up, interesting
people will emerge from the woodwork. Old
friends might appear, or new connections could
develop through a club or group. If you’re looking
for work, start networking. If you’re playing
the dating game, ask a friend to play Cupid.Libra SEP 24 – OCT 23
After a hectic few weeks, it’s time to recharge.
Quiet catch-ups and leisurely walks should be
more your style, along with movies and candlelit
dinners. For couples, a shared project or pastime
might rekindle sparks, while for singles, a
mysterious person could set you swooning.Capricorn DEC 23 – JAN 20
You don’t always have to be strong. As you open
your heart, friends and loved ones will mirror
your honesty. An interest in travel and other
cultures might also grow, along with a passion
for foreign foods. If a health-related topic has
always interested you, perhaps look into courses?Sagittarius NOV 23 – DEC 22
Think big and start exploring options! With
Jupiter lighting up your sign, a dream could
become a reality. Friends should prove supportive,
possibly even pulling a few strings. At work,
your creative approach won’t go unnoticed:
there might even be a promotion in the pipeline.Pisces FEB 20 – MAR 20
As Venus spins into your social sector,
your fun-loving side should kick into action.
Events over the next month should bring out
your best, energising and relaxing you at the
same time. Even your libido should benefit
as the cosmos finetunes your senses, so get
onto that bedroom revamp.Aquarius JAN 21 – FEB 19
Now that social flurry is subsiding, your zone
of transformation is powering up for action.
Before next week’s new moon, set aside time
to declutter your cupboards, then reassess
your fitness, diet and finances – you might
even ditch a toxic person. Spring might mean
a whole new you!Taurus APR 21 – MAY 21
A sense of excitement is building, and should
only intensify. With your social butterfly poised
to take flight, you’re in for a memorable few
weeks. Just watch that spending, especially
over the weekend. If gifts are costing a small
fortune, get creative and make your own!Aries MAR 21 – APR 20
Good organisation is key, so slow down and
get yourself sorted. Clear the decks at work or
launch into an early spring clean. With Mars
swinging into action, you’ll have energy to burn
over the coming weeks – just don’t push too
hard or mishaps could take the gloss off things.Cancer JUNE 22 – JULY 23
Opportunities are headed your way from every
direction! Some Crabs will take on specialised
training, while for others, a money-making
venture could find wings. As your energy levels
rise, a fitness kick could build momentum – and
propel you towards some inspiring new people.Gemini MAY 22 – JUN 21
Late winter could propel you into fix-it mode,
not just at home, but at work and socially, too.
Whether it’s tackling repairs or smoothing ruffled
feathers, your efforts will be rewarded. Those
networking skills may also come in handy, either
for yourself or someone who needs a hand.
