Pet Astrology - AOL UK

Just as the zodiac is divided up into 12 very different personality types it is perfectly natural that this should extend to animals.
All these different traits can be explained by studying the astrological influences that determine their character and behaviour patterns. Now check out your own pet's horoscope to see what the stars say this week - starting Monday, February 8th!

Aries

Take a deep breath and begin your week fully composed and in possession of yourself; while you're in that state you'll be better able to get your way with the various exploits you're concocting! After you've had your fun enter into the weekend by helping at home, then enjoy a lovely time with visitors who generate good feelings. Smells you love will be coming from the kitchen and you've been so good with your dietary practices you can allow yourself a few food indulgences.

Taurus

Has an odd scent in the air put you out of sorts? An assortment of odours have a pronounced effect on creatures such as yourself; if the source of this annoyance is in your home, alert your people to the wacky whiffs; no one wants you to suffer if they can prevent it! As a number of home repair projects call for the use of potentially toxic products, your housemate is under advisement to seek out more environmentally friendly products.

Gemini

With people you've not seen in a while popping in this week, you're reminded about being on your friendly best behaviour. You can greet everyone and then return to a comfy nook if you prefer, knowing they'll come to find you if they want to play. There's one lap you'll be very happy to curl up on though because they are a favourite friend of yours Enjoy these days and the feeling of being in the mix with congenial and attentive people.

Cancer

A busy beginning sets you up to expect a hectic week, but some lovely days of peace and quiet will lull you into a calm existence as the weekend approaches. A neighbour or visitor who suffered an injury finds comfort and a cure because of your being there. How this comes about is something of a mystery to the person involved, but all of this is no surprise to the one you live with as they know you're an animal who can divine the signs!

Leo

Friendly vibrations give you such a high level energy boost you're well positioned to get a lot done this week, both socially and at home. Help your people by doing any chores you're capable of; your actions will be noticed and rewarded with tasty treats or other pet luxuries. Friends are happy to have you around as you bring a positive spirit to the group; they won't even mind if you lead them all into mischief because you create such elegant fun.

Virgo

One unexpected event after another unfolds at every turn. Perhaps a previously unplanned trip is suddenly on the schedule, if not you could find ways to give your companion a clue as to where you'd enjoy going. One of your journeys may only be a local shopping trip, but another will be more colourful or unusual. Next weekend help those at home by providing whatever assistance is needed; don't wait to be asked, just pitch in with that gesture of service so natural to you.

Libra

Why not use the friendly cycle that's now in place to get some things you want? People are eager to take you out, bring you treats or leave you alone, it all depends on what you prefer at any given time. If your companion hopes for a sweepstakes win, they'd be well advised to consult you; then again, you might rather enjoy judging a pet food competition and have the honour of taking home a month's supply of the winning entry! Isn't that yummy!

Scorpio

You're not likely to let the start of the week dissolve into too much pleasantness while you're in a dark mood. Responding to invitations that make you feel anxious would be a mistake, while capturing a nap here and there is advised. No need to venture out if you don't wish to, but visitors who stop by may ask to see you as well. With friends arriving there are sure to be good smells coming from the kitchen from warm treats that will soothe you.

Sagittarius

How calm can you be expected to be when the possibility of travel is being discussed? Well, at least you can try to control your exuberance to some degree. Take a lesson from an earth sign friend, have you ever noticed how steady and solid they are; this makes people and pets feel confident around them! Of course, there's something to be said for the special brand of enthusiasm you bring to the moment, it just needs to be toned down a notch!

Capricorn

What on earth is going on? That's the question that's involving your whole household! From unpredictable arrivals at your door to unseasonable or atypical weather conditions outdoors, it's hard to know which way is up. Another pet might welcome these extraordinary events with waves of curiosity and happiness, but you prefer to have things conducted according to a standard of expectations. As you honour your daily rituals try to maintain a sense of normalcy during this unpredictable period as best you can.

Aquarius

Oh dear, a wide array of unpleasant consequences could potentially result from the escapades you and your friends are thinking of embarking on. While what you have in mind may seem like a great adventure, you could very easily end up in a muddle. Use a dose of common sense and excuse yourself from this group plan. Your energy for contributing to constructive projects around the house is high, so jump in and show your people what it means to be a good helper.

Pisces

Remember that wish you've been holding on to, well, in just another week or so you'll be in a prime position to get it. This hope has been with you for so long, you may have wondered if it could ever come true, but with your birthday month at the threshold, you can reach for that distant star. New information about this begins unfolding next week and as you get cosy contemplating this idea, your current dream life will take on yet more colour and dimension!
