Weekly Horoscope: 3 Zodiac Signs Advised to Avoid Trouble Before Start of Autumn

As the 24 Solar Terms approach "Liqiu," or the Start of Autumn, on August 7, 2026, a weekly horoscope for the 12 Chinese zodiac signs offers guidance for the period of August 2-8. Traditional folk beliefs associated with this time suggest avoiding overly cold or spicy foods and maintaining consistent sleep patterns to ward off ill health.

Furthermore, the day preceding "Liqiu" is recognized as a "Four Severances Day" in Chinese custom. During this time, it is traditionally advised to refrain from undertaking significant events such as weddings or signing important contracts, as the day is considered inauspicious for new beginnings.

The horoscope, generated through a 58-minute ritual by a Facebook page titled "The Hobbyist Fortune Teller," provides specific advice for each zodiac sign. For instance, those born in the Year of the Rat are encouraged to try new methods for old problems, while those in the Year of the Horse are advised to lie low and avoid travel due to potential misfortune.

Other signs receive varied advice: Oxen should organize their schedules, Tigers are encouraged to be proactive in seeking opportunities, and Dragons are advised to focus on completing long-term projects. Rabbits are cautioned about unstable interpersonal relationships, while Snakes are told to wait for the right moment. Sheep are blessed with good fortune in family and finances, Monkeys should prioritize honesty in partnerships, Roosters are advised to accept their current situation, Dogs should consolidate their gains and avoid financial risks, and Pigs can expect opportunities to emerge naturally.
