Advice for Those Born on August 26

Friends & Lovers

The number 238 is also an angel number known as a good omen for love, compassion, and relationships. Stay focused on obtaining a future with your ideal companion and you will soon identify the person you are meant to be with. Be mindful and persistent in your own growth and that person will recognize you too.

Career & Finances

Take notice of and celebrate the little signs of progress in your career and finances. Your raises and recognition will likely come in small increments.

Be sure to keep a record of these as well as your successes. Write down everything that you are trained in and learn on the job to ensure that you remember them. When it comes to it, you will be able to use this to negotiate for larger raises and build a better resume.

Your finances will also come together slowly. It is a step-by-step process to grow financial stability and get your resources in order, so make sure that your goals are also broken down into steps. You should be able to identify fairly quickly where you have improved and where you need the most help.

Dreams & Goals

There will be plenty of people who, out of jealousy or their own fears, will try to prevent you or discourage you from doing what you set out to do. Do not let anything or anyone stand in your way of achieving your dreams and do not forget to call upon your angels. They are telling you that you were meant to have success and they are waiting to help you turn your dreams into reality.

Health

Worry less about your health than you have been lately. Virgos tend to be hypochondriacs which leads them to mentally sabotage themselves. Some of your illnesses are self-inflicted and harbored in your subconscious, so you need to seek guidance to overcome your fears about your body.

Your worrying may also be causing you extra stress and affecting your mental health. Look for ways to distract your mind from worries.

Conclusion

What messages have you been missing all this time?

You never thought to look in history or make connections to the people and signs that show up with your birthday. There are plenty of coincidences that do not seem to be coincidences at all. Perhaps the events and people that your birthday links you to could tell you a lot about what the Universe is telling you.
