Month of August
Aries
This is a month that when it comes to work and job matters, is divided into three parts. The first part will run until 7th August, with Mars working to pack as much into his final days in your work sector as possible. Knowing that once he leaves the planet of passion and the warrior planet of the cosmos won't be back until the end of 2026, as much as wanting to make things happen before he leaves, Mars is busy forging a path for the Sun and the rest of the planets when they return.
While the first part of the month is about having something to channel Mars' warrior and competitive spirit into, it is also more about what you can start than finish.
It is Mars' departure that will usher in the next part of the month, where for 16 days from his departure on 7th August to the Sun's return on 23rd August there is no planetary activity in your work sector. This will give you time to let what Mars has begun play out, but also catch your breath before the next part begins, this time running all the way through to when Venus, who won't even return until next month, leaves on 14th October.
In that time there will be two New Moons, the first when the Sun and Moon both return on 23rd August and then four weeks later, when the Moon not only comes full circle but as a solar eclipse, during what will be the Sun's final days.
With the Sun's month long visit bookended by a pair of New Moons and Venus and Mercury both held back by retrograde phases, what Mars has been able to kickstart during the six and a half weeks he will have spent here, will have a long tail. Meanwhile, the Moon's return to your career sector from 6th August to 8th August couldn't be more timely.
As well as returning in time to ensure your professional instincts are sharp and you are emotionally and intuitively engaged and aware as Mars leaves your work sector on 7th August, coming full circle from last month's Full Moon, there could be some surprise developments.
Taurus
While to begin with it is business as usual, with the Moon just leaving your work sector as you move into the new month your sixth sense will be telling you that this is about to change. While an ordinary monthly visit and with no planetary activity on the job front since the Sun left in October 2024, this was a valuable chance to check in and even without what this allowed your over the horizon radar to pick up on, this wrapped up a significant few days across the income, work and career fronts. The Moon was here during Venus' final days in your income sector and as it connected with Uranus there and Pluto in your career sector, this ended July on a high note.
As you move into the new month the Moon and Venus are gone, but with a strong sense of change in the air. You won't have to wait long, with the period from 7th August to 11th August set to be so game changing across the income, work and career fronts, that this will change the dynamics of the year itself. It begins with Mars' return to your work sector on 7th August, kicking off the first planetary activity on the job front this year and the warrior planet's first chance to fire things up in two years.
A day later that the Moon will not only return to your career sector, but to begin the lead up to a Full Moon on 9th August that couldn't come with better timing. It is on 9th August that Mars will form a friendly aspect to Uranus in your income sector for the first time in eight decades and a day later, will be connecting with Pluto in your career sector as well. As well as sharpening your professional instincts, the Moon is able to act as a trigger, just as a major triple alignment between Mars, Uranus and Pluto will be bringing things together across the income, work and career fronts.
It is later in the month that the Moon's only visit to your work sector while Mars is here, will once again bring things together from 26th August to 28th August.
Gemini
While on their own, the North Node in your career sector and the asteroid Juno, the queen of commitment in your work sector aren't major players but together with Venus and Jupiter in your income sector, they are part of a formidable team. This is a team that is making August one of the best months of the year on the income, work and career fronts, even though a lot of water has already passed under the bridge and there is more to come. It all comes down to timing, with all three being in the right place at the right time and with the conditions just right for each of them, as they join forces to become one.
Until Saturn retrogrades back into your career sector early next month and Neptune a month later, the North Node is on its own and looking to the future. So too is the asteroid Juno, who after retrograding back into your work sector in April, is in her first full month back in direct motion. With the brakes off work and job matters, the North Node providing a sense of professional direction and Jupiter now settled into his 12 month transit through your income sector, things are locked, loaded and ready to go, with Venus' return there on 31st July the spark that over the course of the month can set everything alight.
While the North Node, Jupiter and Juno will remain in harmony for months, they are slow moving and are connecting directly. Venus is only in your income sector until 26th August and as she moves through, she will connect with them all, something that will help in her efforts to make these some of the most lucrative weeks of the year. Meanwhile, the Moon's return to your work sector from 1st August to 3rd August, its return to your career sector from 10th August to 12th August and then coming full circle to your work sector again from 28th August to 31st August, are points in the month when things will come together on the income, work and career fronts.
Cancer
While it is a given that the dwarf planet Eris, the warrior princess of the cosmos who has been in your career sector for over nine decades will spend the majority of the second half of each year in retrograde motion, rarely with so many other planets doing the same. By the time you move into the new month four of the five planets in your career sector are in retrograde motion, including Saturn and Neptune, who will spend the first two weeks of August aligned. Neptune returned at the end of March for the first time in 150 years, and Saturn at the end of May for the first time in three decades.
As they align, this is a coming together of Saturn's resolve to do whatever it takes for as long as it takes in order to turn Neptune's dreams into reality. Having turned retrograde so soon after returning, this will see Saturn retrograde back out early next month and Neptune in October, only to return again in the New Year, Saturn to make this his home until 2028 and Neptune until 2039. For now though, Saturn and Neptune are in retrograde motion and so too are Chiron and Eris, the planets that quietly keep things on track year after year.
By this point, the only planet in your career sector still in direct motion is the dwarf planet Ceres, who returned in May to begin her first deep dive into your professional needs and priorities in four years.
Normally here for just three months, a retrograde turn on 12th August will keep Ceres here until March 2026, while putting all five planets in your career sector in retrograde motion and with the brakes on. While this is taking the urgency out of this professional year, it is also a chance to retrace your steps.
Meanwhile, some of the busiest and best days of the month across the income, work and career fronts will be when the Moon moves through your work sector from 3rd August to 5th August and when it comes full circle again on 31st August. Meanwhile, the Moon's return to your career sector from 12th August to 14th August will be a valuable chance to check in and get your bearings.
Leo
While there are no planets in either of your two professional houses and for half the month there will be no planets in your income sector either, this should be a good month across the income, work and career fronts. Less because of any new developments and more because of what has already been invested and a lack of pressure or urgency. While there has been no planetary activity in your work sector since the end of January, it was just in November 2024 that Pluto's departure ended 16 years of near continuous planetary activity on the job front.
Since then, the Moon's monthly visits have been enough to keep the momentum going, with last month's Full Moon giving things an additional boost.
The Moon will come full circle from that Full Moon from 6th August to 8th August, something that with Mars leaving your income sector on 7th August could see things come together on the income and job fronts as things come home to roost. This will leave you with no planetary activity in your income sector until the Sun not only returns on 23rd August, but with the Moon returning on the same day as a New Moon.
With your income sector empty for 16 days from Mars' departure on 7th August, that is half the month but with time to let what he has kickstarted play out.
It is during this time that the Moon will make its monthly visit to your career sector from 15th August to 17th August, something that in the middle of the month can sharpen your professional instincts, act as a trigger and bring a chance to check in. While until Uranus retrogrades back into your career sector in November there is no planetary activity here either, it was early last month that he and Venus not only left but brought six years of continuous planetary activity to a close.
While it will be income potential that will be driving things over the coming months, with not just months but years of planetary activity on the job and career fronts to back this up.
Virgo
While Venus has only just left your career sector on 31st July, having spent the majority of July here but as the first planet to spend time with Uranus here in eight decades, she has left you with high expectations and a new sense of what's possible. For Venus, apart from being held back by a retrograde phase and being late to return, this was an ordinary annual visit and something that for 26 days gave the planet of money, desire and attraction time to fuel your professional confidence, attract opportunities and steer things in a lucrative direction.
By the time Venus returned the Sun and Mercury had already moved through and it had been four weeks since Jupiter's nearly 13 month quest for professional growth and expansion ended, leaving you plenty to exploit.
However, it was two days after Venus returned that Uranus, the planet of surprise, synchronicity and the unexpected returned to your career sector for the first time in 77 years. While Uranus will retrograde back out for a few months in November, when he returns next year, it will be to spend the next eight years here and all of them working alongside Pluto, the planet of change and transformation in your work sector.
While Uranus and Pluto are slow outer planets, who together have years to transform things on the job and career fronts, events between 7th August and 11th August are set to be game changing across the income, work and career fronts.
It begins with Mars' return to your income sector, something that on 7th August will kick off the most lucrative months of 2025. However, two days later and just as Mars is moving into a friendly aspect to both Uranus and Pluto at the same time and this is kicking off a powerful few days on the income, work and career fronts, a Full Moon in your work sector on 9th August is the spark that can ignite it all.
Libra
As you move into the new month, held back by a retrograde phase earlier in the year Venus, the planet of money, desire and attraction is settling into her first full day in your career sector. By the time Venus returned on 31st July the Sun had been gone for eight days and it had been over a month since Mercury had moved through. This should have seen Venus miss the boat, but instead the boat is not only still in the dock waiting for her, but it is loaded to the gunwales with income, work and career potential.
Things couldn't be more ripe with potential, for Venus has not only returned to find Jupiter, the planet of luck and expansion in your career sector, but with built in support from the North Node in your work sector and the asteroid Juno, the queen of commitment in your income sector from the start. For Venus, who until leaving on 26th August will be on a mission to fuel your professional confidence, attract opportunities and steer things in a lucrative direction, the latter is especially important. At the same time, until Venus leaves and for the first time in over a decade, you will have the element of luck and the laws of attraction working in tandem, with Jupiter staying on until June 2026 to keep the momentum going.
In a month ripe with potential across the income, work and career fronts, the Moon's monthly visit to your two professional houses are likely to act as a trigger or points where things come together. The first will be the Moon's monthly visit to your work sector from 10th August to 12th August, and the last before coming full circle next month as a total solar eclipse. Five days later, the Moon will make its monthly visit to your career sector from 19th August to 21st August and its only visit while Venus is here.
Also bringing things together on the income, work and career fronts will be when the Moon moves through your income sector from 1st August to 3rd August and again from 28th August to 31st August.
Scorpio
Because the Sun will always spend the first three weeks of August in your career sector, the solar spotlight is always on your career and professional situation, matters and options at this time of year. However, this and the fact that the dwarf planet Eris, the warrior princess of the cosmos is in her first full month in retrograde motion in your work sector, as she will be at this time of year since returning over nine decades ago, are all that could be considered typical. Everything else is a new experience and is changing things up on the job and career fronts.
The first difference is just how long things have been active on the career front. While by the time you move into the new month the Sun has only been here for nine days, this is a continuation of what Mars began back in November 2024 and will continue until Venus, the last planet to return this year and the last to leave, will finally end all planetary activity on the career front on 20th September. Even Mercury, who returned at the end of June for what is normally a 14 to 15 day visit is still here, due to a retrograde turn that until 11th August is bringing a chance to look back.
At the same time, you also begin the month with four of the five planets in your work sector in retrograde motion.
Two of those planets are Saturn and Neptune, will spend the first two weeks of the month aligned, together giving you the resolve and confidence to revisit old dreams before they start to retrograde back out from early next month. Even the dwarf planet Ceres, the only planet in your work sector still in direct motion will not only turn retrograde on 12th August, but with the Moon returning a few hours later for a visit from 12th August to 14th August.
Meanwhile, the Moon's return to your career sector from 21st August to 23rd August will be in time to ensure your professional instincts are sharp in the lead up to the Sun's departure on 23rd August and ahead of Venus' return on 26th August.
Sagittarius
While there will be no planetary activity in either of your two professional houses for half the month, things will not only be active in the first week and the last eight days, but with a valuable gap in the middle. Until he leaves your career sector on 7th August, Mars will be firing up your professional passions, fighting and competitive spirit while looking for something to channel this into. Had Mars been the last rather than the first planet to move through your career sector this year and had it been up to him to bring things home, there would be a lot more urgency.
Instead, this leaves Mars free to blaze a trail and forge a path for the planets that will pass through over the coming months.
It is Mars' departure on 7th August that will not only temporarily bring planetary activity on the career front to an end until the Sun and Moon both return on 23rd August as a New Moon, but for the first time in six years, this will end all planetary activity in your two professional houses. This is when the impact of Uranus' departure from your work sector last month will be felt, for while this brought to an end for now a visit that had begun in 2019, with Mars in your career sector life remained busy and things remained highly charged professionally.
From 7th August to 23rd August there will be no planetary activity in either of your two professional houses and this is a whole new experience and a rare chance to catch your breath before the next wave begins.
It is during this period that the Moon will make its ordinary monthly visit to your work sector from 15th August to 17th August. While this will be the Moon's second visit since Uranus left last month, it will be the first without Mars making a lot of noise on the career front.
This is when a lot of things could fall into place or make sense on the job front. It is just six days later that first the Sun will return to your career sector on 23rd August, something that at this time each year will always shift the solar spotlight onto your career and professional situation, matters and options, followed by the Moon a few hours later as a New Moon. This is the first of two New Moons while the Sun is here, with the Moon returning next month as an eclipsing New Moon.
Capricorn
While Venus left your work sector in the closing hours of July and the Moon left your career sector a few hours later, as well as a chance to move into the new month with heart and gut on the same page, with both telling you this is going to be a big month across the income, work and career fronts. While this was an ordinary monthly visit and the Moon's departure was always going to allow you to move into the new month with your professional instincts sharp from the start, ahead of Mars' return on 7th August this is already on your over the horizon radar. At the same time while Venus left your work sector on 31st July, with everything needed to move into Uranus' first full month here in eight decades with confidence.
With Uranus, the planet of surprise, synchronicity and the unexpected in your work sector for the majority of the next eight years and Pluto, the planet of change and transformation in the first full year of a 20 year transit through your income sector, you are witnessing the birth of a powerful new partnership. This makes Mars' return to your work sector even more of a game changer than it already is, for as well as kicking off the first planetary activity on the job front this year, within days the planet of passion and the warrior planet of the cosmos will have become part of that partnership.
It is between 9th August and 11th August that Mars will form a triple alliance with Uranus and Pluto, but what will also set everything in motion and unleash the potential and momentum building across the income, work and career fronts will be a Full Moon in your income sector on 9th August.
From Mars' return on 7th August to when he starts to separate from Uranus and Pluto on 11th August, the dynamics of this professional year will shift. Another point in the month when things will be this closely aligned on the income, work and career fronts will be when the Moon returns to your work sector from 17th August to 19th August.
Aquarius
By the time you move into the new month, it has been nine days since the Sun left your work sector, the point in each year when the solar spotlight will always shift off your work situation and job matters and over a month since Mercury left. Yet instead of winding down on the other side of June and July, typically the most active months of any year on the job front, the best is not only still to come, but it has just arrived. When the Sun left this didn't leave your work sector empty and instead, for the first time since he returned in June to begin your biggest year for job growth and expansion in over a decade, Jupiter was not only here but for the first time since he returned in June, he was on his own.
This gave you a chance to pivot from the Sun's more short term focus and especially in terms of plotting a course for the coming months and onto a more long term focus, knowing that Jupiter is here until June 2026. The game changer was Venus' return on 31st July, with 1st August not only her first full day in your work sector but having teamed up with Jupiter for the first time in over a decade with the element of luck and the laws of attraction in effect at the same time. This will be the case until Venus leaves on 26th August, but this will be especially potent when they align on 11th/12th August.
This will be one of the luckiest days of the year full stop and not just for work and job matters.
However, this isn't just a good month for work and job matters, with Venus and Jupiter working closely with the North Node in your income sector and the asteroid Juno, the queen of commitment in her first full week in direct motion in your career sector. Venus' friendly aspect to Juno will not only peak on 17th August, but just two days before the Moon will make its only visit to your work sector while Venus is here from 19th August to 21st August.
Both then and when the Moon moves through your career sector from 1st August to 3rd August and again from 28th August to 31st August, will pull things together from across the income, work and career fronts.
Pisces
Because the Sun will always spend the first three weeks of August in your work sector, the solar spotlight is always on your work situation, job matters and options at this time of year, but rarely with such a large footprint. The Sun will return for his month long visit at the same time each year and this is something that only varies from year to year by a matter of hours. However, while Venus and Mercury will always return at around the same time, not to the same strict timetable and this can push things out a week or two either side of the Sun's month long visit.
However, this year that footprint extends all the way back to Mars' return in November 2024 and all the way forward to when Venus, who won't even return until next month, to when she leaves on 20th September. This is due to the fact that at different times of the year Venus, Mercury and Mars have all turned retrograde. It was a retrograde turn in December 2024 that turned Mars' ordinary six week visit into his longest in two decades, something that only ended 10 days before Mercury returned for what is normally a 14 to 15 day visit on 27th June.
A retrograde turn has instead kept Mercury here and while he will turn direct on 11th August, he is here until 3rd September. Mercury will stay on after the Sun leaves on 23rd August and will be here when held back by her own retrograde phase earlier in the year, Venus will finally return to bring things home on 26th August. Meanwhile, helping to exploit a month where there is a lot of untapped income and job potential will be the Moon's return to your career sector from 3rd August to 5th August, something that is going to bring things together on the income, work and career fronts.
Meanwhile, the Moon will come full circle from last month's New Moon in your work sector from 21st August to 23rd August, bringing things home while ensuring you are emotionally and intuitively engaged and aware during the Sun's final days.
