Month of August
Aries
This isn't exactly a slow month or point of the financial year, but a month where there is a chance to begin a transition from one side of the financial fence to the other. Until now, all the planetary activity has been on the income side of the financial fence and not just this year, with Uranus in your income sector for seven years by the time he left at the end of April. Since then the Sun, Mercury, Venus, Mars and even the dwarf planet Ceres have moved through, all keeping things active while adding their own influence.
When Mars left at the end of June, this should have ended all planetary activity on the income side of the financial fence.
Instead, nine days before Mars left the asteroid Chiron, the planet of wisdom, knowledge and healing returned for the first time in five decades. Chiron is not here to make things happen or to advance things, with his focus more on learning and with so much water having passed under the bridge, there is a lot to process.
Chiron's retrograde turn on 4th August will begin to focus more on reviewing the journey so far but will also see him retrograde back out next month. The Moon's return from 5th August to 7th August will help with that transition, while ensuring your nose for money is sharp in the lead up to Venus, the planet of money's departure from your work sector on 7th August.
Meanwhile, while there is no planetary activity on the other side of the financial fence, the side where it is more about what you do with and how you manage the money you have, it is waiting in the wings for its turn.
While not returning to your financial sector until next month, instead of racing through in 24 days, a retrograde turn will keep Venus here for the majority of the rest of the year. Until then, the Moon's return to your financial sector from 18th August to 20th August will be a chance to sharpen your financial instincts and check in on money matters.
Taurus
While the focus is and will remain on the income side of the financial fence, this can be seen as a month of two halves, with the first half full of energy and action and from 13th August, a chance to take your foot off the gas. This is the point when it will become more about the journey and keeping things on track. There has been continuous planetary activity in your income sector since Venus and Uranus returned at the end of April.
Venus, the first to return, was only here for 24 days, but as the planet of money, desire and attraction, it was she who kicked off the most lucrative months of the year, something that is still ongoing.
Since then, the Sun and Mercury have moved through, Mars has returned to begin his first war on income roadblocks and barriers in two years and the dwarf planet Ceres, has begun her first deep dive into your income needs and priorities in four years. Uranus, who is here now and charged with keeping things on track until 2033, spent the whole of July at a friendly aspect to Pluto in your career sector.
As this was just the first of five times they will come together between now and 2028, this was the start of a partnership that is here to stay, though with both playing a long game. Meanwhile, as you move into the new month Mars and Ceres are still here but are getting ready to leave.
Buoyed by the Full Moon in your career sector at the end of last month and by Venus, the planet of money's return to your work sector on 7th August, Mars' fight for what you deserve will make his final days before leaving on 11th August some of the most pivotal.
With Ceres leaving on 13th August, the Moon's return from 7th August to 9th August couldn't come with better timing. While something that every four weeks can sharpen your nose for money and act as a trigger, just as things will be ripe with potential across the income, work and career fronts. Meanwhile, with no planetary activity on the other side of the financial fence, the Moon's return to your financial sector from 20th August to 23rd August will be a chance to sharpen your financial instincts and check in on money matters.
Gemini
On both sides of the financial fence, there are surprise developments this month. To the point where on both sides first impressions will be wrong. On the income front, first impressions will be that with the Sun, Jupiter and Venus having already moved through your income sector and after two months Mercury is finally getting ready to leave, things have run their course.
On the other side of the financial fence, with no planets in your financial sector since Juno, the queen of commitment left at the end of March, apart from the Moon's monthly visits there should be no focus on money matters until later in the year. In both cases, you would be wrong. That will change with the Moon's well timed visit to your income sector from 9th August to 11th August, something that every four weeks can sharpen your nose for money and act as a trigger.
It is while Mercury, back in direct motion and over two months after returning for what is normally a 14 to 15 day chance to use this smart head for money to get your head in the game, will leave on 10th August. This should and for a few hours does end all planetary activity on the income front, but because the Moon is here there will be no drop off. Instead, in the same way that it almost looks like Mercury has held on for the Moon to get here so he could leave, the Moon will hold on until on 11th April, a day after Mercury left and just seven minutes before it is due to leave, Mars returns.
Instead of coming to an end, until leaving at the end of September, for the first time in two years Mars will be declaring war on income roadblocks and barriers, while on 13th August the dwarf planet Ceres will return to begin a deep dive into your income needs and priorities that won't end until May 2027. Meanwhile, it is in between Mars and Ceres' return to your income sector that on 12th August the asteroid Juno, the queen of commitment will return to your financial sector, with a chance to revisit your financial intentions and resolutions. The Moon will give you a better read on this when it moves through from 23rd August to 25th August.
Cancer
Because the Sun will always spend the first three weeks of August in your income sector, the solar spotlight is always on the income side of the financial fence at this time of year. However, even before the Sun returned last month, the game had already changed. Not only had Venus already moved through and, as the planet of money, desire and attraction gotten the most lucrative months of the year underway, but Jupiter had returned at the end of June to begin your biggest year for income growth and expansion in over a decade.
By the time the Sun returned, Jupiter had been here for over three weeks and was just warming up.
However, it was three events in the final days of July that has galvanised things on both sides of the financial fence in a way that is here to stay and they all happened within the space of just a few days. The first was the lunar nodes' return to your two money houses, where until they leave in March 2028 they will monitor a balance between money coming in and money going out.
With Jupiter in your income sector until July 2027 and Pluto powering up the other side of the financial fence until 2044, this couldn't be more important. By this point, the Sun and Jupiter were moving towards and alignment that peaked at the same time as a Full Moon in your financial sector, energising and galvanising both sides of the financial fence.
This may have created some financial tension, but until she retrogrades out of your financial sector on 12th August Juno, the queen of commitment is using this to tighten up your financial resolutions, while as he moves through your income sector from 10th August to 25th August, you will have Mercury's smart head for money to draw on.
Meanwhile, because the Moon has just left your financial sector and just wrapped up the Full Moon at the end of last month, you will begin the month with your financial instincts sharp, while just starting to unpack it all. This will give you some breathing space before the Moon not only returns to your income sector from 11th August to 13th August, but having the South Node here will turn an ordinary New Moon into a total solar eclipse, bringing the element of luck and fate into play.
Leo
It was in the closing days of July that after 18 months, the lunar nodes left your two money houses, something that will have implications for the rest of the financial year. With no planets in your financial sector, the side of the financial fence where it is more about what you do with and how you manage the money you have until early next year, apart from the Moon's monthly visits, the North Node's departure has ended all cosmic activity on this side of the of the financial fence. However, not before spending the last 18 months providing a sense of financial direction and having been here during the final 12 months of Neptune, the planet of hopes and dreams' 13 month transit through your financial sector.
This leaves you with everything needed to stay on top of money matters, though with the Moon's monthly visits helping with that. Fortunately, you not only begin the month with the Moon in your financial sector, but having returned just five days after the North Node left and not leaving until 3rd August, with a chance to start the month with your financial instincts sharp. The Moon will come full circle again from 28th August to 30th August, though this will be more than just a chance to check in.
By this point, the Sun will be in your income sector and the Moon will not only clash to create a Full Moon on 28th August, but even though it has left, it is still close enough to the North Node to create a lunar eclipse that can energise both sides of the financial fence.
Meanwhile, while this also saw the South Node leave your income sector, with Venus here until 7th August, the Sun returning on 23rd August and Mercury on 25th August, just as things are starting to move on the income side of the financial fence. Unlike your financial sector, where there had been near continuous planetary activity for decades, Venus' return last month and the lunar nodes' departure has finally shifted the balance of power to the income side of the financial fence.
While Venus will leave on 7th August, not before setting things in motion, while in between her departure and the Sun's return, the Moon will move through from 13th August to 15th August.
Virgo
While your financial sector, the side of the financial fence where it is more about what you do with and how you manage the money you have, will remain active, there is a passing of the torch, with the income side finally getting its turn. Or at least that will be the case when Venus makes an early return to your income sector on 7th August, something that will have long term implications. Until then, the focus is still on the other side of the financial fence, where the three planets that will remain in your financial sector for not just this year, but several years to come, are settling into their first full month in retrograde motion.
One by one Neptune, the planet of hopes and dreams who returned in January to spend the next 13 years in your financial sector, Saturn who returned in February to spend the next two years giving you the resolve to do whatever it takes for as long as it takes and the dwarf planet Eris, the warrior princess of the cosmos who has been here for nine decades, all turned retrograde and by the time you move into the new month are barely moving. Money matters have gone into review mode, while giving you slow, steady and consistent control for the rest of the year. You will have a chance to get a better read on this when the Moon returns from 3rd August to 5th August and again from 30th August to 1st September.
Meanwhile, while the Sun doesn't return to your income sector until the September equinox each year, six weeks before things are due to open up on the income front Venus, the planet of money's return on 7th August will kick off the first planetary activity on the income side of the financial fence since last year and the most lucrative months of 2026. Normally here for just 24 days, Venus' early return will not only keep her here for over five weeks, but after leaving next month will see her retrograde back in for a do over in October and then not leave until December. All that time, with the laws of attraction in effect and with major support from planets on the job and career fronts.
By the time the Moon moves through your income sector from 16th August to 18th August, things will be ripe with potential across the income, work and career fronts.
Libra
While on both sides of the financial fence, things are fairly quiet, on one side things are moving into review mode, while on the other side, you are gearing up for major developments next month. It is in your financial sector, that side of the financial fence where the focus is more on what you do with and how you manage the money you have and on money matters as a whole, that things are moving into review mode and about time. While it was at the end of April that after seven years Uranus, who had been a constant guide for money matters left, just as the faster planets were returning.
Over the following months the Sun, Mercury, Venus, Mars and even the dwarf planet Ceres on her first deep dive into your financial needs and priorities in four years had all moved through. This should have ended all planetary activity on this side of the financial fence for the year but nine days before Mars left at the end of June, the asteroid Chiron, the planet of wisdom, knowledge and healing returned for the first time in five decades. Chiron is not here to stay, with his retrograde turn on 4th August the halfway point of a six week trip in and a six week trip back out again, before returning in April to spend the next seven years here.
This is more a chance to review and learn from the journey so far. Moving through from 5th August to 7th August, the Moon will be here until just after Chiron turns retrograde, keeping your financial instincts sharp while emotionally and intuitively engaged and aware. Meanwhile, it is the professional gods that are preparing for Venus, the planet of money's return to your income sector early next month, where a retrograde turn will keep her here for the majority of the rest of the year.
Helping with that will be Mars' return to your work sector on 11th August and the dwarf planet Ceres' return on 13th August. Both will still be here when Venus returns and when the Moon moves through your income sector from 18th August to 20th August.
Scorpio
While there have been no planets in your income sector since Mercury left in the New Year and there won't be until the Sun returns in November, that is not only normal for this time of year, but you have the professional gods doing much of the heavy lifting. While the Sun will always spend the first three weeks of August in your career sector, as the month begins, he is still separating from an alignment with Jupiter, who until leaving in July 2027 is on a quest for professional growth and expansion. Along with the three planets in your work sector and with this professional year powering up, the Moon's return to your income sector each month is enough to keep income potential on track.
By the time the Moon moves through your income sector from 20th August to 23rd August, something that every four weeks can sharpen your financial instincts and act as a trigger, things will be ripe with potential across the income, work and career fronts. Also by then, with Mars and the dwarf planet Ceres gone from your financial sector, things will be less urgent on the other side of the financial fence. Until then, this is this is the side of the financial fence where all the action is, the side where it is more about what you do with and how you manage the money you have.
While Uranus returned at the end of April to spend the next seven years acting as a guide and to keep money matters on track, he is playing a long and slow game and once he is on his own, this is where things will shift. In the meantime, knowing that he won't be back for another two years, until leaving on 11th August, Mars will be firing up your financial passions and fighting spirit in an effort to take your financial power back. Until leaving and wrapping up her last deep dive into your financial needs and priorities for another four years on 13th August, this is giving you a better sense of where to channel Mars' need for something to fight for.
Fortunately, with the Moon moving through your financial sector from 7th August to 9th August, you will be able to capture their final days.
Sagittarius
Like a plant springs back to life when it finally gets some water, just when it looks like nothing is happening on one side of the financial fence and on the other side after months, things are finally running their course, within the space of 48 hours, on both sides everything will change. Until 10th August it is business as usual. Which means no planets in your income sector since the asteroid Juno, the queen of commitment left at the end of March and two months after returning, Mercury still in your financial sector but getting ready to leave.
Having returned at the start of June for what is normally a 14 to 15 day chance to use this smart head for money to get your head in the game, Mercury should have been long gone.
Instead, while back in direct motion, a retrograde turn kept Mercury here during the final four weeks of Jupiter's 13 month quest for financial growth and expansion and while the Sun and Venus moved through. His departure on 10th August will end all planetary activity on the financial front, though only for a few hours and the Moon's well timed visit will ensure there is zero downtime.
The Moon will return on 9th August, in time to ensure your financial instincts are sharp during Mercury's final hours, while staying on to ensure the chain remains unbroken. This brings you to a game changing 48 hours, with the Moon managing to hold on and is if waiting for him, will leave just seven minutes after Mars returns.
Mercury has been waiting for the Moon to pass the reins to and the Moon has been waiting for Mars, who returns for his first chance in two years to fire up your financial passions and fighting spirit.
While Mars is only here until the end of September, less than 48 hours later the dwarf planet Ceres will return on 13th August to begin her first deep dive into your financial needs and priorities in four years and won't leave until May 2027. It is in between the two that on 12th August, four and a half months after leaving, Juno will retrograde back into your income sector in order to bring things back to life. Once again, the Moon's timing will be spot on, with the Sun's return to your career sector on 23rd August coming just as it returns from 23rd August to 25th August to sharpen your nose for money and act as a trigger.
Capricorn
While the Sun will always spend the first three weeks of August in your financial sector and the solar spotlight is always on your financial situation and money matters at this time of year, on both sides of the financial fence, it is anything but business as usual. When Venus returned in June to begin the first planetary activity in your financial sector this year, the side of the financial fence where it is more about what you do with and how you manage the money you have, it was to find not only Pluto in your income sector, but the asteroid Juno, the queen of commitment as well.
When Jupiter returned at the end of June to begin your biggest year for financial growth and expansion in over a decade a few weeks later he found the same, as did the Sun when he returned last month.
Each opposition was brief but made it clear that the income side of the financial fence was still in the game. Things not only came to a head but locked into place at the end of last month, when two days before the Moon returned to begin the lead up to a Full Moon in your income sector, the lunar nodes returned to your two money houses, where until March 2028 they will monitor a balance between money coming in and money going out. This came just as the Sun and Jupiter had aligned in your financial sector, with the lunar nodes returning in time to referee a powering up on both sides of the financial fence.
While the Sun will leave your financial sector on 23rd August and Mercury will move through from 10th August to 25th August, Jupiter will not only stay on, but having the South Node here is going to turn the New Moon, as the Moon moves through from 11th August to 13th August, into a total solar eclipse. This will create some serious financial momentum, bringing the elements of luck and fate into play, while offering a chance for major new beginnings. At the same time, with the North Node in your income sector, when the asteroid Juno, the queen of commitment leaves your income sector on 12th August, it will keep a lucrative sense of direction locked in.
That will be an advantage in a month ripe with potential across the income, work and career fronts.
Aquarius
It was late last month that after 18 months, the lunar nodes left your two money houses. As well as ending their monitoring of a balance between money coming in and money going out, with no planets in your income sector, this has brought a shift to the other side of the financial fence. However, having had the North Node in your income sector since January 2025 and with Neptune, the planet of hopes and dreams having just left in January and after three years Saturn, the planet with the resolve to do whatever it takes for as long as it takes a few weeks later, you are ready to take the trainer wheels off.
However, the Moon will continue to return every four weeks and this will help to keep things on track and the momentum going. You not only begin the month with the Moon in your income sector until 3rd August, but it had returned just five days after the North Node left and beginning the month at a friendly aspect to Mercury in your work sector, will make it easy to hold onto and lock into its lucrative sense of direction. Meanwhile, when the South Node left your financial sector, where for the last 18 months it had been providing constant feedback on money matters, when it left it left Venus, the planet of money behind.
Without having to compete with the income side of the financial fence, until she leaves on 7th August, Venus will be focused on boosting your financial confidence and updating your financial desires and expectations ahead of the Sun's return on 23rd August. While Venus will have left before the Sun returns, something that on the September equinox each year will always see the solar spotlight shift onto your financial situation and money matters, the Moon's return from 13th August to 16th August will help to bridge the gap. This will be the first time in decades that the Moon will be able to move through with no pushback from the income side of the financial fence, giving you a clear and intuitive read on money matters.
Pisces
While this month will see a shift in the dynamics of the financial year, it is a natural and gradual shift and one that will benefit both sides of the financial fence. To begin with, as has been the case all year, all the planetary activity is on the income side of the financial fence. While a huge number of planets have moved through your income sector this year and at times there have been up to six planets here at any one time, all the faster planets have moved through.
Left are the three core planets that are here to stay and will provide a solid, immovable foundation that is going to keep things on track.
This includes Neptune, the planet of hopes and dreams who returned in January to spend the next 13 years here, Saturn who returned in February to spend the next two years giving you the resolve to do whatever it takes for as long as it takes and the dwarf planet Eris, the warrior princess of the cosmos, who has been here for over nine decades. Over the course of July, all three turned retrograde and for the rest of the year will be retracing the steps and with major new doors opening on the job front, to focus on the past, second chances and untapped income potential.
Meanwhile, when the Moon moves through it will be focused on triggering both new and untapped potential.
Whether it is the Moon's return from 3rd August to 5th August or when it returns again from 30th August to 1st September, it will be to sharpen your nose for money, act as a trigger and to make these pivotal days on the income and job fronts. Meanwhile, while the planets in your income sector turn back to focus on the road behind, when Venus returns to your financial sector on 7th August to begin the first planetary activity on the other side of the financial fence, it will be with the road clear for some much needed focus on money matters.
The Moon's return to your financial sector from 16th August to 18th August will give you an early taste of her influence, while sharpening your financial instincts and helping to put heart and gut on the same page.
