Month of August
Aries
While the Sun will always spend the first three weeks of August in a playful and creative part of your chart before returning to spend the rest of the month in your busy work sector, that annual shift has already begun. However, this year this is not only more muted but will never completely happen. By the time the Sun returned last month, it was to find that Venus had already moved through and that at the end of June Jupiter, the largest and most powerful planet in the solar system had returned.
The Sun might leave on 23rd August, but the Sun is not only here until July 2027, but in the closing hours of July the South Node returned.
Not only is the South Node here until March 2028, working with Jupiter to keep the playful and creative side of life's fence alive and energised, but having it here means that when the Moon moves through from 11th August to 13th August, instead of creating an ordinary New Moon, it will turn this into a total solar eclipse. At the same time, before the Sun can return to your work sector, Venus not only begins the month here, having left at the end of March the asteroid Juno, the queen of commitment will retrograde back into your career sector on 12th August.
Venus will leave on 7th August, but things will remain on a slow boil across the income, work and career fronts all month. This isn't enough to upset the balance between work and play, which is good news, for on 7th August Venus will return to begin the first planetary activity on the relationship front this year. Rather than the usual 24 day visit by the planet of love, a retrograde turn will eventually see her influence stretch all the way out to early December.
While Mars will leave your communication sector on 11th December and the dwarf planet Ceres on 13th August, Venus will benefit from the time and energy they have put into getting the communication lines open.
Taurus
It was in the closing day of July that a major standoff took place in the heavens that is set to shape the rest of the year and beyond and it was a result of two overlapping developments. It began on 27th July with a shift in the lunar nodes that saw the North Node return to your career sector and the South Node to your home and family sector, where they will remain until March 2028. Individually, this will see them return to already active areas of your chart, empowering them even more.
Together, this was the start of a 20 month policing of your work/life balance.
It was just two days later that the Moon not only returned to your career sector as a Full Moon, but just as the Sun and Jupiter had aligned in your home and family sector, powering up both sides of life's fence and putting the lunar nodes' new mandate to an early test. As you move into the new month, the Moon has just left, but not before firing things up professionally.
With Venus returning to spend an extended amount of time in your work sector on 7th August, Mars leaving your income sector on 11th August but Uranus here for the long haul, this sets the scene for a powerful month and end to the year across the income, work and career fronts.
At the same time, the alignment between the Sun and Jupiter is just starting to separate and while the Sun is only here until 23rd August, with Jupiter here until July 2027, a powerful year for home, family and/or property matters is just warming up. Meanwhile, while the lunar nodes are monitoring your work/life balance, when the Moon moves through your home and family sector from 11th August to 13th August, this will also turn an ordinary New Moon into a total solar eclipse, with the promise of major new beginnings.
Meanwhile, taking advantage of a new focus on your work/life balance will be Venus, in her final days in a playful and creative part of your chart until 7th August and the asteroid Juno, who will retrograde back into an adventurous part on 12th August for a do over.
Gemini
While the Sun will always spend the first three weeks of August in your communication sector, he and the communication lines have some serious support and not just from Mercury, the planet of communication, who will move through from 10th August to 23rd August. While by the time you move into the new month, the Sun has only been here for nine days Jupiter, the largest and most powerful planet in the solar system has been here for a month and Venus, who got the ball rolling by focusing on giving your heart and your relationships a voice, has been and gone. This also got a boost when the South Node returned at the end of last month.
When your communication sector is active and with Jupiter here until July 2027 it is set to remain active, every aspect of your life benefits. Here the focus isn't just on communication, but you are going to be mentally sharper and better able to think on your feet. However, this will be felt strongly on the social, friendship, team and networking fronts, due to the friendly aspect the planets moving through your communication sector will make to the three planets in your friendship sector.
This will be especially so when the Moon not only moves through from 11th August to 13th August, but as a total solar eclipse.
Meanwhile, while in between the North Node's departure from your career sector at the end of last month and Venus' return to your work sector next month, this is a low key month professionally, this is not only a chance to let things settle before a busy start to the year, but to focus more on the money. Just as things should be dialling back on the income front, Mars' return on 11th August is going to fire things up again.
Until then, Mars will be working to make the most of his final days in an adventurous part of your chart. With planets staying on and Venus returning to a playful and creative part of your chart on 7th August, this is a month for getting the balance between work and play right.
Cancer
Because the Sun will always spend the first three weeks of June in your income sector, the solar spotlight is always on the income side of the financial fence at this time of year, not to this degree and not with major implications on both sides of the financial fence. With Jupiter having returned at the end of June to begin your biggest year for income growth and expansion in over a decade, this was always going to be more than just an annual update. At the same time, while you have Pluto in your financial sector until 2044, this year he has the asteroid Juno, the queen of commitment with him.
Both sides of the financial fence were already empowered but also keeping each other in check when, in the final days of July, the lunar nodes not only returned to your two money houses, but two days before the Moon returned to your financial sector as a Full Moon and an alignment between the Sun and Jupiter in your income sector peaked. Just as both sides of the financial fence were throwing everything they had into the ring, the lunar nodes returned to begin their 20 month policing of a balance between money coming in and money going out. With things remaining powered up on both sides, the lunar nodes will be able to referee things.
Having the lunar nodes here will also have other implications. When the Moon returns to your income sector from 11th August to 13th August, this will turn an ordinary New Moon into a total lunar eclipse, giving income potential a major boost. This will coincide with Mars' return to Cancer on 11th August, something that if you have been in a low energy funk, is going to change everything.
It is two days later that the dwarf planet Ceres will return to begin her first deep dive into your personal needs and priorities in four years. Helping with the lead up will be the Moon's first visit to Cancer since the Sun left and brought your birthday month to a close, from 9th August to 11th August.
Leo
Welcome to your birthday month and not just a new solar year, but one of your most powerful and exciting years in over a decade. By the time you move into August, the Sun has only been in Leo for nine days, but already he has aligned with Jupiter, who returned at the end of June to begin a new 12 year Jupiter cycle of expansion and formed a friendly aspect to Neptune, the planet of hopes and dreams in your sector of adventure, travel, learning and discovery. Before leaving on 23rd August, the Sun will go on to form a friendly aspect to the other two planets there, as will Mercury, when he moves through from 10th August to 25th August.
The three planets in an adventurous part of your chart aren't just three of the most powerful planets in the solar system, but will work in partnership with Jupiter until he leaves Leo in July 2027. Adding to the start of this powerful year was the South Node's return to Leo at the end of last month. While along with its partner the North Node's return to your relationship sector, they will be monitoring a balance between your own and your relationship needs until they leave in March 2028, when the Moon moves through Leo from 11th August to 13th August, this will turn an ordinary New Moon into a total solar eclipse.
Along with the promise of major new beginnings, this will bring the element of luck and fate into play. While the Sun will leave and bring your birthday month to a close on 23rd August, Jupiter will stay on and will continue to open new doors and explore new options. Meanwhile, while this is the point when the Sun's return to your income sector will also turn the solar spotlight onto the income side of the financial fence, until leaving on 7th August, the month begins with Venus here as the planet of money, she already has the ball rolling.
Virgo
For you, August is always going to be a month where the lines between the past, present and future overlap. Always spending the first three weeks of August in a nostalgic and reflective part of your chart, by the time you move into the new month you are already nine days into the month long wind down of your old solar year. While this will end when on 23rd August the Sun leaves and returns to Virgo to begin your birthday month and new solar year, things are rarely that clear cut and especially not this year.
The Sun might follow the same strict timetable, but the rest of the planets don't.
By the time you move into the new month, Venus is already in Virgo and until leaving on 7th August, is already opening new doors, while at the end of June Jupiter returned to a nostalgic and reflective part of your chart where he will stay until July 2027, bringing your current 12 year Jupiter cycle of expansion to a close. With the month set to get off to a busy start and especially on the job and career fronts, this makes the lunar nodes' new monitoring of how well you know when to keep your work hat on and when to take it off all the more important.
Especially in a month where there is some subtle but real support building on the playful, creative and adventurous side of life's fence.
Meanwhile, when Venus leaves Virgo on 7th August, it is not only to return to your income sector to begin the first planetary activity here since last year and the most lucrative months of 2026, but to really make her mark. As the planet of money, desire and attraction, the 24 days that Venus will usually spend here can be the most lucrative weeks of any year.
However, by the time she leaves next month, Venus will have been here for five weeks and she will be slowing ahead of a retrograde that will not only see her return in October but not leave again until December. This will have an impact on the rest of the year.
Libra
In the closing days of July, the lunar nodes shifted and while their focus until March 2028 is now on maintaining a balance between being a team player and a free spirit, not before spending the last 18 months policing your work/life balance. The lunar nodes might have left, but this is the month that they have been helping you prepare for. While it was late last month that there was a major powering up on the playful, creative and adventurous side of life's fence, this is something that is now locked into place, is here to stay and will continue to have an impact on the rest of the year.
While not a problem, the situation you face is that just as things should be and are showing all the signs of slowing down professionally or at least levelling off, they are instead about to power up. At the centre of both sides of life's fence is Mars, the planet of passion and the warrior planet of the cosmos. Until leaving your sector of adventure, travel, learning and discovery on 11th August, Mars is not only fuelling a passion for adventure and a hunger for life's richer experiences but is working with planets here and in a playful and creative part of your chart that are in this for the long haul and can keep this alive.
At the same time it is Mars, who a day after Mercury leaves your career sector on 10th August, will return to begin his first chance in two years to fire up your professional passions, fighting and competitive spirit. Mars has returned to give this professional year its second wind, something that the Moon's return to your career sector on 28th August as an eclipsing Full Moon will add to. With Mars not leaving until the end of September, he will be here when Venus returns to your income sector early next month to bring the year to a lucrative end.
Scorpio
Because the Sun will always spend the first three weeks of August in your career sector, this is always an active point in any professional year, but this year with a lot more moving parts and with long range implications. By the time you move into the new month, the Sun has only been here for nine days, but not only has a lot of water already passed under the bridge since then, but before he even returned. While long gone, it was Venus who kicked things off in early June, while preparing the way for Jupiter's return later that month to begin your biggest year for professional growth and expansion in over a decade.
From the start, this came with the support of the three planets in your work sector, powering up your professional year long before the Sun returned. While the Sun is only here until 23rd August, Jupiter is here until July 2027 and in the closing months of 2026 and early months of 2027, things are set to power up even more. You haven't just reached a powerful point in this professional year, but in decades.
Adding to this was a shift in the lunar nodes late last month. On the one hand, after the South Node returned to your career sector and the North Node to your home and family sector, this has begun a 20 month monitoring of your work/life balance.
On the other hand, when the Moon moves through your career sector from 11th August to 13th August, this will turn an ordinary New Moon into a powerful total solar eclipse, creating a major thrust forward while bringing the elements of luck and fate into play.
Meanwhile, helping to keep things balanced is Mars' return to your sector of adventure, travel, learning and discovery on 11th August and the dwarf planet Ceres' return two days later. While Mars is only here until the end of September, Ceres' first deep dive into your needs and priorities beyond simply going through the motions will continue through to May 2027.
Sagittarius
While there is deliberate intent or action from the stars to make this a balance where you might just get the balance between work and play right, you have all the ingredients to do just that, without any one aspect taking from or demanding from the other. Almost as if unaware of each other, there are forces that are going to make this a good month across the income, work and career fronts without pushing anything, while at the same time, the playful, creative and adventurous side of life's fence is powering up and is going to remain powered up. Almost unaware of each other and not getting in each other's way, both sides of life's fence are just going to get on with it.
While the Sun won't return to your career sector until 23rd August, Venus begins the month here but will leave on 7th August. With Chiron staying on in your work sector but turning retrograde on 4th August and having left your income sector at the end of March the asteroid Juno, the queen of commitment retrograding back in on 12th August, they will keep things in safe hands. By the time the Sun returns on 23rd August and Mercury on 25th August, things will be looking positive on the income, work and career fronts, though with little demands or urgency.
Meanwhile, while the Sun will always spend the first three weeks of August in your sector of adventure, travel, learning and discovery, when he leaves this won't take the focus off the adventurous side of life's fence. Instead, having returned at the end of June and not leaving until July 2027, Jupiter will not only continue to put his considerable weight behind the adventurous side of life's fence, but with the help of the three powerful planets in a playful and creative part of your chart that will be here throughout that time. This is a month where it will be easy to keep things balanced and also enjoy the perks of what will be a positive month across the communication, social and relationship fronts.
Capricorn
Because the Sun will always spend the first three weeks of August in your financial sector, the solar spotlight is always on your financial situation and money matters at this time of year. However, not to this degree and not with both sides of the financial fence affected. By the time you move into the new month the Sun has only been 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 for nine days, but already a lot of water has passed under the bridge.
Even before the Sun's return, Jupiter's return at the end of June had brought you to the start of what he will be working to make your biggest year for financial growth and expansion in over a decade.
Unusual for this time of year, while you have Pluto in your income sector until 2044, this year you not only have the asteroid Juno, the queen of commitment here, but the support of three planets in your work sector at a point in the year when there is rarely any planetary activity on the job front. This resulted in the Sun returning to find that the income side of the financial fence was also just as active.
However, in the nine days since the Sun returned, both sides powered up even more and all in the final days of July. It began with the lunar nodes' return to your income sector, where until they leave in March 2028 they will help to monitor a balance between money coming in and money going out.
However, it was just two days later that the Moon not only returned to your income sector as a Full Moon but just as the Sun and Jupiter aligned in your financial sector, with both sides of the financial fence powering up even more.
By the time you move into the new month, the Moon has just left, but with both sides of the financial fence remaining powered up. While that will remain the case for not just the rest of the month but for the rest of the year and beyond, this month isn't just about the money. At the same time that this is going to be an active month on the playful, creative and adventurous side of life's fence, Mars and the dwarf planet Ceres are also going to keep the focus on your relationships going.
Aquarius
On both your own and on the relationship front, the gauntlet has been thrown down, with each side eyeing the other and saying, 'bring it on'. Even before the lunar nodes returned at the end of last month to begin their 18 month policing of a balance between your own and your relationship needs and the Full Moon in Aquarius that delivered the same message, this was already something you would have been aware of since as far back as Venus, the planet of love's return to your relationship sector in early June. With Pluto, the planet of change and transformation now in Aquarius until 2044, no planet can return to your relationship sector without clashing, though only briefly.
Pluto is your champion, determined to ensure that any focus on your relationships is not at the expense of your own needs. While Venus has long since moved on, when Jupiter returned to your relationship sector for the first time in over a decade, this presented a bigger challenge, for instead of passing through, he is here now until July 2027. While Jupiter and Pluto clashed last month and the Sun did the same when he returned to your relationship sector late last month, as you move into your biggest relationship year in over a decade, as each planet returns, the message from Pluto is the same.
While a balance between your own and your relationship needs will continue to be monitored, it is because you are becoming more personally empowered. Helping with that is having the asteroid Juno, the queen of commitment in Aquarius, who will be using this to help define your personal intentions and resolutions and when it comes to what you want from your relationships and what they need from you. Also helping is the support of the three planets in your communication sector, who will be here right through to when the last planet finally leaves in your relationship sector, in the second half of 2027.
Pisces
While there was a shift in the lunar nodes late last month, they are always going to be somewhere, always in opposition and always keeping the other in check and things balanced. The only thing that has changed is where that is focused and for you, this has been a win/win. By the time the lunar nodes left on 27th July, they had spent 18 months policing a balance between your own and your relationship needs, something that you are now getting to benefit from.
With Venus, the planet of love starting the month in your relationship sector, the Sun returning on 23rd August and Mercury, the planet of communication on 25th August, this has allowed you to know what you want from your relationships and what they need from you from the start.
Meanwhile, as you move into the first full month of the lunar nodes' new focus on a balance between knowing when to keep your work hat on and when to take it off, this is something that you can also benefit from. While the Sun will always spend the first three weeks of August in your work sector and this is always a busy time of year in over a decade, with Jupiter having returned at the end of June to begin your biggest year for job growth and expansion, the year will remain busy.
With Mars returning to a playful and creative part of your chart for the first time in two years on 11th August, knowing when to keep your work hat on and when to take it off couldn't be more important.
While Mars is only here until the end of September, the dwarf planet Ceres will return on 13th August to begin her first deep dive into your heart's needs and priorities in four years and won't leave until May 2027. With Jupiter not leaving your work sector until July 2027 and things set to take an even busier turn in the last three months of this year and the early months of next year, having the lunar nodes here throughout that time couldn't be more important.
Yet while the lunar nodes had been policing a balance between your own and your relationship needs and are now focused on a balance between knowing when to keep your work hat on and when to take it off, this is something that you can carry into other aspects of your life.
