August 2026

 

This month starts the return of the two eclipses (they always come in pairs, every six months) Solar eclipses open the door to something new, and this one will be quite nice for most of us. Fortunately, Jupiter and Mercury make a strong presence orbiting closely with the Sun and the new Moon, and this bodes very well for a happy new beginning in communication during this eclipse.

 The New Moon (total solar eclipse) on August 12th occurs in Leo and the Full Moon (Lunar eclipse) on August 28th is in Pisces. Mercury will go through 3 signs this month, in Cancer until August 9, in Leo until August 25 and then in Virgo. Mars is in Gemini until August 11 and then it will be in Cancer until September 28. From August 8th through September 10, Venus is in Libra.  Jupiter is in Leo until July 26th, 2027. Saturn retrogrades in Aries until December 9. Uranus is direct in Gemini. Pluto retrogrades in Aquarius and Neptune retrogrades in Aries.

We want to clarify our daily and monthly horoscopes are general for all zodiac signs and do not take into account of your personal natal chart.  For a personal reading click here

AQUARIUS:  On August 12, the New Moon in Leo, associated with a solar eclipse, will strengthen fulfilling and balanced relationships, but also risks weakening fragile or exhausting bonds.You might have quite a few passionate arguments with partners of all sorts during this eclipse period, but they will only serve to bring you closer.     

                              

Passion is the word as debates get heated. This is what I mean by the ‘shot’ in the arm mentioned earlier, it might be just what is needed to revive stagnant relationships.   

Solar Eclipses get things moving again in relationships, for better or worse, so it can make one partner brave enough to move out of the relationship if it was just going nowhere. This is liberating no matter how you look at it.

 

Jupiter has now set up shop in your seventh solar house of marriage and partnership, making Aquarius the sign most likely to marry in 2026-2027 or to gain from business-based collaborations.

With Jupiter touring your seventh solar house of marriage, you could not have chosen a better time—in fact is the sign most likely to wed happily now or soon. Not ready yet? You will have a full year to tie the knot, until late July 2027.                                                                                                 

If you are already wed, you will likely hear good news from your mate this month. His or her favorable news will benefit you too, so you both have reason to celebrate. You gain from partners (of all kinds) on this cycle until late July, 2027. This applies to enemies, opponents and rivals as well.

​

It’s irrelevant if you are caught in an endless legal battle or marooned in a prolonged state of warfare for some other reason. This is an odd cycle.                                                                               

It’s as much about a happy marriage as it is about a feud. Who is on the other end of the scales? That’s your answer. Jupiter in Leo gives you one solution after another.

 

From August 7th thru September 10, Venus sails into Libra, your ninth solar house. this period can signify a long and enjoyable pleasure trip. You will derive the most benefit from a trip to a place you have never seen before, where you can encounter something totally new.                   

This is a fine time for a vacation. Your experience may be broadened through a loved one who shows you new things. Or something may happen that will teach you more about your relationship, not to disturb you but to increase your insight.

 

Work/Money: Your lifestyle is changing, under this Full Moon (lunar eclipse) in Pisces on August 28. It activates your second solar house of resources and income, which may correspond with the end of a long-term job or contract… or the beginning of a new role.                                  

Otherwise, you might start to reconsider what you do for a living or create a plan for entering a field that feels more authentic in the future.

This lunation could also shine a spotlight on your talents and gifts in a way that boosts your confidence or gains you some of the recognition you’ve been craving.                                              

You could also make a major purchase or pay down some debt, lifting a weight off your shoulders.

 

From August 12th – September 28, Mars sails into Cancer, your sixth solar house of work.  Mars is the planet of passion and the warrior planet of the cosmos and when he returns to your work sector once every other year, he kicks off some of the busiest weeks of that year. Whether on the job front or with anything that keeps you busy or occupied, expect the pace to pick up, with Mars a planet that encourages you to make things happen and get things done. 

From the get go Mars links up with planets on the income front, giving you a lucrative sense of direction from the get go, but also an awareness of where you are putting your time and energy.

Remember, if you don’t work, this also applies to your regular lifestyle and routine at home. Willpower is power.
