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.

TAURUS:  On August 12, the landmark New Moon (solar eclipse) in Leo opens a bold new chapter in your fourth solar house of home. You could buy or sell a home, expand your family or turn over a new leaf with your nearest and dearest. Compassion is restored and you're able to approach them diplomatically once again.

 

There could be some long-overdue changes at Home, but you'll finally have the drive to get them underway. From renovating to relocating, this turbo-charged new moon opens a providential six-month window to refresh your personal life. This new cycle of eclipses in Leo focus on home and family will remain until March 2028.

​

Don't forget that you also have Jupiter in Leo until late July 2027.Your home is certainly where your heart will be this month, now that Jupiter, the supremely beneficial planet, has moved into your home sector for the coming year.                                           

Indeed, you will increasingly find that your home will be your luckiest and happiest place for you. If you need to move, you will find yourself at the right place at the right time, and this will be true for you whether you want to buy, sell, or rent property.

 

If you experienced a costly period in July, with Mars entering Gemini on July 1st, be aware that Mars will leave this sign on August 11th. This difficult period will therefore soon end.

 

On August 12, Mars will enter Cancer and stay there until September 28. You may feel to move and shake other people and situations during this cycle. Short trips, and the way you get around town may bring issues during this cycle. Cars, planes, trains, buses, motorbikes, bicycles, taxis, domestic flights – all of that! 

 

Your third solar house of communication (also cousins, brothers, sisters and short trips) it’s really about taking action during this August and in September. These energies can be good or bad, all depends how you will handle it!  Just watch a tendency to be argumentative or confrontational.                                                                                                                                             

This is also may apply to general communication, the media, the web, the written and spoken word, and the messages you need to get out there. Be careful what you say and what you write until the end of September.

 

On August 28, the Pisces Full Moon (lunar eclipse) electrifies your teamwork zone, coaxing emerging collaborations to fruition. There's strength in numbers, especially for the two weeks following this full moon, so round up your high-vibe tribe. You may see the culmination of a cooperative effort in September or finally solidify your standing within a group.                             

Not feeling like you fit in anymore? Start searching in earnest for your new crew. A digital or technology-based project could also take flight.

 

Work: From August 7th thru September 11, beautifying Venus (your ruler) sails into Libra and in your sixth solar house. This influence is good for all matters relating to your work or profession. In your relationships it may be necessary to confront difficulties that you have not handled earlier. You are willing to work with others to resolve any difficulties that may arise.    You may gain financial or other favors, quite unexpectedly, from your employer.                      

Single Taurus could actually meet someone through your healthy activities or at the work.  

 

Pluto in your solar tenth house, announces a shift in the balance of power from this month thru March 2028. Some of you will be laid off, placed on furlough, or forced to seek employment, training, or unpaid work.                                                                                        You could be one of these people, but only if Pluto decides the time is right.                      

 

Pluto's only role is to go further, and you will have the strength to do so. Career dips during this period tend to be upswings in disguise: the feeling of empowerment will be real, but the way your destiny is reshaped at that moment will take you to greater heights.
