Ram
With the Sun transiting your 5th house, the house of hobbies and creativity, a month of excitement, leisure, and happiness awaits you, but also plenty of motivation and productivity – that work-life balance that doesn't always fall into our laps. Take advantage of the Full Moon in Aquarius, the sign of optimism, and the fact that your ruling planet, Mars, is in a favorable aspect with Jupiter, bringing luck and hope for what you most desire. Make sure everything is organized by August 23rd, as the start of Mercury Retrograde may make it more difficult to start or complete new routines.

Bull
Venus, your ruling planet, is in retrograde motion, so it's important that you pay attention to your needs and be kind to yourself. The start of Virgo season , on the 23rd, impacts your house of pleasure and romance, so the energy will be more airy – and don't let retrograde Mercury spoil the good vibes . It's all about embracing the unpredictable and knowing how to have fun, even amidst the chaos.

Twins
We start the month well, with the Full Moon in Aquarius, a sign of the same element as Gemini, reminding you that there are no limits to what you dream or desire and that anything is possible. Inspiration for achievement may even be greater from the 9th onwards, with your planet, Mercury, aligning with Jupiter, the planet of luck, confidence, faith, and optimism. Take advantage of the New Moon in Leo to assimilate all this energy and define your intentions and an action plan towards achieving what you most desire – consider this ritual as a lifeline during Mercury Retrograde.

Crab
The Full Moon in Aquarius, and the Sun and retrograde Venus in your 2nd house, make finances and personal values the focus at the beginning of August. Take advantage of this time to clarify financial matters, but also anything involving confidence and self-esteem. If you feel there's a challenge to overcome, nothing beats the energy of the New Moon on the 16th to plan and face it. The arrival of Virgo season attacks your 3rd house, the house of communication, so prepare for nonstop requests. But… Mercury Retrograde begins on the same day, so double-checking is key to make sure what you say and the things you schedule make sense.

Happy season! Energy and confidence are on your side, even with Venus Retrograde in your sign. Nothing can stop you, and it's good that you take advantage of the Full Moon, which shines in the house of relationships and partnerships, to reassess those who don't let your individuality shine through – something so important for your sign. The New Moon in Leo, joining the Sun and Venus Retrograde also in your sign, makes this month even more special and asks you to follow your intuition in the coming month, so that everything unfolds as you most desire. Entering Virgo season and Mercury Retrograde is like the end of the good life, and you will have to face responsibilities and the more serious side of life with some attention.

Virgin
Time to relax before your birthday. Take advantage of the Full Moon in Aquarius, an Air sign, to incorporate more freedom into your daily life and stop clinging so tightly to the rules and seriousness typical of a Virgo. The New Moon will be ideal for some me time and for reconnecting with your more intimate and spiritual side, just in time to celebrate another year. With the Sun shining in your sign next month, you can embrace extra confidence and fun.

Balance
You hardly need to worry about your planet, Venus, being in retrograde, as Leo's energy is strongly fueling your social life. The Full Moon shines in your 5th house, so anything involving embracing your creativity and authenticity is welcome. The Virgo season is arriving more calmly, with the sun in your 12th house activating your more introspective side. Resting, relaxing, and spending time with yourself is all you need after a hyper-social end to summer. But it's also true that Mars enters your sign on August 27th, igniting your ambition and initiative, all under another Full Moon. Perfect for refining work routines and finding balance with your personal life.

Scorpio
Although Leo's energy is illuminating your professional sector, the Full Moon in Aquarius suggests you focus on your private life, taking advantage of the synergy between your ruling planet, Mars, and Jupiter, the planet of luck and hope. You will have the necessary energy to make possible positive adjustments in this dimension. With the arrival of Virgo season, the focus will be on your social life, increasing your need to surround yourself with a nurturing community. The New Moon in Pisces could be inspiring and give you the necessary attention for the development of creative projects.

Sagittarius
Whether it's due to the Full Moon in your house of communication, or your planet, Jupiter, being in synergy with the motivation of Mars, this beginning of the month is full of energy, inspiration, and ideas. The Virgo season illuminates the professional and public life sectors, making it the ideal time to focus on projects you have in hand and organize future plans (to be put into practice after Mercury Retrograde). The month ends with the Full Moon in Pisces and calls for you to do an emotional check-up – what you feel, with whom you share your personal life, your space, your desires, and your boundaries.

Capricorn
The month begins with the Full Moon shining brightly in the 2nd house, the house of finances and the material world. It's ideal for reflecting on what's important to you in this area and, perhaps, renewing strategies. The New Moon, in mid-August, falls in the intimate 8th house, inviting you to rethink your personal limits and how aligned they are with your most authentic desires. This emotional "weight" will be relieved with the arrival of Virgo season, offering Capricorns inspiration and freshness. Late summer adventures, being more flexible and guided by your enthusiasm – all this is more than welcome! The end of the month also promises some excitement in the professional sector, with Mars passing through there.

Aquarium
You begin the month with a Full Moon in your sign, urging you to let yourself shine, without hesitation due to others' expectations of you. The movements of Venus, the planet of romance, align with those of your planet, Uranus, potentially bringing some new perspectives on emotional values. You can and should take advantage of the New Moon in Leo to reflect on this theme and potentially find inspiration in this area of your life. On the 28th, your planet, Uranus, begins its retrograde motion, the right phase to process the twists and turns of life in recent times.

Start the month with a Full Moon ritual that allows you to escape from work and daily life. Leo season focuses on your productivity, but retrograde Venus may raise questions about how and where you are investing valuable time and energy. The New Moon on the 16th promises to give you clarity to draw your conclusions. With the Sun entering Virgo, the focus will be (even more so) on your relationships, but retrograde Mercury may destabilize the situation. Remember to control your sensitivity and try not to take everything so personally. The end of the month, with the Full Moon in your sign, is the perfect conclusion – no one has more power than you to guide your life, and it's good that everyone (including yourself) is very sure of that!
