Leo
July 23 – August 22
Leo! In August a lot of you will be choosing to go solo and focus on yourself and your material world. There’s going to be a need and a want to be authentic and not hide who you truly are and how you truly feel! This month you could be tempted to get caught up in tensions and problems between other people around you. The timing of this could be upsetting for you and I do see you holding back and not saying much. You’ll be choosing not to get involved in the drama and instead you might find yourself trying to shift the mood and bring some fun and excitement back into the situation. As much as you try not to get involved in the conflicts around you, some of you could be dealing with a partner or friend that isn’t happy. Someone may feel misunderstood and things may have come to a stalemate between you two. By the end of the month a cycle may be wrapping up or there may be distance created leaving you feeling like you didn’t get what you hoped for out of the situation. Remain positive and trust yourself to navigate through these conflicts as they arise around you Leo!

Virgo
August 23 – September 22
Dearest Virgo, going into this month you may be feeling a little down. There could be something on your mind that’s making it hard to see the positive side to things but the good news is there is clarity heading your way! You’ll come to a point where you’ll see exactly what it is you want and wish for in your life. If you’re currently in a relationship, it could feel like the more dominant partner isn’t taking the lead- or worse- not taking accountability for themselves. Someone here could be choosing to detach while the other has been over-giving in this situation and in return this dynamic has made you unhappy Virgo. In August you may be choosing to take a break from it all. You’re being encouraged to rest so that you can heal through this time. Sleep is also very important this month, get yourself back on a schedule that allows you to be fully rested the following day.

Libra
September 23 – October 22
Libra, you have a lot going on in August! A lot of you may be feeling a loss of spark or passion when it comes to an important foundation in your life. Things may be feeling unstable and you might find yourself feeling tired and worn out from the situation. This is a sign that you may have been overgiving to whatever this is Libra! Whether it’s related to your home or job, your boundaries could have very well been lacking boundaries and you’re now left feeling the repercussions of self-sacrificing your needs in this situation. This month communication and expressing yourself might be a challenge, especially when dealing with a boss or partner that isn’t showing up for their end of the deal. Moving on and getting this situation to a better place may be a challenge during this time. You could possibly find yourself holding back but in doing so this is keeping the energy from expanding and moving forward. You could be lacking trust in starting something new during this time. This will be a good time to step back and allow yourself to rest. Take some time to yourself to relax, this will help you feel more balanced and patient, especially when dealing with people or things that aren’t offering the stability you hoped they would.

Scorpio
October 23 – November 21
Scorpio! This month you may find yourself caught in a repetitive cycle- for many of you, this has to do with work or a creative opportunity of some sort. Staying positive will be key in this situation even though some of you may be procrastinating or stalling in some way. If you happen to be invited out to a gathering, by all means, say YES if you can Scorpio! This will be a good opportunity to get out of your surroundings and have some fun! It’ll work wonders for your mental health as well. This month your mind is heavily focused on the area where you feel you’re lacking stability and commitment. You’ll be focused on coming up with the smartest way forward through this situation. You’re being very logical and practical, coming up with ideas as to how to improve your current situation. For some, this could be related to financial stability and for others, it could be coming to terms and understanding someone’s role and commitment to a certain situation. Things could feel slightly uncomfortable when it comes to reprioritizing the things that are most important to you. You may be asking yourself what needs your attention and energy the most- for some of you that might mean prioritizing time with children and putting other tasks on the back burner. This will require you to be flexible and let go of control a bit, allowing yourself to go with the flow more freely. Don’t expect any major changes or decisions to be made in August Scorpio, this is a time to reconnect to your feelings and not a time for many actions.

Sagittarius
November 22 – December 21
Dearest Sagittarius! This month some of you could be learning something new at work or getting to know someone better! This does come with losing sleep and possibly even having racing thoughts about this situation- maybe some of you will be up late at night thinking over your day and what could have gone better. For some of you, the stress over this opportunity is worrying you to the point that you might be emotionally blocked off from it. If this is the case, this might be a sign that there’s a negative coping mechanism that you might be reverting to that is keeping you feeling trapped in place. Whether that’s in the form of negative self-thoughts or other self-imposed behaviors that might be keeping you from feeling good and emotionally content in this situation. Don’t expect too much forward movement this month, it seems like you’re waiting for something else to come in and line up before you can make any moves. There could be something in the distance that brings an opportunity for growth- but there is a wait before you can get there. You might have moments where you feel like being in boss mode and keeping control over your life and responsibilities is keeping you from paying attention and manifesting the things you truly want in your life. This month you’ll be thinking about your priorities and all the things you have going on and what deserves what level of energy and attention from you. There may not seem like there’s much movement forward at the time being and that may be true, but this is happening to purposely slow you down so you can see things from a different perspective.

Capricorn
December 22 – January 19
Capricorn this month you’ll be feeling the need to move forward. For some, this could be an actual move, but for most this is an energetic shift forward. There’s something that hasn’t been emotionally fulfilling you for a while but you’re not ready to walk away just yet. Maybe this is the situation where you’re ready to experience an energetic shift. If you’ve recently hit a hard time of some sort be it financial or health-wise- this does seem to be getting better in August. It seems like things will be slowing down and not much will be happening beyond what’s already occurred. There’s a chapter coming to an end, this doesn’t seem to be something abrupt- there could have been planning or a knowing this was coming- even so, you might be feeling powerless or lacking confidence in what this shift will bring. When it comes to your home there could be a delay in starting something new, perhaps there’s a lack of trust and you might feel like avoiding this new venture is best for the time being. Some of you may find it difficult to speak up and express your thoughts on this situation choosing to remain silent instead. By the end of the month, a lot of you will decide you’re not losing sleep over this anymore and you won’t be making any major decisions anytime soon.

Aquarius
January 20 – February 18
Dearest Aquarians! This month many of you may be feeling the effects of burnout. You could have been overgiving to a situation where boundaries haven’t been drawn and in return, it may have come at the cost of your own well-being. It’s time to prioritize yourself in your own life Aquas! There are a lot of unknowns in life but in your case Aquarius, this month those unknowns are creating fears that could be taking your spark, passion, and motivation away. At times you may even feel like you want to give up! These are all signs of exhaustion and burnout. Make sure to recognize if this is you and allow yourself the time and space to rest and put up some boundaries if necessary. It’s time to gain a new perspective Aquarius and the only way to do that is going to be by slowing down and allowing yourself to look at the bigger picture. Take time to yourself to heal, put up boundaries and reprioritize yourself again. Get back in touch with people and things that replenish you. You have the power to decide which direction to go in, some of you could be faced with the reality that not much is moving forward until you make a decision that needs to be made. You could be struggling with closing out a chapter that’s ready to come to an end but you may not feel ready to move on just yet.

Pisces
February 19 – March 20
Pisces! This month you’ll be feeling strong, confident, and passionate going after the things that you want! Because you’ll be in this strong sensual and creative energy, there may be someone around you that is feeling less than and maybe even a little jealous that they aren’t getting you to themselves or getting as much of your attention as they would like. This might hit on their confidence and they could be expressing or rather- showing- how they’re feeling about it! You might be planning a date where you’re going to experience something new together but if plans fall through you’ll probably be seeing how affected this person will be. You may be called to get going with a backup plan or try to bring up an exciting alternative trying to tame the situation and smooth it over. There might even be a realization that you need to slow yourself down when presenting ideas and wanting to create action and movement before everything is well thought out. If this is the case, you’ll be learning and gaining clarity from this situation. This might even change the way in which you approach decisions and plans in the future!

Aries! In August there might be a foundation in your life that isn’t feeling as stable as you would like- this could be a relationship, job, or something in regards to your home. Whatever the case may be and as hard as you may have tried to disconnect or avoid it all together- it seems that things are reaching a point where certain issues and fears will have to be addressed. A lot of you will find yourselves very reflective this month, coming up with very practical plans and taking methodical steps to get you going in the right direction. Regardless of any painful memories from the past that may try to surface during this planning stage, I see you defending your plan and fighting for your independence in this situation. You’re working hard for what you have and you’re not backing down now! For some of you, when it comes to work you may not be feeling like you’re getting the recognition or attention you deserve after everything you’ve done and you may be a little let down by this. Don’t let this energy linger for too long Aries, keep focused, and do you!

April 20 – May 20
Dearest Taurus! There seems to be a past love you just can’t seem to forget about! Whether this is a person, place, or thing- it seems like you just can’t shake it this month! You could find yourself missing a father figure or a person that made you feel safe and provided for at some point. A lot of Taurus will be choosing to keep control of the situation and their emotions. You may choose to disconnect and block off what your intuition may be trying to guide you to pay attention to, feeling that now is not the time to be getting caught up in your emotions. This may all be going on deep within you Taurus, you may not even be letting anyone know about this! Your mind’s made up and you’re making decisions with your head and not your heart at the moment. There is a lot of love, care, and understanding this month. You may even find yourself feeling a little back and forth when it comes to managing love and work regardless of where you’re trying to pull your attention to! By the end of the month, you’ll be gaining enlightenment and a new perspective on how to bring fairness and justice back into a situation and may be choosing to block communication with a certain someone.

May 21 – June 20
Gemini this month is so powerful for you! You’ll be feeling a boost of confidence, some of you could even find yourselves living out your childhood dream! There seems to be a strong connection to something or someone from the past, feelings of nostalgia and love will be coming up for you during this time. You’ll also be consciously releasing something toxic that could have been affecting your job or home life, a lot of you will be taking control and choosing to close chapters and end cycles that are no longer serving your growth. In August Gemini will be speaking their truth with clarity and intention! You’ll be taking control and it will be known to those around you. There may be something unexpected that comes up this month that tests your reaction, but I see you handling it with grace and ease not missing a stride. You’ll be in full-on manifesting mode (probably from all that talking and communicating you’ll be doing this month!), using all of your available resources to call in whatever it is you want. For those of you that are manifesting a new contract, or a situation that involves the legal system- I see a fair resolution to that. Even if it’s not exactly as you planned- it will be fair. For some Gemini’s, this newfound energy you’re currently in will draw back a past partner, someone that you’re currently disconnected from could be coming back for another chance. I see you’ll have the upper hand here Gemini, you seem to have other options besides this partnership! Whatever you choose to do, it looks like you’ll be prioritizing yourself this month.

June 21 – July 22
Dear Cancer friends! In August a lot of you may find yourselves preparing for something that is wrapping up and coming to an end. There will be some blocks and resistance that come up when it comes to closing this chapter out. You may find you’re outright not happy with the changes that are about to happen and you’re not ready to leave yet- you’re being reminded to be patient during this time. There are some self-soothing mechanisms you hold within you that can help you during this time of resistant change, you’ve been here before and it’s important to remember that. New beginnings take time and this is no different Cancer! Don’t be surprised if you experience an emotional purge this month- there may be some stored feelings that need to be released in order to move forward. August will be a time for rest and healing. You could find yourself taking a break from your normal routine. Take this time to heal so that things can come back into fairness and balance for you! If you have a partner, they will be showing up for you in every way you need them to this month. Lean into this relationship to help you through this emotional cleanse. If you don’t have a partner this will be a time to balance your masculine and feminine energies to help guide you and grow through this transition.
