As you begin the month, the New Moon will bring opportunities to fulfill a personal dream and will be influential for months, but especially in the first week of August.
You've had a period of high spending since June 17th when Mars entered Virgo, but you'll soon see your spending slowly decrease when Mars enters Libra on August 6th.
You may have felt pressure to conform to your partner's views in business or in marriage, but as a Leo, you've never been indecisive. You have what it takes to stand up for yourself, to calmly state your case, and you're likely to win because you can be very persuasive. Uranus was quite positive at that New Moon, so talk things out and stay optimistic, and you could achieve a surprisingly pleasant outcome.
With Mars in Libra after August 6, it could be time to travel and enjoy nature around the time of your birthday. The planets, for the most part, will be extremely friendly to each other at the Full Moon on August 9, so check out the resorts near you and pick one.
A golden triangle will appear, connecting short-distance trips with your friends and your spouse or long-term romantic partner. Each zone will work together, so your friends and romantic partner will want to join you in the fun. It's also possible that a close friend will invite you to spend a weekend at their vacation cottage.
Once you get past August 10, life will improve and you can sign contracts, buy electronics and machinery of all kinds. If you have wisely postponed buying appliances, computers, smartphones and other items that have moving parts inside or electronic chips, you can start buying a week after Mercury goes direct.
On the romantic front, if you're single, you could get lucky with a date recommended by a friend, family member, or business colleague on or around August 11. On this date, get dressed up and go out, Cupid and his band of little cherubs will be circling above you, ready to hit you with their little love arrows.
Venus rules your career, so you'll get some great news that same day, August 11. It could be a promotion or an offer from a competing firm. If you're self-employed, a lucrative new client could come your way.
Money will once again emerge as a major theme on the August 22nd New Moon in Virgo (your income sector), but this time you’ll likely already have a plan in place. This New Moon will strengthen your resolve to put your ideas into action. Building wealth will be a worthy and satisfying goal.
Next month will bring more opportunities to set your financial plan in motion, as the upcoming New Moon will come as a New Moon Solar Eclipse. With such a strong focus of energy, it looks like you will stick to your goal and have a lot to show for your efforts soon. Stay determined, you CAN make more money.
Mars will leave Virgo on August 6th, so use the first few days of August to your full advantage by scheduling important personal or professional meetings.
Your ruling planet, Mercury, has been retrograde in Leo since July 18, but will go direct on August 10. It's likely that some tasks have been rearranged and reassigned during this period. It's August and many people are on vacation. Delays will benefit you, so this is one of those rare times of year when you can take a deep breath, reflect on the past weeks, and move on slowly.
Next month brings eclipses, one in your opposite sign of Pisces and one in Virgo. These eclipses will bring the need to adapt to new circumstances. It will be a time of change and improvement. As much as you can, try to slow down, rest, and relax this month. You will be moving at the speed of light until September.
You are likely to complete a project during the Full Moon in Aquarius on August 9. This Full Moon looks to be quite special and the project will be well-received. You have all the right cosmic support for a promotion, a raise, or praise in the industry for a job well done. If you have been working hard, you will be in the right place for reward near the Full Moon on August 9.
The Moon is void (meaning it is not in contact with any of the planets) on August 9th, so focus on August 8th, a barrage of beautiful aspects will be active. This Full Moon is extraordinary, bringing the kind of harmony rarely seen with a Full Moon. Any day other than August 9th would be good to use, but August 8th is the best of the best.
Uranus will challenge the New Moon on August 22nd from your tenth house of recognition and professional advancement. It seems like this New Moon will focus on your career, but it probably won't bring the news you want to hear. Avoid traveling at this time because you'll need to decide what to do with the news you receive. It may be best to surround yourself with people you trust to understand how to move forward.
On the new moon of August 22, your excellent work on an important project (most likely focused on the digital, scientific or humanitarian sphere) will protect you, thanks to Pluto. If you are interviewing for a job, Mars will challenge Jupiter, so if you feel that the salary offered is not enough to tempt you, keep looking. If you like the job but think the salary is too low, keep negotiating for a better offer. It will be worth the effort.
Venus and Jupiter are planning a meeting on August 12th, which will surely be a highlight of the month for your social life. This is a night for magic, fun, luxury, beauty and friendship. Venus and Jupiter will both be in the sign of Cancer and the transiting Moon will be in Pisces, perfect positions to help you weave a beautiful memory. Plan something special and give yourself a magical night.
