August 22: Virgo Season begins
Things are getting hot—but that’s okay by you, Aries. In fact, as a fire sign, you prefer when things get a little steamy. The month kicks off with a Full Moon in Aquarius on August 3, with the two luminaries on opposite ends of the sky, aligning through a powerful push-and-pull aspect. The Sun symbolizes your external truth, while the gentle Moon reflects your internal experience. Likewise, during this Full Moon in Aquarius, the celestial bodies will illuminate not just what feeds your soul, but how you can harness your unique Martian energy (astro tip: Aries is governed by Mars) to effect positive, global change. You’ve always wanted to be a superhero—this is your chance to bust out that cape! How will you save the world, Aries? Don’t let the haters bring you down. Under this sky, you won’t have time for pessimistic BS!
Sparks continue to fly throughout the month, forming a fairly sizable flame on August 18, during this year’s only New Moon in Leo. If your energy has been a bit scattered, this is an excellent lunation to bring together disparate forces to create something creative, artistic, and (perhaps most importantly) passionate. Yes, Aries: This is an excellent time for love! Will you finally work up the courage to profess your feels to your long-time crush? With Mercury (the planet of communication) also occupying romantic Leo, all signs point to yes. Be brave, Aries love! This sky is charmed: You have nothing to lose!
Towards the end of the month, you’ll be basking in the sunshine. Life is finally starting to go your way. But…will it last? Your next task is to figure out how you can sustain all that magical goodness. The Sun rolls into Virgo on August 23, kicking off a new astrological season associated with logic, reason, and responsibility. I know what you’re thinking: After the exuberant bravado of Leo season, Virgo’s signature practicality may seem like a real drag.
But don’t worry, Aries: Adding a bit of earth energy into the equation won’t extinguish the flames—it will actually help confine the blaze so that it can turn into a consistent bonfire (perfect for late summer date nights…how fabulous!). As summer comes to a close (what...is...time), consider new ways you can inject a little magic into your daily tasks and responsibilities. The truth is that success (both professional and interpersonal) requires thoughtful strategy and careful consideration. Sure, things may take a wee bit of planning—but given the opportunity, why not turn each and every day into something miraculous? Let your dynamic energy take you to the next level. You got this, champ!
