Your Aquarius monthly horoscope for August 2025
You're telling it like it is once Mars moves into Libra on 6 August. You'll need to set more boundaries over the next few weeks, but speaking your truth never felt so good. You might also spend more time working on a writing project or learning something new. You're not shying away from debates about your worldview either, but sharing your beliefs can help change others perspectives.
Conversations are full of drama and disappointment when Mars in Libra faces off with Saturn in Aries on 8 August. It might feel like there is no winner and you've reached a stalemate. You could also receive a 'no' when you were hoping for a "yes," or face an unavoidable (but temporary!) roadblock or setback.
There's a Full Moon, in your sign, on 9 August that encourages you to start fresh. You're ready to release old versions of yourself and embody the most authentic version of yourself possible. This can also bring major shake-ups and changes to your one-on-one relationships. And, for some, they could reach a personal goal they set for themselves earlier in the year.
Relationship drama begins to settle once Mercury retrograde in Leo ends on 11 August. If an ex re-entered your life, you're ready to decide whether or not they're worthy of your time. This can also help you get back on the same page as a lover or decide whether you should stay or go. Business relationships and collaborative projects also begin to pick up speed once again.
On the same day, Venus and Jupiter, the two luckiest planets in the sky meet up in Cancer. You could receive long overdue recognition for some of your hard work. Maybe you come up with a solution to one of your problems or you just feel more in flow and grateful for your daily life and schedule. You're feeling grateful for all the little things in your life and that can open you up to more blessings in your life.
You're acting on some of your ideas and plans when Mercury in Leo teams up with Mars in Libra on 14 August. This can be a fun day to make plans with a lover, book travel with a BFF, or even negotiate a new collaborative project.
The Sun enters Virgo on 22 August, and you're in a more introspective mood. The next few weeks can bring up some of the feelings you tend to avoid, but you're ready to do some inner healing work. Financially, you're ready to have some important conversations with lovers, roommates, or business partners about expenses and who pays for what. Some relationships grow deeper, on the same day, under the new moon in Virgo. You're exploring themes of trust and vulnerability and opening up. New financial opportunities or contracts can also enter your orbit.
There's more of an emphasis on your love life once Venus moves into Leo on 25 August. Maybe you're on Cloud 9 with a lover or you meet someone with potential. First, you'll have to deal with feelings of jealousy and power struggles in your relationships when Venus in Leo stares down Pluto in Aquarius on 26 August. Uncomfortable conversations with lovers, family members, roommates, or BFFs might be necessary, but setting boundaries can set you free.
The month wraps up with some unexpected news that leaves you feeling hopeful when Uranus in Gemini connects with Neptune in Aries on 28 August. You could also come up with a new idea that you're excited about or experience a positive shift in your own mindset.

Your horoscope for the week ending 3rd August is asking you to express how you feel
After last week's drama, you could use a dose of TLC, so think of the upcoming days as your cosmic first aid kit — it's time to mend and heal those battle wounds. Venus dives into Cancer on 30th July, making us more sentimental and empathetic to others. On 31st July, the Sun connects with Mercury Retrograde in Leo, strengthening our communication and decisions. This is the best day of Mercury's moonwalk to make plans and to have conversations. Venus squares Saturn Retrograde and Neptune Retrograde in Aries on 1st August, pushing us to be limiting and unconditional with our emotions. These two energies juxtapose each other, so we might be up and down and all around in the way we express ourselves or feel. Keep on reading for how the astrological events of this week will impact your Sun, Moon, and Rising signs. You are the type of ram that likes to make things happen on the fly. However, the days ahead might be un-motivating to your tenacious spirit, urging you to be uninspired. Even the most rambunctious of us all require time to recalibrate, and this is your week to do so. Do not get too caught up in a daydream or your emotions that you get whisked away in the vision. Remember to place one foot on solid ground to ensure you can keep up with your responsibilities, even if they seem trivial and burdensome at this particular juncture in time. When was your last holiday? You are in desperate need of a break from work and life, so plan a local trip to escape the mundane. Use this time to unwind and relieve tensions. You should do you and spend your days away from your inbox to relish the moment. Even though you may not be successful when you shoot your shot at asking for a raise, it'll get the ball rolling for the future. Consider this your chance to let management know how fabulous you are and why you deserve a pay increase. They might even meet you halfway. You bring the good vibes to the party, which is why you're the first invite sent out. Mercury is moonwalking on your Sun, so you might want to leave the festivities early after posting a few selfies to decompress. Put your needs above anything, even if you have FOMO. Quit hiding behind your fear of being unliked. Let people know that their actions are upsetting to you. The more direct and confrontational you are, the easier your problems will be to remedy and cultivate deeper relationships. Now, you can be assertive and stand up without worrying about the outcome. You are in a love bubble with your boo that no one can seemingly interrupt. The world begins and ends with them, so your focus is on making your partner happy. As long as you get what you're giving before you cry out for fairness, the ship will remain intact. You might be in a little bit of a daze when organising and taking care of chores, but that doesn't mean you won't have fun while doing so. A deep cleaning to switch up the stagnant energy in your house will add pep and power to your step this week. Who says you can't have your cake and eat it too? As long as you are real with the desired results from impractical creative ventures, you can take on other things that will brighten your artistry and work. Understand your limits and remain in the know about the honest feedback. It seems as though everyone has an opinion about your life and isn't telling you to your face. If people want to be shady and talk behind your back, then that is on them. A true friend stabs you in the front with honesty. They don't act in unkind ways. You're not the reason why the rumours started, but you aren't helping them die down. Before repeating the tea, think about how it'll affect your friend. You wouldn't want to be in their situation, so have compassion and squash the gossip in its tracks to ensure your bestie isn't hurt. Be aware of your spending habits this week. Money comes and goes, and you will feel the stress and burn of not having enough to hang with your pals. A budgeted life is doable if you curb your shopping and Uber Eats habit.

Daily Horoscope for July 28, 2025
General Daily Insight for July 28, 2025 We're filling our cups and pouring into others. With loving Venus working to assist sore Chiron at 12:55 pm EDT, grudges can melt away, equilibrium can return, and compassionate people can enter our lives. The precise Moon then joins with exciting Mars, encouraging us to give back with passion and instinctual know-how. Finally, the Moon struggles against balanced Venus, making it difficult to accept shifting circumstances. Just because healing might be unfamiliar to us doesn't mean we should reject it. Let's let balance blossom. Aries March 21 – April 19 You're learning how to be kinder to yourself. This will be especially impactful for Rams who typically burn the candle at both ends, choosing to leave sleep or self-care in last place on the to-do list. Today is asking that you prioritize your health and well-being. If you thought about yourself as if you were someone else, would you be happy with the way that you were treating that person? Treat yourself as if you were your friend, not your enemy. Taurus April 20 – May 20 Combining intuition and logic is very possible. It might feel risky to let your soul guide you, as you may have rationally decided that another path is better for you. Still, your intuition could truly be calling you somewhere else. Instead of feeling like you have to pick one or the other, use both your head and your heart as you ponder your future. Make an effort to let both have their say before making anything official. Reason and inspiration can walk together. Gemini May 21 – June 20 You may be realizing that a friend group is not for you — even if they initially seemed like they checked all the right boxes. Getting to know the team could show you how your preferences don't quite align in the ways that you'd hoped. It's okay to have tried to get along with a group of people, and then realized that their company isn't the kind of company you want to keep. You will find the right group for you. Cancer June 21 – July 22 The public reaction to your healing journey could be mixed. Some people might be thrilled for you, wanting to lift you up even more, while others might be jealous of your growth compared to their stagnation, attempting to drag you back down. You can identify these people by their reactions. Watch for those who are audibly happy for you, in contrast to those who downplay your achievements or ignore your hard work. Be kind, but step back from those who aren't happy for you. Leo July 23 – August 22 Knowledge is power. You might be seeking updated research as you study yourself or a subject that interests you, expanding your mind and providing yourself with refreshing opportunities. However, this could cause you to feel uncertain, as you may have to discard old, faulty knowledge and replace it with what you are learning now. Before abruptly tossing out everything you knew, be discerning, because you shouldn't believe everything that crosses your desk. Memorizing untrue details won't help anyone, so check the facts first. Virgo August 23 – September 22 Your emotions could be running high due to a lack of rest. Make a point of paying attention to what your emotions are telling you right now, especially if you've been repressing them as you handle your responsibilities. Pushing your soul down for too long can lead it to explode out of you without warning, so finding a balance between rest and work is vital. Instead of feeling like you have to be productive 24/7, remind yourself that you're only human. You need rest, too. Libra September 23 – October 22 You might not understand why you're feeling what you're feeling. Explaining your emotions to others will be particularly tough, because you may not be certain what you're feeling yourself. There may be those who will try to drag an answer out of you even though you're not ready to provide one. It's okay to be unsure! Don't let anyone force you to provide an answer when you're not ready to give one. Continue to look inward and understand yourself before trying to organize your words. Scorpio October 23 – November 21 Not all burdens are necessary for your future. You may have technically been able to set them down a long time ago, but continued to hold them because you were scared to put them down. Additionally, others potentially demanded that you keep clutching these pains, insisting that you would be betraying them if you chose to move on. The truth is, you're forgiving the past so that you can grow, or choosing to release historic stress over what you can't control. Choose healing. Sagittarius November 22 – December 21 You're providing yourself with the freedom others didn't give you. You might have been seeking the approval of other people before, but now, you're at a point in your life where you are no longer asking for permission. You're taking charge! Being your authentic self is incredibly brave. Even if the idea of showing the world who you are is intimidating, you have the strength to do it. Find a balance between what makes you feel alive and what makes you feel safe. Capricorn December 22 – January 19 Change is coming, Capricorn! Of course, you don't have to change everything about your life. Still, you may want to bring elements of something you've recently learned about into your everyday routine. It could be how other cultures live, how other people in your life behave, or even how you wanted to act when you were younger. These lifestyles may inspire you to adopt their ideas. Don't worry — instead of changing everything all at once, you're being asked to move slowly. Baby steps! Aquarius January 20 – February 18 You're shedding your old skin. When a style stops resonating with you, there's no need to force yourself to keep wearing it! Get creative with how you express yourself, and don't feel like you have to be tied down to aesthetics you represented before. While present culture might encourage you to have a solid 'brand,' this might be too much of a box for you to stay inside. Getting a haircut or wearing an unfamiliar outfit can be more freeing than you'd think. Pisces February 19 – March 20 You might feel caught between two ways of being. One side of you may want to be bold, intrepid, and explorative, while the other side craves tradition, coziness, and security. There's likely a way to fulfill both sides, even though this could seem paradoxical. You can slowly introduce new and interesting ways of living your life, while honoring age-old traditions and important family memories. Don't feel as though you have to completely let go of the past to be a part of the future.
