Your Key Dates

  • August 15: Escape the grapevine

  • August 23: Build something sturdier than sandcastles

  • August 30: Make your home feel a little cozier


The year is flying by, but the past few weeks have felt like a lifetime thanks to July’s back-to-back eclipses and Mercury Retrograde. Now, as the cosmic misadventures are beginning to subside, you can finally enjoy the summer. For the first half of August, you’ll want to attend all the spontaneous barbecues, backyard hangs, and beach adventures. You may even find yourself in the middle of some pretty salacious scandals—you’re feeling *pretty* curious under Leo’s radiant sky.


August’s only Full Moon occurs on August 15 when the Moon meets the Sun in a direct opposition. If you’re feeling stuck, this lunation will propel action. You’ve learned a lot over the past few weeks, and under this electric sky, it’s time to put your wheels in motion. Your insatiable desire to reach, grow, and expand is not in vain. Consider new, dynamic ways you can transform your dreams into reality. Onward and upward!

As a Gemini, you’re ruled by Mercury, the fast-moving planet that governs communication, technology, and transportation. But while Gemini is all about output, Virgo (the other zodiac sign affiliated with Mercury) is about input. When the planets start shifting in Virgo during the second half of the month, it’s time to put your money where your mouth is. The new astrological season begins on August 23 as Mars, Venus, and the Sun all meet in this practical earth sign. Focus your energy where it counts.

Mercury and the Moon also slide under Virgo’s domain on August 29 and August 30, helping you identify the areas in your life that can stand to be fine-tuned. If you’ve been treating your home like a literal garbage bin, consider infusing it with a bit of love. Although you’re always on the go, it’s still important to be comfortable in your personal, private zone. Your dwelling is a sanctuary, Gemini babe. You’ll feel more supported if your foundation is solid.
