Cancer
On August 11, the full moon in Aquarius pushes you to be confident in your investments. Don’t let others lead you astray, no matter what they say. Use your intuition to guide you through your financial choices. After all, they are yours to make.

Looking back to the past and finding your truth can give you some insight into where you’ll go in the future. A youthful dream could turn into a lucrative business if you let it take flight.

August starts on a tense note when Mars and Uranus connect with the North Node of Destiny on August 1. These energies can cause strain in your business partnerships. They can also make you feel as though you’re not being appreciated by your boss and colleagues.
The Aquarius full moon on the eleventh isn’t great for your career either. This brings a lot of talk about professional change. You might want to pursue a new avenue in your career at this time. It’s also a time to watch out for unexpected unemployment, job shifts and professional changes, any one of which could take a toll on your ego.
The good news is that the Virgo new moon on August 27 marks a powerful new beginning for you that can lead to amazing opportunities, but only if you’re open to them. It’s a time of immense change and growth. However, all of that might be overshadowed by the stress and conflict that’s brewing internally as you navigate these intense energies. The new moon helps to dissipate these inner vibes, allowing you to let go of the negativity within and start fresh.
Prepare yourself to take on each month with your personalized Monthly Horoscope!
Virgo
August is a little tense when it comes to your workload because you want to spend more time away from the office and deal with personal matters and relationships.
The situation should get a lot easier once Mercury enters Virgo and aligns with your sun on August 3. A raise might be in the offing and looking positive when Mercury enters Libra on the twenty-fifth, but you won’t actually discuss it with your boss until the new moon a couple of days later. Even then it might be met with inaction and power struggles. You’ll have to advocate for yourself to get the cash you want.
But before you agree to any amount in the weeks to come, ask a friend, family member, lawyer, adviser or other trusted acquaintance to look over the terms of the contract. Let them help you negotiate. In the end, you have to be happy with the salary you agree to work for because you’ll be locked into that financial bracket for a while.
Libra
The beginning of the month has you rethinking the direction of your career. When Venus enters Leo on August 11, you might want to temporarily leave your current work world and escape into a creative job. Or you might decide that it’s time to step up and become a leader at your job, which might not jibe with your aspirations and goals.
The full moon on the eleventh and Uranus turning retrograde two weeks later give you time to reassess your fortunes and turn a competitor into a collaborator.
The prosperity continues, especially during the new moon on August 27, when you’re feeling especially daring about your investments and focusing on the rewards of taking more risks.
You end the month with some public recognition for your efforts, a sweet payoff on your big professional gamble. The lovely vibrant energy of August has you throwing caution to the wind and taking a leap of faith into a risky financial venture. Don’t second-guess yourself. Use your recent winnings to invest in a bigger project for a much larger return.
Scorpio
There is a lot going on for you regarding money and work this month. The aspects between the Nodes of Destiny and Mars and Uranus on August 1 are encouraging you to seek inventive ways to make more money. Sometimes your bank account seems like a roller coaster, even though you’re aware that finances fluctuate throughout life. Financial security is important to you, so keep track of how much you spend on business and on fun. A budget will help you stay on track when it comes to how you allocate your money.
Work is another complicated situation this month. At the Virgo new moon on the twenty-seventh, you could be inspired to take on a new professional dream. Perhaps you’ll get a promotion or new job or be asked to join a work team. The one thing to look out for with any opportunity is the bottom line.
You won’t want to make friends and forge close relationships when the Uranus retrograde starts on August 24. You’ve had enough of personal partnerships getting in the way of your ability to be an effective leader. Use this energy to set firm boundaries with coworkers and management.
Sagittarius
August is lit for your career, Sagittarius. Mercury moves into Virgo on August 3, giving you a push to set the stage for your next big professional move. This is a time to discuss what you want to achieve in the work realm. You might find opportunities flowing freely, or there could be talk about a job you’d be perfect for. If you have a side hustle, this is an ideal time to level up your game, because you could make a lot of money at this time. If you’re in the running for a raise, speak up and ask for the money you deserve.
By the time Venus enters Leo on the eleventh, it will be easy to manifest what you want regarding your bank account and professional status.
When the sun enters Virgo on August 22, the personal distractions that have been mounting all month could come to a head, but you’ll opt to focus on work.
Be advised that you could take another path if you activate the lower vibrational energy this month. Unfortunately, Neptune could make you want to disconnect from work and head to the beach instead. Don’t let this get in the way of your success. Be bold and daring and you can attain greatness.
Capricorn
August is a great time to consolidate any debt you have. It’s also a wonderful opportunity to take responsibility for your spending habits. The full moon on August 11 urges you to start dealing with any existing credit card debt or loans. It’s always best to address these issues early on, before they reach the boiling point. This also allows you to better understand your financial situation.
The new moon on the twenty-seventh is an ideal time to ask for a raise. Yes, you’ve been working hard, as you always do, but now you have the figures to show your boss when you advocate for a promotion. In true Capricorn style, you never hold back when it comes to speaking up about your career.
The bottom line is that you deserve all the wonderful things that are coming your way, even if your superiors haven’t been taking notice. That’s why you should put it in writing to make sure they know that you’re doing more than your fair share in the office. It’s high time you reaped the benefits of your hard work and attained the success and fortune you deserve.
Aquarius
On August 1, the conjunction between Mars, Uranus, and the North Node of Destiny forces you to get real about any partnerships and contracts that you’re a part of.
Later, on the eleventh, the full moon and the move of Venus into Leo bring tension and stress to any relationships that you developed in the past. You’ll have to find a way to redefine them. Fortunately, the Virgo new moon on August 27 gives you a chance to revive these alliances and start fresh with others.
Be careful about how you proceed, and don’t be too cavalier about how you move forward in your professional ventures. Nothing is a done deal until the contract is signed, sealed and delivered. Wait until the money is in your bank account. You could be inclined to take risks, and you might forget to be humble when Mars is in Gemini as of the twentieth. Don’t let your ego get ahead of you.
Pisces
August could bring a lot of confusion regarding your career’s direction. There are some fated events that take place over the next month that could expand your professional life for years to come.
August 11 brings out the drama that’s been roiling internally when the full moon squares off with the Nodes of Destiny. You might decide to take a different path in your professional realm. This might be the theme of the brutal energy coming to your work life. Consider this your energetic wake-up call. The truth of the matter is that you may not have felt very fulfilled in your career for a while. Now all the energy that’s been brewing within is coming to a head.
When Mercury in Virgo opposes Neptune retrograde in your sign on the twenty-first, you could feel lost on your current path. Finding your new role might be confusing, but it would be worth considering during the new moon in Virgo over the weekend.
