Happy August, Libra. Grab your tarot cards; it’s a super psychic month. During July, you fell in love even harder, if that’s possible, with your chosen family. Of course, plenty of Libras want or already have children or long-term romantic partners, but if you don’t—that’s okay! Friends are one hundred percent as, if not more, important. You find yourself thinking over such heady topics when your ruling planet, loving Venus, stations into your intuitive 12th House of the Unconscious on Sunday, August 4.
No matter how progressive you think you are, societal expectations and heteronormativity come for all of us. When intellectual Mercury begins one of its infamous retrogrades on Sunday, August 4, your focus shouldn’t be the usual travel delays or communication mishaps. Instead, see this retrograde as an opportunity to examine the limitations you have, perhaps unknowingly, imposed on yourself. Also on Sunday, August 4, there’s a new moon, the lunation associated with fresh starts, in your 11th House of Friendship. Understand this is an opportunity to recommit yourself to your favorite people. Treat your friends like family; after all, they truly are.
You might be in a confusing point in your life right now. Perhaps you have Charli XCX‘s “I think about it all the time” on repeat while you contemplate parenthood or if you want to define a romantic relationship. Know that when Juno, the asteroid of commitment, moves into your sign on Friday, August 9, you’ll get some clarity. And, by the way, this period doesn’t need to get too heavy. August is the last month of summer. You should be having fun. Get out of your head by spending time with friends. Just be patient with others and yourself, as Mercury retrograde moves into your communal 11th House on Wednesday, August 14, so people showing up late to plans isn’t so much the exception as it is the norm.
Mark the Aquarius full moon on Monday, August 19, down in your calendar. It lights up your super pleasurable 5th House. It’s a night for passionate sex or to enjoy a sex toy (with a partner or instead of one!). Just know that full moons are emotional, primal times, so fights may occur. It’s totally okay to focus on communicating, well, with your body instead of your brain, to avoid confrontations you regret later.
When Virgo season begins on Thursday, August 22, the sun lights up your intuitive 12th House. You might want to keep a dream journal by your bed in order to jot down your dreams as soon as you wake up: The more you write them down, the better you’ll remember them. Also, on Thursday, August 22, your ruling planet, Venus, squares (a challenging aspect) hot-headed Mars. This could stir up some relationship drama. Offset this by focusing on relaxing, meditating, or whatever helps you tap into your place of calm to avoid saying things you regret later.
