Welcome to August, Taurus. This month brings a culmination in your career despite the onset of Mercury retrograde. During July, Neptune retrograde lifted the veil on any fake friendships. Now that the dust has settled in that regard, your primary task is to enjoy the abundant love around you.
The stars are busy on Sunday, August 4. Your ruling planet, sweet Venus, moves into your vibrant 5th House of Pleasure. However, also on this day, Mercury begins its retrograde. Plus, there’s a new moon, the lunation associated with fresh starts, in your cozy 4th House. The takeaway from all of this? Do something that feels good—ideally, in the spirit of the new moon, something you’ve never done before, like enjoying a new body oil or an at-home facial. Who knows: You might enjoy it so much that you want to make it part of your regular routine. When Juno, the asteroid of commitment, moves into your wellness-oriented 6th House of Health on Friday, August 9, you have ongoing health in mind. Juno’s entry into your 6th House is also an important reminder that taking care of yourself should be a continuing practice. Pushing yourself always backfires and makes you less productive in the long run.
Be extra mindful to avoid confrontations and miscommunications with family, roommates, or live-in partners when Mercury retrograde moves into proud Leo, falling in your 4th House of Home and Family, on Wednesday, August 14. Remember that Mercury retrograde comes for all of us, so try to practice extra patience around this time and prepare for lots of self-soothing to avoid saying anything you regret later.
Despite the influence of Mercury retrograde, there’s a decent chance that you’ll receive welcome career news when the sky lights up with a full moon in Aquarius and your 10th House of Social Status on Monday, August 19. While full moons can be a bit anxious, they also are times of manifestation. While you may want to keep an eye on your phone and inbox during work hours, remember to log off and even turn on Do Not Disturb when it’s time to start unwinding to ensure you get plenty of sleep.
The sun moves into bustling Virgo, kicking off Virgo season, on Thursday, August 22. The Virgo stereotypes are of a detail-oriented perfectionist. While you may indeed have a satisfyingly productive Virgo season, know that the sun is in your pleasurable 5th House during this time. It’s a reminder that you’re most productive when you feel cared for and rested. You’re a very luxurious sign, Taurus. Enjoying comfort is part of who you are, and there’s absolutely nothing wrong with that. When Vesta, the asteroid of spirituality, moves into your 5th House on Saturday, August 24, the stars remind you that you’re at your most divine when you feel pampered.
