Your month will be starting on a social note as the full moon in Aquarius dazzles the sky on August 1. You’re a natural-born innovator, and this comes out the most when you’re among like-minded people. This day is revealing to you the ways you seek to stand out from your peers while still feeling like part of a community, making this an optimal day for socializing. Although you can sometimes be a bit of a lone wolf, you benefit greatly from surrounding yourself with people who accept you authentically – flaws and all.
Your creative hobbies and passions will experience new beginnings on August 16, as the Leo new moon takes place. As a fellow fire sign, you’re all about showcasing your abilities, but on this particular day, you’ll really feel inspired and motivated to make something that you’re proud of. This could mark the start of a new artistic project, or a moment to infuse more fun and excitement into your life. This is a time to enjoy yourself, despite how you may be perceived by others. As long as you’re following your heart, that’s all that matters.
The sun shifts into Virgo on August 23, shifting your focus to your current habits and daily routines. While you like to move at a swift pace, you strongly benefit from structure and organization in your life, which is something that will be heightened now. And, since Mercury is stationing retrograde in Virgo the same day, you’ll be feeling eager to re-evaluate how you make use of your time. Health and wellness may also be a priority, but be mindful of micro-managing yourself.
The month ends on a hopeful note, as the Pisces full moon takes place on August 30. If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, now is the perfect time to retreat into your safe space. As someone who’s always on the go, you rarely make time for allowing yourself to dream and fantasize, but on this day, you’ll be feeling particularly idealistic. Lean into the unknown today, and allow yourself to think bigger.
