Welcome to August, Pisces. During July, Venus, ruler of love, abundance, and beauty, went retrograde, asking all star signs to go hard on self-care. As you may know by now, you’re the final sign of the zodiac, Pisces, and, as a result, known for your wisdom. Make sure to trust your intuition when Tuesday, August 1, brings a full moon in Aquarius and your 12th House of the Unconscious. These days, it’s easy to tell ourselves we’re overreacting to our instincts. However, if your gut tells you to cancel a date, or check in on a friend, listen.
Half a lunar cycle later, Wednesday, August 16, brings a new moon in Leo and your 6th House of Health. Remember, when astrologers mention your House of Health, it’s not to make you worry about getting sick but to point your direction toward wellness. Your entire summer theme is self-care, which rings especially true in August. On Wednesday, August 23, Virgo season begins, that bustling time of the year with back-to-school energy. The influence of Virgo puts you in a productive mood, which is excellent for getting things done, but can lead to unfair guilt around rest. However, also on Wednesday, August 23, Mercury goes retrograde, bringing travel delays and awkward typos. The more you listen to your intuition and rest when your body says rest, the more you’ll get done in the long run.
