August Moons 2025



August Moons 2025

🌙

I know astrology can be confusing!
Here's a little info. about retrograde planets....

Meaning of retrograde planets - reflecting on past events, decisions, and outcomes. The energy of the planet is turned inward. It's time to ask ourselves some questions… so grab a pen and paper :)

Planets currently in Retrograde

Neptune - illusion, fantasy, escape. Are Our coping mechanisms still useful? How have I played a part in my own self deception? How have I allowed others to take advantage of me?


Saturn - Boundaries, Maturity, Stability. Where do my boundaries need strengthening? Where am I making decisions out of insecurity or fear? I am reaping what I have sown, is it delicious?


Pluto - Uncovering, hidden self, Power, transformation. Am I holding onto old patterns that keep me feeling dead inside? Am I resisting becoming my butterfly stage? The dead need to be cleared away in order for new to begin.


Mercury - Communication, intelligence, business deals. How am I being heard? Why does my computer keep making mistakes, lol? Auto correct - is this really what I mean to say? Think before you sign.


🌙 And now back to our moons! 🌙

8/01 - 8/02

Moon in Scorpio

Scorpio traits: reflective, investigative, How close can I get?

This moon wants to get to the bottom of things. What is at the bottom of our home? What is hiding in the depths?


8/03 - 8/04

Moon in Sagittarius

Sagittarius traits: Freedom, truth, political

We got ourselves a fire trine people! Some passion about past events are popping up! We get some light on truths that were hidden. The truth about authority and their illusions of not getting caught is being exposed.


8/05 - 8/07

Mars (ambitious warrior) enters Libra (Social justice)

How to fight with Charm/music/make-up and flowers?

Moon in Capricorn

Capricorn traits: responsible, realistic, altruistic

Grinding grinding, on home stuff, business stuff. We feel like achieving right now. What have you started that is now ready to be born? We might hear new music/art/poetry, expressing feelings around the inhumane treatment of others.


8/08 - 8/09

Full Moon in Aquarius

Aquarius traits: Perspective, understanding, scientific

There's disruption afoot today. Our systems of communication are being disrupted for a reason. The source of comfort is home where the heart is.


8/10 - 8/11

Mercury stations direct in Leo!

Moon in Pisces

Pisces traits: Compassionate, Savior, haunted

There is a magical trine to Jupiter and Venus. The benifics of our Universe. Home/family and Compassion get a special nod at this time. This Trine is ESPECIALLY good to those of you who have water placements, in particular at degrees around 10 - 20. Lots of ideas and epiphanies around war and fairness, and humanity.. We can't fault those who want to protect their homes and families, and we can’t allow Government abuse.


8/12 - 8/13

Moon in Aries

Aries traits: Quick, takes commands, wins

This moon is competitive, charged up like an athlete. If we have been practicing good habits, and dreaming into our win you have every right to feel proud no matter the outcome. But this is like competing against your spouse. If you have not been disciplined in your thought life, you may feel convinced that your “other” is the enemy, when in reality they are your lesson. Sometimes we must fight for ourselves and let others make up their own mind.


8/14 - 8/15

Moon in Taurus

Taurus traits: Steady, unchanging, thoughtful

For sure a good time to have a family reunion! The moon loves tradition and food! You might see some couples not getting along (mars in libra), make sure to have the Gemini’s in your life ready to help change the subject. Share family history. Keep the mood light if playing games.


8/16 - 8/17

Moon in Gemini

Gemini traits: Story teller, prankster, book lover

The moon meets up with Uranus (unexpected, Hi-tech/A.I.) We may hear A.I. making up stories? Something unconventional in the storytelling / beauty/ competitive world is happening and we are talking about it. How is A.I. helpful? What damage could it do? It's a new age. I’m kinda excited!


8/18 - 8/19

Moon in Cancer

Cancer traits: protective, caring, wants to feel needed

WOW! The Moon in her home, meets up with her Besties - Venus (pleasing, creative), and Jupiter (expansive, connected). Great time to sell your home or buy one. Home projects getting the final pretty touches, or beginning her transformation. Great time to call your mom or grandma! Swimming will feel so so good!


8/20 - 8/22

Moon in Leo

Leo traits: Warm, Confident, Leader

We might be hearing from Authoritative leaders about peace! Perhaps before this time, Venus and Jupiter have been in Cancer working home stuff out. Fluctuating between a deal and no deal....Still might have some governments and peoples whom this peace will cost more than their other. But peace is very possible right now.


8/23 - 8/24

Sun enters Virgo = enlightenment around written/verbal communication, lots of talking and figuring out how to iron out the flaws.

New Moon in Virgo

Virgo traits: Data, Details, Servant of the heart

This Moon squares Uranus = unexpected hiccup in writing down the new rules.

What serves us well in our own home, may not serve in other’s homes. We must be open to how other languages and cultures experience “home”.


8/25 - 8/27

Venus enters Leo = generosity, “see me love”


Moon in Libra

Libra traits: I know what I don’t want, what do you want?

How do we express our ambition in a creative way? What art will tell the story of wanting peace and standing up for our right to independent governing? We may see our leaders showing more generosity and compassion.


8/28 - 8/29

Moon in Scorpio

Scorpio traits: at other’s expense, Clever, hidden

“Who is paying for this?” Every Scorpio wants to know. Good news, Venus in Leo is Generous, Jupiter in Cancer wants to give more. You can get anything you want if you word it right.


8/30 - 8/31

Moon in Sagittarius

Sag. traits: wants fun, freedom, truth

An unexpected lesson gives truth. Generosity is in the air. This feels good for fire and air signs. This little light of mine, I”m gonna let it shine!”
