Daily Horoscopes/Astro Highlights for each Sign:

Aries

Mars turns direct today, dear Aries and this is especially good news for your sign (Mars is your planetary ruler). Mind you, this past retrograde period has likely been useful for redirecting you along better paths. In the weeks ahead, career matters can improve, whether this has to do with conditions, clarity, or confidence in your work and your broader goals. Blocks lift, and you are working more on your own terms. There should be a stronger sense of direction and more time spent on moving things forward as you head into September. Your best bet now is to avoid seeking instant results. The coming week of August is excellent for coming to a better work-life balance. Ease into this new phase. Today, a Mercury-Jupiter square coming into influence can point to new or innovative thinking and conversations about love, creative projects, and possibly children. You might jump upon a new idea, and, in your excitement, forget about the practical details required for its realization. Listen to your creative ideas and inspirations, but keep your feet on the ground.

Taurus

Today’s direct turn of Mars points to a turning point or signal forward movement for studies, projects, publishing efforts, career, your reputation, legal affairs, or travel for you, dear Taurus. If you’ve encountered difficulties or delays with your career path or status, these matters are likely to clear up starting mid-September forward. Courage, confidence, and clarity are returning, starting today! Projects and personal interests can bring greater rewards. Don’t try to take on too much all at once, however. Easing forward is best after a retrograde period. This comes at a time when your social or romantic life is picking up the pace, and you’re naturally coming out of an introspective period. Today, watch for talks that are impractical or exaggerated. You might take things quite personally right now.

Gemini

Mars turns direct today after two months of retrograde motion, dear Gemini, marking a nice turning point. Complexities begin to unravel, mainly related to finances or dealings with a partner. You’ll appreciate a more straightforward approach to these matters (and life, in general) after a feeling of treading water. You’ll have more energy and direction in the coming weeks. Soon enough, you get the chance to work through issues related to studies or travel that were in limbo. Use the period ahead to face problems directly and courageously, but ease back into action. Today, mental restlessness can lead to positive experiences if it motivates you to seek out new and interesting information or interests. Discipline, however, can be lacking if you are required to focus on dry or monotonous work today. It may be all too easy to waste time now.

Cancer

Mars turns direct today, dear Cancer, ending its two-month retrograde and helping you clarify your desires. Life begins to smooth or straighten out, and ideally, you now have a better sense of what you want (and don’t). Mars is still in opposition to your sign until September 10th, and while straightforwardly dealing with others may have been challenging recently, relationship dynamics smooth over and problems can be dealt with more directly going forward. Some fireworks may be involved, but resolutions are also in the pipeline. Money-making projects are likely to pick up speed, especially those that involve a business partnership. The desire to move forward on a relationship matter can be intense, or you feel that you now have the psychological tools or enough information to go ahead. Ease back into action now for best results! Today, ideas may be visionary, but there’s a tendency to think too big or to want to jump ahead when a slow roll is far more strategic. Give your imagination a nice stretch, but save big efforts for later.

Leo

Mars turns direct today after two months of retrograde motion, dear Leo, and while the shift itself can be a little chaotic and confusing, you’ll begin to see slow but sure progress in partnerships and with work and health endeavors in the coming weeks. You can feel that you’re turning a corner now, particularly with work and relationships, and soon you’ll be ready to make decisions and take action that you’ve been mulling over. In fact, late summer and early Fall are excellent for second chances in these areas. Ease yourself into new beginnings. Today, a Mercury-Jupiter influence can be inspiring but may convince you that you should jump into a new project too quickly. Watch for exaggeration and for attempts to score intellectual points which may come at a price. You might decide to enjoy the mental exercise of thinking up possibilities without banking on them just yet for best results now.

Virgo

Mars ends its retrograde cycle today, dear Virgo, turning direct in your romance and creativity sector. This means you’ll begin to see forward movement with creative pursuits and in your dating life, and later, with your work and health. The weeks ahead are excellent for getting things back on track. Ideally, you’ve discovered areas where your approach or methods can do with some improvement, and now you’re ready to make changes. You also benefit from exceptionally clear thinking now–something that will stick with you into September and help you make the right choices and moves in your birthday month. Today, a Mercury-Jupiter square can convince you that you need to jump into something too quickly. Instead, think big, but put an idea on hold until you’ve fleshed out all the details.

Libra

Mars has been retrograde for two months, dear Libra, and ideally, any delays you encountered have rerouted you in helpful ways. Today, Mars turns direct, and you’ll enjoy more clarity about home, family, romance, and creative projects over the coming weeks. A venture might pick up the pace, reach a turning point, or resume now. Desires are clearer, and you feel more confident about new launches and new beginnings. You’ll find that people are more straightforward now, and this is refreshing after a period of limbo. Today, a Mercury-Jupiter influence can incline us to spend a little too much time talking or thinking about matters that are unlikely to go anywhere. This is just fine if you enjoy the process, but it’s best not to put all your eggs in one basket based solely on what comes up today.

Scorpio

Mars turns direct today after two months of retrograde motion, dear Scorpio, and like yesterday’s Full Moon, signals a turning point. Things that you’ve pushed to the side, ignored, or delayed can seem overwhelming now, but in the coming days and weeks, you’ll get to move these things forward. Blockages are lifting! Recent transportation and communication problems are sorting out, as well. Take things slowly but surely, and if you find yourself regretting recent decisions, work on fixing them one step at a time. Today’s Mercury-Jupiter square can incline us to say too much or jump ahead of ourselves with our ideas and plans. Avoid sweeping decisions that come on suddenly and impulsively for best results. Career matters are a little complicated, but also quite fresh and exciting — aim to take things slowly and ease into action.

Sagittarius

Mars turns direct today after approximately two months of retrograde motion, dear Sagittarius, and can point to a turnaround in financial and business-related areas. Ultimately this will help you resolve problems related to studies or paperwork. Your desires become plainer and clearer to you going forward. While you likely benefited from some slowing down, this is good news for forward-looking, direct, and spontaneous living — your favorite style and approach! Motivation and confidence build now and this week. Today, though, a Mercury-Jupiter square can incline you to overdo. You may be excited about sharing your thoughts, ideas, or beliefs, and they can be very inspiring, but it’s best not to make promises based on the elevated mood of the moment. You may come up with something special today that will need fine-tuning later. Keeping two feet on the ground makes sense now.

Capricorn

Mars ends its retrograde period and turns direct today, dear Capricorn, and in the coming weeks, you’ll be building your resolve and pushing personal plans and projects forward. Energy and motivation levels increase as plans of action seem more straightforward. You’re clearer about what you desire, and this simplifies a whole lot! You regain energy and drive, and the rewards for your efforts are more evident and motivating. This doesn’t happen all at once. In fact, the transition period may be tricky, so take things slowly for now. Decisions shouldn’t be rushed. With a Mercury-Jupiter square influencing today especially, you may want to be on the lookout for missing important, practical details. There is no need to jump into something, even if it feels exciting now.

Aquarius

Mars turns direct after two months of retrograde motion, dear Aquarius, and desires become clearer. You’re less inclined to hold onto resentments, and while further inner work is necessary, it’s clearer what that is now! Mars will continue to stay in the background of your solar chart, directing your attention behind the scenes for a while longer, but when Mars does re-enter your sign on September 10th, you’ll be raring to go. This is a good time for self-improvement programs, volunteer work, and talking through problems with a trusted person in your life. Take decisions slowly and ease yourself back into action for best results. Today, though, a Mercury-Jupiter square can make it feel like you should rush a decision. Avoid rushing through paperwork and conversations, but give your imagination some exercise. This influence is good for encouraging us to think in bigger terms, which introduces us to new possibilities.

Pisces

Mars turns direct today after retrograde motion for two months, dear Pisces, and just like yesterday’s Full Moon, it marks a turning point. In the coming weeks, you’ll be clearer about your desires and needs. Friendships might straighten out, and emotional complications seem to sort out, too. You’re learning who is indeed in your corner, and your desires and affections clarify. It’s better not to expect immediate results, but have faith that slowly but surely, you’ll get where you want to go. A less complicated existence is certainly something you need right now. Today, the Moon spends all day in your sign, encouraging your more colorful emotions. A Mercury-Jupiter square does incline us to exaggerate or waste time, though, but if you avoid investing too much energy or hope in plans that come on suddenly, you can make the most of it. In fact, some great ideas can come out of mental restlessness. Enjoy new ideas that excite and motivate you now.

Strong Signs, Elements, Modes

 

Today’s Emphasized Signs of the Zodiac

 

VIRGO STRONG

Meticulous, discriminating, pure, practical, health conscious, hard working. Can be hyper-critical, petty and perfectionistic.

CAPRICORN STRONG

Disciplined, responsible, reliable, industrious, conscientious, practical, achieving. Can be pessimistic, overly conventional, rigid, materialistic, callous.

PISCES STRONG

Compassionate, sensitive, self-sacrificing, gentle, intuitive. Can be escapist, impractical, hyper- sensitive, gullible.

 

Today’s Elemental Balance

 

FIRE WEAK

We are not very goal-oriented right now, or motivation to pursue our goals may be waning/lacking. Changes feel overwhelming. Enthusiasm may be low, we argue less, and we think more than we take action.

EARTH STRONG

Earth signs are Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn. We are especially in touch with the physical world. We consider what we’ve learned and experienced in the past in order to make the most of the present. We can be cautious, practical, and possibly unimaginative. We are deliberate and can pace ourselves well. We need hands-on experience and are not impressed with theory as much as we are with results. Routines are tolerable and comforting.

AIR WEAK

We may have a difficult time being objective or detached. We may not be especially communicative.

 

Today’s Modal Balance

 

The modes are balanced.

 

Today’s Lunar Phase

 

LUNAR PHASE: FULL MOON

Moon 180 to 135 degrees behind the Sun. 

We are concerned mainly with the nature of relationships and are made aware of recent imbalances. Something can come to fruition. Our concern is not limited to personal relationships, but relationships of all kinds. Our cards are on the table.

 

The following aspects (major only) and positions are at noon (EDT) on August 27th:

Note that when an aspect is applying, it has not yet happened but is within orb – it’s pending. When an aspect is separating, it has already happened/perfected and is moving away from the aspect. Depending on the speed of the planet/body involved, the aspect will have perfected–or will perfect–in a matter of hours (often the case with the Moon), days, months, and possibly years in the case of the very slow-moving outer planets and bodies.

Note that the Moon moves at a rate of approximately one degree every 2 hours so that if an aspect involving the Moon is applying and has an orb of 5 degrees, the aspect will perfect (be exact) in about 10 hours. If the Moon is separating from an aspect with an orb of 2 degrees, it has already formed said aspect approximately 4 hours ago (since the following are positions at noon today, then it would have occurred at about 8 AM today).

**I suggest paying close attention to applying aspects. The energy of the aspect builds as it gets closer to exact. Once an aspect involving inner planets has happened, it’s over. Separating aspects are good to know for context, but in terms of energy that is with us today, applying aspects are most important. (This is the case for daily astrology influences involving inner planets, which pass quickly, and not natal astrology aspects, which are with us for a lifetime).
