August is a hot and dry month, with two Super Full Moons this month, a time to feel the flow of your emotions. Compared to our previous confusion about defining relationships, this month will be a time of choices in relationships. With Mercury and Uranus retrograde this month, and a five-star retrograde at the end of the month, it's a good time for introspection and reflection.
The first half of August is more positive and energetic, but the conflict of values is still a cause for reflection. The Full Moon in Aquarius on August 2nd stirs up the social atmosphere, with the Virgo opposing Saturn, making people focus on the details and appear impatient or difficult to harmonize. The Sun-Lion and Venus-Lion remind us that we have the desire to do what we like, but their respective hard aspects to Jupiter and Uranus remind us not to overlook the possibility that happiness can lead to sadness.
After mid-August, it's time to show off your charisma and take advantage of it. August 24th will mark the third Mercury retrograde in Virgo this year, which won't end until September 16th. The Virgo sector encompasses life, work and health. There may be news of unpaid leave in the workplace, and special attention will need to be paid to work and health. At the end of the month, Uranus is retrograde in Taurus, and there will be news of another turnaround in the economic market. With the emotional flow of relationships and the Super Blue Moon on August 31st, we will say goodbye to an emotionally turbulent month of August.
Lucky Strengths: Socializing, Romance
Aries will embark on a lot of social activities this month, and because of their willingness to show off, they will suddenly jump onto the stage and become the new favorite. There are chances of meeting new people in your romantic life. Good things will come your way, so you might as well say good words and do good deeds to enhance your charm.
Taurus
Lucky Strengths: Growth, Charisma
Taurus is eager for growth and breakthroughs this month, and is determined to do something positive. They are interested in self-growth issues and can start to show their charisma to plan their next projects, so it's not too late to start.
Gemini
Lucky Strengths: Family, Old Acquaintances
Gemini is strongly connected to their family during this period. They may have more time to spend with each other or have a lot of things to do, so remember not to act with emotions. There are many opportunities to meet with old friends, which will bring you new ideas, so you can have more contacts and exchanges.
Cancer
Lucky Strengths: Finance, Learning
Cancer's financial luck is positive this month, either from investment income or from work bonuses. While your wealth is relatively large, your expenses are also quite substantial. Because your mind is clear, you will be more effective in your studies. If you want to learn new skills now, you will get more results with less effort.
Leo
Lucky Strengths: Challenges, Relationships
Because of Venus retrograde this month, Leos have the opportunity to reflect deeply on money issues and relationships, and face challenges and learning. The process isn't always comfortable, but it's necessary. Adjusting your values is the only way to make things or relationships more integrated.
Virgo
Lucky Strengths: Inspiration, Self-confidence
This month, under the influence of Mercury, Virgo will have a lot of inspirations and ideas coming to mind, but there's a lot of thinking and not much doing, so you'll have to take some action. The Sun's entry into Virgo brings self-confidence, but because Mercury is retrograde, there is the reality of suffering from being too smart. It's better to express yourself freely and without any intention.
Libra
Lucky Strengths: Relationships, Collaboration
Libra will have the opportunity to work with others on a new area of work or project this month, and will be able to show off their strengths with the help of others. Relationships can vary from excellent to devastating. Keep calm and go with the flow, and you won't be disturbed or hindered.
Scorpio
Lucky Strengths: Career, Relationships
Scorpio will focus a lot on their career this month. They may face challenges or have many opportunities to cooperate with each other, all of which will require careful thinking and decision making. You will make a lot of progress in your interpersonal relationships. You will make a lot of friends, but you will have to choose between the good and the bad.
Sagittarius
Lucky Strengths: Traveling, Planning
Sagittarius is feeling a little weak this month, perhaps burned out at work, and the best remedy for this is to travel or go to faraway places. If you have responsibilities that don't allow you to travel, then you might want to settle down and make a plan, put your goals in front of you, and you'll be motivated to work hard.
Capricorn
Lucky Strengths: Resources, Windfalls
Capricorn will have a lot of opportunities this month, perhaps in the investment or career field. However, there are good and bad things in between, so you have to research and select to find the right one. This month, you are lucky to have a windfall, so you can try your luck and enjoy the small fortune of life.
Aquarius
Lucky Strengths: Mobility, Benefactors
This month, Aquarius will be more active and more energetic to face the things you need to do, and will attract more benefactors to help you with your plans. Success comes naturally. Please continue to believe in your own abilities.
Pisces
Lucky Strengths: Creativity, Capabilities
Pisces will feel busy at work this month, but this busyness is fulfilling, mainly due to the appreciation and promotion of the boss, who will give you more responsibilities and tasks. It's important to show your capabilities, but you should pay attention to the tacit understanding of teamwork, so don't be overbearing.
