Hello August ☀️ A Hello, Some Horoscopes, and A Free Moon Calendar.
THE MONTH OF | AUGUST 2025
“August rain: the best of the summer gone, and the new fall not yet born. The odd uneven time.”
― Sylvia Plath
I think August is a good month for lingering—hanging back with the heat, staying up with the crickets. With autumn so close, we savor the long sunsets and backyard critters a little more than we did last week. It’s like every firefly becomes more precious because we know the cold is just around the corner—so we lean into the heat.
And this month, I hope we all lean deeper into the heat of our lives. I hope we say yes to opportunity, and no to fear. I hope we make more time and space for the people and projects we love. May we happily choose to savor the next few weeks instead of rushing through them, because there’s still plenty of fruit on the vine of summer.

8/11 - Monday - Mercury goes Direct

AUGUST MINI-SCOPES | 12 ZODIAC SIGNS
Tarot Emblemata | Nitasia Roland (Weiser Books)
Pisces: Page of Wands - “Youthful friendship and enthusiasm.”
You’ll get by with a little help from your friends this month, Pisces— and likewise, you’re natural buoyancy lifts others up, as well. August is all about finding community, kicking your shoes off, and having a spin around the dancefloor. It’s your spark that draws the magic close, so be generous with it!
Cancer: The Star - “Brightness that cannot be harmed.”
An enchanted month awaits you, Cancer, as the Universe conspires in your favor. It’s an excellent time to take your shot, reach higher, and push your little foot in the door of life. Consider the power of prayer and affirmations in fortifying your faith and confidence over the next few weeks.
Scorpio: 2 of Swords - “Ready for both.”
Whether you work in spirit or matter, learning to work both hands is crucial in becoming a master craftsman. August asks you to multitask, discern, and generally operate at a higher level than normal. You’re not just on the ball— you’re kicking it down the field, no matter the weather or terrain.
Aries: 3 of swords - “The heart has its remedy bu love has none.”
Sometimes pain or fear can hold us in place. We must create from a place of faith and self-love, or else we may fall victim to our own self-fulfilling prophecy. Share some of the weight with nature, invite grounding energies into your life, and remember that what goes down, eventually comes up, too.
Leo: The Devil - “Cowardice and fear.”
When what we own begins to own us, it’s time to rebalance the scales between our spiritual life and material world. Consider the coping mechanisms and unconscious patterns pushing you out of alignment. And don’t be afraid to rid yourself of anyone who’s a negative influence.
Sagittarius: Libations - “Hence the light and sacred draughts.”
August is a month for ceremony, offering, and ritual. If your altar has run cold, it’s a great time to reconnect with you angels and ancestors. If you’ve neglected your own TLC, then the offerings must extend to you, first. Let yourself receive no soul unwilling to lay love or loyalty at your feet.
Taurus: 8 of cups - “Nothing is more, more is nothing.”
Heavy wears the crown and this month you’re seriously considering leaving the monarchy for a cottage in the woods. Notice where your efforts are not received or appreciated— where do your pearls feel thrown to swine? Give yourself permission to cut ties with anything that diminishes you.
Virgo: King of Wands - “I nourish, and I extinguish.”
You’re a natural world-builder, Virgo, and August gives you an opportunity to start filling that universe with patrons. It’s time to stretch your wings and test the limits of your creativity, networking, and spiritual skill. Lean into the privilege of pressure, making use of every opportunity for expansion.
Capricorn: The Lovers - “Together and forever.”
You cannot serve two masters, Capricorn, so this month it’s time to narrow down priorities and focus on what counts. Commit to only investing in what brings you a sense of integrity, pride, and pleasure. What moves the needle forward? How can you honor your highest potential?
Gemini: High Priestess- “Being a lone woman, I follow the Creator alone.”
The High Priestess ushers you into an introspective month full of feeling, sensing, and intuiting. Your spiritual world is undergoing an upgrade and you’ll likely feel drawn to new or deepened studies in some key area. Be receptive to where the magic naturally leads you.
Libra: 2 of Wands - “Undertaking such high things.”
It’s a month of mind over matter, Libra. You’ll make tremendous progress, but only if you take a confident and confrontational stance. You must tackle life head-on, not fearing adjustments or new routes forward. Make sure you’re utilizing social media to the best of your ability.
Aquarius: The Sun - “This age knoweth the Creator aright.”
This August is asking you to hold the line when it comes to your integrity and dreams, Aqua. You know what feels right, what feels like God, what feels like art— don’t settle or retreat into performance or superficiality when you’ve really got the goods.
